You are correct that wikias are community owned projects. Founders, admins, bureaucrats, etc. simply have a few extra tools and responsibilities; they are still part of that community. On some wikias bureaucrats promote other users as they wish, but on many there are either set criteria to be promoted, and/or open community votes for promotions. The latter is ideal. In the case of a community with no active admins/bureaucrats, the community should decide who to promote to leadership. This is why adoptions require community discussions. Wendy, the community needs to stop owning projects and let founders own them. I've said if anyone disagrees with me, don't fall for it. I'm not silly about it and it's not nonsense.
