• curprev 11:3211:32, 19 April 2023‎ ‎ 43,899 bytes +27‎ →‎Restoration of adminship: Fix the change recently made. Without this it would have been a major change, removing the resignation under a cloud exception.
• curprev 10:2210:22, 19 April 2023‎ ‎ 43,872 bytes −5‎ →‎Restoration of adminship: I believe this to be an uncontroversial fix of an odd quirk in the text. It is at least theoretically possible to lose adminship under a cloud, other than by resignation. (For example an WP:INACTIVITY removal during an 18 month block.) It would be a very weird loophole for the cloud clause not to apply in some other unanticipated case where adminship was removed while under a cloud.
