Anyways, I have another statement to bring forward about both candidates since y'all kept complaining that my previous explanation (not question) was terrible when I really just happened to bring up the wrong vandal in my example, and now I feel like I've made Banana look bad :

Captain Hayden seems to be the person most strongly rooted on Patrik's side, and I guess I'm the person who wants Banana to win the most badly (surprisingly?). Hayden's original argument was that Patrik is more exuberant and enthusiastic, and then he backed that up by saying Banana abandoned the Mope.io Wiki while Patrik is steadily growing the MooMoo.io Wiki. This was then proven really, really wrong because that wiki is awful and irredeemable and Patrik and Banana have both done very good work on their main wikis. Now Hayden's main point seems to be, Patrik has done more raw work and has enough experience to rival Banana which is...sort of questionable? (I'll get to that in a second).

Meanwhile, my two points throughout this thing have been: 1) Banana has more experience in more areas than Patrik and 2) Banana knows more people and know how to deal with drama as well as work with Ursuul as a partner better than Patrik, which so far haven't really been proven wrong (besides yelling "the past is in the past", that is). As many people have brought up, Banana has been a longstanding and hardworking staff member for longer than Patrik, did not snap even once during the Dark Era (unlike Ursuul, Zathsu, Hayden, me, all of the former staff, and your great aunt), has seen multiple large-scale projects through to their end (which Patrik hasn't really done), knows every single user on the wiki (and has a small list of those who don't also know him, unlike Patrik who has a long list), and has overall done more difficult, "dirty" work for this wiki in the long run (which you can clearly see through his theme work, coding, bug fixing, project-planning, development of wiki features, conceptioning, proofreading of edits, editing, page moving, page deleting, page-reworking, patrolling, moderating and more). Patrik said earlier, "If I can't rival Banana in experience, no one can", and he was right. In my opinion, he can't, Zathsu can't, not even Ursuul himself can. For all these reasons, along with Banana saying he is permanently off of hiatus, Banana is the better candidate.

PS: This should answer Patrik's earlier, unanswered question of "What exactly makes more experience and less activity better than slightly less experience and slightly more activity?".
