Two new admins are set to be promoted soon. This means that after their promotion, we might get new chat moderators and rollbacks (depending on who the new admins are). Before it happens, I'd like to suggest changing one of chat moderators' and rollbacks' criteria.

The current requirements are:


 * In order to become a rollback, you need at least 100 mainspace edits.


 * In order to become a chat moderator, you need at least 250 mainspace edits.

The requirements I suggest are:


 * In order to become a rollback, you need at least 250 mainspace edits.


 * In order to become a chat moderator, you need at least 100 mainspace edits.

And I believe we should change these rules, because...


 * A rollback's job is reverting edits.


 * A chat mod's main job is taking care of chat (and moderating it, which doesn't happen as often as the former).

So why is someone whose job is reverting edits on this wiki supposed to have more mainspace edits than a person whose job is not really related with editing? Also, these rules were made in 2014 - when there were less users and the average number of mainspace edits per active user was lower.

What are your thoughts on this subject? Do you have a better idea? Also, please don't use "I want to become a rollback, but I've got less than 250 edits." as your reason.
