#:<s>'''Against'''</s> - Sorry for not voicing this concern earlier, but it only just occurred to me that we ''can't'' use the Truly Inactive Sysops policy to determine eligibility, since it conflicts with [[UDWiki:Administration/Policy_Discussion/Automatic_Bureaucrat_Cycling|Automatic Bureaucrat Cycling]]. Specifically, a 'crat's seat is automatically put up for a vote if they've been inactive for a month. Promoting someone who hasn't been active for even longer would mean that they'd be automatically ousted as soon as they got in. We need to reconcile those policies.
