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.

Appears to have stemmed from an editor complaint in Special:Diff/1069247970. — xaosflux ^Talk 14:09, 1 February 2022 (UTC)

Seems a bit strange that this would have just been a talk page comment, rather than an actual complaint. I'm not sure how having the admin bit has any effect on potential copyvios. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 15:10, 1 February 2022 (UTC)

It was more than a talk page comment; Wikipedia:Contributor copyright investigations/BOZ. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 15:15, 1 February 2022 (UTC)

Oh, my mistake. That'll take some sorting out. Ignore me. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 15:25, 1 February 2022 (UTC)

Brookie

With sadness, I note that Marine 69-71 announced last month the passing of Brookie (talk · contribs), a registered editor for 17 years and an admin for all but the first 8 months of that span. Could a bureaucrat please take the necessary administrative actions? Thank you. -- Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]} (she/they) 03:12, 8 February 2022 (UTC)
