User:Nosebagbear/Recall

This page details the Recall methodology for my (Nosebagbear's) administrator userrights.

I agreed to recall during my RfA, which would then be followed by a Community discussion of several recall methods. All were firmly denied for myriad issues. This somewhat had the effect of discouraging me, having highlighted potential flaws. Nevertheless, I've attempted to create a method that includes some safeguards. This means it is more complicated than some recall criteria, but far less than others. Given how serious being recalled is for me, I hope that you are willing to concede some reading and some rules a fair trade.

This option is in addition to alternate desysop routes, including ARBCOM and any standard community-recall method.

Method

Triggering

Triggering the recall process can be done by 10 individuals signing their names below.
Editors must meet the following criteria:

Have 1000 edits and have an account at least 6 months old
Never have undertaken paid editing
Never have been blocked (either directly or as part of an ANI discussion) by me, except where such blocks were overturned as bad blocks
Not have been blocked in the last year, or received an ANI/AE/Arbcom warning or admonishment in the previous 6 months. Warnings issued by an individual editor are not an impediment.

Editors must provide a reason(s) that they, or another individual, have discussed with me in good faith beforehand. The reason must have occurred within the previous 3 months.

Alternate resolution limitations

A reason that is discussed on a proper Community board and decides an (in)action was specifically correct will not be accepted.
A reason (including any combination raised in evidence) that is discussed by ARBCOM will be taken as a final judgement. In effect, ARBCOM overrules the recall process, so if they decide I was at fault, but only to the tune of an admonition, can't then be submitted again as a Recall trigger (unless I do something else, in which case obviously editors are completely free to consider a "net weight" issue).
In progress ARBCOM cases must conclude before Recall is triggered, but any time-limits will be "tolled".

Recall Process

If the criteria are met (or if I think they're clearly going to be met), I will do one of the following within 10 days:

Resign (under a cloud)
Submit to a desysop RfA as created by a community consideration, should such a method exist at the time, using whatever criteria are standard.
Submit to a Recall RfA - decided under the usual criteria for passing an RfA
Set-up a "Recall RfC", most likely at AN - a consensus to remove would trigger my resignation
Request an Arbcom case into my actions - this has been considered but not executed before, but should it appear possible I reserve the right to "trial by court martial".

Should I attempt to use a method, and it not prove viable (e.g. ARBCOM refusing to hear a case), then another method will be selected within 72 hours.

Misc

If a signature has been there a month, and 10 signatures haven't been reached, it will be removed.
I will endeavour to find several individuals who can "clerk" an RfC, preferably admins or arbcom clerks who I do not have either a particularly close or negative link with.
Reasons must be based purely off on-wiki visible community discussions.

Amendments

Except as required by policy changes, any amendment to reduce the scope of this recall will be posted to WP:AN and will take effect 30 days later. Any individuals currently having requested recall will be notified about the proposal by a ping.
Any amendment to expand the scope (e.g. lowering the number of editors required for listing) can be made immediately.
