== Admin status of [[User:Fram]] ==
{{atop|The [[:meta:Global bans|Meta policy on global bans]] states that {{tq|a global ban is a formal revocation of editing ''or other access privileges''}} (emphasis added). The [[:meta:Office_actions#Primary_office_actions|Office Actions]] as performed by the WMF include partial bans, which hold the same weight as a global ban but are language/site-specific. The WMF (and by extension, the WMFOffice account) does not ''need'' enwiki approval to ban or remove the permissions of a user, and their ''global policy'' specifically states that banned members should not hold access privileges, which include access to <tt>deletedtext</tt> as an admin.{{pb}}
To come back to enwiki policies, our policy on administrators [[Wikipedia:Administrators#Restoration_of_adminship|states]] that {{tq| Regardless of how adminship is removed... In doubtful cases, re-granting will be deferred until a broader community discussion takes places and is closed.}}{{pb}}
Per the above two sections, Fram's bit should not have been restored and will be removed again. WJBscribe has stated that they will not oppose their actions being reversed, and until ArbCom and/or the WMF make a statement as to the outcome of the situation, Fram's userrights should not be changed.

On 26 February 2007, the enwiki community granted admin right to {{user|Fram}}. There has never been a resolution of the enwiki community, nor of its Arbitration Committee, to remove those rights. On 10 June 2019, they were removed unilaterally by {{user|WMFOffice}}. That action has not, in accordance with prior precedent, been referred to the enwiki ArbCom. There has been no public statement, despite two weeks having been elapsed, from WMF to state that ArbCom is for some reason unsuited to reviewing Fram's status as an administrator. There has not even been a clear statement that private off-wiki actions <u>by Fram</u> were considered by WMF as part of their decision to enact sanctions. In the intervening period, enwiki ArbCom has not found that Fram's onwiki actions justify removal of admin permissions. Nor has a community process reached that view and endorsed WMF's actions. It seems to me that we have now been more than patient with WMF, the Board and (for that matter) with ArbCom, to which I self-referred my earlier actions on 13 June 2019. Fram [https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3AFram&type=revision&diff=19167876&oldid=19165604 has asked] two very simple questions. They are questions that as a matter of basic fairness ought to have been answered regardless of whether anyone believes Fram to be guilty or innocent of (as yet unspecified) misconduct. They have not been answered. Those questions, and those raised by members of this community, have been met with obfuscation and delay. In light of the absence of any serious attempt by WMF to engage in discussions with the enwiki community since this incident occurred, I have therefore restored Fram's community-granted admin rights. <strong style="font-variant:small-caps">[[User:WJBscribe|WJBscribe]] [[User talk:WJBscribe|(talk)]]</strong> 23:49, 25 June 2019 (UTC)
:You should resign, and you should do so immediately. You have demonstrated a repeated willingness to violate the Terms of Use, exceed the mandate that the community has granted you as a bureaucrat, and inflame conflict on-wiki based on your own personal opinions. I have absolutely zero confidence in your impartiality as it pertains to anything. ~ [[User:BU Rob13|<b>Rob</b><small><sub>13</sub></small>]]<sup style="margin-left:-1.0ex;">[[User talk:BU Rob13|Talk]]</sup> 00:01, 26 June 2019 (UTC)

**** Would insist they follow the 24 hour wait period for resysop which is not an emergency (Dssysop maybe) and other crats should be consulted in future.[[User:Pharaoh of the Wizards|Pharaoh of the Wizards]] ([[User talk:Pharaoh of the Wizards|talk]]) 02:19, 26 June 2019 (UTC)
