Ah, okay. Let me explain. Before there was a Bureaucrat that tried to take over the wiki. He took away the rights of every Admin, including me. Bureaucrat rights are hard to get rid of because Bureaucrats can't take away the rights of a Bureaucrat, but they can take away the rights of an Admin. It happened during when I was an Admin. Banning a Bureaucrat doesn't mean anything, since they can actually unban themselves.

But do you get my point? If a Bureaucrat simply goes crazy, it's going to be very hard to stop it. So I'm suggesting not to get too many Bureaucrats on this wiki. All a Bureaucrat is is an Admin who can give other people Rollback and Admin rights. It's basically an Admin level 2.

Bureaucrats are basically Admins, they are just in charge of getting people new rights.
