{{ShardofTruth|time=19:18, 29 November 2015 (UTC)|talk=This is not really about who deserves to be admin and who doesn't or if we have enough admins or not. I simply don't think there is a reason to keep these tools from contributors just to validate the admin position.<br>

I also agree that harm can be done with these tools but as with any other edits they can be reverted. I'm also not saying that admin and mods positions should be abolished because the staff should remain the first to be contacted in case of questions or when conflicts need to be resolved.}}

{{Webber22|text=But that's exactly what's going on.  Again, I'm not disagreeing with your idea.  But those tools are one of the things that make mod and admin positions unique.  Giving them out renders those positions (at least mod) obsolete.  And look at the current admin situations - we kind of already have too many.  We only need like...two or three, ideally ones who are perfectly suited for that kind of thing like you and Kryten.  The rest?  Move them down to mod.  The ones who have been inactive for a long time, I'm honestly not even sure they'll need any of these tools, and when/if they return, they could simply ask one of the current admins for their permissions re-implemented.  It's a crass term, but you basically just kind of have to trim the fat if you want to optimize the userbase.  And for the record, the users whom you suggested should have these revved up permissions, I DO believe they should just be bumped up to moderators.  It'd be kind of a clutter the other way anyhow.  That's just what I think, and I think we just need to be efficient about it.}}
