From what I gather, this is a case where people can write their own short stories (something already occupied by Stories and Biographies, frankly) and give them a fast track to get canonized into the mod.
With no association with their particular characters, on a roleplay server, where their content is no longer their own once it is "canonized."
So effectively you're just getting other people to do infocard/rumor development, without actually giving them the role of developer, complete with no say in the development of things, more or less taking ownership of it when it is "good."
Excuse me if that's a little bit offensive to me on principle, because this is reading to me like a "You players, present us with your offerings, and if it is good? It is ours."
Also, the talk about "canonization" like it's serious business gives me some severe HL2RP vibes, certainly can't wait for more of the rampant circular arguments of "but this is canon and this isn't" because person X has a different interpretation of the lore vs person Y and Z, but person X is in charge of something. A bit like, I don't know, the discussion about whether or not Confederate Gallia ditched all of their Valors, or something.
Like Hemlocke, I appreciate the intent, giving people an in to contribute to a gap in fluff. This isn't the way I see it should be done, though.
