Recently, I learned that Internet Brand employes working on WT website as admins recently
appointed few new admins on the site without any community consensus. Giving admin
privileges to those new WT admins at new WV website is a very bad idea...

Subject: [Wikivoyage-l] Initial userrights
Hi everyone,
In the migration process, one of the questions that has come up is the initial assignment
of the administrator rights. Our current plan is to assign administrator rights to anyone
who currently has them on the legacy Wikivoyage wiki (and I'm certainly open to
expanding that to include the legacy Wikitravel wiki, I just don't know how many
people are in that group that aren't already wikivoyage administrators).
I wanted to toss that out as a discussion point here and see what the general feeling was
about that as an opening position? Am I way off base? Is there something else that would
work better? My main interest here is a lightweight system that will work to get the
project launched.
