New Bureaucrat
Currently, the wiki does not have an active Bureaucrat. I believe we need one, since they're the ones who can appoint Sysops, and Fandom would prefer an active Bureaucrat as well.

I think @Omnibender would be a good fit, since they're very active on the wiki and they keep things orderly already.

This idea came about since I was promoted to Sysop by our Wiki Manager (with approval from Fandom as well as another Sysop). I was promoted to help better moderate Discussions, but we had to go directly to the Wiki Manager since Dantman did not respond to my post on his talkpage.

 * Great idea, @Omnibender is a great choice. Although, I suppose @Windstar and @TheUltimate would be equally good candidates. Ninja Of War (talk) 12:06, 6 February 2021 (UTC)

Sorry about ignoring the message on my talkpage. Most of the time people ask to be sysop on my talkpage they are just begging because they want to be an admin even if they aren't suitable. I have never given someone sysop because they asked on my talkpage (that used to count against suitability) so I may not have paid attention to a new sysop message from someone I completely didn't recognize coming from the talkpage system that clips messages off. We used to have a system, kind of like a simple version of Wikipedia's RfA process, where someone proposed sysop for someone and then members of the community gave reasons they supported/opposed the nomination. Though I guess that's not around anymore after several forum system updates. ~ Daniel Friesen (DanTMan, Nadir Seen Fire) (Local Talk &#8285; Animanga Talk) 21:10, 6 February 2021 (UTC)


 * Actually it would be great if someone could create a new RfA system. I've looked all over and the old one is just, gone. Here's what I'm thinking:
 * A basic Narutopedia:Requests for Adminship index listing proposals and how to create one, proposals at Narutopedia:Requests_for_Adminship/{Name}, and Template:RfA stub (or a form/pre-filled page based setup) roughly based on Wikipedia's Wikipedia:WP:RfA system. i.e. A page template for proposals listing who is being nominated, why, links to important references (talk, contribs, etc), and an organized place for the community to support/oppose.
 * The Narutopedia:Sysop should link to the system this time.
 * When a proposal is created a post should be made in the new discussions board so the community can provide rationales for/against the nomination.
 * All current admins should also be notified of the proposal.
