→Discussion (five year rule): re Thryduulf |

Line 187:
*:That's probably worth discussion as a separate question, with notifications to those affected (former admins who resigned, whose last logged action was ~four or more years ago, and who have edited within the last two years) and all those who have commented above. It's worth noting though that previous changes to the activity policy have implicitly applied retroactively without (as far as I spotted) notifications to those affected ([[Wikipedia talk:Administrators/Archive 23#Clarifying 5 year rule|2022]], [[Wikipedia:Requests for comment/2019 Resysop Criteria (2)|2019]], [[Wikipedia talk:Administrators/Archive 18#RFC: Slight tweak to lengthy inactivity policy|2018]], [[Wikipedia talk:Administrators/Archive 13#Restoration of the tools (proposal)|2012]]).

*::Notifications were sent out after the 2012 change—see [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search=user+talk%3A%22alters+what+you+were+told+at+the+time+of+your+desysopping%22&title=Special:Search&profile=advanced&fulltext=1&ns0=1 here]. I don't think they've been used recently, though. [[User:Extraordinary Writ|Extraordinary Writ]] ([[User talk:Extraordinary Writ|talk]]) 06:01, 11 November 2024 (UTC)
*:::As we mature as a site, we need to be more intentional about the growing body of people affected by changes: If proposed changes are going to be retroactive--which is clearly the community's right--then the affected persons need to be notified and invited to participate or exercise their current privileges, if desired, before any modification is effective. This is a bit of a sore subject for me, as I was disenfranchised from Arbcom elections a few years back by a change in activity calculations I was unaware of until it had become effective.
