All Citizens, including officials regardless of position or status, shall be bound by this Charter, and no referendum or decision of any council or official shall contravene it.
In cases where local, regional, national, or international law voids or limits clauses of this charter, all other clauses of this charter shall still be effectual and be interpreted consistent with law. For example but not as a limitation, Citizens under this Charter shall not be discriminated against on the basis of their age but many nations have laws regarding juvenile or under-age participation online. Such clauses in this charter shall be interpreted consistent with the law.

- What about future amendments.. should we take them into consideration by stating something like the "Charter and future amendments"? D. Matt Innis 21:28, 17 July 2010 (UTC)

- If we are to have examples in the Charter, that one about the age limit is probably a very good candidate. However, I think we should not have examples in there. --Daniel Mietchen 23:06, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
- That's fine with me. Russell D. Jones 23:34, 19 July 2010 (UTC)

- Apart from the ugly "and/or", I agree. What about replacing "this Charter and/or its amendments" with "this Charter, including its amendments"? --Daniel Mietchen 07:42, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
- Yes, that's the meaning we want, I think. Agree. -Joe Quick 13:45, 21 July 2010 (UTC)
- Sure. Agree. D. Matt Innis 14:39, 21 July 2010 (UTC)

There was a typo above. The phrase "including officials" was deleted in earlier versions of this draft, but was not struck in the later versions. I added the article without the phrase. If this bothers a charter member, red-light it and we'll come back. Russell D. Jones 16:19, 21 July 2010 (UTC)
