MyWiki:List of administrators

"WP:LA" redirects here. For WikiProject California Los Angeles task force, see Wikipedia:WikiProject California/Los Angeles task force.

A list of all users who are currently administrators (sometimes referred to as "sysops") on the English Wikipedia can be found here. In total, there are currently 832 administrator accounts on the English Wikipedia, 449 of which are active (as of 2025-08-19). Administrator accounts that have made at least 30 edits within the last two months are considered active. Administrators who have been completely inactive for longer than one year are routinely de-sysopped, though they can have the administrator rights reinstated following a request that's made within two years of being de-sysopped. Former administrators that have been inactive for a lengthy period of time will be required to successfully complete a new request for adminship in order to be reinstated. The count of active administrators provided in this paragraph are automatically updated on a daily basis by Rick Bot.

New administrators are selected either through requests for adminship or in periodic administrator elections. To check if the lists below are up to date, check the user rights log for any new admins who have not been added. New selections are recorded at Wikipedia:Successful adminship candidacies, and removals of adminship are recorded at Wikipedia:Former administrators.

The Wikipedia:Requests for administrator attention page can be used to contact an administrator about:

• page deletions or undeletions
• page protection or unprotection
• reporting vandalism, harassment, or disruption
• any other administrator activities or tasks

If you wish to discuss something with an administrator directly, you can do so by visit one or several of the following administrator user pages below. Administrators who have enabled contact through email in their preferences can be contacted by using the "email this user" link that's located on the left side of their user or user talk page if you have signed in with an email address of your own. Many administrators can also be contacted in real time through IRC. See Wikipedia:IRC channels for more information. A list of administrators and the IRC nickname they use can be found here.
