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.

Bureaucrats, there a number of users who feel that I have abused my admin rights and engaged in moving wars. Although I did my edits with the best of intentions to help the project, it has also created controversy, and after a decade of being a sysop I request that my status be changed. Thank you. Gryffindor (talk) 12:05, 13 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Just to be clear, the header says resysop, and Gryffindor is asking for a desysop. — Moe Epsilon 12:08, 13 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

(edit conflict) I think you meant to head this "Desysop request", didn't you, Gryffindor? Bishonen | talk 12:09, 13 April 2018 (UTC).[reply]

That's what the template at the top said, sorry about the confusion. I just corrected it. Gryffindor (talk) 12:11, 13 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

 Done thank you for your service. — xaosflux ^Talk 13:22, 13 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

FWIW, here's a link to the discussion for the archives. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 18:27, 13 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Can the Crats confirm that this is not under a cloud just for record. Here is the ANI discussion.It has gone only to ANI not Arbcom. Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 19:10, 13 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The cloud discussion would generally come up at the time of re-sysopping, but for the record, I would suggest that there is a cloud here and that Gryffindor should consider running for RfA again. There "under a cloud" terminology really refers to section 2 of

WP:RESYSOP, which states that 'crats should Check their talk page history and any pertinent discussions or noticeboards for indications that they may have resigned (or become inactive) for the purpose, or with the effect, of evading scrutiny of their actions that could have led to sanctions. It has a note that this especially applies to resigning before an Arbcom case, but not exclusively. Worm^TT(talk) 19:26, 13 April 2018 (UTC)[reply

I bear Gryffindor no ill will at all, but as an observer of the AN/I discussion, I would agree with Worm That Turned that there is a cloud here, and would argue as such if a re-sysopping was requested. Beyond My Ken (talk) 00:42, 14 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Agree with WTT, FWIW. -- Euryalus (talk) 08:00, 14 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure that as a non-'crat it's appropriate for me to be commenting here, but just for the record I concur with WTT. It is not sure that Gryffindor will ever want the tools back, but he is free at any time to request them here and the Bureaucrats will decide at that point if a resysoping RfA will be required.

Just a note for the record that I removed User:Coffee's admin & edit filter rights yesterday, suspended at his request on the Arbcom mailing list. There is a bit of private information also involved, so there is little more I can say at this point. Worm^TT(talk) 14:32, 17 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
