| abstract | - The Inquisitorius's Meeting Twenty-four, to be held at 23:00 UTC on Saturday, April 18th (that's Saturday, April 18th at 7PM Eastern Daylight Time in North America), will be a desperate attempt at reorganization and rallying before the Wookieepedia community steps in to take control of the FAN process again. March was the Inq's least active month in a long while. There has been a steady decline in the number of nominations that pass muster, and this is due to little more than inattentiveness on the part of the Inquisitors—the number of support votes on articles from Inqs has steadily declined from 154 votes in January to 54 in March. Nonetheless, the community continues to write and nominate articles, and there are currently forty-four nominations sitting on the page, some almost completely untouched for weeks on end. We have to do something. I propose a lengthy discussion by any Inqs who can possibly attend (I apologize for the short notice but feel that the time frame is a litmus test in terms of dedication to the site) on how we can change this organization into something workable. Among the topics I would like to discuss: Do your damn job, part umpteen – I'll admit, even before I took my leave of the site for about a month, I barely edited the FAN page out of sheer disinterest. Well, I'm back, and ready to get my hands dirty. At the same time as I am going over the FAN finding articles to review and vote for, I see a serious lack of interest from the majority of my fellow Inquisitors. Their reasons are manifold, but one fact remains: there is an obligation to do at least some of the work we agreed to when we accepted membership in the Inq. I believe that everyone should take a hard look at whether their name should really remain on that list, and if so, whether they believe they're doing enough to earn it. New membership – With Inqs leaving the site and the group like rats from a burning ship, there is a significant hole in terms of the number of Inqs who are actually active. Meanwhile, in the AgriCorps and elsewhere, there are highly active users of considerable competence who'd be solid candidates for the job. I feel we should ask, if not outright beg, a few of these users to assist us in trying to get this back on track. Discussion on changes in policy – Should these measures not work in revitalizing the Inq and its function, I want the Inquisitors themselves to lead the charge in terms of site-level reform. Whether it be a change in the voting requirements, allocation of FAN voting rights to AC members, or even a complete restructuring of the FAN approval process, the Inqs are the ones to know what is required. — Graestan(Talk) 20:52, 5 April 2009 (UTC) Inquisitors: Feel free to create a normal meeting agenda below, with article review and other items.
