Most folks get promoted regardless because of blind support, so who would want to risk having a future admin hold a grudge against them? Votes should be closed (but with requirements still enforced to curb sockpuppetry). Do you think off-site voting would be viable? It seems impractical, but it preserves anonymity (only selected users (bureaucrats?) would be able to see the names and count the votes). Additionally, voting this way would be stricter because then you'd HAVE to give an explanation for your vote.

I don't really see how we could have an anonymous system on Wikia. Maybe organize polls in Chat and have private messages with bureaucrats/admins be like vote ballots?

Okay, I was kidding with the last one.
