Notes
  1. ^ Figures don't include bots (22) or renames/secondary accounts where the user was still an administrator afterwards (14). Many short-lived temporary desysops and extremely rapid desysopping/resysopping cycles (in the order of seconds/minutes) that do not involve controversial circumstances or account compromises, such as this brief test and this mistaken desysop, are not included either.
  2. ^ For clarity, restorations (resysoppings) are shown as aggregate yearly figures based on the listing at Wikipedia:List of resysopped users, and "transfers of account", re-sysoppings through RFA, and most cases where adminship was removed and re-added within a calendar year (especially before 2015) are not included.
  3. ^ The extremely large number of desysoppings in January 2023 is due to the beginning of the new criterion for desysopping of inactive administrators.
  4. ^ The inactive admins for November 2022 were desysopped on 31 October of that year.
  5. ^ The large number of desysoppings in June 2019 is due to the community response to the Wikimedia Foundation's ban of Fram.
  6. ^ The extremely large number of desysoppings in July 2011 is due to the beginning of regular desysopping for inactivity.
