I think there should definitely be a place for discussing vetting constraints. My only uncertainty is whether this should be done in a separate article and, if so, whether talent vs. funding constraints should be split. Conditional on having an article on vetting constraints, it looks to me that we should also have articles on talent constraints and funding constraints. Alternatively, we could have a single article discussing all of these constraints.
I think I agree that we should either have three separate entries or one entry covering all three. I’m not sure which of those I lean towards, but maybe very weakly towards the latter?
Mmh, upon looking at Vaidehi’s list more closely, it now seems to me that we should have a single article: people have proposed various other constraints besides the three mentioned, and I don’t think it would make sense to have separate articles for each of these, or to have an additional article for “other constraints”. So I propose renaming talent vs. funding constraintsconstraints in effective altruism. Thoughts?
Done. (Though I used the name constraints on effective altruism, which seemed more accurate. I don’t have strong views on whether the preposition should be ‘in’ or ‘on’, however, so feel free to change it.)
The article should be substantially revised (it was imported from EA Concepts), I think, but at least its scope is now better defined.
Great. Let’s have three articles then. Feel free to split the existing one, otherwise I’ll do that tomorrow. [I know you like this kind of framing. ;) ]

Just discovered Vaidehi made a collection of discussions of constraints in EA, which could be helpful for populating whatever entries get created and maybe for deciding on scopes etc.

I think that that probably makes sense.
