Ritual substitution is a process in which one object replaces another for the purpose of a ritual. An expendable object may be substituted for a valuable one: for instance, the Nuer tribe of southern Sudan used cucumbers to replace valuable oxen in sacrificial rituals. [1] In other rites, people may represent gods or other people; for instance, in a séance the medium may act as a ritual substitute for the dead person with whom communication is attempted.
Worklist
| Article | Status |
| Jean-Jacques Rousseau | Biography is not bad, but needs polishing. The theory sections are quite shabby. Also needs a good cleanup and check for latent vandalism. |
| Pittsburgh | Yet to be evaluated. |
| Federalist Papers | About at the good article stage; needs more work to be fully comprehensive and needs more variety of sources, but currently gives a solid overview of the topic. Well-referenced, writing alright. |
| Discourse on the Arts and Sciences | Just started; may be an easier place to begin the Rousseau canon than with the main article. Needs some research to check on important commentators. |
| Shady Side Academy | Could use some free pictures when I get a chance. Also need to check local libraries for books on the district that may be good sources. |
| Nuclear strategy | Needs major expansion, though there are many helpful potential subpages defining specific terms that are available already. |

The articles were written by James Madison, Alexander Hamilton, and John Jay and were published in 1788. The authorship of some of the papers is disputed and is difficult to settle conclusively since all the essays were written under the same pseudonym, Publius. The table below follows the modern scholarly consensus as to authorship. The date given is that of the first publication in a newspaper.[2]
