User blog comment:Meighan/New Tools to Start & Grow Your Wiki/@comment-1091639-20110805205728

At first I thought this was a good idea, especially the Wiki Progress Bar, but the more I use it, the more I hate it. Makes the admins see another thing differently than other users. So in the event a 'regular' Special Page breaks, I'll never know this unless I log out or get notified about it by someone else (believe it or not but some admins actually DO customize Special Pages as well). Won't even start talking about how dysfunctional the Dashboard is in dark color themes. What annoys me more, is the fact that the color theme is not meant to be pulled from the theme in the future, as stated in the Admin Dashboard FAQ - I guess I'll have to do the modifications myself then.

Good job, you just made the maintenance routine on the wikis I patrol and edit a lot harder without offering anything in exchange. While I tried to adapt and be constructive about the previous features, this one is just so bad that I'd rather have it disabled whatsoever.
