IMO the old way of promoting should be expanded to
include nominations by
current Admins. And all nominations should be
accepted with a single
"seconded" by another Admin unless there is somebody
(Admin or not) on the
list that disagrees. <evil>If and when there is
disagreement we can just drop
the nomination and not even tell the person that
they were nominated.</evil>
We can continue to yell and scream whenever a
controversial user asks to be an
Admin (like we are now) but uncontroversial users
who tend to almost always
work nicely with others and follow NPOV (like the
ones I listed, IMO) should
be promoted semi-automatically via nominations by
current Admins.
But we should tell them /right after/ their accounts
are upgraded just so they
don't freak-out and think that a developer goofed
and made all users Admins.
CRY HAVOC!
Sorry, I'm feeling particularly Evil (TM) tonight.
hum Evil Mav (TM), I have an angelic question...(may I
?)
How do you plan exactly this semi-automatic sysop
granting to remain "secret" (unknown) to the candidate
provided that it has to be backed-up by two sysops,
and not to rejected by other sysops ? (hence to be
public somehow)
Hum...is there another list hidden somewhere just for
sysop I am not aware of ? Or is it that being non
sysop, I should not be reading this list ?
:-)))
