From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is severely out of date and needs to be re-worked sometime.

[edit] Introduction

This is a criteria that I will use to determine which way to vote for adminship. If you have any comments, please post them to me; they are always useful. This criteria works by requiring the sum of the various factors to add up to 3. The point of it is to take into account all possible factors, including the Wiki learning curve.

[edit] Application

The outline should be followed by selecting the most applicable criteria, using as many as are necessary to describe the case but not using any criterion which contains things that are false about the user. The numbers for each should be added up. If their sum is 3 or more, that person is worthy to become an administrator in the eyes of this criteria. Every criterion that is applicable should be used.

Entries nested inside of another one in the bulleted list are subordinate to all those above it in the structure, so take into account the meaning of the descriptions the one you want to choose is subordinate to.
