 * 1) Adminship isn't so much a position as it is a responsibility to carry out certain tasks. This isn't a badge of honor, it's an unpaid job, and the work can get dirty at times.
 * 2) Adminship is a set of tools. Someone who doesn't plan on ever using those tools would not be a good admin. At the same time, someone who cannot be trusted with those tools would also not be a good admin.

So when nominating, don't be thinking about how long someone has edited or how popular they are; think instead about whether they are qualified, trustworthy, and can handle the responsibility.
