In an effort to help improve account security, our intention was to remind administrators of existing policies on account security — that they are <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators#Security" title="Wikipedia:Administrators">required</a> to "have strong passwords and <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Personal_security_practices" title="Wikipedia:Personal security practices">follow appropriate personal security practices</a>." We have <a href="/wiki/Special:PermanentLink/891851004#Return_of_permissions_for_compromised_administrator_accounts" title="Special:PermanentLink/891851004">updated</a> our procedures to ensure that we enforce these policies more strictly in the future. The policies themselves have not changed. In particular, <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:2FA" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:2FA">two-factor authentication</a> remains an <i>optional</i> means of adding extra security to your account. The choice not to enable 2FA will not be considered when deciding to restore sysop privileges to administrator accounts that were compromised. </p><p>We are sorry for the wording of our previous message, which did not accurately convey this, and deeply regret the tone in which it was delivered. </p><p>For the Arbitration Committee, -<a href="/wiki/User:Cameron11598"
