I posted this in the rules thread which was probably the wrong place, just some ideas for discussion on how we can have a smoother DQ process.

I don't know if it is an issue of rules more so a method statement or a more justified process on how the Site council votes on images that have a DQ request put in.

In my view the current method is cumbersome and riddled with the potential of conflict of interest and allegations of bias. These problems can be eliminated if the process is simplified my suggestions are as follows;

When an image is requested for a DQ, site council review this image and if they can not make a clear decision immediately that the image is then moved to a sub-committee that is made up of 3-5 of the most experienced site council who have not seen the image previously and do not know who owns it.

This sub-committee would remain anonymous and would vote on all images referred to them any decision made by them would be final. All other debate in the forums regarding the DQ image would not involve any site council member; they should not be allowed to make any comment as an individual or site council member on that image.

The rules should be clear and defined enough so if you required a validation before a challenge you should be able to get an exact answer as long as you give site council enough time before a challenge closes.

Just a suggestion.
