This is another one perception that got it wrong..
Merit point is to given point to good poster or people that deserved it with your available value.. Not turning it to become a politic about it.
And gain more by telling you are active bla bla and gain a source of it and start abusing it as you now has the power to doing so..
Not that I'd say that you are gonna abuse it.. but it is already abused if this kind of application is posted here without legit and guaranteed reasons.
if you read the memo about merit this kind of application are totally welcomed. and i think Ludbega is well placed to be elligible. he is active in the french section and make good thread, he is not a spammer.
For me Ludbega is totally in position to be elligible as a french speaking merit creator. As i don't think there is one now.
