Wikivoyage talk:Itinerary status

Change status requirements?
Have the requirements ever been discussed, or were they just written down when it was decided to have such criteria?

The current status table:

I think for getting outline status the page should tell what the route is about, not only region or endpoints.

Usable requires "complete" Understand and Get in sections. I think itinerary writers should first concentrate on the itinerary itself. A complete Understand shouldn't be required before star status, and if the endpoints are places that have articles, Get in is not essential. I added Prepare and Stay safe.

I added "informational" and a sentence on issues in "guide".

So what about the following:

There is a problem in changing status requirements, in that some articles will not meet the new ones (unless no requirements are tightened), requiring all to be checked. I don't know how to do that rationally, but I don't think the status table needs to be changed. I didn't touch the star status, which have had some more discussion through the nomination process. I also assume that any FTT candidate already covers the additional requirement.
