1000 isn't exactly an "iron-clad" policy. Chemical Chaos was still very close. Just maybe aim for 890-900 edits before applying. There are other factors that come into play when admins are looking to promote.

For example, someone could have 2000 edits, but still not get promoted because their edits were mostly discussion and thread replies.

Another example could be if a Bureaucrat had a brand new wiki and wanted to choose mods as quick as possible. They could have a user with 200 edits promoted.

Maybe a hypothetical user could be promoted at just 500 edits on a no-so-new Wiki because they showed direct and obvious signs that they're qualified for the job, such as having complex code added.

As for you though, over 75% of your edits are discussion and thread.

What you could do to change that is maybe make a story or find a story on the Big Nate Comments Wiki that you are so in to, you find time to edit it a crap ton, therefore improving your number of article edits.
