    • Medium format

For the following terms I suggest that we not use the names as WikiNames but make a page explaining the broader concept: 

• Voting:

• HowVotingWorks

• Editing:

• HowEditingWorks

We also have HowAnnotationsWork and HowMusicBrainzWorks. These should probably be used for detailed explanations, with other WikiNames used for more basic explanations.
