And one of the replacement admins you propose, Lauren Darkmore has had less than that in 2 years. How is doing less acceptable?

Lauren is an admin, therefore she is on the list. She is not nominated unless someone actually nominates her onto the Nominations page, which will then open up for support and opposition. Pros and cons of the admins for a crat are presented there in vote form. A denomination, however, requires a discussion thread.

General Esdeath was given warnings before he was demoted, and now Sgt Grif gets demoted out of the blue?

Before my time, but Nedz was doing some fairly outlandish things that needed immediate public addressing for themselves, which then accumulated in people being so unimpressed with his behavior they didn't want him representing the wiki as a bureaucrat.

Also, any staff is open for denomination.

And after Maki K and Creed Keeper lose rights without any warning. Why are you clearing house if you claim to need more people?

Maki stepped down because he didn't want to be an admin anymore, felt he wouldn't have the time and asked to be just a rollback.

Creed said that he wouldn't have time for the Discord server and asked to be made simply a rollback.

They both happened to do so today, because possibly today was the day for the finalization of Content Mod noms and the planned end of staff discussion on what to do about the bureaucrat situation and its moving forward.

Why are "number of edits done in X period of time" important? </div? They represent activity. You can theorize that someone is watching without editing, and it's possible, sure. In the particular question of whether one member of staff is doing it, other staff would know whether or not that is the case.
