User blog comment:SpaceWeather/A Formal Assessment of a Pressing Issue/@comment-1874924-20131008064736

Proposition 1 - I propose the following addition/clarification: When any admin or chatmod under a formal accusation of power abuse bans someone, he must state for the log a more specific reason than the catchall "misbehaving in Chat". Failure to do so will create the presumption that the ban is unreasonable. (This is actually "best practices" for any admin or chatmod, accused or not, because "misbehaving in Chat" can mean almost anything.)

Proposition 2 - This doesn't really address the problem, because Chat seems to be his main (if not only) problem area. He seems to have been a generally good admin otherwise. If we could remove Chat powers whilst leaving other powers intact, that might be ideal, but I don't think there's any way to do that.

Proposition 3 - Wikia Central must see either solid evidence of wrongdoing or "strong community desire" (their exact words in response to my query) for removing a bureaucrat before it will act. (B-crat is the only level that we can't demote locally, although b-crats can demote themselves.) The first option means that the accusers will have to start screencapping chats, if they aren't doing so already. For the second option, Wikia Central recommends a public discussion and a vote by the community, not just the admins. Presumably, "strong community desire" means that WC would likely give the b-crat in question the benefit of the doubt if the vote is close.
