Thanks for clarifying, Ravi. I'm glad the tawiki community has found a
system that works.
Is there a process for the older admin accounts to go through review as
well?

Hi Anirudh,
Thanks for sharing the recent developments in enwiki regarding sysop
selection. As far as I have checked, fewer sysops getting elected every
year seems to be a global trend.
After the first three months period, bureaucrats automatically renew
adminship
* For next 6 months
* After that, for next year
* After that, permanent adminship is granted.
Sysops don't need to go through another election or file a request. It
automatically gets renewed as long as there are no major unresolved
complaints against the sysop which merits a desysop discussion.
I am also adding the qualifying criteria to nominate one for adminship:
A potential candidate seeking adminship should have
* At least 1000 mainspace edits
and/or
* At least 50 articles creation
and should have
* contributed actively in at least some of the months in the past one
year in general, be cordial with other users
* in general, contributed to the overall development of Tamil
Wikipedia by helping other users, conducting workshops etc.,
* in general, show inclination to learn Tamil Wikipedia rules, culture
and abide by that.
In general indicates one's general behavior excusing one or two incidents
where they behaved to the contrary.
All the 10 candidates got elected with almost unanimous votes.
All candidates who got their adminshipin January 2019 have renewed it for
the next 6 months.
This shows that the community was willing to trust in many users but was
limited by a lack of process to elect them.
Ravi
