With the (permanent?) closure of the graveyard, we've lost access to some of the unrankable gems of osu! past. Maps such as the original Lemon Tree, Moskau, Taiko-only authentics, and even the tutorial have become inaccessible.

I'd suggest adding a new section for beatmaps which are unrankable--Unranked Highlights. This area is similar to Pending, in that the mapper may submit updates, but maps here are immune from being sent to the graveyard. They also don't count towards the upload limit.

The usual requirements of bubbling, then being sent here will apply. These maps don't have scoreboards and don't affect accuracy or score.

Importantly, these maps will be mirrored.

It sounds good on paper, but I don't see it being a complete solution.

One of the reasons why some good maps get graved is simply because the mapper did not want to get BAT's to rank it, and let it grave instead (such as Gladi/Rolled/others). If these were to end up in the Unranked Highlights section, and standard bubbling procedures apply to it, those same mappers would probably not get BAT's to add those either, and those maps will be lost in the ether along with the bog-standard graved maps.

That said though, this is a good idea. Just not a fool-proof solution.

why not make another category for that for example "permanently unranked"

support, and about what doom said, maybe a mapper would have to choose whether or not to put it in that section

Hmm.. Bumping.
That problem seems to be fixed for the today's process. I am not sure how are the unavailable Beatmaps are involved in this (and I think they are still not accessible) but this problem is out of the world I would say.

Support and bump!

Actually some maps are only unrankable because they disobey one or two criteria(s), but they are still memorizable.
I think this is a part lacking in current beatmap system (Currently nothing unrankable can escape the faith of deleting).

I can see this idea working. Hell you could give them a ranking list and resolve two feature requests at once!

^ which ones?
Anyway, I think the idea by xxbidiao is a bit outplaced from the actual request here (I find the idea btw good too).
