[WikiEN-l] Worthy admins? (was "The userbox fad")

Wed Jan 4 15:53:27 UTC 2006

So RFC and Medation and arbcom don't exist because it is all handled
by admins? We have nearly 800 admins so if they are doing disspute
resolution then we should not see many dissputes that are not already
being handled. This does not appear to be the case.

Protecting an article does not resolve the disspute. It mearly
increase the pressure on those involved to talk to each other.

We seem to be talking past each other. Admins should do a better job
of of dispute resolution, certainly. Many of them are wildly
inadaquate for the job. Thats part of why its so important to overhaul
the RfA process. We need more dispute resolution, and less "wheel
warring", controversial blocks, and other such pathetic displays of
power.
