I actually agree with this guy, but something tells me that at least the admin-candidate MUST have a thousand edits. I'm pretty much "ignorant" to flamewars and stuffs so I'm just gonna do a name calling: Loudmouth1. That lady literally became an admin within ONE edit and that's just so wrong in many ways.

There must be a compromise between having a sufficient amount of edits and being around this wiki for some time, right?

Can't argue with the second half of your statement though. You do have a point. But then, message walls are one thing and the pre-existing staffs should ask the admin candidate of what they'll do, if they are trustworthy, etc. Or something like that.

Still, it's not truly a central wiki staff rule so that's one thing. A wiki with rules is one thing, but everything should follow the central wiki accordingly.
