Forum:From Rollback to Administrator
I'd like to discuss the benefits that a person would receive from becoming an administrator. It's just that I feel that a promotion from rollback to administrator is a really big step up. Not sure whether this belongs here, or if this will ever be taken to consideration, but it would be nice to have a couple more tools without necessarily becoming an admin. Otherwise I would have nominated myself for administrator-ship, but I'm not exactly sure whether I'd be ready to hold such rights if my nomination was approved.
In any case I feel the only benefits I'd receive from being an administrator would be to delete unneeded files / pages and to block vandals, trolls and sockpuppets.
And... exactly how many tool buttons do admins have that rollbackers don't? It would explain a lot if I knew.
I guess the real reason why I'm asking this is because if I were to nominate myself for be nominated for administration, I wouldn't be able to give a good impression as to how I'd benefit from becoming one. Sometimes I feel that you don't know how to be something until you've actually became it. It was the same with me nominating myself for rollback, but that wasn't such a big step up.
