While democracy is good and all in real life, running a wiki is alot different from a nation, allow votes and a whole heap of problems arise (people using alties to sway the vote their way, inexperianced users being voted in, people being voted in because of their popularity and not their actual admining skill, and would also most defanently cause arguing and infighting on the wiki due to differing opinions on who should be admin and who shouldent). Maybe their are some special case wikis where this voting system woudl work, but for the vast majority of wiki's I'd say a system like this would just cause more bad than good.
