Finally someone listened!

I personally vote for Plan 3 so to that.

Also, Plan 1 seems like a super nice plan! /sarcasm

Seriously though, leaving "one inactive and one background-worker" at the highest rank, even above the actual managers, is not good management at all! The Bureaucrat rank is not there so that some visiting-once-in-a-long-while people can look cool and mysterious being in that rank, no! It's an actual, functional rank with the purpose of overseeing the whole wiki, like a company's Director (No, not Chairman of the Board like some of you may think, that'd be Central's staff, because we must admit we don't even have complete control over our own Wikia), while the admins are Managers (not Directors). Admins manage the wiki directly, part by part, while the Bureaucrat oversees admins' and mods' work, modifies staff as needed, represents the wiki to contact the Board, and lays out plans to develop the wiki.

Thus, we should have  at least one ACTIVE bureaucrat  to manage the whole wiki, and a "failsafe" bureaucrat (currently assigned to LR) to hop in just in case something goes terribly wrong with the management, like a political system with at least 2 parties, so that one individual doesn't have complete control over everything. Also, Master's rank is somewhat his own actually, and is admittedly kind of a memorial rank above Bureaucrat, much like the "General of the Armies" rank for George Washington. :/
