do you know what a bureaucrat is?

a bureaucrat is just an admin with about two extra rights; to appoint new admins and bureaucrats to the wiki. also, bureaucrats cannot lose their rights unless they step down themselves or they are inactive for a considerable amount of time (usually about a year or so)

it is not very wise to give the new admin appointed bureaucrats rights. i think what you meant to suggest was that people would vote for those users for the new admin post that will most likely be available.
