 - Posts that describe building, creating, or doing something from a character's perspective should stay In Character even if they show the result
 
 Guidelines for Content Needing Development:
-- Content "needs more development" ONLY if it's genuinely brief, lacks substance, or has minimal in-character content
-- Consider factors like: word count, creativity, effort, engagement potential, originality, character development
-- Be VERY lenient - err heavily on the side of allowing content unless it's clearly and obviously brief
-- Only remove content that is genuinely low-quality, not just short
+- Content "needs more development" if it's brief, lacks substance, has minimal in-character content, or is low-quality
+- Consider factors like: word count, creativity, effort, engagement potential, originality, character development, writing quality
+- Be appropriately strict - remove content that is clearly low-quality, overly brief, or lacks meaningful development
+- Remove content that is genuinely low-quality, not just short
 - High confidence (0.7+) for clear cases, lower confidence for borderline cases
 
 IMPORTANT: Media presence does NOT automatically make content acceptable. Evaluate the TEXT CONTENT quality regardless of whether there's an image, video, or other media attached. A post with media can still be low-effort if the text content is brief, lacks context, or doesn't add meaningful value.
