We used to have an FBC page on Wikipedia, based on content from Russ' site I believe, but eventually this was removed since the notability is unclear. The big difference between ABucklin and MJ is that in the former, raising and lowering a candidate can alter the stage at which other candidates attain majority. It occurred to me that it could happen that if you change A>B>C>D>E to A=D>B>C>E This could probably move the win from B to C or E. But then you could just top-rank B to prevent it. Kevin
