I agree that the hierarchical system seems to work very well. I think the rule that only stories can provide images for articles is utter tosh. The fact this thread has lasted so long proves that there's an update pending. I really don't like the fact that "a slice of time" and "not a story" are treated as the same thing on this Wiki. As I said way earlier, when I see a DWM preview, I treat it as a slice of time from a valid story. It's a few seconds encapsulated in comic form. That's why, for me, saying "it's not a story thus we can't use it" is like a kick in the shins, because no-one's arguing its validity as a story, but we are arguing its validity as "part of a story". But that debate encroaches on whether DWM previews are valid, which may be a debate for a later day.
