I've implemented the first stage of map ownership. The system works under the same pending changes concept. You can find a map on the site, and either fill out the author, or select "I am the author of this map". This will still require approval by our moderation team.
If you are filling in the author manually, please keep in mind that you can now associate it with actual accounts on Nibbits. Keep in mind this requires JavaScript, but when you enter a name you should get a small auto completion menu. Select the user (or ignore the box) to associate your input with that user. If you change anything in the box this value will be reset.
Now, once you've obtained ownership of a map, you will no longer need to wait in the pending changes queue. You can click edit and your changes will be made immediately.
For the future, we plan to implement project-map ownership. This is still draft form, but the idea is that if your map is 80% similar (possibly in the name) we automatically give you ownership of the newly added map.
