Wikipedia:Bureaucrats' noticeboard

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.

Quite sad to see this, wishing you the best. Staraction (talk · contribs) 12:03, 29 May 2026 (UTC) Reply

Heh, I've updated the query. Actually an increasingly competitive race! (This is the one silly stat I'm fine treating like a game because there's no resulting perverse incentive, and if anything a mild positive incentive to get people to resign tools they aren't using.) -- Tamzin ^{[cetacean needed]} (they|xe|🤷) 12:46, 29 May 2026 (UTC) Reply

You have 4 fewer entries than I do; you must be REALLY lazy ! -- Avi (talk) 18:49, 29 May 2026 (UTC) Reply

I hope you are doing well, charlotte, and I look forward to you eventually picking the tools back up. Best, House Blaster (talk • he/they) 20:41, 29 May 2026 (UTC) Reply

I’ve missed the place, and think there’s more to give even if less active than I once was. TonyBallioni (talk) 23:36, 30 May 2026 (UTC) Reply

In general I would prefer people returning after 16 months of inactivity to have more than two editing days before asking for resysop back, but in Tony's particular case I reasonably convinced he intends to return to editing. As already noted has an edit with-in two years, last admin action was in September 2023 so meets the 5 year rule, and I am unaware of any cloud. Needs the standard 24 hour wait but I am not currently seeing any issues. Barkeep49 (talk) 23:49, 30 May 2026 (UTC) Reply

Done. I would echo Barkeep's comments, and note also that I have seen them regularly in IRC over the last couple of years. Primefac (talk) 23:23, 31 May 2026 (UTC) My apologies for being 13 minutes early, I keep forgetting I'm +1 these days... Primefac (talk) 23:25, 31 May 2026 (UTC) Reply

I forgive you and promise I won’t try to decrat you. TonyBallioni (talk) 23:37, 31 May 2026 (UTC) Reply

I have not been active for some time and in the spirit of the policy think I should hang up the tools. Thank you. -SpuriousQ (talk) 05:20, 6 June 2026 (UTC) Reply
