"One user which most of you dislike, taught me something very important. The Wiki is all about the content, not the people, not the admins, not even the irrelevant comments. It is very disturbing that for the rest of the Bureaucrats, if the comments were removed it would mean their edit count halved, or even reduced to a tenth. And you know the downside about the comments? It is that they barely have an impact in the Wiki in the long term."

You talk about content, then go on to talk about edit counts, I'm not saying there is no correlation between edit count and content because if someone does have a high enough edit count it is obvious that they have been adding content in some way to the wiki, but edit count is in no way a clear indicator of an editor's worth, content wise, to the wiki. Just because I have less main article edits than another editor does not mean that what I have done for the wiki is less than the person with more in any way, shape or form. The only way to evaluate editors is by actually looking at what they have done for the wiki, not looking at a number.
