Early on in the CoD wiki's "history", some users got admin and even b'crat rights without having really proven themselves to be worthy of them. Even to this day at least one of those users is still active and is a very trustworthy person. It's not as if it's always going to be bad, and for new wikis it's often a good move to make admins ASAP.
