Syalatillesfel, while the lack of new franchise content does mean that there aren't new characters, episodes, or manga volumes to make pages for, this doesn't mean that we can't create new content for the wiki, such as researching the real-life basis of historical characters, or redoing the episode info box, or making the individual pages more accessible. In fact, this is what I would describe as "actively contributing to the wiki," and I'd really like to see us work on something like that.

One of the main roles of the admins for the wiki is to resolve disputes between editors. I didn't mean to imply that you must have vast experience with dispute resolution but if you have dealt with editorial disputes before, I'd love to hear more about it.

I've always made sure to be accessible as an admin and having accessible admins is somethign I want to ensure for the wiki. This is why I made sure to list my contact information on my user page and to make sure that I respond to all commications to me made on the wiki. I am concerned that despite this, you never reached out to me before now about becoming an admin, and instead made the request to staff.I would feel more comfortable with making you an admin if you were to fill out your user profile on the wiki, as that would show that you are open to being accessible to editors and myself

I will certainly agree with any claim that the wiki needs to be added to. However, I haven't seen any new wiki content from you, with all your edits involving moving around existing content to different pages, marking pages for delection despite those pages being tied in to the Read or Die franchise, or rephrasing content in a way that did not fix grammatical or spelling errors or increase readability of the page.

I would also be more comfortable with fulfilling your request if you stated a reason beyond having made numerous edits. As I asked you before, please let me know what you would like to do as an admin that you can't do as an editor. Again, this isn't to say that I wouldn't like to make you an editor, but if you told me a reason such as wanting to contribute content as I described earlier, or even if it was just that you were a fan and wanted to take ownership of this project more, I'd feel much better about fulfilling your request.

Syalatillesfel, please respond to this points, as I would like to have new admins to the wiki. And Wendy, if I'm off-point with any of this thoughts, I'd appreciate it if you let me know.

I look forward to hearing to both of you
