I think the philosophy behind the idea of term limits is problematic. It views administration as far more political than it is. To put it simply, wikis do not have governments. Rather, they have a group of users with extra tools that cary out certain functions (banning, blocking, deleting, protecting, promoting, etc). As long as an admin provides net benefit to the community, there is no reason they should be demoted. Some of our admins who have truly benefited the wiki in the long run would be demoted under this system. Thus, its implementation would be detrimental.

You are on point, however, about the problems with our current system, and I applaud your initiative to solve that problem. We do need a proactive admin team. The way to achieve this, however, is not to put stress on current veterans, but to promote new admins who will make up for our semi-inactivity. This is exactly what we have been doing. So, for now, status quo solves.
