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.

Hi Bureaucrats, requesting return of the admin tools which I gave up in October. Was originally planning on waiting until the new year, but per WP:ACE2024, upholding my timeline commitment of requesting back in late December instead (statement, comment).

Original desysop request here in the BN archives for ease of reference.

Thanks,

Seems fine, admin activity as recently as October this year. Standard 24-hour hold applies. — xaosflux ^Talk 01:49, 23 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

An early Welcome Back, Daniel! I look forward to seeing you at AFDLand should you want to spend some time there again. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 00:23, 24 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I hope you also look forward to seeing him on the ArbCom mailing list where I expect you two will run into each other frequently... Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 00:43, 24 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Done

Welcome back. I have restored your admin rights. Ϣere SpielChequers 13:56, 24 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Bureaucrats. I'm requesting the removal of my administrator rights as of January 1, 2025, as I will be generally retiring. I would like my previous rights (autopatrolled, extended confirmed user, page mover, pending changes reviewer, rollbacker and template editor) restored. I would have waited a little closer to request but might not be online the next couple days. Thank you! -- ferret (talk) 17:49, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I've emailed Arbcom separately about checkuser, just as info! -- ferret (talk) 17:54, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Per your wishes, I have removed the tools. I realise this is a day or so early, so if you do need to use the tools in the meantime I can revert

On a personal note, I'm sad to see you go. Thank you for your service. Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 19:13, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
