I think it should be reverted. Consensus gauged for such a change would not even suffice to appoint a temporary administrator and you've granted them quasi bureaucrat rights which they've not used since 2013. Unbundling rights from "classical" user groups has been done when there was a need and consensus. I fail to see both here.

I concur we should revert as the situation seems worse in 2016 than in 2013:

• they don't seem to currently have an active community anymore: their village pump is only a collection of WMF notifications for this year
• if in 2013, they were two administrators, only one seems to remain active
• the former administrator account is globally locked, as compromised

I let a message on their village pump, we'll see if there is a community response. If they agree or if there is no reply, we can revert it.

Definitely, It should be reverted.. :D

No reaction from the pt.wikivoyage community after the village pump notification.

I'm tentatively scheduling this for 2016-03-17 16:00 SF, the last SWAT of this week before the code freeze.
