Temporary administrators

Following a request, I have made BjarteSorensen, Datrio, and Aphaia temporary admins on the English Wikipedia for the purpose of editing the protected elections page for the duration of the election. This adminship should be used only for editing that page. Angela 13:01, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)

List admin

Administrators are marked with "(sysop)" in the list of user accounts.

For those curious, some incorrect attempts to count sysop users also miscount Rambot (and other bots), which is not a sysop but a specially marked bot account. Simple way to avoid this - check for a substring of sysop, not any non-empty string, in privs.

Sysop activity status last checked on July 4, 2005.
