Was that in 2003? In that case, that's what I'm speaking about.
I doubt you would request adminship with the same ammount of contributions 
& time spent on Wikipedia if you were to ask now. Read some of recently 
failed RfA... demands are rising, judging by what people request while 
voting, you should
-have editcount in order of thousands 
-contribute ~3months
-satisfy various demans on structure of contributions
-good portion of contribution should be "signifficant" contributions 
in main namespace
-portion should be housecleaning work
-you should have some experience in Project ns
-but do not spent too much time on Project!
-you should have led 1 article to featured status
-fill edit summaries!
-be nice in edit summaries
-no POV!
-preferably, almost no serious conflicts
-yet some experience with conflicts 
and so on...
