::I see your point Will, but [[WP:INACTIVITY]] clearly states "''Admin '''accounts''' which have made no edits or administrative actions for at least 12 months may be desysopped''" (emphasis mine).

For sensitive matters, you may contact an individual bureaucrat directly by e-mail.
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.

Desysop again please
I'm about to use the admin tools for one last time to block my own account. When you see I have done it, please then feel free to remove my admin bit again - I shan't be back, so I will not be requesting its restoration again. — Alan / Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 22:29, 31 July 2014 (UTC)
- Done. Your account can of course be unblocked at any time should you request it. WJBscribe (talk) 22:46, 31 July 2014 (UTC)
The following admins can be desysopped for inactivity:
- Goodoldpolonius2 (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)
- Bryan Derksen (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)
- Jeffrey O. Gustafson (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)
Thanks to all of them for their service to Wikipedia. Graham87 06:38, 1 August 2014 (UTC)
- Done, thanks to all three for their hard work and here's hoping they return. WormTT(talk) 07:10, 1 August 2014 (UTC)
- Interesting to note that Bryan, at one time, was the #1 (non-bot) editor in terms of edit count. I wonder what to make of this.--S Philbrick(Talk) 01:19, 2 August 2014 (UTC)

I've posted at Jeffery's talk page, inviting him to engage with the Crats or myself. In the meantime, with the link between the accounts likely, but far from rigorous, there doesn't seem to be a strong rationale for overturning the desysopping. --Dweller (talk) 11:14, 4 August 2014 (UTC)
- I agree. Inactive desysops can be easily overturned if the user becomes active, he's been contacted a number of times, I don't see any reason to overturn until he asks. WormTT(talk) 07:05, 5 August 2014 (UTC)

I think the onus should be on us not to remove permissions unless people meet the inactivity criteria, rather than to make someone ask for the tools back when they shouldn't have been removed in the first place.

De-sysop please
Good day,
I no longer see any sense in contributing to this place, and have no needs for the tools I have barely used in years. Good luck. MLauba (Talk) 00:44, 2 August 2014 (UTC)
- Done Thank you for your service and good luck. Acalamari 08:07, 2 August 2014 (UTC)
Wold a 'crat care to stroll over to the above RFA and indent a few of the WP:SPA opposes? [1] [2] [3] Pedro : Chat 07:46, 5 August 2014 (UTC)
- Hi Pedro, thanks for bringing this here. I'm not a fan of protecting RfA pages but I've semi-protected Mkativerata's request until the closing time and have blocked two of the accounts/IPs; Anna Frodesiak blocked the rest (thanks, Anna!). Acalamari 07:57, 5 August 2014 (UTC)
