The english Wikipedia continues it's downward spiral. There is no accountability for administrators, I was even blocked last month without even being told I was doing anything wrong beforehand. We really need to make certain the en.WP institutes a yearly re-confirmation process like we use at en.WS. Their current policies cannot be allowed to continue. . .
I don't think that yearly re-confirmation will solve en.WP's problems. It might get rid of people who have had long absences, but they are not the ones causing the problems. A rogue admin can do a lot of damage long before the time for his annual review comes up. Wikisource is still small enough that you can see what admins are doing, and you can more easily deal with a rogue. That doesn't scale very well in a larger project where there are entire sub-communities of rogues.
