Forum:CT Archive/EduCorps rules and responsibilities

In the recent EduCorps meeting several changes were proposed for the Comprehensive article nomination process and the EduCorps-only reviewing body. The goal of these changes is to both increase the quality of Comprehensive articles and to add responsibilities for the members of the EduCorps who are not members of either the Inquisitorius or AgriCorps reviewing boards. (Note: Each part of the proposal should be voted on separately.)

The first two proposed changes relate to the following section of the EduCorps page, which says that: "The EduCorps is not analogous to either the Inquisitorius or the AgriCorps, in so far as it is not a review panel, it is not subject to continual internal meetings and operations, and most importantly, it is not the obligation of those on the list to review nominations." Any proposals that pass from this section will change the specified sentence.

The last proposed change is designed to prevent the nominators from reducing their articles word count in order to keep nominated articles from having to go on to the GAN page.-- Exiled Jedi   (Greetings)  03:13, September 1, 2013 (UTC)

Responsibility to maintain the CAN page
This part of the proposal will add the sentence: "It is the responsibility of EduCorps members who are not part of the AgriCorps or Inquisitorius to review comprehensive article nominations and maintain the Comprehensive article nomination page.-- Exiled Jedi   (Greetings)  03:13, September 1, 2013 (UTC)

Responsibility to maintain comprehensive articles through EduCorps meetings
This part of the proposal will add the sentence: "It is the responsibility of EduCorps members who are not part of the AgriCorps or Inquisitorius to maintain comprehensive articles through EduCorps meetings, which will be scheduled every three months unless a meeting is deemed to be necessary at an earlier time by at least three EduCorps members (Inquisitors and AgriCorps members count towards this total)." Note: The new meeting system will replace the largely unused comprehensive article review page.-- Exiled Jedi   (Greetings)  03:13, September 1, 2013 (UTC)

Comprehensive article nominations approaching 250 words
This part of the proposal will add a new requirement to the "An article must..." section: "...if an article approaches the 250-word length for Good article nominations, it should not deliberately shortened in order to avoid meeting that word limit."-- Exiled Jedi   (Greetings)  03:13, September 1, 2013 (UTC)
