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.

OK - start the clock, deepdive for clouds, and discuss. I'll officially ask for the tools back. "May I please have my tools back". I see that Dank doesn't do wp:update anymore, so a bit more chasing around for changes - but meh. Page protection reading coming up. But since I'm not required to undertake any actions, I've got time to catch up before I actually do anything. I also re-found the editing tool bar so I can add refs in a more proper manner. I still have some MAJOR reservations about WMF/T&S - but that's a discussion for (many) other places. Anyway - hello folks, nice to see ya. I'll check back here in a day or two for any changes. Cheers. — Ched : ? — 23:50, 22 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome back @Ched: as we said, there is a standard 24-hour hold on these; per the initial review above I don't see any impediments to restoration at this time. — xaosflux ^Talk 23:52, 22 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you Xaosflux (yes, I was familiar with the 24 hour thing :-)) - and for ease of search: RfA [1] and Resignation[2] — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ched (talk • contribs)

This is probably great news, but there's a .00001% chance that this is the straw that breaks the wiki's back. I say we risk it. Hiya Ched! --Floquenbeam (talk) 00:30, 23 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

No issues I can see once the 24-hour period is complete. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 00:43, 23 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I have no opinion on this matter, I am simply deep diving for clouds as requested. There was a link to your resignation above, however, you link to your own resignation in this discussion with the (now-deceased) Kevin Gorman after you told him to "dig [his] arrogant self-righteous head out of [his] ass". You were also providing information to the evidence page of Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Kevin Gorman around that time. Those are the only circumstances leading up to your previous resignation that I could find. — Moe Epsilon 11:19, 23 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

There are indeed some very sad memories related to that time. — Ched : ? — 12:40, 23 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I won't clutter up your noticeboard with my reasoning, I'll post that shortly on my talk page. I'd like my tools back, please and thank you. Beeblebrox (talk) 20:43, 26 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Seems fine, standard 24-hour hold for comments. Was a recent self-requested removal, recently active in sysop matters. — xaosflux ^Talk 02:11, 27 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
