Yes, it's messy on ML. My points where: - a call to vote is easily drowned out on the ML with all the noise - editting votes on a wiki can too easily be manipulated (I could just change your votes, and there would be no trail). And IMO, those two things should be sorted out before we "decide" to do votes by editting some page on some wiki.
