The Bureaucrats' noticeboard is a place where items related to the Bureaucrats can be discussed and coordinated. Any user is welcome to leave a message or join the discussion here. Please start a new section for each topic.

This is not a forum for grievances. It is a specific noticeboard addressing Bureaucrat-related issues. If you want to know more about an action by a particular bureaucrat, you should first raise the matter with them on their talk page. Please stay on topic, remain civil, and remember to assume good faith. Take extraneous comments or threads to relevant talk pages.

If you are here to report that an RFA or an RFB is "overdue" or "expired", please wait at least 12 hours from the scheduled end time before making a post here about it. There are a fair number of active bureaucrats; and an eye is being kept on the time remaining on these discussions. Thank you for your patience.

To request that your administrator status be removed, initiate a new section below.

Could a 'crat please remove my admin rights?  -- Lear's Fool 08:00, 1 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Thank you very much for all your work as an administrator. WJBscribe (talk) 08:45, 1 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Might I suggest we endeavour to provide a permanent link or diff to removal requests when fulfilling? –xeno^talk 12:21, 1 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi NYMets2000, while it is true Jinian's last edit was in December of 2009, he has been performing admin actions since then, and actually was desysopped briefly but had adminship given back. Acalamari 14:26, 1 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

•  Not done; user's last log action was less than one year ago. –xeno^talk 15:24, 1 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

There is a semi-related ANI thread regarding the OP of this section. WP:ANI#Boomerang: NYMets2000 and WP:CIR. Strange Passerby (talk • cont) 16:22, 1 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

While it may be a moot point given the activity in less then 12 months, I would point out for future reference Wikipedia:Administrators#Procedural removal for inactive administrators clearly says you're supposed to notify the admin 1 month and then a few days before requesting the desysopping Nil Einne (talk) 17:53, 1 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

That too =) –xeno^talk 18:05, 1 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• Oh, by the way, if anyone knows this language, perhaps they could update the script so that it looks at logged actions as well. (see also: [1]) –xeno^talk 18:15, 1 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It looks like a shell script for the Bourne Again SHell, but I could be missing something. - Hydroxonium (T•C•V) 04:31, 2 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Your point? They aren't an admin. AD 10:18, 2 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed their administrative permissions were removed in July by stewards (see notification). –xeno^talk 12:36, 2 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Here's a working link. ​—DoRD (talk)​ 12:40, 2 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
