Requests for Comment/A request to add more admins and stewards

Hi, I am LegoMaster, and I am a wiki creator and autopatroller. I always wanted to request admin rights, but I saw [ this page's edit history], and saw that there are not many users who are voting on the page. I sent an email to John Lewis, with the text about the concern of the lack of admins and stewards, and Lewis just said "Admins are elected by the community" which did not fix the problem. The Requests for permissions page is just a page with very little edit history recently except the request made by Fukahire.

The English Wikipedia has 1,179 administrators in 18 years, and that's an average of 65.5 administrators a year. Miraheze Meta has only administrators in 3 years, and that's an estimated of only 3-4 admins per year. Think about that. 65.5 admins per year versus 3-4 admins per year. That's a problem that we need to fix. We have a total of users currently. Despite the percentage of how many users are admins are lower that the English Wikipedia (On the English Wikipedia, the ratio of a user being an admin is one out of 9102.45 users, and on Miraheze Meta, the ratio of a user being an admin is one out of 5824.41 users), the rate of users who are likely to spam will increase in the next few years or so. See the block list for the stats.

For the stewards section, the Wikimedia Foundation has 36 stewards in 18 years currently, and that's an average of 2 stewards per year. Miraheze has 4 stewards in 3 years, and that's an average of 1.333 stewards per year. As the possibility that more open proxies are discovered, and more disruptive users go and sign up, we need more stewards to track the direction of the disruptive user and determine if the user should be locked.

Administrators section: Proposal 1
More administrators are needed to govern the wiki and handle users who are spamming.

Administrators section: Proposal 2
The number of admins are enough to govern this wiki.

Stewards section: Proposal 1
We need more stewards to lock disruptive users.

Stewards section: Proposal 2
The number of stewards are enough to handle the messiness and disruption of the wiki.
