The following is adapted from TonyBallioni’s RfA criteria:
1. Not a jerk
2. Has a clue
3. 1 year / 1000 edits (more concrete version of “have a record”)
RfB edit
For WP:RfBs, one additional criterion applies:
4. Has been a competent admin
Conclusion edit
RfA is a horrible and broken process because it’s so hard to pass. Jimbo said adminship is “not a big deal”, but RfA has become one. Let’s change that.
