A Conversation for The Underguide - Good or Bad?
"Entries commented on by similar people, community not getting into the AWW"?

I'm not quite sure what this is going on about, but I have to say that every entry has an equal chance of getting in to the UnderGuide, just as with the Edited Guide. Perhaps more so.

by this i actually meant community posting on the entries, as it seems to be the same view people posting again and again when it really needs more community involvement to provide a more varied range of views.

To do that I recommend all the community become miner then. I don't think people would complain.

stop putting the UG first. you should wnat the community to comment on entries like in PR, not all become miners. you are putting the UG above the AWW, which is the axact thing i am so truly against with the UG!

I don't think everyone would have to become miners to give their opinions. I thought UG was going to work in a way similar to the Edited Guide, where any researcher can give advice in the review forum, then miners and polishers consider the advice and move it along through the process just like scouts and subs do.
If that system were unfair, then it would be no worse than the system for the Edited Guide and Peer Review.

Yeah that's right. Right now, the miners do the most commenting, and will probably continue to, but we want a larger community participation
