Barely active editor. But both builds and patrolls. Surprisingly willing to use talk and project space and generally police given their limited engagement, but by no means their primary reason for still editing.
Odd Administrator. Actually has a handful of deletions in 2023, after having not done one since 2015. Might even be finding Adminy stuff to do unrelated to his editing. But without it being their reason for editing.
Seems actually rather desperate to be of use as an Admin....
Help me help you
I am a Wikipedia administrator, which means that I have a mop and bucket with which to help keep Wikipedia sparkling clean. If I can help you out with anything, please let me know on my talk page.
Their talk page is devoid of any such requests in recent years. Probably because he's clearly not engaged enough to be of use to anyone who knows enough about Wikipedia to know when you need the help of an Administrator.
And how would they even find him?
Windows and video games with a smattering of US politics.
Hacker, engineer, philosopher, secular humanist, small-l libertarian, occasional writer, alumnus of Princeton University and the Princeton Triangle Club and Quadrangle Club, formerly with Netscape Communications Corporation and Apple Computer, now with The Walt Disney Company. Currently living in Celebration, Florida right next to Walt Disney World Resort.
Another classic burst and bumble profile, disengaged by 2011, but quite consistently engaged at 30-60 edits per year. Can be an Administrator for as long as he wants.
But yet again, it has to be asked, by what right do they consider themself an Administrator?
They would not pass today. Simply because of how little recent activity there is. Being an uncontroversial nobody is no longer enough.
Being a very polite but persistent PoV pusher might, however....if the view is the right one of course.

To some people it's
very important that Wikipedia make observations like how the so called "Don't Say Gay" act doesn't say gay. It doesn't matter a damn to them if sources considered that not worth noting. It doesn't matter a damn if the claim is now in Wikipedia solely on the strength of Brian saying it's not in there. Because he read it.
And you can all trust Brian. He's a nice guy. A Wikipedia Administrator!
And it's not like he has an agenda here.
A startling reminder that one of the main reasons to require more activity than this, is simply because it helps Administrators understand when they are BEING MORONS whose knowledge of policy is incredibly out of date, and thus are a potential embarrassment to Wikipedia as it faces increasingly loud charges of institutional bias, if only someone knew they existed.
