In "Procedures", it says "The user must have at least 1000 constructive mainspace edits to request admin rights". About the seniority, there is not a minimum requirement, but only as long as we get to know you and trust you. Even so, the fact that you reach 1000 edits and a certain seniority doesn't mean that you will be automatically promoted to admin. The adminship is not a prize, but a duty and a position of responsibility. As the Administrators project page says, the admin is basically just a regular user with a few extra buttons to perform certain tasks; so if there is no need for more users with access to those tools, then there would be no reason to promote someone else. Also, if a vacancy opens up in the future, the primary candidates would be our current Rollback users. Please keep this in mind if your main goal in joining the community is to look for an adminship position.
