[WikiEN-l] Admin, RFA, RFB and whatnot...

[Relata Refero]

Avruch's RfB is also something people should look at. I haven't !voted
there, but there are some comments on power relations and so on.

Frankly, if these bits weren't handed out for life, we could be a little
more relaxed - right now, as I say on that RfB, we don't even know if the
'crats job will stay what it is, and if it changes, nobody will suggest
everyone passes an RfB again.

The way things are now, its the difference between a Senate confirmation of
a Supreme Court justice and their confirmation of a cabinet member, who has
a set term. And if we let things slide, we'll get a class of editors who
will choose not to get their hands dirty at all because they might irritate
someone in that process who could impede thir RfA and RfB. Something like
hotshots in the legal profession avoid stating opinions on controversial
subjects at all costs.
