Pending suspension of administrative permissions due to inactivity

Established policy provides for removal of the administrative permissions of users who have not made any edits or logged actions in the preceding twelve months. Because you have been inactive, your administrative permissions will be removed if you do not return to activity within the next month.

Inactive administrators are encouraged to rejoin the project in earnest rather than to make token edits to avoid loss of administrative permissions. Resources and support for reengaging with the project are available at Wikipedia:WikiProject Editor Retention/administrators. If you do not intend to rejoin the project in the foreseeable future, please consider voluntarily resigning your administrative permissions by making a request at the bureaucrats' noticeboard.

Thank you for your past contributions to the project. — JJMC89 bot 00:06, 1 November 2019 (UTC)

• Never change a phone after enabling TFA! Finding the emergency scratch code proved to be a bigger task than I'd anticipated. cheers. —SpacemanSpiff 05:27, 4 November 2019 (UTC)

  Good to see you back, Spiff. I'll keep that advice in mind :) Vanamonde (Talk) 17:58, 4 November 2019 (UTC)

  Spiffy! You're back! 😃 Bishonen | talk 20:53, 7 November 2019 (UTC).

  Hey, you know what? You're just in time to run for ArbCom! You should too, Vanamonde! There are eleven slots to fill (how did that happen?) and only five candidates so far. 😶 Bishonen | talk 21:01, 7 November 2019 (UTC).

  I agree that Spiff should run. I decided a while ago that I couldn't; I just don't have the time at the moment (more detail by email, if you want it) and now of course I'm on the election commission, so you can't make me. You should run, Bish. As I've suggested before, Zilla at her slimmest would still take up all the remaining seats. Problem solved. Vanamonde (Talk) 22:07, 7 November 2019 (UTC)

  [Delighted.] Slim Zilla! Hehehe! [Sticks the little Vanamonde in her pocket.] Stay! bishzilla _ROARR!! pocket 22:46, 7 November 2019 (UTC).

  With friends like this, who needs enemies? —SpacemanSpiff 00:59, 8 November 2019 (UTC)

Not learning

Rioter 1 has since made a series of edits to Koenraad Elst, Murti and Neo-Vedanta, all of whom were reverted by 3 different editors. A TBan is now in order, I suppose. Page @RegentsPark: in light of the previous thread on his t/p. ∯WBG^converse 14:46, 22 November 2019 (UTC)

I've blocked for one month, a new ARBIPA warning is now in order as the old warning just expired and I don't want any tban to be overturned on a technicality of a few hours. —SpacemanSpiff 16:08, 22 November 2019 (UTC)

Thanks Spiff. I saw their latest edits, and was steeling myself to file an AE request tomorrow. Glad I don't have to. Vanamonde (Talk) 06:19, 23 November 2019 (UTC)

Thank you :-) ∯WBG^converse 07:50, 23 November 2019 (UTC)

Looks like in my absence we've lost a few editors who do cleaning up of caste cruft. I'm struggling to admin articles now, might have to just give up and get involved as an editor in some of them. —SpacemanSpiff 17:23, 23 November 2019 (UTC)
