Proposal: Tradition

Timed out 11 votes to 1. Enacted by Kevan.

Adminned at 06 Oct 2011 13:27:40 UTC

If no Rule titled “Masterpieces” exists, this Proposal has no effect.

Add a new Dynastic Rule titled “Styles”:

An artistic Style consists of a name and a list of Stylistic Criteria; a Work of Art belongs to a particular Style if it labels itself as belonging to that Style and satisfies all of its Stylistic Criteria.  An Artist can create a new Style by adding it to the Wiki page “Styles”; a list of Masterpieces belonging to that Style should be maintained along with the entry.

When a Work of Art belonging to a particular Style becomes a Masterpiece, every Artist other than that Work of Art’s author gains 1 Acclaim for each of eir Masterpieces belonging to that Style.

By adopting a style, you allow other artists to gain acclaim immediately, for the possibility of gaining acclaim yourself in the future.

“1 Acclaim for each of eir Masterpieces belonging to that Style”

Whilst the intention is clear, “eir” for “their” in the above line presumably breaks the resulting rule, so I don’t feel I can vote for it. I would, however, encourage you to self-kill and repropose it.

Oops—not a big deal though:

“Admins may correct obvious spelling and typographical mistakes in the Ruleset at any time, including replacing Spivak and gender-specific pronouns with the singular ‘they’.”

(for reference, “eir” is the Spivak possessive)

Oh, fair enough then.
