:::::My point to consider is, WIP reservations even on mini game releases and minor previews are also not desirable. Say when Super Snot Put was released, many users were eager to construct the new articles and sections. In fact this was the reason the page was packed with information so readily. Now imagine(assume) someone reserves the page for 7 days, and creates a near-complete and near-perfect article. All other members are robbed of their chance to contribute significantly to the construction of the article. This situation might arise if we exclude mini games and small previews from the 72 hour rule-- intended to promote collaboration.

(reset indent)So, based on current discussions. No WIP for 72 hours after the blog post announcement time on the Nitrome Blog. Applies to any game release, feature release and previews, to (1) encourage collaborative editing (2) prevent WIP reservations. If the announcement is a few days late, the timer starts from the blog post date and time, and the no WIP rule is enforced from the release up until 72 hours after the blog post time.[[User:SQhi|SQhi]]'''•'''[[User_talk:SQhi|(talk)]]<sup>Ruby</sup> 07:43, October 13, 2012 (UTC) |
