Too long. Didn't read everything. But from what I'm getting, the approval process is showing itself to be unpopular due to the amount of work necessary to maintain it. Good. I was adamantly against the entire thing back in the day when it was first proposed as a counter to the abundance of poor writing material. You shouldn't discourage users to put up their content. But you should have the ability to critique other peoples' work. If the user doesn't want your critique, too bad; you posted it on the internet. If you put up your work in a public space, it's bound to receive critique regardless of whether it's advertised for such.

I've always strived to use fan fiction wikis like Star Wars Fanon as a model for development of this wiki when I was an admin. But I also recognize that the audience for Star Wars, a 30-year-old space opera franchise, is much different than a 15-year-old shonen anime series.

I'm still not a fan of people having to go through any sort of application process, but what Seireitou proposed is a much more streamlined proposition and less redundant than what is currently in play.
