To maintain Wiki Curator status, Wiki Curators are expected to maintain a reasonable level of activity by taking part in [[UniWiki:Projects]], completing tasks on the [[UniWiki:To-Do List]] or doing other UniWiki related activities. It is, unfortunately, difficult to place an exact definition of what a "reasonable level of activity" entails. Should activity levels for a particular Wiki Curator drop to a rate that the [[Wiki Department|Wiki Manager]] does not consider sufficient, the Wiki Manager will reach out to that individual to discuss the situation and provide time for communication, improvement and understanding, prior to acting to retire their role.

It is customary for the Wiki Manager to ask the Wiki Curator for a final wish before retiring their role.
