I disagree. "...remember MusicBrainz is a meritocracy. The people who do the work decide how things are done. If you want to have a say in that, too, get involved. Learn and become a MajorContributor, too." [excerpt of the wiki MusicBrainzDevelopment linked below]
http://wiki.musicbrainz.org/MusicBrainzDevelopment Those people that put the most work into the project should have the larger say in what happens with the guidelines and how things work. They are after all putting in their time and effort in. Why should someone how barely edits have the "same" say as a major contributor? This is not a democracy.

You cannot weight someone's opinions more heavily based on the number of edits they perform. I'm not saying they don't deserve credit for putting in their hard work, but I don't think we should be handing the guidelines over to the highest modder. If styleguides were decided by the top 10 modders only, then we wouldn't have these mailing lists...
