If something is truly so bad for the community and all the administrators agree, that's a bunch of opposing votes. Then you'll have the people who read the admins' reasoning and agree with it. There's really no chance for something as negative as some people fear to happen. And again, Wikia Terms of Use will prevent anything negative happening to the wiki or the community itself. If anything leads to something negative happening within the community, Wikia Terms of Use can also protect that. I don't see why everyone is in fear that this would have negative impacts, seeing as the policy has never been put into use, and more or less never will need to be. What DOES it take away though? A tool that can only be used when 12 specific users who can never agree on anything are in full agreement? Removing such a tool is virtually useless. Why would you want it out of the way?
