You're a programmer I think you said? I think of the MemeTank as a program. The Template sections are states attached to each meme article so the memes can be compared and correlated and various judgements can be made about these memes. The status section is key to guaging who believes this. I'm about to add "quality" because we need a place to guage the worth of certain memes. Where it differs is that the CPU, the editors, are smart, they only need very loose guides to construct complicated ideas, of course. But by having the template we create some standards for the way the meme is described. Voluntary, of course, if no one adds those sections. We can then also more easily use an actual program to do correlations.

Any meme that has survived in the real world is worth studying in some respect because trying to make a meme work is like trying to make a living thing. We have evidence it can be done, sometimes the press says something that seems to resonate and create a meme. I'm not sure they are not just expressing the meme, these feeling arrive such that a lot of people think they are getting to their own conclusion, sometimes they are things that have become obvious to a lot of people at once.

We can use a "vote:" name convention to use as a voting namespace where we can vote on various aspects of these sorts of ideas for methodology.
