Surely if you even have a ridiculously high edit count expectancy, you would reduce it for people trusted on other projects. I mean I'd never support someone on the sole basis that they were an admin elsewhere - that would be silly. But it's certainly an important factor.Majorlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13127213553953357156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3942189569807809109.post-70350678694163864632008-05-24T12:59:00.000+01:002008-05-24T12:59:00.000+01:00It's not just trust.

I can trust someone based on their actions on a different wiki, but should they be given the tools just because of that? If that was the case, why not just give global admin rights to every admin? They can be trusted, right? No, being part of the community is important.<BR/><BR/>-Brad (Rocket000)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04652195153707916111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3942189569807809109.post-54766546720502381512008-05-23T18:32:00.000+01:002008-05-23T18:32:00.000+01:00I wonder if some of this "seeping through" is due ...I wonder if some of this "seeping through" is due to the fact many Admins on commons are also Admins on EN-Wikipedia? <BR/><BR/>As for the number of edits vs. being an Admin on another project, I have to disagree with you: to be an Admin on any given project, that person needs to be familiar with the culture/community of that project. Which is why, although I am an Admin on EN-Wikipedia, I would never request Admin rights on commons or meta. I have accounts on both that I try to use, but nowhere near enough to feel comfortable wielding a mop.<BR/><BR/>Geoffllywrchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16618079769141974728noreply@blogger.com
