Forum:Origin of administrator nomination process

I've created a new page, Tardis:User rights (text is from another wiki I use), to help make it easier and clearer for people to request or be nominated to become an administrator and give other users the opportunity to support or disagree with the nominations, allowing a week for the nominations to be commented on. Any comments/ideas?--GingerM 18:35, 5 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Do you really think that we need any more bureaucrats? We have 9 already, so it's not likely we're going to need any more in the near future. 16:41, 6 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Maybe not, but I still think that users should have a chance to nominate themselves and become administators/bureaucrats if they want to. Also, a lot of the 9 bureaucrats are inactive at the moment.--GingerM 17:04, 6 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Well I've nominated myself, I'm always on here...and am determined to stop the people who continually vandalise and create new pointless pages...--Tangerineduel 18:18, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
