Welcome to AVID's Request a Project page.

This is where you can request an AVIDProject to be made. AVIDProjects are group projects intended to work on a specific topic of the wiki.

Guidelines

  • AVIDProjects can be made about any topic, whether it be film logos, television logos, station IDs, logos from a specific country, logos from a specific company, logos from films of a specific period, and so on.
  • Once a proposal is submitted, it will automatically be added to the list of open proposals. When a proposal is closed, it will automatically be moved to the closed list.
  • Proposers must put a list of articles that fall under the scope of the proposed project in their proposal.
  • Supporters can specify whether they want to be a member of the proposed project, should the project pass.
  • Proposals are typically closed by a bureaucrat after seven days. However, an administrator, moderator or other suitable member of site staff may close it prematurely in the event that:
    • The proposal is invalid, and is in violation of the above guideline.
      • Additionally, if the proposal is a violation of site rules, the proposal will be deleted and administrative action may be taken against your account.
    • Another ongoing proposal has the same purpose as the one created.
    • The author has made a comment stating that they want to retract the ongoing proposal. Please note that you may not close your own proposal without administrative approval.
    • After two days, if there are 10 votes supporting or opposing a proposal, and there are no competing votes, the request is subject to be closed under the snowball clause. Additionally, in the case where a proposal gains 20 votes supporting or opposing it with no competing votes in its first day, the proposal may be closed immediately without the two-day grace period.

How to submit a proposal

From there, enter the title of your proposal in the Request title field and, in the Description field below, type out what your project is about and what it'll aim to do once passed. Add a list of articles that fall under the project's scope. Make sure to be as clear and concise as possible with the details of your proposal so that the community will know what exactly they will be voting on. When you are ready to submit your proposal, click "Save page".
