Open, Needs TriagePublic

Description

With T340380: Create wikija-g mailing list, Our User Group created wikija-g@lists.wikimedia.org for email newsletters: https://lists.wikimedia.org/postorius/lists/wikija-g.lists.wikimedia.org/
All members of our user group suddenly had their admins removed in March.
I send an email to owners that say return us to admins about two weeks ago, but there is no reply.

All members of our user group suddenly had their admins removed in March.

Hi, why? Any governance issues or disputes?

@Ladsgroup
I do not know it. There likely be no governance issues.

I don't think we want to interfere without any information why "all members of our user group suddenly had their admins removed"... should probably check who are the admins of the list.

@Aklapper @Ladsgroup
Are you able to check who are the admin?

We can. But we are not allowed to disclose them. Did you send the email to wikija-g-owner@lists.wikimedia.org?

@Ladsgroup
I sent an email to wikija-g-owner@lists.wikimedia.org on 4/28 asking them to contact me.

Would it be helpful if you contact the original admins or we reset to the original admins from T340380?

@Dzahn What does it mean to reset to the original administrator from T340380?

It would mean that they are admins again just like when the list was initially created.

I am saying that because it would be uncontroversial and the normal procedure would be to talk to existing admins to ask them to add more/other admins.

@Dzahn Can you reset to the original administrator? Thank you.

I sent an email to the current admins and asked them to clarify.
