Well I'm out. Get another manager to replace me.

Still long way to go mate, don't drop out. I can understand mods trying to be objective as possible and consistent and it's tough to make everyone happy.

Missing out on proof happens, think we're in round three and I'm also on a yellow...

I really don't want to overwork mods to check our picks. But saying that evidence is not enough on the PM can't really be hard. We didn't know for example that giving movie name is not enough. It doesn't say in OP that you have to give a link or a picture.It does really seem like something you are making as we are progressing. Anyway onwards.

That's why we have a first warning. As soon as we gave it we received a link. Everyone knows evidence means supporting evidence not someone's say so.

Mods have 17 different convos, it's a bloody pain going up and down, collating stuff, forgetting what was the pick you just read when you go to edit... Adding the constant back and forth of requesting evidence, waiting for it and only then updating is not as simple as it seems.

It's not making it up as we go along, it's knowing that rules must be enforced consistently or instead of R1/2 meltdowns you get R8 meltdowns when the inconsistency is evident and people feel rightly aggrieved about it.

Just so we are all clear, it's current official names for stadiums and stands. E.g. if Coke have rights for a fka Maradona stadium it's called Coke.

Sculpture does not count

In art terms a statue is a sculpture. Statues are a sub-set of sculptures so I think you need a different term to define what you mean

A statue is a sculpture, representing one or more people or animals (including abstract concepts allegorically represented as people or animals), free-standing (as opposed to a relief) and normally full-length (as opposed to a bust) and at least close to life-size, or larger.

Maybe he means a bust is not acceptable. You know the head only pieces. @green_smiley ?
 
green_smiley said:
Yes

Examples of those not acceptable:
(1) Part piece (like the Sweeler's foot)
(2) Mini-size figure
(3) Abstract figure

Or the one prompting the clarification: a celebratory chocolate sculpture with a face that could be anyone and probably isn't on public display but in someone's belly.
