[QUOTE="weldon, post: 5726362, member: 18817"] I've been absent for over a year, so please forgive me if I'm missing bits and pieces of the context... What do you think of the idea of letting players change the categories on their character sheets to "tag" them for review? I suppose we would need a few tags to track the various states (eg, needs review, needs judge review, approved, etc.) We could still have a central page that lists all the character sheets that need review for each of those categories, but it would be automated in that players only need modify their own character sheets (they don't need permission to modify a group page). If that would work for everyone, I'd be happy to put in a little time this week to work on the listing and write up the instructions for how to "tag" your character sheets. In essence, what I'm suggesting is that players would add two categories to their character sheets (review requested, judge approval requested). The "characters requesting review" page would list those that need both, and those that only need a judge approval. Once a reviewer has finished looking over the sheet, they would remove the "review requested" category. Now when a judge checks the "characters requesting review" page, they would see a list of those that still need their first review, and those that are only waiting for judge approval. After reviewing a character sheet (and approving it), they would remove the "judge approval requested" category. The character sheet would then drop off the page of characters that are requesting review. Optionally, the judge could add the category "approved" and the character would automatically be added to the "approved characters" page. When a character levels up, the player would update their sheet and then add those two categories back to their page and the process would be repeated. Judges and reviewers can "subscribe" to changes for that category and will be notified by Wikia when new characters need to be reviewed. Hmmmm. After I wrote all this up, I went to Wikia and I see that these categories already exist but that they are probably out of date. Has my suggestion already been tried and been found to not work?
