I'm glad about the switch to article percentage (percentages will be much more scalable than flat rewards). I agree with @cherapple that the proofreader should get a separate (and IMO sizable) percentage.
One imbalance of the current system is that bad articles are a bigger editing investment but will retrieve a lower POV reward. Ultimately, this will be fixed by the editor marketplace. By then I think it will be crucial to develop a better separation with and codification of the proofreading role.
@cryptonaut, if time permits could you make the current editor visible (either in the dashboard table or on the specific blog editing page)? This will help with organization/communication and will allow us to notice any unusual behavior (if an editor marks as editing but then returns to ready without doing anything).
That's a very good step in the right direction. However, I always do a certain amount of work - often a lot - on a piece at the proofreading stage in order to get it to a point where I feel good about hitting "publish." I'm getting no compensation for the final stages of publishing.
It's partly a matter of me communicating better with the other editors about how much work I'm doing after they turn their edited articles over for proofreading, partly a matter of training them to take care of the matters of Markdown formatting and editing style, and partly a matter of me being a perfectionist about editorial consistency.
