As for majority required, I would say something more than 50% should be necessary. We traditionally favour the status quo in pretty much everything we do (except, for some reason, with the 3RR, I've never understood that... but that's a discussion for another time and place). Also, if we say 50% is all that's required and the result comes out as 50.3% or something, you should know it's going to cause massive drama (if we chose 60% and the results is 60.3% there is still going to be plenty of drama, of course, but hopefully less). I'd go with a requirement of 60%, but that's really just a number plucked out of thin air, I welcome suggestions from people with actual reasons!
I'd say 100%, because you shouldn't purport to take away someone's right to attribution without their permission.
