People who show up and immediately ask to become and administrator usually aren't going to stick around and help the wiki out. They want admin rights as a status symbol or they're just not prepared for the amount of work it takes to be an admin.

You've been on this wiki for two years. You should have seen at least some of the vandalism that has been committed in the past few months. Almost all of it is from the same person.

If you receive any requests to become an administrator and/or bureaucrat, do not respond to it. You've given this same person admin rights twice in two days and because you gave them bureaucrat rights the second time, they abused those rights and promoted another of their sockpuppet accounts to become a bureaucrat. Both accounts were used to delete a lot of information from this wiki, which will need to be checked. Many of them were article comments by other users, so it wasn't vandalism as was claimed when it was deleted.

In general, it is almost never a good idea to give anyone bureaucrat rights at the same time as admin rights. As you can see, bureaucrat rights can be abused and do a lot of damage.
