Best fan writer should be about the value of the total contribution, not quantity. As you pointed out, the Internet allows anyone to become a self-promoter. But Sturgeon's Law still applies, fan or not. It's quality, not quantity. It's the value to the fan-base, not who shouts the loudest.
Many fans want to be writers. I would argue that your "Robert's Rules" essays qualify you on the basis of both quality and value. Everything else you pointed out is just icing on the cake.
