==== Restoration of administrator permissions ====
When administrative permissions are revoked for any reason, they may be regained through the regular avenue (the bureaucrats' noticeboard). However, in cases of resignation in ''uncontroversial'' circumstances, access may be restored upon request and without discussion, unless the resignation occurred over 1 year before the request for restoration.
When administrator permissions are revoked for inactivity or by resignation, they may be regained upon request at the [[Project:Bureaucrats' noticeboard|bureaucrats' noticeboard]], unless access was removed while there were substantial concerns about the user's fitness to be an administrator ("under a cloud").
 
Bureaucrats should use the following criteria in determining whether to restore access:
 
* Confidence that the account has not been compromised.
* Confidence that the user intends to return to active editing.
* Whether it has been 1 year or longer since revocation of access (in these cases, access should not be restored).
 
In all other cases, administrator permissions may only be regained through a [[Project:Requests for permissions|request for permissions]].
