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.

intadmin request (L235)

L235 (t · th · c · del · cross-wiki · SUL · edit counter · pages created (xtools · sigma) · non-automated edits · BLP edits · undos · manual reverts · rollbacks · logs ^{(blocks · rights · moves)} · rfar · spi · cci) (assign permissions)^{(acc · ap · ev · fm · mms · npr · pm · pc · rb · te)}

I'd like to request intadmin to assist with JS/CSS/MediaWiki namespace maintenance. I have 2FA (and a strong password) enabled on my account, and am aware of the privacy expectations on the Wikimedia projects and a sufficient understanding of JavaScript to notice and catch e.g. potential XSS issues.

On hold Standard 48-hour hold for 1st time requesters. — xaosflux ^Talk 17:07, 27 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Since I have a friendship with Kevin, I'd be the wrong person to press the buttons on this as a crat, but do want to express my support and trust in him as an editor. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 17:12, 27 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Another easy one; support. House Blaster (talk • he/they) 19:58, 27 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Btw, why is the reason "procedural removal dur to inactivity per Special:Permalink/1293310648#Wikipedia:Inactive_administrators/2023#November_2023 at WP:BN"? —— Eric Liu_{（Talk・Guestbook）} 06:53, 1 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I believe it was a mistake. Xaosflux accidentally copied the wrong link. – DreamRimmer ■ 07:29, 1 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

OK, cf. discussion last month. —— Eric Liu_{（Talk・Guestbook）} 09:20, 1 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I was watching for that too - going to purge my autocomplete buffer now, I'll fix that entry. — xaosflux ^Talk 11:25, 1 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Purged that buffer, thank you for the note, apologies for any confusion. — xaosflux ^Talk 11:28, 1 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Recall petition certified (Bbb23)

Bbb23 (talk · contribs · blocks · protections · deletions · page moves · rights · RfA)

Around six hours ago, a petition to initiate recall proceedings against Bbb23 reached the necessary 25 signatures, and has been closed as certified. Bbb23 indicated in that thread that they won't be standing for a reconfirmation RfA – I'll leave it to the 'crats on whether they want to change Bbb23's admin flag to sunset in 30 days from the closure of the petition or, absent a post from Bbb23 here, wait until the 30 days are up to discuss this again. Many thanks. theleekycauldron (talk • she/her) 21:51, 6 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
