Wikipedia:Administrators open to recall/Admin criteria

This page is part of the overall admin recall process (which is not a formal rule) and supporting material. It is a list of criteria developed by various admins who are members of Category:Wikipedia administrators open to recall.

These are admins who have voluntarily, and of their own volition and with no external pressure, agreed to be subject to recall. They are not bound to this status in any way. Volunteers at any time and for any reason may remove themselves from this category or change their criteria or process.

Only the admin themselves should add their information to this table, as the recall process itself is voluntary. In addition to the criteria and processes developed by individual editors, a sample process is available (and is assumed to be in effect if nothing to to contrary has been specified by the admin.)

Former administrators whose criteria are still available. Kept because some of them are referenced above, and to serve as a source of ideas for new criteria and processes.
