Hello,

I have a bad feeling about this request.

28 people have participated to the consultation, 18 supports the motion.

So, 18 people are going to introduce the word 'moderator' in the Wikipedia
universe, where:
- we explain a lot to everybody there isn't any moderator on Wikipedia, ie
nobody moderates the content publication, like in an editorial committee;
- a Google search to wikipedia moderators give very negative and troll posts
and news.

I wonder if it's acceptable to let 18 person choose to introduce a word with
such a negative connotation in the projects and if another name of the group
wouldn't be more appropriated. Because this will have an impact in other
projects: "Yes, you have moderators, see vi. for example.".

Furthermore, we're here in yet another strange rights divide situation. People
trusted to delete, undelete, protect articles should normally be trusted to be
full sysops.
