"No exact expiry set" on temporary administrators

I find those statements rather disturbing, as I find disturbing that this users are being promoted by the staff without proper community discussion as prescribed by policy. This is wrong and added without community support. If this community has spent time developing policies they should be followed: if you want temporary adminship, ask and we will see. Indefinite temporary adminship should be an exception and if so it must be community approved too. Please share your thoughts on this issue. Thanks. —Marco Aurelio (Nihil Prius Fide) 21:21, 23 March 2012 (UTC)

Just to clarify: I do not think that the change made nor the promotions are made in bad faith; but since we gave us policies I think they should be followed; and the exceptions should remain exceptions nor the general rule. Regards. —Marco Aurelio (Nihil Prius Fide) 21:35, 23 March 2012 (UTC)
