That Jan was offended, is sad.....because it does make for better
sites.....and actually isn't any different than Tina and MAK have done for
WI, except that the reviewing is done FOR them....then THEY do the double
checking and send the findings on to the CC of the site. In NO way does
the reviewing CC have the final say!!

Mari, I think if you had been in the project for less than a year, worked
hard to put things online, spent money to get items, only to be told that
you were more interested in graphic design, you would feel a bit offended as
well.
What did this person know about my site? Did she realize that I had just
put up a farm directory? No, yet she criticized me. I think that it would
have been more palatable if the SC or ASC as it was had said I passed the
review, showed an effort of working on the site, and looked forward to the
next review, knowing that the site would grow. Just a tad of encouragement
is all it takes. The comments from the reviewer could have been left out
and the reviewers name could have been left out.
In six years that I have been with WIGenWeb, I have yet to see *any*
comments from a review. Only one comment, if it might have been taken as a
review, has been sent to me in all that time, over a link I didn't have to
the adjoining county.
While I realize reviews can be good, there has to be a happy medium.
