==Creating new page and editing==
Not sure of how we should go about this. There seem to be a lot of bureaucrats and admins who don't use WikiChristian at all anymore and haven't for months or years. I'm all for just reverting them back to simply normal users. I'd be interested to see what others think, but in the meantime I'm keen on at least removing bureaucrat priveleges - which I'll now do. What do others think? --[[User:Graham grove|Graham grove]] 16:07, 25 July 2008 (PDT)
:Bureaucrat is huge power. I agree that it should be only given with great care and constantly re-evaluated. Adminship, however, is not as vast, so I'll wait to hear from others too. --[[User:Aquatiki|Aquatiki]] 16:13, 25 July 2008 (PDT)
::Thanks for your two-cents Robert. I reckon we should sit down together (well, figuratively speaking) with Prab and work out some ground-rules for being a bureaucrat. All of these technical wiki things like bureaucrats and sysops are things which I didn't really know anything about until the last week or two when I decided to read about them - terrible really isn't it; I guess I've always been so focussed on trying to get content onto WikiChristian that I've neglected some other parts. I reckon it is important to work out (even though WikiChristian is ecumenical and regular editting +/- sysop-ship should be open to all users) if there is some sort of theological specifics that we consider to be essential to be bureaucrat of this site. --[[User:Graham grove|Graham grove]] 16:33, 25 July 2008 (PDT)
:::If they do ever come back, they can always ask for the bureaucrat right back. If they do become inactive again, we'll just do it all over again. Do you think we should have a certain amount of time we should remove that right? Maybe, if a bureaucrat isn't active or doesn't edit for 6 months, we remove their rights. Thoughts? -- [[User:RyanCross|<font color="navy" face="Times New Roman">Ryan†Cross</font>]] ('''''[[User talk:RyanCross|<font color="navy" face="Times New Roman">talk</font>]]''''') 20:17, 25 July 2008 (PDT)
:::: I think a b'crat is someone with the hand on the wheel, never missing more than 24 hours without signing off to someone else. A b'crat has to power to give and removed adminship. Admins, however, can have seasons of business, come and go. Six months, without written explanation, sounds right to me for them. --[[User:Aquatiki|Aquatiki]] 03:43, 26 July 2008 (PDT)
<-- Ah, I see. That reminds me, may I become a bureaucrat? :) I think I've shown I'm active here. If not, that's certainly fine with me. And don't worry, I have bureaucrat experience. ;) -- [[User:RyanCross|<font color="navy" face="Times New Roman">Ryan†Cross</font>]] ('''''[[User talk:RyanCross|<font color="navy" face="Times New Roman">talk</font>]]''''') 04:03, 26 July 2008 (PDT)
: I think that there should be no problem you being a bureaucrat, but first I reckon I'd like to chat with Prab about bureaucrat rules etc. Also, would you mind perhaps emailing me and Robert and Prab and letting us know about your walk with Jesus and your Christian background. --[[User:Graham grove|Graham grove]] 05:37, 26 July 2008 (PDT)
::I'd be very happy to. You may do as you wish. Oh, but there is one problem. The last time I checked, [[Special:Emailuser]] is not working, and it says it's not even a special page, but it is still a blue link. I won't be able to email unless the situation if fixed. -- [[User:RyanCross|<font color="navy" face="Times New Roman">Ryan†Cross</font>]] ('''''[[User talk:RyanCross|<font color="navy" face="Times New Roman">talk</font>]]''''') 05:44, 26 July 2008 (PDT)
