Hello, I'm here since more than 6 years, did a total of more than 160 000 contribution (included more than 47 000 in the last year). I have already been administrator during two and a half years, and was quite an active administrator as I deleted within this period more than 65 000 images and blocked more than 900 users. Furthermore, while not any more administrator since more than 3 months, I'm still listed as the fifth most active administrator during the past year.

I've asked, myself, that my administrator rights be removed because I wanted to make a break in my admin duties, and was not really able to do this break in keeping the tools. And now the advantage is that the Commons community have once again the possibility to vote. Besides, I think that the administrator mandates should be renewable.

One of my main quality is that I am a heavy worker, and it is for me an implicit duty to try to be active in the spots that I promise to do. This is why I made a proposal to increase the minimum requirements of activity for the administrators. Therefore if you give me the tools you can be sure that I will be active, except for extraordinary events, otherwise I will give backs the tools, as I already done.

I'm not a law specialist, and it will be easy to trap me with copyright questions, however the number of deletion quoted above speak for itself. Be also aware, for the ones who had potential disagreements with me, that 1/I have absolutely no regrets; 2/I will not solve those potential disagreements there, therefore I will likely no comment nor respond to anything relative there; 3/As it is a fact that I was/will try(ing) to be active, then it will be a pity to deprive the team from an active member just for your affinity problems. Best regards, Christian Ferrer ^(talk) 12:52, 8 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

•  Support I was first concerned when I read "I will not respond to anything", we definitely do not need another administrator who "just does thing without any explanation". However, looking at the interaction with users Christian Ferrer appears to be responsive and willing to engage in reasonable discourse. ℺ Gone Postal (〠 ✉ ✍ ⏿) 16:43, 8 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Gone Postal Not to put words in Christian Ferrers mouth but I believe he was trying to say all disagreements he's had have all been resolved and for those that haven't he doesn't want to discuss here (which is fair enough), Christian Ferrer has always been approachable and has always answered anyones queries (as seen by his talkpage). –Davey2010^Talk 17:44, 8 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Exactly. Christian Ferrer ^(talk) 18:00, 8 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

•  Support of course. Maybe we should have a policy to return rights to users who resigned in good standing if they are requested within 6 months (or even 12)? A new RfA seems unnecessary. WJBscribe (talk) 11:29, 9 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • @WJBscribe: We had such a policy, but it was removed after some recent drama caused by this policy. Jcb (talk) 14:38, 9 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • @Jcb: I remember - I was suggesting restoring it, but with a time restriction rather than an indefinite right to request return of rights. WJBscribe (talk) 14:56, 9 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
      • Jcb & WJBscribe - I was going to seriously propose running an RFC on it but seeing this (and everything after) I feel I would be wasting my time and energy, Ofcourse re-handing the mop to ex-admins could be disastrous for various reasons but on the other hand RFAs like this one are a complete waste of the communities time, Realistically we need to find a middle ground but again that may not be easy. –Davey2010^Talk 15:09, 9 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
        • "Waste of community's time" is, when someone gives back the sysop tools for no logical reason and then, after short time, suddenly wants to have it back. When someone is requesting sysop rights (regardless if they used to have it or not) and there are legitimate oppose votes not by sockpuppets but by true users, it's obviously not waste of time. --A.Savin 19:09, 9 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
          • Any admin is well within their rights to have a break from Commons and any admin is well within their rights to hand back their mop temporarily or permanently, There's 28 supports here and 1 oppose which was from you ...., This editor is clearly trusted and no concerns have been raised and so as such they could've been given the mop back by an admin in good standing and no one except you would batter an eyelid over it. –Davey2010^Talk 21:16, 9 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

            • To compare sysop flag with an award and RfA voters with fans is a bit of... immature. --A.Savin 08:12, 10 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
