The "hook"

Everything here so far looks good. But I think there's one more thing that could be added to the admin section: a "hook", or a "gimmick". What does a potential admin have that no current admin does? Maybe it's having a timezone that no one else can easily match, being able to undo vandalism hours before anyone else would have seen it. Maybe it's high knowledge of a specific subject that others lack, such as knowing who's notable or the innards of game physics. As more people are promoted to admin, the harder it is to have a unique trait, but it's certainly an asset if one can be found. Toomai Glittershine 19:09, July 27, 2010 (UTC)
