Alright, so the voting phase of the affiliation criteria has been concluded and the results are that the favourited criteria are:


 * Series by the same author (unsettled if it should have a minimum page requirement or not)
 * A series that has games as its main focus.
 * Both wikis have common editors (at least 3 or 33% of the editor base must be regulars on both wikis with a specified number of edits in the past 6 months)
 * A series that is cooperating/has cooperated with SAO.

However, midway during the vote, C933103 advised using a scoring system instead of a "at least one criteria must match" system. So, basically, the last thing we have to decide is whether:


 * A. We use the "at least one criteria must match" system to accept an affiliation (criteria listed above).


 * B. We use a scoring system (each of the criteria that was ever mentioned on the topic would have a score based on the voting and if the series gets enough points, we accept the affiliation).

So, which version do we choose? The first method requires less work and should actually make it easier for affiliations to be accepted, while the second method is more sophisticated and would ensure that our affiliations have more than just one thing in common.
