Similarly, nothing new. Wikipedia's expanding, so is the number of desysoppings. We've got better things to worry about, surely. AGK

Well said. And guess what: Next year, there will probably be more than there were this year, and so on. Nothing alarming here, really.

Bad admins of course are a problem, and so are compromised accounts.
Less of

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.
