 * Sigh*, yet again at it.

Okay, yes, the application is pretty poorly made, seems like it's his first one, we all start somewhere.

But let's look at other facts, okay? According to Phantom, his edits are good. But he wasn't *reeeally* active till a short while ago. While yes, activity is what determines your position a fair bit, what good is an active user that won't make quality edits? Exactly.

People gotta stop having this mentality of numbers = power. Come on. You could make 1000 edits out of fixing "_"s and extra spaces on pages, and, by the logic, instantly win any staff position because "lol, you have more than the usual".

If the standards are low, then RAISE them. Think getting a button for 100 MS edits is too little? Do something!

I think the wiki would be infinitely better if this mentality wasn't so widespread. Come on, quality over quantity any day, dudes. Might as well rid ourselves of this whole "requirement" thing. If push comes to shove, we can just rely on having staff pick these users like recently rather than having them create a promotion thread.
