I never messed around much with FA during my time. Who on earth made that dumb decision to give him (or anyone) alone such power? And why on Earth hasn't it be undone in the name of common sense?
Mainly because he does a good job of it and very few people see a need to complain. I don't necessarily see a reason to rock the boat, being involved with the FA process, but it is one of those Wikipedia oddities, for sure.
I've always thought it an odd decision, but he does seem to do a good job. I'm sure as soon as he makes a controversial decision he will be removed and replaced by a more community driven system. Even if that doesn't happen, the fact that one person doesn't scale will result in a change being required. I'm surprised that hasn't happened already - does he never go on holiday?
