As suggested by User:Kevin Rector, I would nominate User:Hippietrail, User:Polyglot and User:Paul G to be bureaucrats. But I suggest doing some kind of vote, a "one vote each" type thing, and if Ec fancies having an extra bureaucrat around, he can "promote" one of them
- I accept my nomination. Thank you. — Paul G 17:05, 3 May 2005 (UTC)
- I also accept my nomination. Eclecticology was doing a fine job though. So I don't think I'll be doing a lot of assigning sysops. I also fail to see why we need 4 bureaucrats? Polyglot 13:27, 6 May 2005 (UTC)
- It's not a matter of needing 4 bureaucrats. Clearly we don't need 4. However, Eclecticology has been missing in action for several weeks now and no one knows where he is, or if he's ever coming back. So clearly we need at least one new bureaucrat. I think a better question is why not have 4 bureaucrats? The actual function of a bureaucrat is fairly minimal, but it is one of the small ways that the community can recognize the valuable contributions of those who have been selected.

- I would prefer to see Hippietrail or Paul or both promoted to Bureaucrat. Other things are going on in my life right now that I have to tend to (starting a small business next to a full time job). I find I'm contributing a lot less than I used to. I'll probably be back though and I still care a lot about this project, but it wouldn't make a lot of sense to be a (sleeping) bureaucrat.

- I seem to be back from my Wikileave, so if it's felt that another Bureaucrat is still needed, I'll accept. One of the reasons to kind of decline was that I'm a bureaucrat on nl.wiktionary since the beginning, but I'm not all that active over there after all. I prefer to recognize and nominate worthy candidates over actually promoting them anyway... :-)

- I also think Eclecticology is doing a fine job. I'm very flattered and quite surprised to see the votes for me here. I don't think we need very many bureaucrats at all but another might be helpful for times when our primary bureaucrat is away. All of the nominated candidates are very good and I would support any of them. Paul G seems very interested so I won't accept my nomination for now until it's really felt that more bureaucrats are needed. Thanks. — Hippietrail 12:13, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)
