If you encounter that, you can possibly get help to get those articles unstuck. People are not supposed to keep fiefdoms, much of policy prevents it. (and someone with a bit of practice can call in help and clear it up)

But to do that you have to stop being random and start playing Wikipedia game.

Random people don’t have time for that.

Ergo “it is not a project for random editors anymore”.

I want do an edit or addition and be fairly evaluated without having to call higher instances or fight through bureaucracy.

Fair-ish. It really depends. The last few areas I did anything in (I'm not a regular anymore) basically nothing happened except what I wrote, so I guess the quiet parts are really really quiet and you don't get into much trouble at all.
