As per Wiki policy that all editors are equal, I strongly believe that the featured users section, see [[MediaWiki:Monaco-sidebar|in the MediaWiki:Monaco-sidebar]] is a violation of this policy. It is bias, I have not seen a method yet as to how one's name is placed in this list and when this wiki grows it will unfair to new and old users alike. I feel that this mention is not required and I move to remove this from the sidebar and to replace it with a more relevant and less bias approach, per say, having a link to the list of Crat's and Sysops. This way if an inexperienced user still needs assistance they can still easily find a trusted and helpful user. {{signatures/bonziiznob}} 17:45, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Forums: Index Stellar Garage Contradiction to AEAE

As per Wiki policy that all editors are equal, I strongly believe that the featured users section, see in the MediaWiki:Monaco-sidebar is a violation of this policy. It is bias, I have not seen a method yet as to how one's name is placed in this list and when this wiki grows it will unfair to new and old users alike. I feel that this mention is not required and I move to remove this from the sidebar and to replace it with a more relevant and less bias approach, per say, having a link to the list of Crat's and Sysops. This way if an inexperienced user still needs assistance they can still easily find a trusted and helpful user.

Discussion

Support - As nominator.

Support - Yeah I have seen that thing before but I just took an evil eye to it, it is unfair, but when you do bring up that it does violate AEAE, I say remove it! Well... I can remove it myself, but go on lets have a few more votes instead of me doing it immediately. http://img46.imageshack.us/img46/88/sdwksig.png 18:12, 3 May 2009 (UTC)


Support- AEAE is the way. (I MADE RHYME! =D) http://img266.imageshack.us/img266/2584/daveloposignature.png Page-Talk 18:13, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Support - Agreed. Not to mention that it is rather unnecessary. C.ChiamTalk 13:53, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

Comment - At the moment it operates on the person with the most edits on the Wiki, which is me then Godpower49. Which is an unfair, biased, ambigious and a bad thing. Another problem, it even has it's own widget! There is a widget for "Top Users", how can you remove that? You can't. Well I'm going ahead to remove it from the sidebar. http://img46.imageshack.us/img46/88/sdwksig.png 14:04, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

I got rid of the code but it's still there -.- Stupid cache... http://img46.imageshack.us/img46/88/sdwksig.png 17:29, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
When fails, just re-add it then re-delete it. Does the trick. http://img46.imageshack.us/img46/88/sdwksig.png 18:10, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

Well when i need to talk to other users its just quick.
Godpower49 (TCE) forgot to sign this comment.
Userpages should be "featured" there merely for a couple of users to talk to each other faster (by a mere few seconds)? At the risk of assuming bad faith, it seems that you want it to be there because you were being "featured" there. C.ChiamTalk 13:38, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

Closed - The "Featured Users" section in the sidebar has been removed. C.ChiamTalk 13:08, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
