Create a new core rule “Drafts,†with the text:
Any Player may post an entry in the “Draft†category. The Body and Flavour Text of a Draft may be edited by its author at their convenience. Players may not edit the Title, Category, or any other aspect of their Draft not specificied as editable in the Ruleset.
In Rule 1.9, change
A Player should not edit their own blog comments once posted, nor those of any other Player
.to
A Player should not edit their own blog comments once posted, nor those of any other Player, unless otherwise specified in the Ruleset.
Change, in Rule 3.2
No entry may be more than one of the following official types of post: Proposal, Call for Judgement, Declaration of Victory, and Idling Post
to
No entry may be more than one of the following official types of post: Proposal, Call for Judgement, Declaration of Victory, Idling Post, and Draft
Currently, under Rule 1.9, editing entries after posting is a violation of fair play. As a result, players often post drafts of potential proposals in order to get input from other players. However, when issues are found, drafts currently must be reposted each time changes are made. Past attempts to fix this problem have focused on allowing the text of Proposals to be edited, which introduces legal and practical difficulties. This proposal would create a Category of entries known as “Drafts†which could be edited freely by the author.
because drafts should be editable into proposals.
I think this is a step in the right direction.
