It's a culture where the social media aspect of Wikipedia is more important than creating content.
It's an institution that is slowly dying, from self-inflicted wounds, from allowing children to be admins to allowing mindless obedience to rules to be more important than content.
It is an organization where the janitor is more important and powerful than the writers. Where the copy editors carry more weight then the people creating the content.
That's why Wikipedia is losing both editors and admins. It is why it is going to continue to do so.
