How about the reverse? Are we prepared to grant EN adminship to all Commons admins?

I'm confused. Does vandalism on EN affect commons?

My point was simply that "fair is fair". If you think EN admins should get to be Commons admins automatically, it's only fair to allow Commons admins the same privilege.

I'm dismayed that you see this as a game of tit-for-tat rather than the serious policy and coordination question that it is.

As a practical matter, I believe that most of the commons admins are already administrators on their "home" wikipedias. As I stated in my opening post, I would support granting commons adminship to admins from any of the larger wikipedias, including de and fr and perhaps others.
