Admins that have not made edits in at least a year should be automatically desysopped.
- Proposed language: Admin accounts which have been completely inactive for at least one calendar year (with no edits or administrative actions in that time) will be automatically desysopped. This is not to be considered binding, or a reflection on the user's use of, or rights to, the admin tools; if an inactive admin returns to wikipedia, they may be resysopped by a bureaucrat without further discussion, providing they left wikipedia in good standing and not in controversial circumstances, and that their identity is not in dispute.
The admin will be contacted one month prior to the expiry of the one-year timeframe on their user talk page, and again a few days before the limit. If the account has a valid e-mail address, the user will also be contacted via that medium. The summary in the user rights log will make it clear that the desysopping is purely administrative.
