An inactive [[Special:MyLanguage/Test Wiki:Administrators|administrator]], [[Special:MyLanguage/Test Wiki:Bureaucrats|bureaucrat]], or an [[Test Wiki:Abuse filter administrators|abuse filter administrator]] who has not published an edit, logged an action, or an abuse filter modification within the last three months will be demoted. Users may re-request the rights at any time.

==Grace periods==
{{shortcut|TW:IP|TW:INACTIVE}}


Grace periods were an optional way to enforce this policy. This involved setting an inactive user's rights to expire after two weeks, rather than removing them immediately; this allows the inactive user to receive a notification, prompting them to return to activity and revert the changes made to their rights. They have now been replaced by an automated process.
Any [[Special:MyLanguage/Test Wiki:Administrators|administrators]], [[Special:MyLanguage/Test Wiki:Bureaucrats|bureaucrats]], or [[Special:MyLanguage/Test Wiki:Suppressors|non-steward suppressors]] that have no edits or logged actions within the last three months will be demoted for inactivity.
[[Test Wiki:Abuse filter administrators|Abuse filter administrators]] who have not edited an abuse filter in the last 3 months will also be demoted.
They may re-request the rights at any time. Stewards will be demoted after 6 months of inactivity. System administrators after a year of inactivity.
These rights may be restored after 1 hour of them being removed; otherwise, a reconfirmation vote will be held.
