Thank you for the hard work and dedication you've shown to the Wikipedia community. Sad to see you go. —Tom Morris (talk)08:05, 1 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I too was stunned to see this, and am sad to see you go. Hope all is well with you and that this won't be the last time we meet.StevenZhang^{Help resolve disputes!}12:47, 1 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• I've known this day was coming for some time now, and I certainly understand why. Thanks for the tremendous amount of support and assistance you've given me over the last year. Don't be a stranger off-wiki.Dennis Brown | 2¢ | WER15:27, 1 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• I've known you for a long time and you have been an all round great editor. Thanks for all your hard work and hope to see you someday back on Wikipedia. Goodbye. ~TheGeneralUser(talk)17:46, 2 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
• Thank you for what you have done. You've been a tremendous asset to the community and will be missed.NativeForeigner^Talk02:38, 3 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
• I haven't known you for very long, but you seemed like me to be a good administrator and checkuser, as well as an all-around nice guy, and I'm sorry to see you go. I understand, however, that there may be real-life reasons for your retirement that I don't know of. — SamX‧☎‧✎‧S14:04, 3 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
• Thank you for all the tremendous work you did here. You became one of the most exemplary Wikipedians and this is a very big loss to the project. I wish you the best of luck in your future endeavours. Cheers! —ΛΧΣ²¹01:35, 4 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've unblocked, at least for now,207.159.196.253 (talk ·contribs), which is used by staff and patrons at theQueens Library. They're having a wiki-workshop training session tomorrow (requiring several new accounts to be registered), and besides that there have not been any bad edits from that IP recently.--Pharos (talk)01:08, 17 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Pharos. As WilliamH has retired, I'll take the liberty of responding. Since the abusive user has returned to that location a number of times to register and use sockpuppets, please let me know when the workshop has wrapped up so that the IP can be reblocked. I don't like blocking public library IPs like this, but sometimes we don't have a lot of choices. Thanks ​—DoRD (talk)​03:54, 17 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Can some talk page watcher identify the sockmaster for 24.19.234.62? The same user has returned to trolling & harassment as 50.174.76.70 and was blocked again. Looks like aWP:LTA case already.Someone not using his real name (talk)03:33, 25 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You are receiving this message because you are listed atWikipedia:Bureaucrats#Former bureaucrats. Writ Keeper pointed out that these users were not directly notified of thecommunity discussion ending August 2015, where consensus was reached toremove the bureaucrat permissions of users who have not participated in bureaucrat activity for three years.

As of 1 October 2015, any former bureaucrat who has not participated in bureaucrat activity for three years that wishes their bureaucrat permissions restored will need to request reinstatement at RFB.

If you intend to return to bureaucrat activity, please requestrestoration of permissions before 1 October 2015 or three years passes since your last bureaucrat activity, whichever is later.

To assist with the implementation of this requirement, please seeWikipedia:Bureaucrat activity. Modeled afterWikipedia:Inactive administrators and similar to that process, thelog page will be created on 1 September 2015. Bureaucrats who have not met the activity requirements as of that date will be notified by email (where possible) and on their talk page to advise of the pending removal.

If the notified user does not return to bureaucrat activity and the permissions are removed, they will need to request reinstatement atWP:RFB. Removal of access is procedural only, and not intended to reflect negatively upon the affected user in any way.

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. –xeno^talk20:53, 18 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Please note that any potential restoration of permissions is also subject toWikipedia:Bureaucrats#Inactive bureaucrat accounts: a former bureaucrat who has been completely inactive for three years would need to seek reinstatement atWP:RFB notwithstanding the above. –xeno^talk12:25, 6 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
