These are links to candidacies for adminship that were not successful. They are in reverse chronological order. Candidates with more than one unsuccessful RfA are listed at each date they had an unsuccessful RfA. The dates listed after an entry indicate the other RfAs of the candidate, a date in bold and followed by a P indicates an RfA that resulted in a successful promotion to admin.

Comments on the descriptions listed:

  • fail means the candidate received fewer support than oppose votes
  • closed per WP:SNOW or WP:NOTNOW means that an administrator or editor withdrew the nomination on behalf of the candidate per the snowball clause or the WP:NOTNOW essay
  • consensus not reached or unsuccessful means the candidate received at least as many support as oppose votes, but support was deemed by bureaucrats to be insufficient
  • withdrawn by bureaucrat usually means that a bureaucrat judged that the nomination could not succeed at the time of withdrawal
  • withdrawn by candidate and all other reasons. No inference should be drawn from this wording. If you want to know exactly why the nominee was not promoted, follow the nominee's RfA link.
