We believe Lériendil would make a good admin because of their dedication to improving existing articles, especially neglected articles like individual temperament pages, and edonoi (nonoctave equal tuning) pages. Lériendil created, and maintains, the temperament infobox, which helps elevate temperament pages to the same level of importance and navigability as EDO pages, a very welcome addition for RTT fans. Lériendil is the founder of, and a highly active contributor to, WikiProject TempClean, which has been doing great work expanding and beautifying pages on individual regular temperaments to give them the quality and depth of coverage they deserve, for such an important component of regular temperament theory (the temperaments themselves!) In WikiProject TempClean, Lériendil has demonstrated the ability to unite, inspire, and organise fellow editors to carry out coordinated maintenance work on neglected pages. This ability is something very valuable to have on an admin team. I think that Lériendil could breathe a lot of life and goodwill into the wiki.

We believe ArrowHead294 would make a good admin because of his extensive maintenance work. He has written documentation for dozens of templates on the wiki, helping other editors to understand how to utilise those ~~temperaments~~, and how to debug them. He has also done the painstaking word of renaming dozens of articles to use the correct capitalisation, the correct hyphenation, etc. to match the wiki's conventions, which makes the wiki much easier to search for readers (they don't have to try to remember what capitalisation or what symbol to type into the search box). ArrowHead294 has also worked to locate several instances of wanted pages (lots of red links to the same place), which are actually just different names for existing pages, and has created the necessary redirects to make them worj. It goes without saying how much that has helped improve navigability. ArrowHead294 has also coded, drafted, published and maintained several modules and several templates, which have been a big help in automating the more monotonous parts of page creation, so that editors can be freed up to spend more time writing the main body of the page. This has allowed the relatively small wiki community to punch above its weight in terms of the scale of its ambition amd comprehensiveness. As with Fredg999 and Lériendil, ArrowHead294's willingness to do the mundane, often uncelebrated, but essential day-to-day maintenance work that elevates the wiki to the next level, makes him an excellent candidate for admin.

So, our proposal (the wiki editors on Discord), is that Fredg999, Lériendil and ArrowHead294 should be promoted to admin. For the reasons stated above, we believe they would make great additions to the admin team. Would you be in favour of this too?
