[edit] Current administrators

Administrators are given access for one year per the Restricted access policy. Regular votes are held to confirm each user's status. Other languages indicate the areas in which the administrators might be able to converse with outside project members, or help provide public domain translations.

[edit] Confirmation discussions

Restricted access depends on the continued support of the community. This may be tested by a vote of confidence, in which a simple majority (50%+1) must support the user's continued access for it to be retained. (What access a discussion concerns should be explicitly noted in the discussion's introduction.) Any user may propose a vote of confidence, but at least three established users must support the need for one before it can be called. Such a proposal is made automatically one year after the last scheduled or called proposal (concerning all restricted access).

In the case of an unscheduled (called) proposal, the user may not use the restricted access for any non-trivial action at any time until the vote is closed. A bureaucrat will eventually archive the discussion and, if so decided, request removal of restricted access by a steward.

[edit] Angr

The following discussion is closed and will soon be archived: Confirmed
Administrator since October 2008 by consensus (see previous discussions), currently active (contributions, logs, crosswiki). Angr will be reconfirmed automatically unless at least three established users oppose, which will trigger an election with decision by simple majority.
  • Support, very definitely an active contributor to the project. Jude (talk) 04:54, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
  • Support, Angr is not using the tools a lot, but there are no problems when he does. John Vandenberg (chat) 08:43, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
  • Support billinghurst (talk) 10:28, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Durova

The following discussion is closed and will soon be archived: Confirmed
Administrator since October 2008 by consensus (see previous discussions), currently inactive (contributions, logs, crosswiki). Durova will be removed automatically unless a simple majority of established users support continued access.
  • Neutral No specific concerns. Not used admin tools in the past 12 months. Wanted back to get back to the music. -- billinghurst (talk) 10:27, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
  • Support I announce the creation of the Durova Cup that will be presented to those with the username Durova who contribute to WS during each year, and not skive off to the competition. Emblem-BadTooth.svg billinghurst (talk) 20:29, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
  • Comment I have sent Durova a courtesy note that her adminship is being discussed here. John Vandenberg (chat) 11:44, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
  • Comment Hi, and thanks to John Vandenberg for a courtesy note about this discussion. About a year ago I received an invitation for something called the WikiCup, and it turned out to be much more consuming than expected (more here). That ended with the close of October and have retired from the Cup, so that frees up more time. WS should see more of me now. :) Durova (talk) 15:20, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
  • Support, conditional on him still being active at the end of the poll ;) Sherurcij Collaboration of the Week: Author:Khwaja Kamal-ud-Din. 18:04, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
  • Support Cirt (talk) 18:27, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

  • Support - your cup runneth over. John Vandenberg (chat) 21:33, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
  • Support as I believe I came here per an old suggestion of her that got lost in the mix, I think. Best, --A Nobody (talk) 04:42, 30 November 2009 (UTC)
  • SupportJack Merridew 09:59, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
  • Confirmed.—Zhaladshar (Talk) 13:57, 1 December 2009 (UTC)

[edit] EVula

The following discussion is closed and will soon be archived: Confirmed
Administrator since November 2008 by consensus (see previous discussions), currently inactive (contributions, logs, crosswiki). EVula will be removed automatically unless a simple majority of established users support continued access.
  • Support, No concerns. Activity dropped in February when EVula was elected as an oversighter on English Wikipedia at a time when we desperately needed more hands on deck. EVula travels around the wikis a lot. In addition to adding Wikisource links to other projects, I've spotted him over at Romanian Wikisource and Korean Wikisource, linking our projects together. John Vandenberg (chat) 10:13, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
    Comment I have sent EVula a courtesy note that his adminship is being discussed here. John Vandenberg (chat) 11:44, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
  • Support. No concerns at this time. -- billinghurst (talk) 10:26, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
  • Support Cirt (talk) 18:27, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
  • Support --Zyephyrus (talk) 19:46, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

  • SupportJack Merridew 09:59, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
  • Confirmed.—Zhaladshar (Talk) 13:57, 1 December 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Politicaljunkie

The following discussion is closed and will soon be archived: Not confirmed
Administrator since September 2007 by consensus (see previous discussions), currently inactive (contributions, logs, crosswiki). Politicaljunkie will be removed automatically unless a simple majority of established users support continued access.
  • Oppose. Politicaljunkie's last confirmation passed, but they have not edited since then. Oppose for the same reasons I opposed last year. Jude (talk) 04:54, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
  • Oppose, while the other two are only inactive ~4 months; PJ has been inactive over a year. If/when he returns, he can re-apply for adminship without prejudice. But having inactives listed on the Administrator list is bad for communication. Sherurcij Collaboration of the Week: Author:Khwaja Kamal-ud-Din. 06:38, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
  • Oppose per above. John Vandenberg (chat) 09:27, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
    Comment I have sent Politicaljunkie a courtesy note that their adminship is being discussed here. John Vandenberg (chat) 11:44, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
  • Oppose Wot they said. billinghurst (talk) 10:25, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
  • Oppose Cirt (talk) 18:27, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
  • Oppose -- Maximillion Pegasus (talk) 20:33, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
  • Oppose - I supported last year in case he wanted to come back and be active again, but it seems he didn't. Angr 21:29, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
  • Oppose — as inactive. Jack Merridew 09:59, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
  • Not confirmed.—Zhaladshar (Talk) 13:57, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
