On wikinews, we post the current number of pending RFA's and similiar votings to the header of [[special:recentchanges]], perhaps that might be something to look into on commons.
Personally, I am subscribed to this list because i like having a vague idea what is going on at commons. However i would honestly not really care about who's up for RFA. Even if i knew the person, I probably wouldn't vote for them since i have only very minor contributations to commons, I would not feel right voting in an RFA. but then again, I quite likely would be in the minority here (since most people subscribed, are fairly active).

Hello,
On Commons there have been several times that people come with the idea to post Rfa's or Crat, CU and OV here on this list so more people know that there is somebody running for extra rights.
Since nobody did something with the idea I would like to ask : ''Are there any objections when there will be a note on this list about a request for Rights''
I am happy to send a email for every request with the link to the discussion, the nomination text and a link to the user contributions.
This will bring more people to the discussion when the know the people, since we still have people passing for adminship with for 4 votes or we need to make a rfc longer because we don't have enough people voting.
Best regards, Huib
