How many of those were because of bad admins though? Sometimes, an admin

Bad admins of course are a problem, and so are compromised accounts.
Less of
that next year of course, but admins can resign
whenever they wish - it
isn't a problem at all.
Yes, but this is more than we've ever had. I know that Wikipedia has
some admins retire, but we had more than last year. I'm not trying to
alarm everyone, but this is scaring me just a bit. I've seen a few
retirements because of a problem with another editor. THAT is what I'm
saying we need to get our act together about.

Of course there were more than ever before. There are more admins than ever
before. There are more articles than ever before. There were more edits
than ever before. One must have a sense of proportion here. What *
percentage* of admins was desysopped year over year, by reason for
desysopping? That would give us a reasonable comparison point, raw numbers
are meaningless.
