Sure, but we have no idea if that helps and what criteria theymos considers when he appoints new merit sources. If positive comments and support can help and the community feels like the user deserves to become a merit source, they will write their opinions. But I am sure you have noticed there are many applications of users who never got appointed to become merit sources, at least not to our knowledge, and then there are those among us who became merit sources without even applying.

I admit, the support provided by the community regardless of position (DT, merit source, or regular user) does not have much influence on the admin's decision to appoint a new merit source. The admin definitely has his own criteria for selecting who meets the requirements and who is still in the consideration stage, but I know that many applications are still pending at this time. What is clear is that the community will only support it if they think the user's application deserves to be considered and appointed as a new merit source.
