I am Jon Harald Søby. I’m a linguistics student at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Trondheim, Norway. I’m also one of the Wikimedia Stewards. My “home Wikipedia” is the Norwegian Wikipedia, where I normally write about languages, Nauru, Queen and whatever comes to mind.

[edit] 15 reasons WP:RFA sucks

By Connel MacKenzie.

  1. They ask those insane questions
  2. They have a cabal of people who vote no for any/no reason whatsoever
  3. They generate pages of discussion second guessing worse than any shrink would ever dare
  4. They waste everyone's time
  5. It's factionalised, with various voting cliques. (by Werdna)
  6. The w:WP:RfA process is so broken, board members can't pass it (see this close call)
  7. Vandal-patrol mavens are the only ones left voting yes for anyone
  8. It's stupid (by Werdna)
  9. It sucks (by Werdna)
  10. If anyone is a good WP contributor, they don't have time for WP:RFA
    • voting
    • running
  11. WP:RFA encourages character assassination in every direction
  12. Unrelated things (normal learning curve stuff) is dredged up incessantly
  13. The process is designed to prevent giving tools to the people that use them
  14. It sucks.
  15. It's stupid.
  16. The WP B'crats are a "Bad Cabal" (as opposed to this, the DvortyCabal...the Good Cabal.)
  17. They are like Chinese Water Torture. (by Werdna)
