Raising/lowering thresholds by which consensus is gauged will be of little effect. RfAs don't typically fall into the gray area; they pass with near-100% support or fail dismally. I consider this a symptom of deeper issues.

There is no real cure for editcountitis. People who think an editor's value can be numerated are fools and there is no cure for this disease except age. If I wanted a high edit count, I'd not write my comments externally and edit them heavily there before pasting into this box, previewing a few times, perhaps rewriting, then finally submitting. No, I'd save a dozen versions before moving on. I certainly wouldn't spend hours creating graphics "worth" only one edit each. AWB drives the entire issue into absurdity.

Limiting RfA suffrage to existing admins is not a tweak; it is the sabotage of the community. Strongest double secret super speedy whack with an axe™. John Reid 08:22, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
