Forum:Clearing something up about the RfAs

I'm a man of long and blocky walls of text most of the time, but here, I'm going to rush straight to the point. I was thinking to myself the other day- "Damn, we have a lot of admins. It's not a bad thing, but if everyone in the world was a doctor, there would be no patients." An extremely large load of RfAs constantly crops up again and again and for different users everytime. I porpose requirements for a RfA as well as a cool down time for requesting. The terms are:


 * User must have at least 5,000 edits
 * At least 2,000 of those should be mainspace, and 500 should be War Room.
 * User must have been on the wiki long enough to recieve 6 month good conduct.
 * User must not have had any infractions recently, which do include a warning for not licensing images.
 * User must have constant anti-vandal work, as well as good custodian work. (Assuming here if the user is going to submit an RfA, they would obviously be a part of the Image Guardians and rollback
 * User must be well known and respected by the community, which would come as a given assuming all these above points are met.

As for the RfA itself:

"I think *user here* should be a admen becuz liek tehy desurrve it alut mahn ya"
 * A maximum of 3 RfAs can be submitted every month. If only 2 are submitted for example, the third does not carry on to the next month.
 * A failed RfA counts as one RfA.
 * Conversely, a passing RfA counts as one RfA.
 * The nomination must list all above points for that specific user, as well as anything the nominator wants to add. Too many RfA's today look like this:
 * Which ends up getting a warning from the admins but somehow the RfA still passes.


 * If the nomination looks like that, the RfA is void and counts as 1 RfA.
 * The same user may not be nominated in 2 consecutive months.
 * The same user may not nominate in 1 month twice.
 * Self-Nomination applies to the above. (no loopholes here, TrollFace HD.png )

As for RfB's:   Blackout MAY 29 BABY   02:20, May 30, 2011 (UTC)
 * One RfB is submitted every 2 months.
 * Voting cannot begin until the nomination is accepted.
 * The same user cannot be nominated 2 months in a row.
 * And lastly, the user must have AT LEAST two times the points above (i.e. 10,000 edits)
