While unfortunate, it should come to no ones surprise that Halopedia has an overabundance of inactive '''[[Halopedia:Administrators|Administrators and Bureaucrats]]''' in our ranks. Through consultation with the Administration, they have given me the go ahead to begin removal of user rights for these members from their esteemed positions to simple rollback users. These users in question have given their [fingers and time] hearts and souls to this wiki, and in my opinion, and through various reasons such as school, work, etc., they have not been allowed to give the time they once did into Halopedia as elected officials. The users in question are listed below and are designated if they currently have Bureaucrat status by a '''‡''' next to their information:

Though removing Administrative and Bureaucratic rights for retired staff members will not be a problem, letting go of the "active" staff will bring down the number of the staff from 10 Admins (and 5 Bureaucrats) to 6 Admins (and 2 Bureaucrats). In the coming weeks, I will begin a series of [[Halopedia:Requests for Adminship|Requests for Adminship]] for quite a few veteran users and voting for the IRC Channel Contact (with the possible departing of Manticore); in addition, the Administration has decided that the two most senior Administrators [[User:Subtank|Subtank]] and [[User:Devout Atheist|Devout Atheist]] will be given Bureaucratic status once this current vote is done.

Voting for the removal of inactive staff members will end on Saturday, April 10th. Thank you, and have a great day!
