A solution with a major pitfall. Danny handles a lot of work that
needs doing - dealing with complaints, mainly, and tidying up related
problems, many of which require admin rights. We've only just
surmounted a several-month backlog of these issues thanks to
remarkable volunteer effort*; we don't have the available manpower to
take the only person paid to do it consistently away.
There has to be something wrong. It's not as if the complaints hotline
has suddenly appeared - complaints have been getting handled
successfully for months without so much as a talkpage complaint. However
in this case, it was either an error of judgement on Danny's part (hey,
I'm trying to AGF here), in which case he should acknowledge his mistake
and list the article on Afd, or a contempt for the Wikipedia community
(remember those three Keep Afds?) which is much more worrying.
Given what you've said it would obviously be better for Danny to still
perform admin actions, but if it's a choice between an OTRS backlog and
Danny thinking he can do what he wants and to hell with everyone else,
I'm sorry but OTRS doesn't win.
Cynical
