I find this comment interesting:
QUOTE If I was the boss of a company, I wouldn't fire my best employee for pissing off everyone else, especially if he or she actually gets shit done. Let's face it: Malleus is worth more to Wikipedia than five admins. Why not let Malleus have immunity because of his usefulness? Is calling someone a cunt (even if regularly done over several years) that bad, considering this is the Internet? If someone leaves Wikipedia "because" of Malleus, it's their choice. Fetchcomms is mistaking: Malleus is worth more to Wikipedia than at least a hundred admins, probably more, but does it mean Malleus and other valued editors should be treated differently than not so valued, but good faith editors? I have no answer to this question, but I would like to hear what others think about this matter. Thanks. This post has been edited by mbz1: |

People who don't work on the encyclopedia have no business there. That should be rule number one and, if enforced, 80% of the people would be instantly banned and the rest would be sorted out.

Dumping all the administrators and removing the God-king's rights would be a start, but that's obviously not going to happen any time soon. This post has been edited by Malleus: |

"The police and government aren't doing enough to curb crime here in our town. Let's fire all of them." Until Wikipedia gets a Batman, that's not a solution. |

"The police and government aren't doing enough to curb crime here in our town. Let's fire all of them." Except that Wikipedia's administrators are not particularly much involved in "stopping crime".Until Wikipedia gets a Batman, that's not a solution. I could have lived with administrators that are not particularly much involved in "stopping crime". I cannot live with administrators who block valued contributors to satisfy the trolls and the hounds. |
