Up to a point, I'd say. As far as I can tell Tony's beef with
"process wonks" is that the slavish following of rules has come to
replace building a great encyclopaedia as the primary goal. He has no
patience with people who look first at the rules and only second at
whether a given thing is good for the encyclopaedia or not. The
decision hierarchy at present for many people seems to be community,
guideline, policy, encyclopaedia - it should be the other way round.
