Wikipedia:Administrators open to recall/Reference material

This page is part of the overall voluntary and unofficial admin recall process and supporting material whose main page can be found at Category:Wikipedia administrators open to recall.

This page is a list of reference material that may be of interest for further reading or research. The pages referenced here are proposals, alternatives, ideas, essays, and so forth, all having to do with administrator removal. Some were developed before this voluntary process was, others after. None have yet (as of late 2007) gained community acceptance. If you know of others, you are strongly encouraged to document them here
