== Older Requests==
* [[Affect (psychology)]]
* [[open source licenses]] (GPL, LGPL, BSD, Mozilla, etc.) - requested by [[User:Greg Woodhouse|Greg Woodhouse]]
* [[philately]] - requested by [[User:Julian Hablé|Julian Halé]]
* [[political spectrum]] - requested by [[User:Matthew Cornell Woods, Jr.|Matthew Woods]]
*: Besides giving examples of other spectrums out there, I propose that we order political beliefs into a three-axis table based on the following properties: economic freedom, political freedom, and social freedom.  I'd also like to see tables where variants of the same belief are compared to each other.
*: Response from [[User:Bruce M.Tindall|Bruce M.Tindall]] 18:06, 21 November 2007 (CST): Ah, but it might be difficult to do so in an objective way.  One person's "high degree of economic freedom" is another person's "low degree of social justice"; "high social freedom" might be described as "low social order" or "low public safety" by someone else.  The choice and naming of the axes for such a scheme right away implies a system and hierarchy of values.  There's also the question of which axes are left out: is there a dimension for measuring, say, the relative powers or duties belonging to different groupings of people (individuals, families, "races," nation-states and their political subdivisions, genders, voluntary organizations, etc.)?  After all, in the U.S., the 50 states have considerable sovereignty in certain areas; in other countries, power is more centralized; so there's yet another dimension of the political spectrum (probably not describable as any kind of "freedom") right there.
