Wikipedia:WikiProject community rehabilitation/Idea/Appoint more Autoreviers

Having more Autoreviewers benefits the project in various ways but in particular it reduces pressure at newpage patrol. I've recently started appointing Wikipedia:Autoreviewers, anyone can nominate another editor, its a painless process with a fairly clear admission criteria (75 articles created - understanding of notability and BLP). My experience is that content creators like to be made autoreviewers and to be able to post the userbox or topsymbol thingy on their page. I think that a drive to appoint more autoreviewers would also be a very positive way to build the community. Ϣere SpielChequers 15:37, 28 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Can't say that I agree, and in fact I strongly oppose this. I would favor elimination of the Autoreviewer group as a whole as there have been several problems with unfit articles being created en mass by autoreviewers. When I do new page patrol I like to know that the articles I am patrolling come from all of the community, and that a select group of elites do not get to bypass the doublecheck that NPP provides.
