Having a list of EA-related or EA-adjacent motions can be good, but if the goal is to make them usable at tournaments for parliamentary debate (the format with new resolutions each round, with each resolution announced only 15–25 minutes before the round) then the full list probably needs to not be public, so that some teams don’t have foreknowledge of potential motions.
Alternatively, if the resolutions are meant for different debate formats or for practice or special tournaments, it might be fine to make it fully public.
Interesting: then, maybe, a public document should be available for practice and tournament organizers able to ask for a few ‘vetted—e. g. synthesizing debaters’ and coaches’ feedback on the practice motions (and responding to current issues and their developments)′ ones prior to the contests (agreeing that they will not share them publicly).
Would any teams benefit also from a database of EA-related motions, such as these ones? (Are you aware of any other ones?)
