I'm thinking perhaps sectioning the administrative duties? We have a whopping 16 admins, a quarter of that amount is bureaucrats, 4 content mods, and 13 discussion mods.
16 admins means that we can evenly create 4 teams of 4 admins, each with a different purpose on the wiki. On a basic level, all admins would be required to perform edits (already implemented).
We can have a group of admins that solely do edits + CRTs/forums, a group that does edits + disciplinary action (searching the site and chat for rule violators, assessing the rule violation thread closely and identifying sock/bad behavior, being more vigilant for edit vandalism, as Ant believes this is a dangerous problem), a group for edits + media management (Rendering images, image requests, versus match addition/removal), and a group that performs edits + wiki projects such as the NarutoForums project, article cleanups, that sort of stuff, and possibly can help organize revision projects for verses.
I think this would promote more efficiency in the wiki, as it would divide up the tasks between admins, leading to smoother and faster operation. It's already basically implemented, as we have admins like Repp , A6 , Darkanine , and Kami who do file/image/image rendering/etc. work, as they have such a tag for the things that they do (with the exception of Rep).
This isn't to suggest however, that this forces people to only fulfill their assign roles, as we know this already doesn't happen, but rather it would promote focus to key areas in the wiki. Of course the non-admin staff can assist wherever they have the permissions to do so.
I spoke to Ant who thought this was a forceful suggestion and would create further unwillingness to work, so I figured I'd bring it up and ask if this is the case.
