Bureaucrats
Hi Brion,

I've asked SB to accept a nomination for bureaucrat, but he's not sure there's a need. We currently have one active and two sporadically active bureaucrats here. (EC is inactive.) I was wondering if you think there might be some extra work due to the universal login that would justify one or even two more. With all the minor contributors we have in comparison to Wikipedia, there might be a number of accounts that need to be renamed, no?

Thanks for you advice! DAVilla 16:23, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
