Resignation of Maxim
Over the course of this year, my personal circumstances have changed profoundly and in ways I could not have anticipated at the time of the elections last year. I now painfully lack the time and energy to be a useful arbitrator and I do not expect that to change anytime soon; accordingly, I resign with immediate effect. I apologize that I was unable to complete my term. Maxim (talk) 13:37, 6 October 2024 (UTC)
