== Admin inactivity notices for criterion 2 == |
|||
Had to take a break some months back due to lack of time and energy. Due to recent RL events, I should have more time on my hands and would appreciate if I had access to the sysop tools restored.

The first round of inactivity notices for the new activity criterion are planned for 1 October. I would like the crats to provide input on the notice text. I have put a quick draft below for the first notice based on {{tl|inactive admin}}. Please feel free to edit it directly or make a template as you see fit. I'll also need the ones for the second notice and annual reminder. — [[User:JJMC89|JJMC89]] <small>([[User talk:JJMC89|T]]'''·'''[[Special:Contributions/JJMC89|C]])</small> 06:30, 27 September 2022 (UTC) |

Established [[Wikipedia:Administrators#Procedural removal for inactive administrators|policy]] provides for the removal of the administrative permissions of users who have made fewer than 100 edits over a 60-month period. Your administrative permissions will be removed if you do not return to the required activity level before the beginning of {{{{{|safesubst:}}}#time:F Y|{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} 1 {{CURRENTYEAR}}+3 months}}. {{{{{|safesubst:}}}#if:{{{crat|}}}|As bureaucrat inactivity requirements are [[Wikipedia:Bureaucrats'_noticeboard/Archive_47#Request_for_comment_on_Bureaucrat_activity_requirements|tied to administrator activity]], failure to reach acceptable activity levels will also result in the loss of your bureaucrat permissions.}} |

Inactive administrators are encouraged to engage with the project in earnest rather than to make token edits to avoid loss of administrative permissions. Resources and support for re-engaging with the project are available at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Editor Retention/administrators]]. If you do not intend to re-engage with the project in the foreseeable future, please consider voluntarily resigning your administrative permissions by making a request at [[Wikipedia:Bureaucrats' noticeboard|the bureaucrats' noticeboard]]. |

::Whilst I think it's noble to ask for people to give the tools up voluntarily, I feel like most will just wait out the period - this message doesn't give a date for that to happen.

:::Interesting point, though I feel like if it is posted on 1 October "the next three months" indicates Oct-Dec, and inactivity is generally done at the beginning of the month (i.e. January). I'm not opposed to adding some sort of <code>{{tlf|CURRENTDATE}}+3</code> trigger in there, but I don't really see it as necessary. [[User:Primefac|Primefac]] ([[User talk:Primefac|talk]]) 09:43, 27 September 2022 (UTC) |
|||
::::I think for me, it's a bit of a difficult ask to request users to increase activity but not give them a deadline. "Within the next three months" seems quite ''soft'', rather than a "you'll lose access by X month".

:::::Ah, so change "{{tq|return to the required activity level within the next three months}}" to "{{tq|return to the required activity level by <month>}}"? I guess that would work (and alleviates one of the concerns I had about being ''too'' specific about the dates). [[User:Primefac|Primefac]] ([[User talk:Primefac|talk]]) 09:54, 27 September 2022 (UTC) |
|||
::::::Indeed. I don't think we gain anything by being super specific, but having a month would make it a bit easier, especially as we are targetting these at users who may spend months away from the site.

::Just as a quick reminder for me - the crat activity requirements are the same as for admins, no? Presumably once someone looses the mop, they would also lose cratship?

|||
::::"Presumably once someone looses the mop, they would also lose cratship?". There is no rule that says you need to have admin permissions if you have the bureaucrat permissions, so I think there would still be a need to notify about the bureaucrat permissions as well. -- [[User:WOSlinker|WOSlinker]] ([[User talk:WOSlinker|talk]]) 12:43, 27 September 2022 (UTC) |
|||
:::::As of April (see my link) bureaucrat inactivity is tied to admin inactivity, so if a 'crat loses the mop because of inactivity, they will also be de-cratted. Otherwise your statement is correct, as Xeno demonstrated a few years ago. |
|||
:::::That being said (sorry for the double post), it wouldn't be that hard to add a {{para|crat|yes}} option, which would tack on "and your status as a bureaucrat" or similar to the notice. [[User:Primefac|Primefac]] ([[User talk:Primefac|talk]]) 12:51, 27 September 2022 (UTC) |
|||
::::::I can't really think of a situation where one would be suitable for crat, but not adminship (and was probably why this was implemented across both groups). A non-admin promoting an admin wouldn't sit well with the community. However, if it's a simple fix, there's no real reason to not put {{tq|administrative permissions "and bureaucrat status"}}.

[[Wikipedia:Bureaucrats'_noticeboard/Archive_47#When_will_admin_who_are_impacted_by_the_new_activity_requirements_be_desysopped?|Based on prior discussion]], my understanding is that the activity requirements themselves are effective on January 1, 2023, meaning desysops begin that day. Were we to send notifications on the October 1, this would evaluate to February 2023, which is either a bug, or a mis-specified requirement. :) [[User:Izno|Izno]] ([[User talk:Izno|talk]]) 16:33, 27 September 2022 (UTC) |

The subject line more or less says it all. This action was taken by [[Special:Contributions/Useight|Useight]] per [[Wikipedia talk:Former administrators#Ahoerstemeier|this discussion]]. I thought it best to announce it here because most desysoppings are mentioned on this page and perhaps some Wikipedians who have been around for a while might recall Ahoerstemeier's username, as I do.

For sensitive matters, you may contact an individual bureaucrat directly by e-mail.
You may use this tool to locate recently active bureaucrats.
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.

[edit]Hi all
It is with great sadness that I advise the passing of JamesR (talk · contribs), a longtime Wikipedia colleague of mine.
He was until September an administrator, when he voluntarily requested the tools be removed at this noticeboard (diff).
James also operated two bots, HBC AIV helperbot5 (talk · contribs · count · logs · page moves · block log) and AdminStatsBot (talk · contribs · count · logs · page moves · block log). Both are still active. I will leave to those who know more about such things on the best course of action regarding this.
My best wishes to James' family and friends at this difficult time.
Regards
