So long as there is an active Admin, your main option is to ask him, Striker10, for a promotion. And Staff has already told you "He can promote users to admin to help him […] if he wishes" (highlight mine). No one else, not even Staff, will undermine him so long as he is not in violation of ToU.

However, I'll point out that your words "willing to help Striker10 at all costs" can be interpreted as "helping no matter what", and that means doing any and everything you can do *without* being promoted, as well as explaining how to do things he may not know how to do… even *without* a promise of a promotion. That includes linking him to select Help Pages so he can learn. Also make him aware of Community Central as a resource, should he not already know.

Asking others behind his back to promote you is not the sort of thing most Admins take kindly to. Well, other than your wiki's Founder, Martamos. He may have not have edited since April, but last time he logged in was July. Try leaving a message on his Wall. You never know, he just might reply, maybe even in the positive.

Meanwhile, Support Your Local Admin.
