:Please remind people to not overthink it... they are just check boxes on some site on the internet. I don't think that there should be any bureaucratic reaction to this; it is common practice to allow these requests to carry on for a little longer than necessary to get the requisite support. It should also be noted that the minimum vote requirement does not remove the % support requirement either; there still must be clear consensus to appoint users to CU/OS roles. If anything, have a discussion on what to do next time now that you know the policy :) [[User:Ajraddatz|Ajraddatz]]<small> ([[User Talk:Ajraddatz|talk]])</small> 05:44, 7 April 2015 (UTC)

SRP

This page is for requests to have stewards grant or revoke administrator, bureaucrat, checkuser, and oversight rights on Wikimedia projects which do not have a local permissions procedure.

Old sections are archived. The list of archives is below.

  • Requests for bot flags are handled at SRB, and requests for global permissions are handled at SRGP.
  • If you are requesting adminship or bureaucratship, and your wiki has a local bureaucrat, submit your request to that user or to the relevant local request page (index).
  • For urgent requests, such as to combat large-scale vandalism on a small wiki, contact a steward in the #wikimedia-stewardsconnect IRC channel. In emergencies, type !steward in the channel to get the attention of stewards. Otherwise, you can type @steward for non-urgent help.

Other than requests to remove your own access or emergencies, please only make requests here after gaining the on-wiki approval of your local community.

Cross-wiki requests
Meta-Wiki requests

Using this page

1. Place the following code at the bottom of the appropriate section below:

==== Username@xxproject ====
{{sr-request
 |status    = <!-- don't change this line -->
 |domain    = <!-- such as en.wikibooks -->
 |user name = 
 |discussion= 
}}
(your remarks) ~~~~

2. Fill in the values:

  • domain: the wiki's URL domain (like "ex.wikipedia" or "meta.wikimedia").
  • user name: the name of the user whose rights are to be changed (like "Exampleuser"). In case you're requesting access for multiple bots, leave this field blank and give a list of these bots in your remarks
  • discussion: a link to the local vote or discussion about the rights change (for example, "[[ex:Wikipedia:Requests_for_adminship#ExampleUser]]"). This should normally be for at least one week, but no more than three weeks (if so, you'll need to restart the process).

3. If anything is missing from your request, a steward will request more information.

Confirmation of signing confidentiality agreement

Certain permissions (notably CheckUser and Oversight) additionally require users to sign a confidentiality agreement. Users requesting these permissions must make a request below, and must also sign the confidentiality agreement with the Wikimedia Foundation. The request is placed on hold temporarily, until the receipt has been formally confirmed by the Office.

Requests

COPY THE FOLLOWING CODE to the bottom of the appropriate section below:

==== Username@xxproject ====
{{sr-request
 |status    = <!--don't change this line-->
 |domain    =
 |user name =
 |discussion= 
}}

Administrator access

See Administrator for information about this user group.

  • MediaWiki interface translations are done at translatewiki.net. Please do not request administrator access solely for that purpose; your request will be declined.

  • Stewards: Please use {{Systmp}} for approved temporary requests.

Requests for removal of access should be posted at the section below.

Please start a new discussion about requesting the permission on the local village pump, administrators' noticeboard or a designated page for requesting permissions each time you request or renew adminship.

  • Discussions should be open for seven days. Please request adminship here seven days after discussions started. This page is not the place for any discussions or votes. (For wikis with few active users, it is OK to have no comments.)
  • If you only want adminship for specific tasks, please state for how long and for which tasks you need it. Otherwise stewards will decide whether to assign permanent adminship and the duration of adminship. See Steward requests/Permissions/Minimum voting requirements.

Obaid Raza@ur.wikiquote

Hello! I believe my temporary adminship on ur.wikiquote will be over in one-next month. I request it be extended for at least six months. Thank you very much. --Obaid Raza (talk) 03:58, 31 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion (or voting) should be started first on urwikiquote, I can't find it. The diff which you gave is for 2014 adminship. Regards, --Stryn (talk) 18:51, 31 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
 On hold until 2015-04-07.--Jusjih (talk) 01:31, 2 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The voting has just started at q:ur:وکی اقتباسات:منتظمین/رائے شماری/ 2Obaid Raza.  On hold until 2015-04-12. --Stryn (talk) 08:19, 6 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Nepaboy@bh.wikipedia

I, being a temporary admin on bhojpuri wikipedia, nominate him for Adminship! He has been already a temporary admin in the past, and now he is active and deserves to be a parmanent admin because he is working great and his contributions will enhance bh.wiki! Thus, I nominated him on local forum. After passing 5 days I am requesting here! Kindly grant him Adminship for at least six months! or If possible according to your policies, a permanent one! Thanks! --सत्यम् मिश्र (talk) 19:09, 5 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The community is too small for permanent admins. Though I can make him an admin for 1 year. Ruslik (talk) 19:31, 5 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
But the community is on inrcease these days!I will admire whatever you do, but still I insist to make him a parmanent one! Thanks!--सत्यम् मिश्र (talk) 20:10, 5 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I am sorry, but that is not possible. It is a very easy process to retain adminship after one year. MBisanz talk 21:59, 5 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
OK, then! Do what you believe to be right! Thanks again!--सत्यम् मिश्र (talk) 22:21, 5 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Done Granted for 1 year to expire on 2016-04-05. To prolong your (interface) adminship, please start another election a few days before your temporary access expires, and after a week post your request again to this page. Thanks. MBisanz talk 03:52, 6 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Bureaucrat access

See Bureaucrat for information about this user group.
  • In principle, requests for temporary bureaucrat access are not granted.
  • A small project does not need bureaucrats. Currently whether a promotion is valid or not is decided by stewards. See here for a guideline.

Requests for removal of access should be posted at the section below.

CheckUser access

See CheckUser policy for information about this user group and the policy governing the use of this tool.
  • To request CheckUser information, see Steward requests/Checkuser. This is the place to request CheckUser access.
  • One-time CheckUser access is not permitted and temporary access is only used by Stewards or when the mandate of the CUs has an expiry date specified in local policies.

Oversight access

See Oversight policy for information about this user group and the policy governing the use of this tool.
  • To request to have content oversighted, ask for a steward in #wikimedia-stewardsconnect and contact a steward privately. This section is for requesting access to the Oversight tool.
  • For contact details about oversighters across the wikis, refer to this page.
  • Note that temporary Oversight access is not permitted and temporary status is only used by Stewards .

  • When a new user is assigned to this group, please add them to this list.

Jimmy Xu@zhwiki

A sufficient nunmber of OS have been elected by zhwiki and all of which are identified to WMF. The candidates who meet the requirement should be assigned to oversight access, thank you.--Kegns 03:34, 5 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This request does not meet the minimum vote requirement as outlined in the global policy. However, there is one comment that clearly indicates support (even is marked by a support template), so if that comment is clarified then this request can be granted. Ajraddatz (talk) 06:25, 5 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Ping @Bencmq:. But this user is not very active currently.--GZWDer (talk) 11:47, 5 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
25 support now.--GY Fan 02:17, 6 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Done. -- Mentifisto 07:50, 6 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

范@zhwiki

This request does not meet the minimum vote requirement. Please leave it open for a while longer, as necessary to gain 25 supporting votes. Ajraddatz (talk) 06:25, 5 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The vote is re-open now.--J.Wong 14:00, 5 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Twenty-five support votes now.--CAS222222221 (talk) 12:55, 6 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Done. Trijnsteltalk 14:12, 6 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Trijnstel and Mentifisto: In the very beginning we're not aware of the global rule: 25 support at least, and just set the requirement as local RFA. After Ajraddatz's remind, their polls re-opened locally, but there's no further discussion how much time the extended period lasts, now they're assigned OS as soon as they get 25 support, just like golden_goal, someone has questioned this result now.--Kegns 05:38, 7 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Please remind people to not overthink it... they are just check boxes on some site on the internet. I don't think that there should be any bureaucratic reaction to this; it is common practice to allow these requests to carry on for a little longer than necessary to get the requisite support. It should also be noted that the minimum vote requirement does not remove the % support requirement either; there still must be clear consensus to appoint users to CU/OS roles. If anything, have a discussion on what to do next time now that you know the policy :) Ajraddatz (talk) 05:44, 7 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Wong128hk@zhwiki

The poll has ended with the result of 25/1/0. Thank you.--J.Wong 03:07, 6 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Done. -- Mentifisto 07:50, 6 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Removal of access

  • If you're requesting the removal of your own permissions, make sure you're logged in to your account. If you have multiple flags, specify which you want removed. Stewards may delay your request a short time to ensure you have time to rethink your request (see previous discussion on 24 hour delays); the rights will not be restored by stewards once they are removed.
  • To request the removal of another user's permissions, you must gain consensus on the local wiki first. When there is community consensus that the user's access should be removed, provide a link to the discussion, with a brief explanation of the reason for the request, and summarize the results of discussion. However, as bureaucrats of some wikis may remove users from the administrator or bureaucrat group, please see also a separate list of these specific wikis.
  • To request the removal of another user's permissions for inactivity, link to your local inactivity policy. If your site does not have inactivity policy, the global policy Admin activity review applies.
  • See the instructions above for adding new requests. Please post new requests at the bottom of the section.

Tia solzago@it.wikipedia

Tia solzago has been already informed and thanked for his work. Thanks. --Euphydryas (msg) 09:51, 6 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Done. --Stryn (talk) 10:12, 6 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

sir kiss@he.wikipedia

Please remove my sysop status. --Sir kiss (talk) 11:45, 6 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

 On hold for one day per common practice. --Stryn (talk) 12:13, 6 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Done, thanks for your work. Ajraddatz (talk) 03:53, 7 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Miscellaneous requests

Requests for permissions that don't fit in other sections belong here. Importer rights can be granted on most wikis by stewards only. Please gain local community consensus before posting a new section here.

Note that the following types of permissions requests belong on separate pages:

  • SRB — Local or global bot status
  • SRGP — Global permissions
