As of this instant, I will no longer accept author permissions gathered by
nominators. Why because I have enough work to do already without having to
look up authors whose names in their e-mails to the nominator forwarded to
me doesn't match up to any of the names on the Author list, making double
the work for me. And I have an unreliable memory anyway. So a question
comes up asking why so and so's nominations aren't complete when the
nominator forwarded the information to me. Now I have to sift through my
inbox, opening every e-mail from that nominator to find this one author and
oh, while I'm at it I should check all the others because I can't remember
if I did them or not. And then I have to guess at the author's name. This
does not make me happy.

Besides, unless the nominator tells the author every bit of information they
are going to put in the nomination (categories, length, rating, subcategory
suggestions, etc.) the author's simple "okay" isn't enough to make the
nomination complete.

So, from now on, leave it to the Author Liaisons. It's what they
volunteered to do anyway.

There are moments when I'm dictatorial. This is one of them.
