Proposal: Updated Editions
If there is a rule named “Drafts and Plans”, add the following text to that rule as a new paragraph:
Each Drafter other than the Supervisor has a publicly tracked Draft Date, which is blank if that Drafter’s Plan Link is blank. If a Drafter’s Plan Link is not blank, that Drafter’s Draft Date is the date and time to the minute rounded down that the wiki page containing the Draft named in that Drafter’s Plan Link was last edited.
In the rule “Reviews” replace “and the name of a Drafter that it is meant for” with:
, the date and time to the minute rounded down that Review was created, and the name of a Drafter that it is meant for
It’s going to be a pain to constantly check everyone’s drafts for edits, and to match up when a Review was done vs the latest edit to a Draft, so let’s make these dates sync up explicitly.
This is especially helpful if a Review was submitted for a Draft that was then subsequently changed significantly or even wholesale replaced with an entirely different one.
Seems unnecessary to be tracking this level of detail for everything in full, when flagging the reviews with a simple “this refers to an earlier Draft” marker or colour whenever a Draft is changed would do the same job.
DoomedIdeas: he/him
Are all dates/times referred to by the BlogNomic ruleset assumed to be in UTC, or does “date in time in UTC” need to be specified? Does the wiki automatically use UTC when recording edits, or does it sync to local time?
