If a hot-button issue arises halfway through an RFA, there will be three responses from those supporting: doing nothing (whether as a choice or simply because they are not watching the RFA), reaffirming support, or switching their !vote. Since the rationale behind "doing nothing" cannot be determined, adding more weight to a subset of those voting in support is problematic. To that end, trying to force some sort of algorithm or process to assessing the latter two options and how they affect the overall result will only waste time and likely screw over the next candidate who said That One Thing That One Time (but where the situation is actually completely different). <a href="/wiki/User:Primefac" title="User:Primefac">Primefac</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Primefac" title="User talk:Primefac">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-Primefac-2022-05-03T14:51:00.000Z-Dweller-2022-05-03T14:20:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">14:51, 3 May 2022 (UTC)</a></dd> <dd>(summarized from my other comment) I would not ordinarily apply weighting to any !votes based on simple reaffirmations or lack of such.

If we're going to pass reform coming off this RfA, and in what will probably not be a huge surprise I think we should, I am not sure this is the most pressing reform to do and I'm not sure how much community interest there would be in multiple reform efforts.

Usually they contain more information than the original support, either as a rebuttal to a recently voiced concern or as an acknowledgment that the concerns are perhaps valid and shared but are (in the supporter's view) not concerning enough to tip the balance towards withdrawing support. In that sense they're more useful in gauging consensus than a bare "Sure!" support, but that's also true of any support or oppose (or neutral) that is substantive. They're certainly not either required (if someone simply stays in the support column without reaffirming, that does not weaken their initial support) nor are they inherently gaming of the system (and definitely not viewed or counted by 'crats as "double votes.") They're just one indicator among many of how the RfA participants view the candidate, and I think it would be a mistake to treat them as some sort of unique "one weird trick" that might tip an RfA. While gaming the system is always possible, I suppose, I don't think reaffirmations would be a particularly effective way of doing so; we can all read the timeline of who supported, when, and why (assuming they say why.) We shouldn't overthink this. <a href="/wiki/User:28bytes" title="User:28bytes">28bytes</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:28bytes" title="User talk:28bytes">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-28bytes-2022-05-03T14:59:00.000Z-Reaffirmation_!votes" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">14:59, 3 May 2022 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd>+1 — <a href="/wiki/User:Wugapodes" title="User:Wugapodes">Wug·</a><a href="/wiki/User_talk:Wugapodes" title="User talk:Wugapodes">a·po·des</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-Wugapodes-2022-05-03T22:55:00.000Z-28bytes-2022-05-03T14:59:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">22:55, 3 May 2022 (UTC)</a></dd></dl> I didn't weigh in on the specific RFA in question, and every bureaucrat reads consensus differently, but here's my take on reaffirmation !votes: they do nothing. If there is a support that doesn't have a reaffirmation that means that either: 1) the supporter examined the candidate and was satisfied with supporting regardless of what happened in the remainder of the RFA and so they didn't come back because they had already deemed it irrelevant to do so; or 2) the supporter examined the candidate and was satisfied with supporting, but came back and saw later developments and decided the later developments were irrelevant to their support. Alternatively, a support that has a reaffirmation means that the supporter examined the candidate and was satisfied with supporting, but came back and saw later developments and decided the later developments were irrelevant to their support and explicitly noted that fact. In all three cases, the end result is the same - the later developments were not relevant to them supporting. Now, I want to be clear on two things: 1) "Irrelevant" isn't the perfect word. What I mean is that there may have been some relevance, but it wasn't something that caused the supporter to switch to oppose or neutral (though it may have caused the user to add "Weak" to their support, for example); and 2) The same thing would apply to someone reaffirming an oppose, but I've never seen that happen. Now what this means, for me, is that a reaffirmation is the same as an addendum. Someone coming back to their !vote one minute later to say, "I just realized XYZ and still support" is functionally equivalent to someone coming back to their !vote three days later to say, "I just read what User ABC wrote and still support." To me, all timestamps are the same, as long as they are between the opening and closing bells of the RFA. I will, of course, read the contents of a reaffirmation, but I treat it the same as if it were an addendum or part of the original !vote. <a href="/wiki/User:Useight" title="User:Useight">Useight</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Useight" title="User talk:Useight">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-Useight-2022-05-03T15:59:00.000Z-Reaffirmation_!votes" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">15:59, 3 May 2022 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd>(Non-bureaucrat comment) The <a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:Requests_for_adminship&diff=897750777&oldid=897718013">wrong assertion that RfA is a consensus discussion</a> now has you trying to read minds of those who expressed an opinion, in this case if you needed editors to say that they don't care Tamzin is a partisan.

(Or late votes, or early votes, or "strong" votes, for that matter.) Anything else encourages strategic voting, which is exactly what we don't want to see at RFA. "Weak" votes can obviously be given less weight since the voter has literally asked for reduced weighting, and he or she will often include a comment along the lines of "I don't mind if this passes/fails". This is why I almost never "strongly" support or oppose, since it's just a meaningless modifier. A reaffirmation is usually just an acknowledgement of arguments presented by opposers accompanied by a statement that the supporter believes that the concerns are not significant enough to warrant changing their view. Occasionally, the supporter may provide a rebuttal to the opposing arguments. Remember that RFA is supposed to be about a consensus, not a straight poll, so providing arguments for and reasoning behind your decision should be encouraged, not discouraged. Otherwise, we might as well just hold a poll and discard bureaucrat analysis entirely, but I believe this is simply counter to Wikipedia's goals by turning RFA into even more of a popularity contest than it already is rather than a consensus-driven discussion where logical reasoning is given more consideration than personal opinion. For example, "Oppose, the candidate doesn't have enough content writing experience" is a perfectly valid argument, whereas "oppose, I don't personally like the candidate" can be discarded. On a different but still related note, I dislike the rather bad-faith assumptions that people reaffirming their position are somehow trying to double-vote or otherwise cheat. <a href="/wiki/User:Reaper_Eternal" title="User:Reaper Eternal">Reaper Eternal</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Reaper_Eternal" title="User talk:Reaper Eternal">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-Reaper_Eternal-2022-05-03T17:10:00.000Z-Useight-2022-05-03T15:59:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">17:10, 3 May 2022 (UTC)</a></li> <li>Contrarian view I find some of these points regarding reconfirmation supports surprising. To me, a RFA (similarly a RFD, etc) is first and foremost a discussion. And a discussion is the most meaningful, and consensus easiest to judge, if people continue to engage. Oftentimes, the relevant factors are surfaced pretty rapidly (by the early !voters) and a reconfirmation support or oppose is pretty meaningless. But where new factors make their appearance part-way through the discussion window, it feels pretty important to see to what extent early commenters are swayed by those factors or not. Therefore if I happen to participate early-ish in a discussion, I make a point of returning to confirm whether later discussion will in any way change my mind. And when the discussion does take a right turn, I would fully and noncontroversially expect that a reconfirmed support/oppose will carry more weight in divining final consensus, than one where no one can glean whether the the !vote was aware of the later-breaking factors. Of course, sometimes life gets in the way, or there's nothing to be said that's not repetitive, but declaring your incoming view and then leaving the building isn't exactly participating in a discussion. I also see people worrying that paying attention to "reconfirmation" will incentivize late voting, so as to not have one's !vote devalued. However, I see an awful lot of herd mentality in many of our RFx discussions. Not necessarily a bad thing, but it means early contributions carry more weight by setting the tone, and so I think people sitting on the fence until the last hours of an RFx is an unlikely consequence of encouraging people to reconfirm when appropriate. <a href="/wiki/User:Martinp" class="mw-redirect" title="User:Martinp">Martinp</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Martinp" title="User talk:Martinp">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-Martinp-2022-05-03T19:28:00.000Z-Useight-2022-05-03T15:59:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">19:28, 3 May 2022 (UTC)</a></li> <li>Synth view IMO it's good for crats to each have their own take on these things. We don't pay crats the big bucks for y'all to follow the same script. FWIW, scholars like James Fishkin argue its generally good for consensus based decision making to recognise preference intensity, so Im glad some crats chose to give a little extra weight to 'strong supports' For me, both Reaper & Martinp are correct on the main point. Like Reaper says, a re-affirmed vote should have no extra weight in and of itself. But in cases like the Tamzin RfA where we have a sharp uptick in oppose % after a strong argument introduced late in the RfA, then re-affirming helps counter the "last minute change of trajectory" rationale against Promotion. (A rationale that prevailed against <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_adminship/Cyberpower678/Bureaucrat_discussion" title="Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Cyberpower678/Bureaucrat discussion"> Cyberpower</a> and a couple of others.) Such numerical considerations are especially relevant for the recent RfA, as on pure strength of argument grounds, Hammersoft's otherwise hard hitting point was largely blunted by SerialNo's <a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:Requests_for_adminship/Tamzin/Bureaucrat_chat&diff=prev&oldid=1085766969">Diff or it didn't happen</a> counter ( A point made by several in the RfA itself, if less eloquently). So fair play to reaffirmers, even if it did get us stung with the amusing Yeats allusion on our "passionate intensity". <a href="/wiki/User:FeydHuxtable" title="User:FeydHuxtable">FeydHuxtable</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:FeydHuxtable" title="User talk:FeydHuxtable">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-FeydHuxtable-2022-05-03T19:53:00.000Z-Useight-2022-05-03T15:59:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">19:53, 3 May 2022 (UTC)</a></li> <li>A well reasoned reaffirmation !vote can sway the mood at RFA and potentially rebut whatever development has prompted the reaffirmation. So as an RFA participant I would encourage appropriate reaffirmations - that is ones that respond to new developments in the RFA. As a crat I'm not sure I'd give them extra weight, it is more a case of has that change in the discussion worked its way through, or are we going to get lots of people at the crat chat talkpage saying that of course they'd have changed their position over x but it was too late in the RFA for them to react to it? One of the reasons for having 7 days for an RFA is that it does give time for things to emerge and the RFA to take different directions. But I can see that a new development in the last 24 hours of an RFA would be a very different thing, and reaffirmations might well be relevant there. Hypothetically, if something emerged in the final hours it would be very useful to be able to compare the ratio of changed positions to reaffirmations and judge whether this was something likely would flip the RFA result if the RFA ran for a little longer. <a href="/wiki/User:WereSpielChequers" title="User:WereSpielChequers">Ϣere</a><a href="/wiki/User_talk:WereSpielChequers" title="User talk:WereSpielChequers">Spiel</a>Chequers <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-WereSpielChequers-2022-05-03T20:33:00.000Z-Useight-2022-05-03T15:59:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">20:33, 3 May 2022 (UTC)</a></li> <li>I do not feel it is practical for closers of discussions to consider the net evaluation of a commenter to be suspect unless the commenter returns to comment again, as this would require them to infer the state of mind of the commenter. For most discussions, if there were significant new evidence revealed that affected comments to date, the discussion would get restarted. I appreciate that for requests for administrative privileges, this might tend to polarize discussion rather than work towards a consensus agreement. Thus I feel it is best overall to take each stated evaluation at face value. <a href="/w/index.php?title=User:Isaacl&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="User:Isaacl (page does not exist)">isaacl</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Isaacl" title="User talk:Isaacl">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-Isaacl-2022-05-03T21:26:00.000Z-Useight-2022-05-03T15:59:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">21:26, 3 May 2022 (UTC)</a></li> <li>The problem, if reaffirmation !votes are weighed more heavily, is that it would rely on the presumption that just because a user did not reaffirm, that they must not be keeping up with the RFA. For one, a user who has not reaffirmed could very well actually be keeping up with the RFA, but for some reason, does not feel the need to reaffirm. Secondly, even if the reason they haven't reaffirmed is because they haven't kept up with the RFA after !voting, it could just be because either they're busy or because they didn't anticipate the RFA taking a turn that would convince them to change their !vote (as had happened with many of the opposes at Tamzin's RFA). While a reaffirmation does indicate that a user has been keeping up with the RFA, just because they did not reaffirm doesn't mean their !vote should be given less weight. If reaffirmations are to be given more weight, that means that all !votes that were placed early would have to be given less weight than !votes that were placed later, then there'd be no point in participating in the RFA until later on.

As for RfA, one potential source that I haven't explored recently is looking at people who did an ORCP in the last couple of years and got "interest candidate need more time" type feedback and to see if any of them might be ready now. Finding people who expressed interest at some point in RfA is a big deal because of the overwhelming number of candidates who I know would pass and say "not me" when contacted.

The result of this is that we tend to wait for a good number of Crats to weigh in before we think it's wise to act. Because of this, and because there aren't that many of us, and because this is a volunteer project, and because some of the Crats aren't that active, when there is a Cratchat (which admittedly is rare) or when there's something difficult to assess on BN (which is much more common), it often takes a long time to come to consensus. <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_adminship/Money_emoji/Bureaucrat_chat" title="Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Money emoji/Bureaucrat chat">It can take several days</a>. This is really unfair on those who waiting for the decision, especially when it's an RfX. The scrutiny at RfX is stressful and it can double down during Cratchat. We don't need a bunch more Crats to close a welter of RfAs, bot noms, and handle copious renames like in the old days, but it would be lovely to have more voices, quicker, in our discussions, meaning it would take less time for there to be six or seven opinions stated. And yes, I'd be very happy for someone to cite this argument in an RfB nom or self-nom.

As for the idea that bureaucrats are unnecessary themselves, while I have <a href="/wiki/Special:Diff/1064945219/1064955586" title="Special:Diff/1064945219/1064955586">pointed out issues with their representation</a>, unless we move away from the consensus model and towards a hard voting system à la Committee elections, I would be far more comfortable with the results being determined by English Wikipedia community members than the stewards. <a href="/wiki/User:Sdrqaz" title="User:Sdrqaz">Sdrqaz</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Sdrqaz" title="User talk:Sdrqaz">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-Sdrqaz-2022-05-03T17:09:00.000Z-TheresNoTime-2022-05-03T16:48:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">17:09, 3 May 2022 (UTC)</a></dd></dl> <ul><li>I don't think anyone has a problem with barely-active bureaucrats performing straightforward, uncontroversial tasks, which presumably make up the majority of the workload.

If it weren't for security purposes (having an extra level of authorization to turn on bot/admin flags), I think we should remove the userright entirely and either fold cratship into adminship completely, or simply make all the currently active admins crats. But I know I'm probably a minority when it comes to that opinion. In terms of this particular issue, I think the best way to deal with barely active admins and crats is to have more active admins and crats, not police the ones who aren't active enough out. We're long overdue for a streak of RFBs. It would be especially helpful to have crats who started editing later, not so much of a matter of them being more "in touch," but because they edit out of a different frame than those of us who started in the naughts. But running an RFB solely for the purpose of closing RFAs seems like a crummy situation for everyone. Maybe it's RFB that we can use to experiment changes for RFA. On a personal note, I have to say that I found it really nice to see familiar faces in this particular chat like UninvitedCompany and Warofdreams, both of whom I looked up to when I started editing.

While I respect disquiet that decisions get made/contributed to by people who are no longer very active, I think it's important to start from the right place: to those bureaucrats who no longer spend much time on Wikipedia, but made time to review a tricky RFA and engage in discussion, thank you for your time. With that out of the way, I actually don't think there is a problem here. The fundamentals of judging consensus have not changed much in the past 15 years, any more than the five pillars. Meaningful changes in interpretation, like shifts in target percentages, requirements for bureaucrat chats, etc. have been clearly established via RFCs and I see no evidence any of our bureaucrats are ignoring them. And if some bureaucrat used a prehistoric example during the chat, so what? To the extent it would be problematic or not really applicable, I am sure some other bureaucrat in the chat would raise that. To be sure, I don't necessarily fully agree with every point every bureaucrat ever makes, but that's immaterial. I continue to have trust that when they deliberate, bringing their range of long-standing and recent experience to the table, they tend to get it right. <a href="/wiki/User:Martinp" class="mw-redirect" title="User:Martinp">Martinp</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Martinp" title="User talk:Martinp">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-Martinp-2022-05-03T22:16:00.000Z-North8000-2022-05-03T18:43:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">22:16, 3 May 2022 (UTC)</a></li> <li>Ugh, I have a lot to say and maybe I'll find time to type it all out some day, but as someone who was vocally skeptical of <a href="/wiki/User:UninvitedCompany" title="User:UninvitedCompany">UninvitedCompany</a>'s and <a href="/wiki/User:Avaraham" title="User:Avaraham">Avaraham</a>'s rationales I don't see any issues that need resolved. Some people agree with their method for assessing consensus, and there were a hundred people opposed to the RfA who I'm sure had justifications for a no consensus finding. They deserve to have their ideas represented among crats. Similarly, a diversity of views strengthens everyones' arguments. Without UC's or Avi's opinions I wouldn't have bothered to spend the time writing a detailed analysis because it would be a waste of time; when the question is legitimacy of process though, we want strong and detailed analyses. If there is fault (dubious) it's not in their tenure or activity because other crats of similar activity and tenure came to opposite conclusions. It's worth remembering that they were selected by the community at particular points in time for their judgment, and having institutional wisdom from various points in our history helps prevent us from making mistakes already seen in the past. To the degree that there is a problem with the crat corps, I agree with others that it's a younger cohort of editors who lacks representation within it.

We have just changed the rules so that in the longterm inactive crats get decratted. I think it is a good thing if we have uninvolved crats making close calls in crat chats, and crats who have been little involved in recent years but come back for a crat chat may well have more detachment from the individuals involved in current RFAs. That said we have problems in the crat group, a lack of new blood and a gender ratio that last time I looked could be as few as one crat in twenty (we've just had a crat chat on a female candidate for adminship, and I think I'm correct in saying that none of the crats who participated in either the RFA or the Cratchat are female as our only female crat was unavailable in those days). The solution to that is to encourage more candidates to run RFBs, especially it would be good to have some extra female crats. As for Crats not having enough to do, that's a direct result of us not having enough people running at RFA.

But all too often on Wikipedia we can have that consensus that the status quo is not good enough but can't reach enough of a consensus on any given plan because the minority who don't think there needs to be change still think that and are joined by enough who dislike something about an alternative to block change - especially a problem given that our mode of consensus means we require more than a simple majority in cases like this.

But there might only be a majority who agree on a particular solution and so the status quo - a status quo that has no consensus - remains. Numerically, and in simplified form, this can look like 75% of people editors on what the problem is with Group A having 55% of editors who agree on the problem and the solution, Group B having 20% who agree on the problem but not the solution, and Group C has 25% who don't like any solution because they genuinely don't believe there's a problem in the first place. There's some incentive for Groups A & B to come together but not any real incentive for C, other than respect for project consensus, again not because they're being bad actors but because they're honestly doing what they think is right for the wiki. Further, this all tends to happen in a single round - there's no mechanism to iterate proposals because if a proposal like this is rejected it generally stays rejected for at least 18 months.

Crats need 85% support (right? I can't be bothered to look it up) and are selected based on their ability to read consensus. Arbs need 50-60% support and are selected for their dispute resolution abilities. Functionaries (besides arbs) are not elected by the community at all, but are instead selected by the committee based on feedback from stakeholders including the community. I worry that combining crat with any of them means the selection criteria for the others will change in a way that may not necessarily be beneficial. There are people who would be good checkusers but not helpful in a crat chat, and the reverse.

People bitch when Crats don't participate, then bitch when they do. Frankly, I can see why any Crat could have seen the consensus either way, which is why the Crat chat uses a consensus. It worked. It's all about trust and nothing that took place shook my faith in the Crats. The candidate approves of the Crats behavior, in fact (see above). If someone didn't like the !votes of the Crats, perhaps they should run and see if they can get 85% support to become a Crat, then they can participate in the next Crat chat.

How hath the mighty fallen, It was over 90% <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_bureaucratship/Avraham" title="Wikipedia:Requests for bureaucratship/Avraham">in</a> <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_bureaucratship/Avraham_2" title="Wikipedia:Requests for bureaucratship/Avraham 2">my</a> <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_bureaucratship/Avraham_3" title="Wikipedia:Requests for bureaucratship/Avraham 3">day</a>! And we walked uphill, both ways, in the snow, barefoot, with our soles strewn with broken glass for traction, and we were grateful. Just setting the record straight :). Now seriously, regarding the suggestion of 'ceding the role of the 'crat to the stewards', I'd like to share my opinion. Similar to a few others here, I've seen a LOT of Wikimedia in my younger days. At one point I was simultaneously an admin/crat/CU/OS on Enwiki, an admin/OS on Commons, an admin on Meta, a steward, a member of OTRS, and served on the WMF Ombudsman committee. I gave almost all of those tools back years ago as the way my career developed, I no longer had the necessary time required to devote myself to all those duties. But in that decade or so, I've seen how consensus is built on different projects, and it is (or at least was) clearly not the same across projects. This was especially difficult on Commons, where the its flavor and mores are fundamentally different than on EnWiki. Meta was more neutral. Also, in my time as a steward, while the plurality may have been EnWiki based, there was not a stigma, but an assumption that Enwiki was the 800lb gorilla and what flies here would not fly on DeWiki or JaWiki for example. There was an extra burden on us EnWiki stewrads to make sure we remained aware of that and respected the local culture. I think that EnWikipedians passion, and the evolved method of consensus finding—from the glacial pace of some RfCs to the frenetic pace of the RfX, is special and that in the cases where consensus is not clear, and some body needs to be tasked to help ascertain, that body should be made up of native Enwikipedians. I am in no way shape or form implying that the stewards aren't trustworthy, G-d forbid, or even that they wouldn't do their best to respect the EnWiki culture. They most certainly would. And they perform admirably. But that is the best option for projects without the critical mass needed to have a native body. Enwiki does have that critical mass. So I do not think ceding that role to the stewards is a good idea.

Concerns that people have about EnWiki Crats would be multiplied if switching to Stewards. 3) On the issue of replacing Crats by Arbs. That is a different election process for a different purpose. On the whole I feel that someone who is an Arb could do the Crat role and vice versa, though the community may be more cautious when voting for a Crat than when voting for an Arb, because of the nature of the Crat role. <dl><dd><dl><dd>Additionally, the community (and ArbCom itself) have over the years been reducing the role and function of ArbCom, something I fully support. Ideally we should get to the stage where the community feels confident in dealing with all disputes, and all the legal aspects of ArbCom are dealt with by the professionals who should be dealing with it (with a nod toward those who have worked in ArbCom to get WMF to accept some of their responsibilities in this area). It would be against the spirit of what has been happening to actually increase ArbCom roles. </dd></dl></dd></dl> 4) On the issue of CUOS taking over the Crat role, they have not been elected for the role, and are either given those rights as Arbs, or are given those rights by ArbCom, albeit with some feedback from the community, so haven't been directly approved by the community to become Crats. 5) On the issue of there being little for Crats to do, I find I am pinged to a Crat discussion more frequently than I had anticipated. Such discussions are not logged as Crat activity, but are still part of the Crat role. Someone asking to be resysopped may result in a discussion with the decision not to resysop, for example. However, yes, it's not a work heavy role; but I'm not seeing why that is a disadvantage to it being a distinct role. I'm in favour of unbundling advanced roles rather than squeezing more together. Let individuals decide which tools/roles they wish to use to help the project. 6) Barkeep mentions in his <a href="/wiki/User:Barkeep49/Bureaucrats" title="User:Barkeep49/Bureaucrats">Crat proposal</a> that Crat appointments are few, and that there hasn't been one for a while. While I feel that there are enough active Crats to do the work in a reasonable responsive manner, this may not always be the case for one reason or another, so looking into how we can keep a sufficient number of active Crats in the role is something I'd be interested in. <dl><dd>On the whole, other than looking into how we can get more Crats (an annual election?), I feel that the status quo works, and I suspect there are fewer complaints about Crat actions than about actions performed in other roles. <a href="/wiki/User:SilkTork" title="User:SilkTork">SilkTork</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:SilkTork" title="User talk:SilkTork">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-SilkTork-2022-05-04T10:23:00.000Z-Fram-2022-05-04T08:06:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">10:23, 4 May 2022 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd>Regarding the #4, with a couple personal powers/privileges exceptions, when you vote for an arb are safe knowing they can't just go make huge policy impacting decisions without convincing at least a few other committee members to go along with them.

The extra time needed to do crat tasks decreases the time they have to spend on dispute resolution, and increases the requirements for the role which could potentially exclude some otherwise great candidates that maybe don't have enough experience in determining consensus in large discussions.</li> <li>Both as an arbcom clerk and community member, I strongly oppose arbcom clerks filling in for the crat role. Our role is can be summed up as being a helping hand for the arbitrators for on-wiki matters. While we do perform clerking actions on our own initiative, major clerking actions from my experience always are checked over by an arbitrator which ultimately means an arbcom clerk would be asking a arb as to whether to give or not give the sysop rights in a RfA discussion.</li></ul></li> <li>CU/OS taking this on is something I would also oppose as a member of both groups.

Hi, I'd like to request the interface administrator permission, on a permanent basis. I have <a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3AContributions&target=Nihiltres&namespace=8">some history of editing MediaWiki-space CSS and JS pages</a>, but can no longer edit those pages without this additional permission. In particular, I'd like the ability to edit <a href="/wiki/MediaWiki:Gadget-metadata.js" title="MediaWiki:Gadget-metadata.js">MediaWiki:Gadget-metadata.js</a> and associated pages, to make it easier to maintain that gadget. I also regularly do template work on widely-transcluded templates, where the permission is occasionally useful. For example, I'm thinking of renaming some classes used by {{<a href="/wiki/Template:Importance" title="Template:Importance">importance</a>}}, and it'd be nice to proactively unbreak <a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search=intitle%3A%22.css%22+insource%3A%22.import-%22+insource%3A%2F%5C.import%5C-%2F&title=Special:Search&profile=advanced&fulltext=1&ns2=1">~40 user CSS pages that would be affected</a> if I made such edits. As a bonus, I'd also like to make a habit of reviewing interface edit requests if given the permission. I've been an administrator since 2007, I'm using 2FA on my account, and I believe I'm reasonably well-trusted and have a good understanding of CSS and JavaScript. Hopefully this is an easy request. Thanks, {{<a href="/wiki/User:Nihiltres" title="User:Nihiltres">Nihiltres</a> |<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Nihiltres" title="User talk:Nihiltres">talk</a> |<a href="/wiki/Special:Contributions/Nihiltres" title="Special:Contributions/Nihiltres">edits</a>}} <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-Nihiltres-2022-06-14T20:49:00.000Z-Interface_administrator_permission_request:_Nihiltres" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">20:49, 14 June 2022 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd>Thanks Nihiltres, per <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Interface_administrators#Process_for_requesting" title="Wikipedia:Interface administrators">Wikipedia:Interface_administrators#Process_for_requesting</a> that starts a 48 hour hour process just in case anyone has concerns.

Regardless of any of that, people make mistakes, and there doesn't seem to be a pattern of them or anything that indicates the mistakes are rising to abusive levels.

There's a comment period, but the policy is ambiguous and while it says the final decision rests with the bureaucrat, there's no mention of any requirement beyond requesting with a rationale. If there was an obvious community consensus against it, or someone pointed out something that the caused the admin requesting to withdraw, the waiting period would serve its effect. If you actually read the proposal that limited it to admins (<a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?oldid=857728137#Sysop_as_requirement">see here</a>) it was a weak consensus without any actual agreement on anything beyond the requirement that someone be an admin and there be a waiting period. In other words, the community wanted a wait for comment, but didn't give crats discretion to refuse in the actual RfC. Add to that the policy wording is ambiguous and I don't *think* we've had a request turned down. In other words, unless there's unambiguous community consensus against this or the request is withdrawn, I don't really see crats having a choice. Probably doesn't matter here, but since is the first time I've ever seen opposition to it, worth bringing up in case anyone wants to clarify the policy. <a href="/wiki/User:TonyBallioni" title="User:TonyBallioni">TonyBallioni</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:TonyBallioni" title="User talk:TonyBallioni">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-TonyBallioni-2022-06-16T00:31:00.000Z-Nihiltres-2022-06-14T20:49:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">00:31, 16 June 2022 (UTC)</a> <ul><li>Meh, screw it, put together the wording to clarify this at <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Interface_administrators#Clarify_the_right_can_be_refused" title="Wikipedia talk:Interface administrators">Wikipedia_talk:Interface_administrators#Clarify_the_right_can_be_refused</a>.

It has been valuable learning for multiple reasons, some unexpected. At any rate, I’m ready to pick up tools again, and thank you bureaucrats/admins for your tolerance and the work involved in desysopping/resysopping/changing perms that enabled me this time to figure things out.

I'll go ahead and start here; if it gets to be too much, anyone should feel free to move it to my talk.</li></ul> <dl><dd>The short answer to what I learned: for me, having admin perms which in my RfA I'd requested for use in a specific area gave me a sense of duty to that area. When I started not to enjoy working there, that sense of duty (which was all in my own head, no one else is responsible for that) turned into resentment and eventually avoidance of editing altogether. Just walked away for two months. What I learned from taking this break is that setting down tools was simply a mind game I was playing with myself to give myself "permission" not to do that work. So for other admins (and not just for admins but for anyone who is one of the few people working in a particular area): if you feel some sense of duty to a certain area, and you're also finding yourself less interested in editing in general, maybe it's not a coincidence. Down tools (literally or figuratively) and see what happens.</dd> <dd>The long answer is...well, long. So I won't go into it, at least here, unless there's actual interest. But it might not be a bad idea in general to encourage admins to take the occasional break to remind themselves of a few things. <a href="/wiki/User:Valereee" title="User:Valereee">valereee</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Valereee" title="User talk:Valereee">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-Valereee-20220717125600-HJ_Mitchell-20220717105400" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">12:56, 17 July 2022 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd>Thanks for your answer Valereee. I recognise what you are talking about: the self-imposed pressure to do one's share of the workload, which is not helped by the random comments one sees from people who feel that admins have some kind of official duty to do admin stuff on a regular basis. My take is that we are all volunteers, and every positive edit or action we make is an asset to the community and to the encyclopaedia, but we are under no obligation at all to make any edit or do any action. If at any time I fall behind on any minimal amount of edits or actions (as I did recently with the global renaming right) then I have absolutely no problem with that right being taken away. I'd rather have a right taken away because of non-use, or resign it, than stress about using it just in order to keep it. I think your approach is the right one. <a href="/wiki/User:SilkTork" title="User:SilkTork">SilkTork</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:SilkTork" title="User talk:SilkTork">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-SilkTork-20220717150000-Valereee-20220717125600" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">15:00, 17 July 2022 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd>Soon after I desysop'd, I found myself dithering over requesting pp on a COI issue that I would have just semi’d for a couple of days myself. Laziness over having to explain my reasoning to someone else when what was happening, though slightly complicated to explain, was clear to me? Knowing a response in such a situation could take long enough that the request might be moot by the time someone else dealt with it? Some combination, probably. Those kinds of things kept happening. Minor things I could have handled. I think the crucial issue in whether retaining a rarely-used perm is a net positive is that the perm holder is sure their understanding isn't outdated. Unfortunately, that's a concern. <a href="/wiki/User:Valereee" title="User:Valereee">valereee</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Valereee" title="User talk:Valereee">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-Valereee-20220717154400-SilkTork-20220717150000" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">15:44, 17 July 2022 (UTC)</a></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd> <dd><img alt="" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/f/fb/Yes_check.svg/18px-Yes_check.svg.png" decoding="async" width="18" height="18" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/f/fb/Yes_check.svg/27px-Yes_check.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/f/fb/Yes_check.svg/36px-Yes_check.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="600" data-file-height="600"/> Done I don't want to curtail a good discussion (feel free to return to it afterwards), but 24 hours has now passed with no reason not to return the toolset.

I know that it is only August and a lot of things can happen over the next four months but assuming that things continue on as usual, do you expect Wikipedia to lose dozens of admins due to not meeting the new standards of activity? Or hundreds? Of course, I'm not looking for an exact answer, which won't be known until January, just a hint at the scale of the change brought on by this RfC. And, also, I realize that many deactivated admins could return to reestablish their privileges in 2023 after resuming a more substantial level of activity on the project. Thanks for any clue you can offer! <a href="/wiki/User:Liz" title="User:Liz">Liz</a> <a href="/wiki/Special:Contributions/Liz" title="Special:Contributions/Liz">Read!</a> <a href="/wiki/User_talk:Liz" title="User talk:Liz">Talk!</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-Liz-20220807212900-Query" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">21:29, 7 August 2022 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd>Hi Liz!

It's not 100% accurate, as it doesn't handle non-standard usernames and I haven't taken into account recent sysops / desysops, but your welcome to look there to get a feel for how many individuals were originally going to disappear who have now returned sufficiently to activity.

Well, here's the thing Xasoflux. Maybe there's a small collection of admins who feel failed by the project. Run off, because of abuse, hate, relentlessly receiving emails to the point you block the wp email forwarder. I went to pretty much entirely IP editing because of the hate from several people (that Malleus account's followers, the climate change chap who was an admin and just spent his time protecting his articles, the awful Jehochman or whatever he was called account that was entirely PR for him, Majorly or whatever he was called and his long term grudge, the people that hated on Keeper76 and sent him violent abuse. I could go on about the long, long Wikipedia history). I've logged back in to make admin/editor actions of which a flat f'ing zero have been contested. Your contention (accurate as it may be) glosses over the hard reality of tenured admins. We don't keep the bit because of self importance. We keep it because we can be useful. <a href="/wiki/User:Pedro" title="User:Pedro">Pedro</a> : <a href="/wiki/User_talk:Pedro" title="User talk:Pedro"> Chat </a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-Pedro-20221001215700-109.235.247.80-20221001102000" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">21:57, 1 October 2022 (UTC)</a> <ul><li>But if an admin isn't doing anything except reverting the inactivity notices on his talk page, he's about as useful as a fresh, Russian conscript. <a href="/wiki/User:Dennis_Brown" title="User:Dennis Brown">Dennis Brown</a> - <a href="/wiki/User_talk:Dennis_Brown" title="User talk:Dennis Brown">2¢</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-Dennis_Brown-20221001225500-Pedro-20221001215700" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">22:55, 1 October 2022 (UTC)</a></li></ul> <dl><dd>I was <ins>not</ins> making a judgement about GraemeL, just an observation.

I just ran into an admin who I was unfamiliar with and when I checked out their contributions, they had done a bucketload of antivandalism work recently but their last 200 contributions go back to 2014!. And their user page had said they were inactive until today when they changed it to state they will occasionally be using their current account. Their admin log seems a bit forced with lots of IP blocks over a brief amount of time and revision deletions of the Sandbox. It seems rather obvious that they are fulfilling the letter of the new activity requirements but even AGF, I don't think they plan on contributing to the project much in the future. My question to you all is how much leeway do bureaucrats have when these new activity requirements come into play? If an admin satisfies them by the letter of the law but seems to be gaming the system, would you remove their admin privileges? Or are your hands tied in this matter and you do not have discretion? I'm sorry for not being more specific but I don't want to make this admin the sudden focus of attention and I doubt this is the only example of this occurring. Thanks for any further elaboration you can offer. <a href="/wiki/User:Liz" title="User:Liz">Liz</a> <a href="/wiki/Special:Contributions/Liz" title="Special:Contributions/Liz">Read!</a> <a href="/wiki/User_talk:Liz" title="User talk:Liz">Talk!</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-Liz-20221016030800-Query_about_new_activity_requirements_for_admins" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">03:08, 16 October 2022 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd>The only areas that crats have discretion are when closing RfAs in the discretionary range or choosing to deny resysop requests.

Another ‘crat may correct me if I’m mistaken, but I believe the only “discretion” regarding activity requirements would be in taking into account things that the bot(s) don’t see as edits (such as edits from an alternate account.) We can’t “discount” edits just because they appear to be pointless or make-work just to fill the new requirements. Now, if the edits are outright bad, then that would definitely be something to flag for attention, but not here, since even bad edits could be used to satisfy the activity requirements. <a href="/wiki/User:28bytes" title="User:28bytes">28bytes</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:28bytes" title="User talk:28bytes">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-28bytes-20221016034600-Liz-20221016030800" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">03:46, 16 October 2022 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd>Agreed with the above; we do not have the authority to verify, qualify, or otherwise interpret for the sake of discounting edits (and I would argue, none of us would want to do this task). <a href="/wiki/User:Primefac" title="User:Primefac">Primefac</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Primefac" title="User talk:Primefac">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-Primefac-20221016093400-28bytes-20221016034600" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">09:34, 16 October 2022 (UTC)</a></dd></dl></dd> <dd>Of course the new requirements are gameable. Any such requirements are. These ones, like the previous one-edit-per-year one, barely even try not to be; in a few years' time, we'll be able to point at admins who have exactly twenty edits per year, done all at once in one or perhaps two bursts.<div class="paragraphbreak" style="margin-top:0.5em"></div>There's ways to minimize gameability (say, by desysopping some percentage or fixed number of the least active admins each year) or to ensure that gaming the system has useful side effects (say, requiring some number of logged actions in mainspace each year, with an expectation that admins near the minimum will have those actions examined and be referred to arbitration if they're frivolous or plain bad). The new requirements, though, were <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Voting_is_evil" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:Voting is evil">rushed straight to voting</a>, so there was never a realistic chance to propose alternatives.<div class="paragraphbreak" style="margin-top:0.5em"></div>(We're <a href="https://quarry.wmcloud.org/query/67813" class="extiw" title="quarry:query/67813">down to 154</a> still on track to be desysopped in January, btw.) —<a href="/wiki/User:Cryptic" class="mw-redirect" title="User:Cryptic">Cryptic</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-Cryptic-20221016040000-Liz-20221016030800" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">04:00, 16 October 2022 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd>I've seen so many RfC's fail - I put together one I could see passing. I was hoping some further tweaking would happen next year. Yes, it is gameable, and I acknowledged that at the time, but it took a modicum of effort to get from zero to minimal. <a href="/wiki/User:Worm_That_Turned" title="User:Worm That Turned">Worm</a>TT(<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Worm_That_Turned" title="User talk:Worm That Turned">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-Worm_That_Turned-20221016074900-Cryptic-20221016040000" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">07:49, 16 October 2022 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd>I think the RfC was well-thought out and well-structured. The problem is that there is a wide spectrum of views among editors on the purpose of the inactivity policy, and those views have shifted significantly over time, from the initial “we need to verify if they’re still alive for security purposes” to “we need some sort of meaningful engagement with the community.”Likewise there’s a big disconnect over what constitutes “gaming”: if the single edit per year requirement is simply to confirm you’re among the living, it’s not gaming to say “yes, I am” once a year. But a lot of people view that as gaming since many of the people supporting activity requirements do indeed feel like people with the administrative toolset should contribute more than just a yearly confirmation that they still have a pulse.There are other ways of gauging engagement than a numerical requirement, but those have their own set of issues and unforeseen side effects. That said, the door to another RfC is always open if there are new ideas for how to better handle inactivity concerns. <a href="/wiki/User:28bytes" title="User:28bytes">28bytes</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:28bytes" title="User talk:28bytes">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-28bytes-20221016141900-Worm_That_Turned-20221016074900" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">14:19, 16 October 2022 (UTC)</a></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd> <dd>@Liz, you may not think that admin intends to contribute much to the project in the future, but we have no way of knowing that. Unless we hear that an editor has died, there's always the possibility of a return, and we need to keep an open welcome for admins and other editors who come back after a divorce, career change or the kids growing up. Ideally the increased requirement will give us enough insight that the account is still in the hands of someone who knows what they are doing. In a few months time we will be in a position to judge whether this succeeded in removing a large number of currently inactive admins, in the long term we should be able to see what effect this had on the reactivation rate of longterm inactive admins. My assumption is that anyone who increases their activity in order to meet the new threshold is currently busy in real life but hopes to be able to return here. <a href="/wiki/User:WereSpielChequers" title="User:WereSpielChequers">Ϣere</a><a href="/wiki/User_talk:WereSpielChequers" title="User talk:WereSpielChequers">Spiel</a>Chequers <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-WereSpielChequers-20221016085400-Liz-20221016030800" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">08:54, 16 October 2022 (UTC)</a></dd></dl> <ul><li>Related query to Liz or others who may wish to guide me.

However if an admin has closed 90 RFCs/contributed 90 FAs so clear and complete that they don't generate more than an average of 1.1 edits each, there's nothing to stop them running an RFA. Or just contributing a few more edits. I mean IAR remains, but it is hard to imagine a scenario where an editor who has contributed less than 100 edits or other actions in the last five years could be considered to have made significant contributions in those five years. <a href="/wiki/User:WereSpielChequers" title="User:WereSpielChequers">Ϣere</a><a href="/wiki/User_talk:WereSpielChequers" title="User talk:WereSpielChequers">Spiel</a>Chequers <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-WereSpielChequers-20221016101800-Lourdes-20221016094700" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">10:18, 16 October 2022 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd>I don't think Lourde's query is purely a hypothetical; if you look at her logs and contributions, she isn't at risk of being desysopped anytime soon, but if her current pattern of contributions and admin actions(Since October of last year) continued, she would have over 1000 administrative actions and less than 100 edits in four years time, putting her at risk of removal for "inactivity" then. <a href="/wiki/User:Jackattack1597" title="User:Jackattack1597">Jackattack1597</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Jackattack1597" title="User talk:Jackattack1597">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-Jackattack1597-20221016113300-WereSpielChequers-20221016101800" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">11:33, 16 October 2022 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd>Thanks Jackattack.

As volunteers we can choose to carry out a legitimate action or not, but we can't choose to carry out an illegitimate action. So, if as an individual we feel that an admin is making a good faith attempt to contribute to the project and stay in touch with the community, though their contributions may have fallen just below the figure needed to remain an admin, we can as an individual elect not to desysop, leaving it to another 'Crat to do the deed. But we can't as an individual pick out an admin who does meet the criteria, but that we personally feel is gaming the system, and desysop them, nor would we agree to do that as a body, because as a body we carry out the wishes of the community. If someone in the community spots an admin they feel is gaming the system and so they feel should be desysopped, they could raise a RfC to change the activity rules or open an ArbCom case under AdminConduct, but they could not come straight to us to ask for a desysop - we can only desysop under community rules, so if an individual (other than the admin themselves) asks us we say no, but if ArbCom asks us we say yes. <a href="/wiki/User:SilkTork" title="User:SilkTork">SilkTork</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:SilkTork" title="User talk:SilkTork">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-SilkTork-20221016104500-Liz-20221016030800" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">10:45, 16 October 2022 (UTC)</a></li> <li>Like most of the notes above I agree, we are not going to desysop someone on inactivity grounds because we subjectively don't think some specific edits are should be qualified to count or not. The closest we have to discretion there is in deciding if certain non-edit actions count as 'administrative actions' or not, but that isn't in play here. If someone were to make lots of pointless edits, that could be considered disruption and standard behavioral processes can deal with it. — <a href="/wiki/User:Xaosflux" title="User:Xaosflux">xaosflux</a> <a href="/wiki/User_talk:Xaosflux" title="User talk:Xaosflux">Talk</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-Xaosflux-20221016152400-Liz-20221016030800" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">15:24, 16 October 2022 (UTC)</a></li></ul> <div style="padding-left: 1.6em; font-style: italic; border-top: 1px solid #a2a9b1; margin: 0.5em 0; padding-top: 0.5em">The discussion above is closed.

year editor and admin here. Wikipedia used to be fun. You could add good content at your own pace and it would be well received. Today, in 2022, I hereby resign because every time I have added good content for the last few years I get hassled or it gets outright deleted. It seems nobody gives a damn. Wikipedia has clearly lost its way. Allied projects have the same problems. There are so many incidents at this point I can't see a future for me donating time here. At this point, I largely regret having done so. Furthermore, I believe the leadership is terrible, despite my best efforts voting for people it seems the whole thing is stuck in a quagmire of mis-conceived policies and self-service, meanwhile abusing volunteers. God only knows where the donation money goes, computers don't cost that much to run. There are also massive systemic abuse problems like paid editors (I recently had a great historic photo deleted by someone abusing copyright rules for a national government), policy quagmire, and a lack of experienced editors. There are lists of sources that are banned that basically disallow content from almost any online source in China, which means there's a widening cultural gap between China and the rest of the world. I used to believe Wikipedia was about sharing and making the world a better place. Now I believe it's worse than the rest of the media and systemic abuses rife. Some of the things I am proud of contributing include the <a href="/wiki/Timeline_of_Buddhism" title="Timeline of Buddhism">Timeline of Buddhism</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Bitcoin" title="Bitcoin">Bitcoin</a> article, early COVID statistics coverage in animated maps (many times daily), reports of corruption inside Wikimedia (nothing was done AFAIK), and positive support for new language Wikipedias at a Wiki conference. Things I can't stand: deletionists, over-use of policies and bureaucracy. I'd like to wish this place well but the English Wikipedia community clearly continues to decline. The degree of tolerability even for experienced editors is virtually zero. Wikipedia's replacement will probably be AI driven and superior. Goodbye. Thanks for the good times, old-school editors. To the abusers - you know who you are - you are destroying something that was once great. It will not recover. Should anyone take this seriously (hah, never!), here's a plan to restore positive direction. Step one: relax notability. Step two: stop flagging new content for deletion. Step three: Require that people make three articles for every one they flag. Step four: If foreign language wikipedias have coverage of something, allow it by default.

Great to hear from you. I'd love to give you your tool kit back, unfortunately there has been a tightening of the rules since you were desysopped, and since you've not used your admin tools for over five years (see <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators#Restoration_of_adminship" title="Wikipedia:Administrators">Wikipedia:Administrators#Restoration_of_adminship</a>), you'll need to go via RfA in order to get your tools back. <a href="/wiki/User:SilkTork" title="User:SilkTork">SilkTork</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:SilkTork" title="User talk:SilkTork">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-SilkTork-20221026165100-ClockworkSoul-20221026164500" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">16:51, 26 October 2022 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd>Hi! I remember you! That seems like a pretty arbitrary rule. I wonder what its motivation is? Well, I guess I'll have to run the gauntlet again. One the the things I've observed that has made me want to return is the really burdensome bureaucracy that's crept into Wikipedia. I've heard complaints from would-be users about being <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:BITE" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:BITE">bitten</a> for (well-intentioned) minor transgressions (like trying to create an article). Having experienced more than one example of that on my return, I'm eager to be back at the reins. – <a href="/wiki/User:ClockworkSoul" title="User:ClockworkSoul">Clockwork</a><a href="/wiki/User_talk:ClockworkSoul" title="User talk:ClockworkSoul">Soul</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-ClockworkSoul-20221026180900-SilkTork-20221026165100" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">18:09, 26 October 2022 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd>As one of the people who helped tighten the activity requirements I guess I can reply to this. A great many problems have been caused by admins who went entirely inactive for long periods of time, then simply came back and started using admin tools again without taking the time to re-familiarize themselves with current practices and policies. A lot has changed in the 12 years since you last used your admin tools, maybe some of it not for the better, but the activity requirements are there to reduce drama and biting of new users. <a href="/wiki/User:Beeblebrox" class="mw-redirect" title="User:Beeblebrox">Beeblebrox</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Beeblebrox" class="mw-redirect" title="User talk:Beeblebrox">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-Beeblebrox-20221026181800-ClockworkSoul-20221026180900" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">18:18, 26 October 2022 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd><dl><dd>That's entirely fair, and makes total sense.

I share grievances any time someone mentions biting new users, (and potentially returning users such as yourself) and that is damaging to the project. The activity requirements are here to prevent users who are not up to date with the current policies from using advanced permissions and potentially causing users more stress or editing against policy or consensus. I would welcome anyone who was willing to put in good work to avoid angst for new users, but would also request that someone looking to do so had spent a reasonable amount of time making edits to modern Wikipedia before a potential RfA. A lot has changed in the last 10-15 years, and it's not unfair for the community to want to vet any new admin or those returning to the tools. <a href="/wiki/User:Lee_Vilenski" title="User:Lee Vilenski">Lee Vilenski</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Lee_Vilenski" title="User talk:Lee Vilenski">talk</a> • <a href="/wiki/Special:Contributions/Lee_Vilenski" title="Special:Contributions/Lee Vilenski">contribs</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard/Archive_47#c-Lee_Vilenski-20221026214000-Beeblebrox-20221026181800" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">21:40, 26 October 2022 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd>That makes sense.
