This is a reminder that established policy provides for removal of the administrative permissions of users who have made fewer than 100 edits over a 60-month period. You are receiving this annual reminder since you have averaged less than 50 edits per year over the last 5 years.

Inactive administrators are encouraged to reengage with 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 be engaged with 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 00:33, 1 January 2023 (UTC)

Hi JamesR, these here seem to be incorrect/broken: [1] [2] [3]

The page-specific rangeblock at [4] incorrectly affects reports about non-blocked IP addresses from the range. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 17:19, 5 January 2023 (UTC)
