Forum:Inquiry of Administrator Appledash

This is an inquiry against Bureaucrat Appledash.

The work she has done for the wiki throughout the years is commendable, and commands respect. However, an able administrator is more than just their edits. They serve the community they were elected to represent, and when they no longer present the wiki in a adequate manner, an inquiry is necessary. For Icy, the reasons behind this are as follows:


 * Immature handling of the Dovewing debacle
 * As at the time, the sole head of the official wwiki twitter
 * Refusal to listen to the community at large, the wiki’s audience
 * Blockage of all those who disagreed
 * Behavior unfitting of an administrator
 * Violation of the tenants of a wiki, which is the definition of consensus
 * Concentration of power over an extended period of time; projects should be lead by different people
 * A lead in every project; leader of three
 * Failure to improve and change over time, despite community members raising valid concerns several times in the past
 * Does not assume good faith with users new and old, a vital tenant of our policy
 * Frequently has confrontations with other staff in public areas such as chat, presenting a disunified wiki
 * Especially important because admins are supposed to portray good character and be looked up to, and act accordingly
 * Which also validates complaints about the wiki to the public community, though those concerns are never acknowledged
 * Presents unprofessionality on a common basis
 * Comes off as cold and uncaring to users
 * Shows bias to certain users over others
 * Instills fear in the community, preventing true consensus of opinion from being reached
 * Has bouts of inactivity, and refuses to delegate

It is the duty of the editors and the community to decide when an administrator no longer is fit to hold the role, though regrettably so. This is not a personal slight, nor a rash decision. These issues have persisted over a long period of time, and are not changing. I ask the community to consider this.
