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.

I'm in the middle of a major move, and need to give up the bit for security and because of time. I want to keep the advanced tools, PM, NPR, PCR, rollback, as well as IPBE, as I will be roaming. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 20:24, 6 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Interface admin request (Pppery)

Since Category:Wikipedia interface-protected edit requests seems to be chronically backlogged, I guess it's my duty to help out there. I am already an interface admin on MediaWiki.org, and thus already have 2FA enabled, and believe I have sufficient understanding of JavaScript, CSS and Wikimedia wikis' privacy expectations to fulfill the role. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 23:21, 7 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
