They are not more important to site direction. A wiki serves its readers, not its editors. Edits are important for a wiki to survive, but the editor's reward is creation of a successful information respository... not some sanctioned tyranny of the minority.

If someone doesn't like that, tough rocks; can't accept just the aspects of wikis that one likes, and dustbin the rest.
