AT this point, maybe VSTF. I've seen them add the "Bot" to themselves to cleanup mass spam and stuff like that. Adding an expiry to their "addition" means that they don't have to "remember" to remove it. Instead, they have to "remember" to set an expiry since after cleanup, they can go to other wikis without worryinig "oh did I forget to remove the bot status".

I also could see that on bigger wikis such as the Spongebob wiki, where admin confirmation is live (and probably ending soon). They could set an expiry and the community could decide to say "keep" and the bureaucrats could extend their userrights to another 3 months or so.

Long story short, VSTF, staff, and probably high WAM scoring (and by extension bigger) wikis on a case-by-case basis.
