 | This user account is a bot operated by Gigs (talk). It is used to make repetitive automated or semi-automated edits that would be extremely tedious to do manually, in accordance with the bot policy. This bot does not yet have the approval of the community, or approval has been withdrawn or expired, and therefore shouldn't be making edits that appear to be unassisted except in the operator's or its own user and user talk space. Administrators: if this bot is making edits that appear to be unassisted to pages not in the operator's or its own userspace, please block it. |
This is a bot to implement email notification of Inactive administrators per the discussion at Wikipedia talk:Requests for adminship/Inactive admin email.
It will email the contents of: Wikipedia:Requests_for_adminship/Inactive_admin_email to 300 or so inactive accounts with administrator access, asking them to release their sysop bit voluntarily by posting to Wikipedia:Resign or meta:SRP#Removal_of_access, or at least to change their password.
The reasons for this project are:
- To implement the security best practice of removing of elevated privileges that are no longer required
- To help gather statistics to improve the quality of any future community discussions regarding possible involuntary inactivity removal of privileges
- To encourage inactive admins to return to activity
