User blog comment:Waterkai/Considering Applications: An Attempt Without Bias/@comment-3008090-20140502125802/@comment-13970942-20140504062749

Replying to Ginseng, it's my experience that many talented writers refused to post to this site over the "OP Character" issue. I think letting the site backslide opens the door to alot of the problems that used to plague it so much in the past; namely problems with grammar, stub articles, and a lack of creativity and variety.

Anyway, I think my feelings have been adequetly expressed by Waterkai on this subject. Although it is alot of work, I think admins should make a commitment to explaining why they deny an application... furthermore other users should be more willing to assist in fixing such articles. If necessary perhaps more responsibility could be shared on this matter.
