For starters I kind of want to leave a little rebuttal to some of the points some other users are bringing up. While I understand the concerns about your dedication to the wikia in relation to your edit count, I don't think it should have too much impact on whether or not you should be chat mod, because well I personally believe you CAN be dedicated to the wiki and be something like a chat mod without knowing the first thing about editing. To just give some examples JTF didn't have too many edits back when we promoted him, and I wasn't a good editor myself back when I started being a chat moderator.

Another noteworthy thing is, from my personal experience, you handled situations moderately well and seem to have a reasonable head on your shoulders (throwback to the time Sponge wiki had to go on chat to resolve some issues with a user causing cross-wiki drama). I believe that if a situation were to crop up in chat you would handle it well and I commend you for that.

That all being said, there's a couple of concerns I feel need to be addressed before I feel conformatable promoting you into a chat moderator position. For starters, I feel your dedication should be called into question. Your activity in the chat is, in of itself, what I would personally find to be, pretty mediocre. On top of all that, your contribution to forum threads and the chat itself seems to be pretty below average. It personally gives me the impression you want to be a chat moderator without really actually going through the effort that's needed in order to be a chat moderator.

Another thing to note is that we pretty much just promoted 202nd Skywalker. While I don't think it's that big of a deal, it's just like, we should take a chill pill on the promotions. We're not really in a hurry to promote other people.

So, overall, I personally feel that your current level of dedication to the wiki is too concerning in order to really make me feel comfortable with you having user rights. Not to mention, I just think that should we actually need user rights, we have better options.
