What's going on?

[edit]

I'm currently under the following editing restrictions per the outcome of this AN thread

1) A DYK article nomination or hook submitted by LavaBaron must be reviewed and accepted by 2 other editors before it may be promoted.
2) Any DYK nomination reviewed by LavaBaron must also be reviewed and accepted by 1 other editor before it may be promoted.
3) Any additional reviews by other editors, which are mandated by this restriction, shall count towards the QPQ of that editor.
4) (To balance the maths) For each article submitted by LavaBaron to DYK, 2 QPQ reviews by LavaBaron are required, at least 1 of which shall be a nomination that had not yet been accepted by another editor.
5) These restrictions shall initially last for a period of 3 months. At the end of the period, this restriction shall be reviewed.

What does this mean in practice?

[edit]

If I nominate an article, it requires 2 reviews. If I am the first to review an article, it requires a second, confirmation review. And to balance the numbers, I will be reviewing some articles which are already reviewed, either agreeing or disagreeing with the first review.

What about the boilerplate?

[edit]

I will always include the following text in any review I make.

Promoters: Please ensure there are 2 reviews for this nomination (see my FAQ)
