Resolves to Yes if Manifold prohibits users from

  1. Creating an identical market by copying the market description of another market OR

  2. Creating a similar market that uses highly similar wordings as the market description of another market

before the end of 2023.

Otherwise resolves to No.

The rule has to been written in the community guideline to count towards the resolution. A comment by a Manifold employee on some market or Discord do no suffice.

the main check against duplicative markets should be an economic one: It should cost more to create the market than the expected value of the unique trader bonuses.

@JonathanRay Then people wouldn't create many markets.

@IsaacKing People would only create markets expected to get more than 10 (formerly 5) traders unless they have a particular interest in finding out the answer. If ever the site feels too spammy in terms of large numbers of low quality markets, the obvious answer is to increase the cost so they need N>10 traders to break even

I'm bound to give this market a like
