  • we already have images for the most abusive sysops. -hipcrime 16:56, 23 October 2013 (EDT)

dubious/confusing entry dump

Naturally this article was a target for Wikipedians, and some of the images were bound to be tinkered with at some point... like this one:

a hell of a lot of these admins aren't even abusive, or quit Wikipedia so long ago that they are not really relevant anymore. i'd like to place some of the non-abusive ones or the ones who have quit here for discussion. trouble is i'm going through it with pneumonia and i can't get to it right now, but some of these people i've never even heard of. -hipcrime 01:53, 22 March 2015 (EDT)

I think all the administrator images should stay. You have admins that "turn in the bit" by asking a bureaucrat to remove their administrative powers, but since those powers can be reclaimed at any time, they're not really quitting. Drmies IIRC did that, threw up his hands in emotion at whatever and turned in his tools, yet three or four months later he recollected them and was back hardly having missed a beat. Then there's the case of an admin that posts a retired message, but similarly: what is that really worth? He or she could be back in a year or two.
Some of these in the gallery have apparently been gone for five years or more. In that case, I'd accept they're probably not coming back. But still, why remove the photos? Back when they were active, they sought power to block others, in many cases they had the ability to see the privacy sensitive information like IP about others. That fact doesn't change with the passage of time. So I think "leave them all up." Negative Memory Retrieval 10:19, 6 May 2015 (EDT)
