Ehhh, I dunno. Adoption works on consensus. In the presence of an active admin, I think that a non-admin user coooould adopt the wiki (to admin+bureaucrat), as long as every party (including the existing admin) agrees that it's for the best - that's important, so make sure there's a link to a very public discussion on the matter.

Adoption is a versatile process. The main factor that inhibits otherwise valid requests is a lack of established community consensus: if everyone agrees on something, it'll probably go through. Of course I could be talking outta my bum. Feel free to correct me.
