The top tier is the stuff that is most important. And here's a new twist: until everything on Tier 1 has reached, say, 17 points, there's no credit available for work on Tier 2 entries. This way, we make sure that the top priorities are getting our attention first.

I still owe you My priority list-- it'll have at least two tiers of entries. (And here's a new twist: until everything on Tier 1 has reached, say, 17 points, there's no credit available for work on Tier 2 entries. This way, we make sure that the top priorities are getting our attention first.)
Meanwhile I have got for you one of the other things I promised last week: a formal process and a rubric.
Process: Every time you visit, or create, an article, leave a comment with your estimate of (a) what the article is worth on our 20-point scale at the time you logged in, what it still lacks in order to be a full 20-point article and (b) what it's worth after you're done editing. And specify what changes you're making and why they're worth what you say they are. I'll be checking to see if I agree with your estimates and awarding credit appropriately.
1. What does this mean in a journalism context? 1 pt.
2. Why does it matter? 2 pts.
3. What are some specific examples or applications? 3 pts
4. Link to resources for citations; all factual claims supported by citation

5 pts
6. Grammar, spelling, punctuation
