Interstate Wiki talk:Site Administration

Wikipedia? Really?
I'd like to contest a pair of rules you've put up here. While I don't really care about administration, I know from experience that continuing to restrict it to Wikipedia's editors will be a huge mistake down the road. There a lot of editors on Wikia who are much better for a Wikia wiki than a Wikipedian. There are Wikia users whose edit counts and contributions dwarf those of some decent Wikipedia users. Telling them in the future that they cannot have administrative rights on the Interstate Wiki because they prioritized the Interstate Wiki over some other wiki (Wikipedia) would be incredibly backwards. At the same time, there are plenty of Wikipedia SysOps who would surely join up for the power and then do nothing. It's called a WikiCat, I believe, and you seem to be condoning it with the "automatic" policy. Also, it is painfully obvious that the recent vandalism was performed by a Wikipedian who cared about the Interstate page on Wikipedia. Anybody else would have come up with something other than "Copyright infringement." 01:27, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
