My vote is to have an executive bureaucrat: Obsidion

Even if we keep other bureaucrats, I think we need someone that is the go-to person. I don’t like having to wait for a consensus before a decision is made. From my experience here, decisions tend to be endlessly delayed or plain forgotten. Sometimes it’s best just to hear a deciding voice and be able to move on. If there are times that we want more of a community consensus, I don’t see that as being a problem.

Obsidion excels as an editor. He can be trusted to make good decisions, he deals well with other editors, and he already seems to be the person to go to for questions.
