I am seriously concerned about some things. These concerns have arisen in the past month, based on my own going through the process, as well as other events on the Wiki.

It occurs to me that specific qualities should be sought... I am thinking of
 * Responsibility - this is a HUGE one, and it should be a required, proven thing, IMHO.

I may have great skills and great ideas but what if I used them carelessly or irresponsibly? In my case, I believe I did show responsibility in working with Imamadmad before applying. But what if I had done other things that were irresponsible?

'''Skills and ideas can be applied as users. Unless they are used responsibily, and with respect for the community and the community's way of doing things, they should not 'count' to making someone an admin.'''

Two other important qualitative criteria I can see are:
 * Teamwork - does the person play team with others? Do they take suggestions, build on criticisms given? Or do they care more about visibility?
 * Respect - both for other users and for the Ways of the Wiki. Similar to the above. Does the user take time to get to know how things are done, or do they consider their ambitions more important than the ways of the community?

As far as the support percentages and split representation of admins and regular users, I am inclined to agree with Wildones.

As far as having a separate nomination and voting process, I think it's ok too, but the nomination process should be simplified and it seems this is being discussed.
