You have to earn it based on good hard work, and the number of edits you make. However, I wouldn't go ahead in making it a personal goal, we already have enough Administrators and we don't just give a promotion to any user who has done long good service to the Wiki. Things would get out of hand. Besides, we're here to build a Wiki for the public not to compete for credit.

I was only promoted because certain users and close friends felt I was right for the job. At that time I didn't much care about it but I must admit it was tempting.
