I've written a couple of trip reports now and I find them a lot of work. Fun, but a lot of work. I can't speak for other authors - maybe it's just me.

So if the rule was either a complete trip report or nothing, I would never get around to it. I start the trip report as soon as possible after returning and try to write up one leg per day. But the real world often gets in the way.

Is it possible for authors to rename a thread? If so it could start with the usual inviting title and once complete change the title by adding the word COMPLETE or something similar to the end of the title.

Anything too difficult will just discourage new content and I think we all want to see lots of trip reports.
