Forum:Tweaking FW

As Star Wars Fanon celebrates its first featured work, the Heritage novel, I'd like to take the time to quickly thank the Archivists and other readers for all they did with that. They did a heck of a job, especially considering that the system was being built around them while they worked, and this was the very first nomination. Send them a nice note for their work. Hopefully, if we (read: Drewton) can get the Main Page redesign implemented, it'll be good to go for January and we can start off the New Year with a new type of showcasing.

That said, there were a few things that came up during the nomination process that perhaps need a little tweaking. I've put up some voting options; feel free to add more as you wish.

Navigation requirements
This would add the following policy to the FW requirements: "All featured work nominations that contain more than one page (i.e. subpages or multiple chapters), must have some easy-to-use but not obtrusive means of navigating to the main article and next and previous chapters at the very least&mdash;additional linking is helpful but not required. This navigation can be via templates such as ChapterNav, infobox coding, or otherwise, but must be implemented."

Voting requirements
As it stands, FWNs require 2 Archivist votes and 5 community votes to be successful. The following proposals would alter the community voting scheme

How votes are counted
This proposal would change the requirements for passage to "X votes (depending on the outcome above. X is currently 7), of which at least 2 must be Archivist votes." This allows a 3rd Archivist vote on a given nom to be counted towards the overall vote count, which I foolishly neglected to implement when writing the policy in the first place. This should correct that.
