Most admins won't consider promoting another user to admin unless the other user displays at least a working knowledge of a wiki's basic functions. Editing pages, infoboxes, making pages, uploading images, etc.

And yes, each wiki does have different rules. Read them and follow them. If you have any questions, ask an admin.
