The only different between admin and bureaucrat is promoting content mod and admin. And you said promoting existing staff is not enough I assume you are talking about direct promotion from user to admin, if yes I can talk to you about this right here later. You keep thinking that looks like only staff can deal with the bad edits and hostile to anon, staff are users with more power and regular users can also fix the bad edits, and no need to blame staff if they cant catch and correct them in time. Wiki itself is for everyone to edit, it content may not complete and accurate as works from expert or hired editor, but slowly build by the people, and when we remove them, no matter good or bad, it just give our staff more work.

For years my policy is building a large staff pool (unlike very limited number of admin and mod in other wiki) and it is ok to find more. Admin can promote their mods without my approval, of course it is better to let that user talked with us first. On bureaucrat side, I can tell you why I no longer promote user to admin directly if you are interested.

Gaka actived the anon block during event and naturally I will let him turn that off himself and maybe remind him later (or see any reason to extent it). Unless someone start that after event sure i will turn that off myself.
