Could a steward kindly remove my sysop flag on simplewikt please? As a [[global sysop]] I have all the mop I need there and don't need the extra tools. Also, I'm embarrassingly inactive there and so really not worthy of local admin; barely editor.

Revision as of 00:34, 11 August 2010

Shortcut:
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: 

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

Administrator access

See administrator for information about the position. Requests for removal of access belong in another section. Admins doing cross-wiki work may wish to see IRC/wikimedia-admin for information about joining #wikimedia-admin.

If you are requesting administrator status to translate the wiki interface, this should be done at the translatewiki.net instead (see mw:localisation). You can ask questions in the IRC channel or on the mailing list.

If you are requesting adminship to handle one-time vandalism incidents or clearing a deletion backlog, please see Vandalism reports and Steward requests/Speedy deletions.

Stewards
Currently-active temporary permissions are listed at /Approved temporary; copy granted requests to the appropriate section there, stating the date of removal in the section header and at the bottom of the request. Please invite new sysops to the admin IRC channel.
Archiving
Requests only need remain listed below for a few days, and may afterward be removed as long as they have been copied to the subpage. Users who archive requests on that page, please check if the request was correctly added to the temporary subpage before removing it from this page.

For permanent sysopship please provide a link to the local community approval. For temporary sysopship please state for how long and for which tasks you need it, and link to a local announcement.

Ukabia@ig.wikipedia

Status:    In progress

There is no active community on this wikipedia and my temporary administrator access has expired. I have been fixing the translations of this wikipedia with the privileges that I was given through MediaWiki pages (some of which were deleted). There is no other active administrator on ig wikipedia and it needs one to encourage dedicated editors to join. There are also other issues that need active administrators. Thank you. Ukabia 16:01, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,
Translations should be done on translatewiki.org instead of the mediawiki namespace, perhaps its better to continue your translate work there? Huib talk Abigor 16:03, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I do, (Ukabia@translatewiki) but some of the MediaWiki pages on the ig wikipedia were deleted so I had to restore them so they could be translated. Ukabia 16:10, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

nepaboy@bh.wikipedia

Status:    In progress

Hi, my 3 months temprory access on bhojpuri wikipedia has been expired today. I want adminship again on bhojpuri wikipedia. Nepaboy 09:04, 2 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Is there a local discussion of this, other than your talk page? You may want to try to arrange an election to see if you can get enough support for non-temporary adminship. Kylu 13:12, 2 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

If I do arrange an election to get enough support who will give me vote? there are no any regular user on bhojpuri wikipedia. I would like to show you a list of user who has logged in last 30 days on bhojpuri wikipedia. Please see here. --Nepaboy 12:31, 3 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

We really can't offer "deals" like, "if you get X votes in Y days, you can be an admin". We can, however, point you towards the election guidelines as they currently stand. You are, of course, free to contribute to the opinions presented on the page. Also, we do have a set of global sysops who may assist that project with administrative abilities if you'd like some support maintaining the project while awaiting the outcome of your election (or beyond). Kylu 12:05, 5 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I have got few support for permanent adminship. see here Nepaboy 03:28, 8 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You might want to get a few more. I don't think anyone will make permanent adminship with only one support. Perhaps just an extension of your temporary access is more appropriate? Also, see Minimum requirements to elect permanent Administrators. Kylu 04:14, 8 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I have got 2 support, sir. Nepaboy 06:17, 10 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Beaukarpo@bo.wikipedia

Status:    In progress

Beaukarpo's 3 months of temporary access expired few weeks ago. It appears that he is worth getting permanent adminship. Please see a link to the local community approval for mor details. Thanks. Wisconsus 14:14, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You only created the request on the sixth. Please wait until the 14th at least. If nothing else, this gives your request the opportunity to get more votes. Kylu 15:07, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Ok. Does that mean the approval of this request will be rejected or only postponed? --Wisconsus 18:13, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Postponed at the least, but so far there seems to need to be about five folks to be enough for selecting a non-temporary admin. If you'd like to help assist clarify the debate, the discussion (with the minimal amount of attention it gets) is at Requests for comment/Minimum voting requirements. Keep in mind that at the moment it's fairly difficult to remove an inactive or abusive administrator, which tends to keep the requirements higher. Kylu 18:53, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Longrim@lv.wiktionary

Status:    In progress

Local community is very small, so I do not think there will be more than 2 votes. Longrim is the top contributor and currently the only one active Latvian user in growing Latvian wiktionary. Kind regards. Wisconsus 14:14, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Request page placed today. Please wait at least a week to give others (if any) an opportunity to comment. Thanks. Kylu 15:09, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Mxn@viwiki

Status:    In progress

Vietnamese Wikipedia community has concensus on creating local CheckUser. We have voted for Mxn to be one of 2 CUs (another one is DHN@viwiki). You stewards please contact him directly to ask for his identity. Tân (talk) 07:04, 20 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Mxn must identify himself to the Wikimedia Foundation. DHN must also do the same.--Shanel 08:42, 20 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Faxed. Thanks for waiting. – Minh Nguyễn (talk, contribs) 17:47, 29 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Waiting for office confirmation. — Dferg ☎ 13:18, 30 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, but we do not know how long it takes new CheckUser right? We (viwikipedia community), waited so long ... minhhuy*= 14:39, 29 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Nobody here can do anything until the office posts receipt of the identification. Ionek 17:19, 29 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The fax was received, but was illegible. I emailed Mxn to notify him at that time. The office has not received an alternate method or better fax as of yet. Bastique ☎ call me! 22:19, 3 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Might it be easier if the user scanned his ID and sent it as an email? Kylu 12:11, 5 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry for the delay. I just faxed over a more legible copy. – Minh Nguyễn (talk, contribs) 16:24, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Status:    In progress

Vietnamese Wikipedia community has concensus on creating local CheckUser. We have voted for DHN to be one of 2 CUs (another one is Mxn@viwiki). You stewards please contact him directly to ask for his identity. Tân (talk) 07:04, 20 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

See above.--Shanel 08:42, 20 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Should I wait for the confirmation request or should I send my confirmation letter ASAP? DHN 18:11, 20 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Send your identification ASAP. only after the foundation confirms, this will be decided. --Jyothis 18:24, 20 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Identification sent. DHN 07:38, 22 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I sent an email with my ID info several days ago to secure-info@wikimedia.org but haven't heard anything back. Is that the correct email address I should send it to or is there another one? DHN 04:32, 24 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Hello DHN. Your ID were received and confirmed by Cary, but per CheckUser policy there must be at least 2 checkusers on a wiki or none at all so until Mxn identifies we can't promote you. Once his ID is confirmed, we will promote you both. Thanks, — Dferg ☎ 12:58, 24 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Deineka@ukwiki

Oversight access

To request to have content oversighted, ask in #wikimedia-stewards, or email oversight-l@lists.wikimedia.org for requests regarding English Wikipedia. This is the place to request Oversight access. Note that temporary Oversight access is not permitted and the temporary status is only used by Stewards.

Stewards
Do not grant Oversight access unless the user is identified to the foundation, which will be announced on the Identification noticeboard. When you give someone oversight access, list them on Oversight.

Removal of access

<translate>

  • 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 [[<tvar name="self-discussion">Talk:Steward_requests/Permissions/2011#Self_requests</tvar>|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 [[<tvar name="crat-rem">Bureaucrat#Removing_access</tvar>|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 [[<tvar name="aar">Admin activity review</tvar>|Admin activity review]] applies.
  • See the [[<tvar name="usage">#Using this page</tvar>|instructions above]] for adding new requests. Please post new requests at the bottom of the section.</translate>
