PvXwiki:Vetting VI.

This is a proposed vetting policy to replace PvXwiki:Build vetting procedure.

Marks

 * The vetting policy generates % of favored for builds calculated from the weighted marks of registered voters and unregistered voters.
 * % is recalculated after every single vote (mark) (or daily/weekly/etc).
 * Everybody can give marks but the marks of registered voters will be weighted by their rank.
 * Voters give marks between 0-3 (or D/A/E/O; see below) to builds rather than a simple yes or no.
 * Builds are rated separately for every single area. If a build is designed to work in three different areas, three separate "rate a build" section has to be added.
 * Voting nevers stops

Registration of voters and calculation of their rank

 * Voters can register for a certain build category by showing the appropriate title to an admin (or "registration admin") in-game. The areas are linked to titles in the following order: "champion"<-GvG, "hero"<-HA, "gladiator"<-RA/TA and "Friend of..."<-AB. (PvE: PvE titles do not link to specific PvE categories (farming/running/general/hero), instead they contribute to a general PvE rank)
 * The rank of registered voters apply only for areas where they can prove their experience by the appropriate title, in other areas they vote as unranked.
 * The weight of a registered vote is: "(rank of title)+1", except the hero rank where it is "(title rank)/2". Therefore a rank5-6 hero counts 3 votes and a glad4 counts 5 votes. Unregistered votes are not weighted, they count one vote. (PvE: title(s) rank-weight relationship to be determined).
 * Voter ranks will be listed on a public (protected) page.

Rating
The builds for each profession/area category are listed according to their %rating (the 0-3 (or D/A/E/O, see below) mark range is normalized to 0-100%). Builds will be placed into four major rating categories after receiving the minimum number of votes:

The number of build categories (O,E,A and D) are the same as the mark range (3,2,1 and 0) so voters can indicate which category the build belongs to.
 * Best 5 Builds: Outstanding: The best builds in the world. (Rating must be above 75%)
 * 6-10 builds: Exceeds Expectations: Not the most effective builds but in certain situations they can shine. (Rating must be above 50%)
 * 11-50: Acceptable: only recommended for those who like to experiment with builds. (Rating must be above 25%)
 * Dreadful: To be deleted (Rating less than 25%)

The Outstanding and the Exceeds Expectations categories will be shown as "favored" builds and the Outstanding category will be highlighted. Acceptabble builds will be listed separately.


 * In special cases, when a build is not getting the rating it deserves, an in-game discussion may be initiated (by admins/nomination system). In-game discussions will be advertized on the main page to attract a large audience. After the in-game discussion an in-game voting is held among ranked players (unranked players can not vote in-game). The result of the in-game voting replaces the original voting.
