Here's an example of what I mean. I noticed that a specific
administrator,
in the last 12 hours, managed to get into a delete wheel war with another admin, get himself blocked for 3RR, and then unblocked himself. He then unblocked an obvious troll, without informing the blocking admin, and blocked another editor permanently, accusing him of being a sockpuppet,
with
no evidence that I am aware of. My curiousity piqued, I looked at his recent edits, and discovered that *none* of his past 600 edits have been
to
an article, but do find a comment he has posted today saying that Jimbo is "too busy asking for money" to deal with Wikipedia issues. I then do an editcount, and discover that of his 8700 edits, only 1800 are to articles, the *exact same number* of edits he has made to his User page. I look at his User page, and discover *86* user boxes on it.
What is going on here?
If you think he shouldn't be an admin, I invite you to file an RFAr about it, rather than complaining to the mailing list, which does nothing but create ill will amongst contributors.

An RFAr would cause just as much or more ill will. I think it's fine to use specific examples when talking about larger Wikipedia issues.
