User Vetting (hypothetical example)
* The Wikipedia Model: Anyone in the world can become a vendor, set up shop and add/market/sell items. Items that appear illegal or are illegal can be flagged by a user on Particl and voting can take place to vet the item. If enough votes deem this item illegal or unsafe, whatever, the item is removed from the marketplace.
How will Particl users see these flaggs or voting bills? Some sort of Push Notification? I have read somewere that this "delist" votings could be tied to "countdown period" you have any more details on that?

Remember that this is still hypothetical, as in we're working through models.
Listings could begin in a 1 hour holding period let's say. So before they go live they have 1 hour in a holding pin that stakeholders can search through and flag or vote on questionable listings. Thresholds would need to be setup and protocol for informing a vendor if the listing was not allowed to post on the marketplace.
Reputation would play a part in this voting scheme too. Users (either vendors or sellers) could remove listings they felt were harmful or dangerous to the integrity of the marketplace platform. Precautions would need to be established to dissuade vendors from playing a long game to built good rep and then sabotage the marketplace, such as listings being able to be removed even if they pass the 1 hour litmus test. Also discouraging teams of people to work together and swing the system.
In the Particl Market the seller will pay a fee to list. It's small but it's set up to discourage repeatedly spamming the market with junk listings.
Items that appear illegal or are illegal can be flagged by a user on Particl and voting can take place to vet the item. If enough votes deem this item illegal or unsafe, whatever, the item is removed from the marketplace.
Are votes weighted by user count or by their PART holdings? How PARTs are involved in voting? Can user vote with zero PART?
In order to vote you'd need PART. It's a utility/protocol token with many value propositions:
- listing privilege (being a vendor)
- passive income (staking coins on a node)
- voting privilege (governance)
