As for "performance reviews", this is unnecessary; administrators are volunteer users and should not be obliged to have to meet quotas or performance standards in order to keep their tools. Two months is also far too excessive and will simply drain the community's patience and resources constantly reevaluating admin candidates. Administrators that abuse their tools can be dealt with on a case-by-case basis. —[[User:K6ka|'''<span style="color:#0040FF">k6ka</span>''']] <span title="Canadian!" style="color:red">🍁</span> ([[User talk:K6ka|<span style="color:#0080FF">Talk</span>]] · [[Special:Contributions/K6ka|<span style="color:#0B4C5F">Contributions</span>]]) 15:35, April 7, 2018 (UTC)
:If there is community support for changes to how administratorship is awarded, or any ideas for changing how current admins are evaluated, this would be the proper time and place. For what it's worth, I've seen and heard very little in the years that I've been on TSW regarding regular community dissatisfaction with the way administrators are selected or maintained. I don't discount that there could be users here who have been silently dissatisfied with the way things are, but the Community Discussions forum is and has always been open for proposals to change the status quo.
:Regarding this specific set of proposals, however, I would have to say that I am '''strongly opposed'''. As k6ka has mentioned, admin selection is not compatible with voting; admins are selected based on skill, experience, and being the "right person" for the job, not based on their popularity or an arbitrary count of supporters versus opponents. Performance reviews might be a worthy idea, but having a review every two months (in other words, six times each year) would be ludicrous. If there are reasons to reconsider a specific administrator's status, there are already ways for the community to formally do this; a performance review is redundant at best, and a massive waste of time at worst. -- '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<span style="color:navy;">LostInRiverview</span>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">talk</font>]] · [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">blog</font>]] · [[Special:Contributions/LostInRiverview|<font color="green">contribs</font>]]</sup>''' 03:00, April 8, 2018 (UTC)
