Yeah, but it'd be awesome

I think they're all good choices (except for Ben41, but that's only because I don't know who he is or what kind of person he is)

He's not on the forum, but he's a very good contributor and has made many, many pages. And he seems to be of good character.

Then I'm cool with it

Why is amount of pages built part of the criteria?

Is that a serious question? How do you get promoted to a higher rank ANYWHERE? By what you produce. And since this is a Wiki, what you produce = how much you contribute in the way of information.

Look, I realize you're disappointed, but bitching and whining about it sure as hell isn't a good way to make your case (not in my view, at least).

EDIT: To elaborate, let me put it this way - an admin's job on IMFDB is (among other things) to enforce the formatting standards and ensure that pages meet them. Doing lots of (good) pages demonstrates that a person has mastered the formatting standards, so that they can ensure other people conform to them.

That reminds me to ask Excaliber about how to do that Cell layout on the firearms pages. I know that most of them still need converting and I suck at wiki programming.
