-===== 2008 Wiki Task Force Bill =====
+===== 2008 Wiki Task Force Act =====
 ==== Overview ====
-The first piece of legislation proposed and passed in the 2008 Parliament of AH.com, the 2008 Wiki Task Force Bill was a reintroduction of the previous [[Wiki Task Force Bill]], amended to reflect the recent appointments of Minister of General Wikiness [[Jasen777]] (FFF) and Minister of Legislative Wikiness [[Pkmatrix]] (YSP).  The bill itself establishes a new “Wiki Task Force” – a special team with the goal of cleaning up and organizing the AH.com wiki.

 [[Susano]] (FFF) proposed a significantly different draft, changing Article II, Section 3 to "The Task Force may also initiate own initiatives and rallies to improve the Wiki in quality or quantity, and to that end may call for volunteers.", and entirely replacing Douglas' version of Article III with specified limits on the Wiki Task Force's powers.  Demosthenes (E), [[Nekromans]] (YSP), and [[TheDarkServant]] (E) supported this proposal.
