I continue to '''oppose''' this proposition. I understand the desire to have more people with the power to stop a vandal, but this still seems overly knee-jerk and unnecessary. We have rollbackers, we have admins, and I really don't see the demonstrated need for this intermediary level to exist. If your concern is lack of admins, I would say that three active ones is a sufficient number for most things, and besides that the standard RfA system has been working fine. I'm also concerned about adding more hierarchy and user rights stratification to the wiki.

:The problem is that rollbackers don't really have the tools to actually ''stop'' a run of vandalism as opposed to individual vandal edits and admins are expected to have great conflict resolution skills. Therefore, I feel that users that can really be trusted for janitorial purposes but aren't believed to have the necessary conflict resolution skills (i.e. some of the recently failed RfA candidates) could be given this position to be more effective in fighting vandalism while not having to be given a whole slew of tools that are really needed mostly for conflict resolution.
