    To contact bureaucrats to alert them of an urgent issue, please post below.
    For sensitive matters, you may contact an individual bureaucrat directly by e-mail.
    You may use this tool to locate recently active bureaucrats.

    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.

    @Xaosflux how are actions that require either admin rights or a specific user right granted to a user group, which that admin isn't in, handled? Specifically, Special:Redirect/logid/101196308 from August 2019 shows LinguistAtLarge using patrol rights that are a part of both the admin toolkit and the new page reviewer user group. Should that be counted as an admin action? (of course, the same argument can be extended to using rollback, or autopatrolling page creation, as admin actions, and many other uses of user rights that are not a part of the rights given to all users) DannyS712 (talk) 02:43, 1 November 2020 (UTC)Reply
