Forum:Vote for New Bureaucrats

We need to appoint new Wiki-Bureaucrats, the rank above Administrator. With Werthead's resignation, we currently have no Bureaucrats. The main difference with Bureaucrats is that they can make other Administrators into Bureaucrats.

This will not be a poll but a "community vote" by all editors.

At the moment, we have five active Administrators already:


 * The Dragon Demands
 * User:Gonzalo84
 * User:QueenBuffy
 * User:Greater good
 * User:Ser Patrek - really "the Boy Who Cried Direwolf", changed his name and recently on wiki-break.

The workload is getting pretty large and I actually don't think that one single person should fill in as the "Bureaucrat" of Game of Thrones Wiki, as he did. It's too big for one single "head" Admin or single Bureaucrat.

My proposed outline is basically that we follow the "Triarchy" model of Volantis: vote for three Bureaucrats who will run things jointly.

So I propose that the three new Bureaucrats we vote in be: The Dragon Demands (by wiki-points the highest ranked Admin), Gonzalo84 (by wiki-points the second-highest rated Admin, who has been an Administrator since Season 2, and who personally suggested I be an Admin back in the day), and QueenBuffy (the only person who has been an Administrator since Season 1 who is still active, and a "Wikia Star"/Bureaucrat on the True Blood Wiki).

Now we have been very short-handed, so afterwards, the new Bureaucrats will promote up several regular editors to Administrator status (if you want the job).

Every vote counts to build consensus. Please vote responsibly.--The Dragon Demands (talk) 20:35, October 13, 2014 (UTC)
