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.

Request Re-Adminship

Hello,

I am an admin that was less active in the last year, and hence got provisionally suspended. If possible I would like to request re-adminship. Please let me know if there are any actions I would need to take beyond this request. Many thanks :) Chris 73 | Talk 15:58, 28 October 2015 (UTC)

Hi welcome back. I'm feeling a bit rusty, so I'm not 100% sure, but I think we agreed to wait at least 24 hours from a Crat saying "looks OK", before granting the mop back, in case someone has good grounds for objecting. So, from my perspective, looks OK. Hopefully, we'll switch you back on in a day. --Dweller (talk) 16:24, 28 October 2015 (UTC)

I don't see any issues, and yes, there is a 24 hour waiting period. ···日本穣^? · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 18:00, 28 October 2015 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Yamaguchi先生

Resolved

The candidate in Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Yamaguchi先生 is not active so has been unable to respond to questions. His editing pattern indicates that he doesn't edit weekends, and perhaps he didn't consider the significance of that when the RfA started. Or perhaps he is ill or unable to get online. We don't know. But folks are starting to vote oppose based on that. As he is not available to respond to concerns, and we don't really know why, would it be appropriate to suspend the RfA over the weekend? SilkTork ^{✔Tea time} 10:11, 1 November 2015 (UTC)

I'd say not. If he is unavailable, he can address those opposes when he gets back, and if he has decided to not respond, the voters can take that into account. Worm^TT(talk) 10:18, 1 November 2015 (UTC)

Per Worm and further the candidate does not appear to edit regularly on weekends as per Timecard and after going through Yamaguchi's contributions during the last month shows the editor does not edit on weekends and it does appear to be his/her normal editing pattern .Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 10:25, 1 November 2015 (UTC)

• MusikAnimal appears to be familiar with the candidate. (as noted here). The length of absence is beginning to appear abnormal. You may want to re-evaluate this. — Ched :  ?  19:47, 2 November 2015 (UTC)
