User blog:Drew1200/No More Patroller Requirements for RfA

We have decided to remove the patroller rights requirement from requests for administrator. The main purpose of this requirement was to ensure that the candidate had sufficient editing experience, specifically in meeting the 300 mainspace edit requirement. However, this was inconsistent with the mentality of the community and the tone of the policy who both make patroller sound more like a set of rights for those who are major editors. We don't want to make it a requirement for administrators to be "major editors", we just want to make sure that they are familiar with the mainspace.

Therefore, those wishing to run for administrator who are not currently holding patroller rights, but have at least 300 mainspace edits are now eligible. Good luck, guys.
