General outline of boards.
This is just a suggestion but I didnt know where else to put it but here. On the main forum page there are three boards regarding claims. I understand the concept that when new claims are voted on and are accepted they are moved to completed claims until they are then added to the map where im guessing they should be moved to added. However I have noticed that rejected claims end up in the added board and that I dont seem to understand. Shouldnt there be a board titled "Rejected claims"? that way it would cause less confusion to people over wether their claim has been accepted or rejected before actually opening the particular thread

Added Claims is for claims that do not have to be worried about by cartographers. Completed Claims = Claims to be added to the map. If a claim is denied, it is automatically "added" as no change is made to the map. That's the logic, and it works.

Yeah, I guess you're right.
However, we can't use "Finished Claims" - too similar to "Completed Claims". And there's already a "Finished Votes" board too. Ahhh! Okay here's what I propose:

Thoughts?Claims and Modifications remains the same
Completed Claims -> Successful Claims
Added Claims -> Resolved Claims

Could work, but I don't think you even need to change Completed to Succesful ... Resolved is certainly a good term though ...

Completed pretty much = Resolved. Same sort of problem.

I guess "Processed but not yet added" is too long ...
