Times that 100 Wikipedians supported an ArbCom candidate


This page is useless. It gets next to no views. It doesn't serve any proper purpose, and in the most recent elections (Dec 2015), every candidate got over 100 support votes, and all but two got over 500. 100 is no longer a useful yardstick or milestone, so why have a page to list it?

 * I don't understand why you've phrased this RfC in such a combative fashion (if you didn't mean it that way, that's certainly how it comes across). To answer your question, ages ago I split WP:100 into separate pages because it was becoming unwieldy. If this page is no longer useful, then sure, get rid of it. Before the split you would have just removed the section from the page. —  Scott  •  talk  15:21, 6 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep: usually WP-namespace pages are either archived, marked as inactive or redirected to a more current page to keep the contributors' work and for transparency. (btw: A deletion doesn't even make the database smaller, but bigger.) --.js ( ( ( ☎ ) ) ) 16:43, 6 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Good point. Keep and mark as historic. We have plenty of no-longer-updated records of things in the archives. You never know what somebody might find useful some day and it doesn't hurt us to file it away. —  Scott  •  talk  17:00, 6 January 2016 (UTC)
