::::I'm on 15m's side here, and I trust that Kryten will be checking in enough to make use of the user rights. If any user on this site has a body of work that warrants an exception to the rule, it would be Kryten. {{User:Chitalian8/Sig}} 03:06, 6 March 2018 (UTC)

:::::I don't think it's that much of a problem if a user with those extra rights becomes semi-active or inactive. They're not part of the staff, they don't have any responsibility, so they don't HAVE to be active. They can edit whenever they'd like. Therefore, I don't think we should remove those rights when they become inactive. Unlike staff members, we don't need to set a limit to the amount of users who can get those rights, so it doesn't matter if inactive users have them. It's basically just an extra tool for people who provide good work for the wiki. And yes, staff members usually move/delete a page within 24 hours, but I remember from my non-staff days that it was pretty annoying to mark something for deletion/move and having to wait until someone actually did it, instead of doing it myself. {{User:TheSilentHero/Sig}} 17:59, 6 March 2018 (UTC)

:::::"which are only given to active users who have shown themselves to be responsible and conduct themselves in a exemplary manner"
::::::This doesn't sound like something that's really revokable, regardless of activity. I'm still the same person and will hold my edits to the same standard -- and I'd expect the same of past staff members too.
::::::I don't want to not be able to ''help'', I want to not be in a position of ''authority''. I've advocated for a ''long'' time that delete/move are janitor-level tools that should be extended to everyone who can be trusted with them, elections not really necessary -- and the obvious solution to it being "unfair" that other longtime editors don't have these rights yet is...well, give it to them. You're the bureaucrat now, that's what your job is.
::::::"nor any other wikia" -- I don't quite get what you mean. I see this kind of thing ''a lot'' -- I'm actually not familiar with wikis ''demoting'' inactive staff, although I'm sure some do.{{User:KrytenKoro/Sig}} 18:26, 6 March 2018 (UTC)
:::::::NINJA'd by TSH -- yeah, basically that. I would trust any of our previous mods (unless for some reason we've banned one or two?) to continue with janitorial work.{{User:KrytenKoro/Sig}} 18:26, 6 March 2018 (UTC)
