Clarification
Hey all. I want to get your opinions on tweak nominations. If you were absent during the voting of a charart, but you're either the OA or you redid it, and nobody has claimed the image for themself, do you think it would be acceptable for the person to add (Reserved to User so-and-so until "date one week away")? Not to any charart because then anybody could claim any image they wanted for themselves and abuse the power, but I think it would be fair if it's your image. Of course, this does apply to me wanting my two Yellowfang images, but I want it for everybody, not just me. Input? :)  21:45, October 8, 2012 (UTC)

I think it's acceptable. If you're the OA and you didn't get a chance to claim your images because you were away, you should have every right to claim it. In cases of tweaks, it would be a lot easier, since more often than not, the user tweaking doesn't have the original file, while the OA /would/. I see no issues with it.

Page Grading
Yo guys.

Just wanted to point out something that has been bugging me for a while. How exactly are pages graded by this project? No one I've asked seems to know. Is there even a point to grading the pages via this project? Chararts change so often (not that that's a bad thing) that accurately grading any page based on chararts would be very difficult, to say the least.

Anyway, I think that this aspect of the project needs to be examined and either eliminated or explained in way that everyone can understand, since obviously not many do. Pages have these grades randomly at the moment. 01:34, October 12, 2012 (UTC)

They're actually not random. I've been going around changing them because it seems to have been lost over the ages.

"Planned" is for pages that have no image yet or will never get one.

"Started" is for pages whose first/only image is up for approval.

"Bronze" is for pages who will get more than one image, and one or more (as long as it's not all) of their images is approved.

"Silver" is for pages who have all their images.

"Gold" is for pages that are featured on the front page.

I thought this was written down somewhere... I remember seeing it. 01:38, October 12, 2012 (UTC)

But in that case grading will hav to be chaned all the time. And the gold grade reasoning gets me. This project doesn't decide which chararts are featured on the front page, PC does. Chararts aren't put up based on their merit, they're put up based on the merit of the article they're in. At the very least, the reasoning for gold grades should be changed. 01:43, October 12, 2012 (UTC)

Hey, don't tell me. I didn't come up with them. Personally, I think planned-silver are good ideas; changing the grading doesn't really bother me at all. But changing gold would be complicated... We can't really decide which chararts are worthy of "gold". 01:47, October 12, 2012 (UTC)

Exactly. That's my point. There's no way to do it. We can't even know for certain when an article has all of its images since the series is still ongoing. 01:49, October 12, 2012 (UTC)

I need to say something about the Gold rank. A an article can only get gold ranking for charart if and only if they were gold ranking without being featured as a content drive.

Yes, and pretty much the only way that can happen is if they're featured on the front page. I've never seen a page featured elsewhere. 02:04, October 12, 2012 (UTC)

Hmm.... you know, it's explained on the main page, you are aware of that, correct?

Yes, but those explinations make no sense. Chararts cannot be featured because PCA doesn't have a feature section on the front page of the wiki. And it makes no sense for PCA to grade articles based on decisions PC makes. 17:31, October 12, 2012 (UTC)

They're featured when the PC article goes on the main page. It's pretty simple, really. You want a charart of yours to be featured, perhaps go to PC, work on its article, and nominate it for gold when we discuss the FA for the following month. It makes perfect sense to me.

Lead in charge of Characters Needing Art page
Not very good at conjuring up long paragraphs for explanations lol. Okay so like, the characters needing art page is actually going to be used when DotC comes out. Shocking I know. So a lazy, flooding monkey thinks that someone should be in charge of it. It would say the user's name like it does for the project news and it could be all like "So-and-so is in charge of the Characters Needing Art page. Contact so-and-so if you have any questions through their talk page" or something like that. I could do this if it's alright with you guys (or if the idea even passes in the first place lol). Thoughts? 04:53, 13, 10, 2012

I think it's a good idea and it'll help us out~ 00:18, October 14, 2012 (UTC)

It'll keep us organized through the chaos, and extra help is great. I'm all for it. 23:58, October 14, 2012 (UTC)

Yeah, thanks for bringing this up! Stormy I'm messing with you ♥ 01:10, October 17, 2012 (UTC)
