Inactivity as Global Sysop
Hello Pmlineditor, it appears that your last logged action as a global sysop was on the 8th of May. The Global sysop policy provides automatic loss of global sysop tools after 6 months of inactivity, with warning beforehand so one can ask that they not be removed. I apologize for the delay in this notification (as your gs would automatically expire in a few days) and will of course delay the removal for a while so you have a chance to respond and let us know if you wish to retain gs access.
