The
List and Auxiliary List Overview
I.
Defining The List and Auxiliary List of Most Wanted
Solutions
As a general rule, out of the
five (5) "Core" sections of our
publication,
1. The
RealDeal® Foundational Inquiries;
2. The RealDeal® Theoretical Studies;
3. The RealDeal® Discovery Reports;
4. The RealDeal® Focus Line:
Science vs. Society, Religion; and
5. The RealDeal® Historical
Scrutinies.
only Issues for Debates from
the first three section listed will receive further
scrutiny, attention, and consideration. Out of these
Issues of Debates, the most intransigent ones which were
not able to be resolved during the normal course of
debates (as outlined in the Issues for Debates HomePage
site) shall be transferred, as a general rule, to The
List or Auxiliary List of Most Wanted Solutions following
this simple criteria: if the Issue in question is from
the Foundational Inquiries section it shall be placed in
the List, if not in the Auxiliary List provided that if
the Issue in question is from the Theoretical Studies
section whose subject is general enough to transcend to
other subjects or fields, the said unresolved Issue shall
be placed in The List rather than in The Auxiliary List
of Most Wanted Solutions.
Once placed in The List or
Auxiliary List, an Issue for Debates shall be elevated
and considered to be extraordinary both in its depth and
in its importance for the subject at hand. An Issue in
the List or Auxiliary List indicates first and foremost
that it needs to be handled and approached radically
different than it was handled before, and that in all
likelihood will need the attention of a new generation of
scholars.
When someone is interested in
opening an Issue from the List or Auxiliary List either
to suggest a new approach or to present the solution
itself, a written
Application to Open
the List (or the Auxiliary
List) needs to be
submitted outlining the exact nature and reasoning for
seeking the opening of the Issue at hand. Should such an
Application be weak in its arguments presented it shall
be rejected with or without comment. Should, on the other
hand, the Application appear to have merit, it shall be
accepted and the author(s) be notified accordingly
forthwith. Upon receiving such notification, the author
(or authors) needs (or need) to submit as soon as
possible the article in support of the Application
dealing with the solution or the proposed new approach to
the issue at hand. If the submitted article appears to
back up the Application to Open The List or The Auxiliary
List, then both these two (2) papers shall be
published simultaneously in
The Hall of Fame
Forum of Debates
associated with the respective Field (Physics, Astronomy,
etc.) to which the issue in question belongs. A mandatory
one (1) year stay shall be imposed on each and every
Issue entering the Hall of Fame Forum. During this time
the respective Issue may be subjected to selected
critical reviews. At the end of the year, we shall
publish a document entitled Report on the State of the
Issue where we shall review the status of the Issue
in question in relationship to the critical reviews
received over the past year.
If no serious opposition was
able to be mounted, the Issue shall be removed from the
List or Auxiliary List and placed into
The Hall of Fame of
Most Wanted
Solutions. The name,
if not anonymous, of the author(s) submitting the
solution to the Issue at hand shall be placed in our
Hall of Fame List of
Laureates and they
will receive our highest merit award entitled
The RealDeal
Citation of High Merit and Exceptional
Distinction.
Should, on the other hand,
over the past year credible opposition was able to be
mounted, this will be noted in our stated Report on
the State of the Issue and, at that time one of these
two (2) actions can be taken: either the solution
offered shall be dismissed, or the said issue shall
extend its stay for another two (2) years of
scrutiny in the Hall of Fame Forum of Debates. At the end
of the 2-year extension time, we shall issue a new report
entitled The 2nd Report on the State of the Issue.
Should lingering questions still persist with respect to
the solution provided and, if needed, modified, then the
said solution --in its latest form of presentation will
be dismissed. Should, on the other hand, the lingering
problems and objections with respect to the solution at
hand no longer pose a credible challenge, the said
solution will finally enter into the Hall of Fame of Most
Wanted Solutions and its author(s) shall receive our
highest achievement award --the RealDeal Citation
of High Merit and Exceptional Distinction.
II. Direct
Admission of an Issue for Debates into The List or
Auxiliary List of Most Wanted Solutions.
In special
circumstances, and in the interest of the subject at
hand, we, at our own initiative, can transfer (with or
without comment) a posted Issue for Debates, irrespective
of the phase of debate that it may be in, directly to The
Hall of Fame Forum of Debates and place the said issue
into the List or Auxiliary List of Most Wanted Solutions
according to the type of issue involved.
Notwithstanding our general
rule of not allowing unresolved issues from the Focus
Line and Historical Scrutinies sections to further be
studied and elevated into reaching The List or Auxiliary
List of Most Wanted Solutions for additional reviews and
consideration, in special circumstances however, in the
interest of the subject at hand, a participant, through a
written Application to Grant an Exception, may
show merit and good cause for bringing such an issue to
The List or Auxiliary List. In such a situation, upon
such show of merit, exception to the said rule shall be
enforced and the said Application shall be
granted.
III. How
The List and Auxiliary List is Being
Organized
A subject, say the Magnetic Field, can have a number of
issues and questions posted in The List and also can have
issues and questions posted in The Auxiliary List.
Sometimes an issue or question from The List of a subject
may be intimately connected to one or more issues or
questions from The Auxiliary List of the respective
subject and/or vice versa. It is therefore natural to
group together all issues and questions of a subject for
both The List and The Auxiliary List. Since each subject
is part of a main topic or a subtopic, a corresponding
hierarchical structure will follow in the organization of
our List and Auxiliary List. Finally, should situations
occur when a subject belongs to more than one field
[say, for instance, to Physics and to Astronomy, as
in the case for the Magnetic Field subject where aside
from questions from Physics, astronomical questions
relating to the magnetic fields of the Sun, the Earth
(and perhaps of other celestial objects) may also
exist], then, in such situations, all affected fields
shall have in their List or Auxiliary List the
comprehensive listing with respect to the totality of the
subject at hand.
All questions and issues
posted in The List and Auxiliary List have in their left
site a Magnifying-Glass Icon which is designed to act as
a button. Upon clicking on it, you will be directed to a
page, where you will have an in-depth description of the
issue at hand as well as its history of how it got here
in our List or Auxiliary list of Most Wanted Solutions.
Finally, a subject title with respect to an Issue is
flanked, at each side, by an Icon denoting an Open
Folder. By clicking on that Folder-Icon, you will reach
the respective Subject Reference Folder where you will
have at your fingertips everything that we have published
with respect to that subject, from letters to
comprehensive studies.
Additional information shall
be posted here, as needed, with respect to The List and
Auxiliary List of Most Wanted Solutions.
