This covers leave of absence for Battlestar Wiki administrators.

Overview

Since administrators may have real-life emergencies or responsibilities that take them away from contributing to the wiki, a process is in place that makes them exempt from admin-level decisions. This does not mean that they will have their administrator privileges revoked, it merely means that they are excused from admin-level decisions.

An administrator leave of absence may be invoked voluntarily, or automatically after a one-month (30 day) period of inactivity. During a leave of absence, your slot on {{adminlist}} will be marked {{abstain}}. If you have been placed on leave of absence automatically, you may remove this indication upon your return.

Also, this page exists to document who is on leave, so that contributors know what administrators are actively "on duty", without disturbing those who may not be available to assist.
