So you're suggesting that the way to "protect" podfic entries from, in essence, a form of well-meaning vandalism (to my eyes it is nothing more than concern-trolling editing) that turns a podfic entry into a fic entry despite the template and the categorization - as precisely happened just now -, is to make sure, with a policy, that every podfic entry is also a fic entry? Yeah, I'm going to have to say I find that offensive.
