Please help me to get rid of the so called Admin status (German WP). Who is able to tweak the database system accordingly?

There's still a Vote running at http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_Diskussion:Administratoren#Bezeichnun... an as it seems the majority wants to keep the current names. Wait until a decision is settled.

Anyways changing the naming ain't no database thing but translation issue.

Changing 532 articles (all namespaces) containing the word "Administrator", "Admin" or "Sysop" should be done by hand.

Thomas, you misunderstood: Karl want's to get rid of ''his'' admin status, so his user record needs to be changed in the database.

No, but if, then he wasn't correct enough.

Karl: Please help me to get rid of the so called Admin status

your interpretation would be: Please help me to get rid of MY Admin status

ciao, tom

Yes, my mail was ambiguous. Uli got it right :)
