User:Mboverload/Zero Featured Article

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Oh God, people still use that? --Rory096 talking about WP:1FA

The Zero Featured Articles (0FA) criterion is the new standard that mboverload will be using for voting in Requests for Adminship, effective from 22 June2006. It states that "This user will not use some silly standard metric to judge another human being." We are not robots, we have judgement, and a strict system for measuring an editor's worth is hopelessly limited.

There has been a backlash against WP:1FA and similar measuring systems. While I respect people who would like to streamline the RFA process, it needs a human touch. If we all just followed some guideline there would be no need for voting or discussion.


Guide to reasons that you might get adminship

[edit]
  • Understanding what Wikipedia is, caring about it, and a knowlege of the rules you are to abide by
  • Giving significant help to Wikipedia (many ways to do this)
  • A need for the tools
  • I trust you to do the right thing. NO system can measure this, which is perhaps the most important of all.

Notes

[edit]
  • If you believe that I have opposed you in error, try to calmly convince me otherwise ON THE RFA.
  • You need quite a few edits, but there is no set rule on this.
