This process only applies to the specific components that are being simultaneously edited. Other amended components that do not have edits in simultaneous proposals may be merged, unless they are dependent on the component that does have simultaneous edits. The process is as follows: + +- Where simultaneous edits are _non-conflicting, logically compatible_, Governance Facilitators will consolidate them into a single edit either by stitching them together in the affected component or by stringing one after the other as a new component. Any action taken by the Governance Facilitators in this regard will be documented publicly and preferably be available prior to the end date of the relevant ratification polls. +- Where simultaneous edits are _conflicting, logically incompatible_ and cannot be coherently reconciled, it falls to voters to decide which of the conflicting subproposals they wish to accept. If there are two conflicting subproposals, a subsequent binary vote is appropriate. In the event there are more than two conflicting subproposals, the Governance Facilitators may choose a suitable polling method that allows voters to choose between multiple options. The difference between the conflicting amendments must be clearly presented so that voters can make an informed choice on their preferred option. + +Any poll resulting from MIP102c4 will take place during the Weekly Governance Cycle immediately following the closure of the ratification polls and last for three days.
