Wikipedia talk:Administrators: Difference between revisions

*Option 2 is what is currently used, and seems to be working ok. —[[User:Kusma|Kusma]] ([[User talk:Kusma|talk]]) 09:32, 26 November 2022 (UTC)

*'''Option 2''': though option 1 was what the community agreed and what should have been used as the standard, I think the stricter option 2 is still appropriate. Somebody who has not taken an admin action in five years should be re-elected by the community if they are to legitimately act on behalf of them. Though the usual comment is that an old admin should familiarise themselves with what has changed on Wikipedia in the last five years, I would actually say it is more important that ''we'' (the community) familiarise ourselves with what has changed ''with the admin''. Many admin areas are functionally the same as in 2017, but somebody who has not used the mop in 5 years needs to prove that they still have a clear head. — [[User:Bilorv|Bilorv]] ('''[[User talk:Bilorv|<span style="color:purple">talk</span>]]''') 22:54, 27 November 2022 (UTC)
