I'm talking about both sides. However, it is easier to deal with people acting in bad faith when you're not acting in bad faith yourself.
In the present case, the webcomics debacle seems to the doll collectors a good reason not to trust in the good faith of AFD. Do you have any ideas on how to remedy this perception - or reality - other than just saying to them "trust us, really, it'll be better this time around"?
I'm looking for ideas on this *specific* problem: specialists who see how AFD has treated other specialists (very badly indeed) and decide they can really do without even risking that degree of uncaring and self-righteous stupidity. This is one, there will be more. I submit that this is a really bad thing.

But that's what AFD is designed for! Its entire setup is optimized to allow otherwise uninvolved users to vote on as many articles as possible, as quickly as possible.
One option is to kill AFD entirely; the other is to raise the barrier of entry to deletion discussions.
