Council Members' Declared Interests

Re: Council Members' Declared Interests
Usage Example:Quality Article:
+1 to +5 for conformance to the Wikipedia article standard.
+0.5 for every good quality section about their nation. Minimal requirements being a general introduction, a section on their government, a flag and a coat of arms.
+1 for every subsequent full article on issues or items directly related to that micronation that conform to the Wikipedia article standard. It can, of course contain information on another nation (such as an article about a war or some other event)
Citizenship:
+0.5 for every participating verifiable citizen. Verifiable meaning that said citizens are registered on MicroWiki and have participated in the discission page of the nation's wiki article or have regularly updated/edited the article. Anyone registered on the MicroWiki forums and openly proclaims citizenship also counts as a verifiable citizen.
No points are given for non-verifiable citizens. I.e. they are not registered on MicroWiki (and/or its forums).
Add all of the points together and divide the sum by 4 giving an average.
1-2 points - Not yet ready unless their claim is very small.
2-3 points - Ready for a smaller claim but continuous monitoring may be required.
3+ points - Ready for a normal claim.
Round up to the nearest half point.
A nation has a Wikipedia quality article with 4 well written sections about their nation, that is 7pts. They have 4 decent quality articles on the wiki about events or whatever that involve them internally or with other nations, that is 2pts. They have 5 verifiable citizens, 2.5pts. This makes for a total of 11.5 points, divided by 4 (the number of point categories) and you get 2.875, rounding up to the next half point is 3.0 making them ready for a normal sized claim. This could then be used as a basis for voting AYE or NAY. And, echoing Max's sentiments, voting nay with a favorable point spread should definitely be explained.
WARNING: This might require council members to actually exert effort doing research and evaluation.
