Neutral - some good point and some bad points. People have already analysed the crap out of the pasta length category(which I oppose), so I'll talk about something else:

Although a lot of the pastas on this wiki are either exceptionally good or excepttionally bad (cough), it will become hard when it comes to finding pastas worth it for the higher tiers since the lines are very blurred there. Also, we need better guidelines than this in general - it doesn't cover cliches or anything of that sort. The Normal Guidelines should be crystal clear and provide a good idea of what we expect as an article on this wiki - not too strict, but firm enough to give an impression. Further up the line it can become broader, but otherwise arguements could happen over an article that was deleted because one admin thought it fit the needs, whilst another didn't.

Also, instead of admin approval for higher tiers, give it to the community. Although POTM is already a thing, someone would make a thread every other week to list the current articles people have suggested for Quality Pasta/Classic/Whatever and see if the community agrees. Or something like that.

Either way, I like where this is going, but it still needs fleshing out. And word count should be a guideline, not a must.
