User:Appledash/PCA Rules

Current Projects
This table on the main Project page is to be used to let others know which character and rank you are currently working on, so disputes do not rise on which member started working on it first.

Guidelines for using the table

 * If your name is not entered in the table, enter it by editing the section and adding a row with your name in the same fashion as the others. It should be listed alphabetically.
 * Example:


 * Your user name
 * Original Charart
 * Redo/Tweak #1
 * Redo/Tweak #2
 * Date
 * Date


 * Using the model above, enter the character and rank you are currently working on in place of 'Original Charart'.
 * Please use the correct rank abbreviations to put beside your character: these are listed on the main page. Example: Firestar (L)
 * Keep in mind that you may only reserve one charart at a time
 * The "Redo/Tweak" section only applies to warriors or leads of the project (see Using the Project Tweak Talk page
 * Using the model above, enter the date of the day that you entered the character and rank, so you can be held responsible for getting the art done and not holding the character for a long measure of time. Replace 'Date' with the date of that day.
 * Please use abbreviations for the date (ie Dec. 13th instead of December 13th) so as not to unnecessarily stretch the table.
 * Do not put a date for your tweaked/redone image, as it there is no written time limit for reserving a tweak or redo, and adding a date tends to stretch the table.
 * A single piece of art may only be on the table for one week, due to this being a more than adequate amount of time for an image to be done. Once an image is put up for approval on the talk page, the time limit is irrelevant, and once the image is approved/declined it can be removed from the table.
 * Please CHECK THE TABLE before adding a character to your name; arguments have been known to break out over who has laid claim to the image.
 * Pressing the Ctrl and F keys on your keyboard will pop up a search feature, where you can search the character and make sure it has not already been claimed.
 * If a member claims a character that is already on the table, that member will be given a 24-hour ban. There is no excuse for claiming a character that is already there.
 * If the same member does this more than two times, a 24 hour ban will be given and the member will be removed from the Project.
 * If a member enters a character without putting the date, the character will be removed.
 * If unperceived circumstances (such as the talk page being full) prevent a member from getting their image up within one week, the member can renew the character claim and date after the two weeks expire.

Membership table
This table show which users belong to the Project, and lists users according to their qualifications.
 * If an apprentice or kit becomes inactive for more than two weeks, that apprentice can be removed from the Project.
 * Qualifications for being moved to a senior warrior on the table are listed on the nominations page.
 * If a warrior is inactive for more than two months, than that member will be removed from the table.
 * Non-leads (warriors, apprentices, kits) may not edit the membership table.

Project lead duties
These include duties that other members may not do on the main Project page. The project leads include the leader, the deputy, and the senior warriors.

Member table

 * The leads may edit the members table as follows:
 * When a user asks to join on the talk page, any lead may add them into the table under the kit listing. Both kits and apprentices are given 10 days to re-upload their image. If exceeded, their image will be declined.
 * Once a kit has completed one charart that a lead deems is above 50% complete, the lead may move them from the kit listing into the apprentice listing.
 * Once an apprentice is eligible, any lead may move them from the apprentice listing into the warrior listing. Upon becoming a warrior, members time to re-upload their image will be cut from 10 days to 7.
 * If an apprentice becomes inactive for more than two weeks, any lead may remove them from the Project.
 * Once a warrior becomes inactive for a month, any lead may move them from the warrior listing.
 * Once a member requests for their name to be removed from the table.

News section

 * Only one lead, designated by the leader, may edit the News section. As of now, the current news editor is Appledash.
