User:GeneralNotability/Recall

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

As promised in my RfA, I am open to recall. My recall criteria (based on K6ka's recall criteria):

  • At least seven editors in good standing (no blocks within the past six months) that have over 500 mainspace edits and have been on Wikipedia for at least one year need to support my resignation. I am not setting a specific timeframe for how close those resignation supports need to be, but my expectation is that the seven supports be a group of some sort (i.e. if someone requests I resign, the discussion fizzles out without getting the necessary support, and then a year later someone else requests I resign, I would consider that to reset the "counter"). The intent here is that this doesn't turn into a "strikes" counter.
  • The matter had been brought up on my talk page prior to the recall request, and I had been given the opportunity to discuss the matter (there may be a misunderstanding one is not aware of).
  • The matter concerns my use of the admin tools (blocks, deletes, protects, etc.) and not a non-admin editing concern.
  • One clause not in K6ka's version, inspired by GirthSummit's excellent response (see Q17): if anyone who nominated me for admin or was otherwise one of the people who convinced me to run (in no particular order, these are bradv, MelanieN, L235, HickoryOughtShirt?4, Mz7, and ToBeFree) says that I have done something so bad that they don't think I should be an admin anymore, I will hand in the tools on the spot.

That's it. WP:NOTBURO. If I desysop under these criteria, I don't expect to run again - I found RfA to be a fairly trying process, and I can't imagine it getting better after I've actually had the tools.
