No, I think what's being asked for is a group of people who will apply policy in a neutral way. The votes are already stacked, that's the purpose of having policy; policy is the vote stacking tool, not the group of editors. RFC provides no comment, at least not at articles I've listed on it. Actually, if I'm honest, I'm finding more and more that Wikipedia is imply broken. We've got clear guidance at [[WP:RS]] that message boards aren't acceptable sources, and yet we've got thousands of articles that are relying on just that. Either we need to rewrite our policies and have an anything goes policy, or we need to get a lot tougher in enforcing the key policies.
And if we want to be a serious encyclopaedia, it must be the latter.
