We have, what, 4000 new articles a day, something like that. Something like half gets speedied, and a chunk goes to Afd or gets {{prod}}ed. We need every single admin we can get.
No, we don't. 50% of admin actions in March 2006 were performed by 29 of our nearly 900 admins; 90% by 170. We could probably lose 500 admins without any real impact on our ability to get administrative work done. Note also that sending articles to AfD or prod doesn't require an admin.
Simply disagreeing with someone, or thinking that they break some policies are not enough for desysopping. Such an action is never punitive, which means that an admin can (and should) only lose their status for misuse of their priviliges. Can you name anyone lately?
Karmafist. Ed Poor. Guanaco. Stevertigo. There's others; do you pay any attention to the Arbitration Committee's docket lately?
