DescriptionTime from registration to RfA points.svg
English: Distribution of time periods between user registration and their subsequent successful Request for Adminship on the English Wikipedia. RfA dates collected from en:Wikipedia:Successful_requests_for_adminship. Each successful RfA is represented as a single point. (Due to oddities in old logs and records, a few users in the early years appear to have been sysopped on their first day of editing!) The *median* newly sysopped admin in 2016 registered in 2008. The shortest time from registration to successful RfA since 2012 is 13 months.
