Requests for Adminship (RfA)

Are bureaucrat chats working?

Last year, several controversies were escalated and the Requests for Adminship (RfA) process put under intense scrutiny as some editors were promoted under disagreements (even amongst crats) on what constitutes a consensus. Has the introduction and the use of bureaucrat chat effective in determining consensus, and henceforth the long term solution to making RfA work and less controversial?

Yes

No

  1. I'd say its about 50% effective, which is about as good as a bureaucrat flipping a coin. Mr.Z-man 19:58, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
  2. Pointless. -- Naerii 20:01, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
  3. They're a good idea, but in practice most chats contain disagreements among the bureaucrats, and their discussion needs consensus interpretation, which defeats the purpose. seresin ( ¡? ) 20:11, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
