If you are an admin, but no longer wish for the responsibilities of adminship, it is always possible to "retire" from active adminship voluntarily by transferring yourself from the [[Tardis:Administrators#Frequently active admins|"Frequently active admins"]] section of [[Tardis:Administrators]] to the [[Tardis:Administrators#Administrators emeriti|list of "administrators ''emeriti''"]]. You will retain your local rights, but will no longer be expected to take an active part in the community, such as closing discussions or answering blocking appeals. If you take this route, '''be sure to also add a note to your user page''' informing users that they should not expect quick replies to talk page messages from you, and pointing them in the direction of active admins. If you want something more extreme, you can also relinquish your user rights completely and ask a bureaucrat to strip them from your account. | If you are an admin, but no longer wish for the responsibilities of adminship, it is always possible to "retire" from active adminship voluntarily by transferring yourself from the [[Tardis:Administrators#Frequently active admins|"Frequently active admins"]] section of [[Tardis:Administrators]] to the [[Tardis:Administrators#Administrators emeriti|list of "administrators ''emeriti''"]].

Fandom's global policy additionally notes that "violations of the Fandom-wide ''[https://community.fandom.com/wiki/Help:Wiki_Rules_and_Blocking_Policy Wiki Rules and Blocking Policy]'' may be met with loss of local user rights and, in extreme cases, additional disciplinary action, as deemed necessary by Fandom staff". Whether you are a simple editor or a fellow admin, if you believe a Tardis admin's actions fall afoul of this one situation under which it is possible for an admin to involuntarily lose adminship, '''talk to the admin in question''' to warn them or get an explanation from them. Admins should take such accusations seriously, and not be afraid to change their behaviour if they've been acting wrongly. '''Complaints should only be sent to Fandom Staff against local admins if all for peaceful, local discussion have been attempted and failed'''. | Fandom's global policy additionally notes that "violations of |the Fandom-wide ''[https://community.fandom.com/wiki/Help:Wiki_Rules_and_Blocking_Policy Wiki Rules and Blocking Policy]''] may be met with loss of local user rights and, in extreme cases, additional disciplinary action, as deemed necessary by Fandom staff".
