Thanks for drafting.  

I agree with John.  I like the updates draft.  I made a few *minor* wiki
changes, feel free to revert if desired.  This new draft feels less like
two distinct pages, and more like something that developed on its own.
This might be more reflective of my reading style, but I'm trying to
think of ways to organize the "Providing feedback" content in a way that
is easy to scan/reference content.  

I was thinking about organizing your existing "Providing feedback"
content into 3 sub-sections:

== Providing feedback ==
...
=== Negative karma ===
...
=== Neutral karma ===
...
=== Positive karma ===
...

You have some good examples for the appropriate type of feedback.  It
might seem obvious to some, but it's not always clear what type of
feedback to give.  Does this clutter your draft too much?  You are more
adept at organizing wiki content, so I trust your instincts.

Thanks,
James
