Audacity

A user with 19,831 edits. Account created on 27 October 2005

Nominated by Snowolf.

Final: (36/0/3); ended 04:20, 21 May 2007

Barely active editor.

Inactive Administrator, one page move related deletion/protection in June 2023 is only logged action in years.

Three huge spikes of activity in 2006/7 & 2018, with less than 400/yr in the interval.

Less than 100/yr since 2018, flirting with INACTIVE if they don't get their act in gear.

Classic Hippie?

Stay off drugs kids.

Ausir

A user with 9,682 edits. Account created on 9 February 2004.

Self nominated.

final (27/0/2) ending 19:35 14 May 2005

Polish Wikipedian

Inactive Administrator. One block in August 2013 only logged action in years.

Barely active editor, last 500 edits to Oct 2019.

Massive first year adrenaline hit, then quick tail off, then a dead cat bounce, 2015 to ongoing? enough for there to be no danger of INACTIVITY for a few years yet.
I work as a freelance translator. I became a Wikipedian in February 2004. I'm a sysop here, but mostly inactive nowadays. My main areas of contribution have been science fiction, fantasy, computer games, Poland, and Polish science fiction, but I've also contributed to other articles

Awilley

A user with 14,048 edits. Account created on 11 July 2006.

Nominated by alanyst

Final (95/8/3); Closed as successful by –xenotalk at 12:57, 31 July 2013

How can he be so ever present as an Admin about town with such a small edit count?

More of a commenter than a do-er, but protecting Hunter Biden as their only logged action in years raises massive red flags.

Minimal editing presumably in parallel with his chosen areas of commenting. Maybe other watchlist edits.

Active I guess. Latterly only in small bursts.

Mormonism.

Cute user page.

A user with 44,398 edits. Account created on 26 July 2001.

One of the first.

Before RfAs were even a thing.....?

Very active editor, adder/fixer, no interest in project space or patrolling. Barely even used talk pages. 87% main space edits.

Teacher and free culture fanatic.

Inactive Administrator.

Burst and tail but strong lingering engagement. No danger of INACTIVITY.

Day 5 done!

Most inactive bunch yet? Some real throwbacks to a simpler age.

One last A......

AzaToft

Edit filter manager.

A user with 23,163 edits. Account created on 3 November 2004

Nominated by Nishkid64 and Doug Bell.

Final (143/4/3); Ended Wed, 21 Mar 2007

FOURTH ATTEMPT

Barely active editor. Last 500 edits to 2013!

Somehow an active Administrator. Extremely prolific revdeller.

The ultimate clandestine Admin?

Brief 3 year burst, now bumping along in the low tens of edits per year since 2014. Still no danger of INACTIVITY

So far so good. I'd suggest adding their personal interests from their "Top edits" page.

(If possible. Apparently XTools recently implemented an option where a wiki-asshole can disable their XTools pages for anyone not logged in. Bbb23 is using it--predictably.)

B

Formerly BigDT, usurped "B"

A user with 63,924 edits. Account created on 22 April 2006.

Nominated by Mangojuice (as BigDT)

Final (82/22/6); Ended Fri, 12 Jan 2007

Second attempt at RfA, only user ever to decline a nomination?

Barely active editor, last 500 edits takes you to Jan 2019.

Handful of random logged Admin actions per year.

Random patroller / project space

Virginia Tech, non-free images
I'm putting stuff here that is useful to me and probably nobody else. It isn't a place you can come to find out about me, my hobbies, or my userboxen.
Pyscho!

Choppy, streaky but declining interest prior to current wilderness period (from 2019), barely 100 edits per year

Surprisingly opinionated about the project in general and Adminship in particular, given they aren't exactly open about themselves or very active anymore. Ironically quite interested in the INACTIVITY rules.
