The top of the page states: "This page is where you can request administrator and/or bureaucrat rights on communities without an active admin and/or bureaucrat team". This read to me that a community without a bureacrat team could be claimed (or the position, at least) by any active member of that wiki who fits the criteria. That being said, the guidelines state: "Admins have been inactive for 60 days or more".

I'm unsure if the "guideline" is just that, as opposed to a hard rule, or only applicable if one is after the admin position in specific, or whether I've misunderstood the opening line with its "and/or" and it means something else than what it seems to imply. I'd be interested to know what the precise rule on this is, but it would be nice for the wiki to have an active bureaucrat again, too.
