Forum:CT Archive/FAN rule amendment

Not long ago I came across a rule on the Good article nominations page that I feel is vaguely alluded to on the rules for the Featured article nominations page. I believe this FAN rule wording should be modified to greater reflect this GAN wording.

The GAN rule states: "5. It is stable, i.e., it does not change significantly from day to day and is not the subject of ongoing edit wars. This does not apply to vandalism and protection or semi-protection as a result of vandalism."

The FAN rule I refer to, which I believe is meant to deal with the same idea, reads, in not so many words: "5. …not be the object of any ongoing edit wars."

I propose we reword FAN rule 5 to reflect that which I believe is presented more specifically clearer and straightforward on the GAN to read as is for the purpose of greater article stability: "5...it is stable, i.e., it does not change significantly from day to day and is not the subject of ongoing edit wars. This does not apply to vandalism and protection or semi-protection as a result of vandalism." Toprawa and Ralltiir 13:54, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

I support this measure

 * 1) I don't think an article's potential instability is so great. Toprawa and Ralltiir 13:54, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
