RfA Reform
editI attempted to fix RfA in 2011. After reading through over 300 RfAs and doing a lot of other research into the different areas, I came to the conclusion that it was not broken. It's letting good candidates in and keeping bad candidates out. What needs work is its perception, so if there's a good PR firm out there who want to improve how RfA looks to the casual editor for free, please do contact me. Other things I managed to do on the subject of RfAs.
