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.

Quick navigation: Administrator | Interface administrator | Bureaucrat | CheckUser | Oversight | Removal of access | Miscellaneous | Global permissions

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.

I-20@jbowiktionary

This wiki is very small (32 entries). I'd like to get a temporary adminship there to help the wiki. I've begun to work on it. I have invited another user to help me. I-20the highway 00:43, 25 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I see you've just left the message in their discussion page. Let's leave it there for a while before doing anything. --FiliP ██ 00:46, 25 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks :) My previous Lobjan stuff I did was to translate in translatewiki:. I-20the highway 00:55, 25 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comp1089@bawikipedia

Hello. I'm Comp1089 (former 231013-a) from ba.wikipedia.org. My temporary sysopship expires on July 20th, 2010, so I've come here to prolong it. Thanks in advance. Comp1089 15:21, 15 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Done for 6 months until 2011-01-20. LeinaD (t) 14:52, 19 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Peter Alberti@dawikisource

As there currently aren't any active administrators on Danish Wikisource, I'm applying for administrator status to be able do some regular maintenance work and update some mediawiki-pages for the proofread-page extension. I've opened a request locally to allow comments, but it's still to new to have received any. Peter Alberti 13:49, 19 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

That's OK, you should leave the local request open for a week to gauge community consensus. I'm, notwithstanding, pointing out that if you want to do translations of the MediaWiki namespace you should do that on translatewiki:, so that they will be avalaible on Wikimedia-wide projects. Thank you, --dferg ☎ talk 13:53, 19 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
And one more thing... first you will have to try contact with local bureaucrat (using user disscusion page and/or e-mail option) to grant you sysop rights. If bureaucrat didn't respond, we will be able to grant you temporary status. LeinaD (t) 15:35, 19 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Translatewiki is nice but there are some pages that I won't be able to get to through there.
While there is one local bureaucrat, da:s:User:Christian S, he hasn't edited since mid-2007 and there are several requests for crat activity on his talk page dating back to 2008 that he still hasn't reacted to, so I figured I might as well ask here first. But there's certainly no hurry, and I don't mind trying to see if he happens to responds, if you guys prefer that. Peter Alberti 16:58, 19 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I would ask the Stewards to be generous in granting admintools to minor Wikisource-projects which use the Proofread Page-extension. There is a lot of maintenance, which only can be done by an admin, connected with this extension. You often have to do supressredirect-moves as an example... -- Lavallen 18:09, 19 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Done expires 22 October 2010 Laaknor 11:35, 22 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Quentinv57@lbwiktionary

It seems that this little project, which has just 79 pages, should have some help and contributors. I think that three by month, including me and a global interwiki bot, is not sufficient. That's why I'm requesting temporary adminship on that project. Two or three months sounds good. -- Quentinv57 17:19, 19 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Done expires 19 october 2010. Laaknor 17:24, 19 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks -- Quentinv57 18:27, 19 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Les Meloures@lbwiktionary

Already sysop on Wikipedia lb. Tamporary adminship will be fine, we can do some elections in one or two months -- Quentinv57 08:30, 22 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Done expires 22 October 2010 Laaknor 11:38, 22 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Ooswesthoesbes@lbwiktionary

Already sysop on Wiktionary li. His help is really needed to let this project start too. Same concerning temporary adminship -- Quentinv57 08:30, 22 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Russian Wikinews need in bureaucrat. Дмитрий talk+ 08:54, 24 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm, there are only 4 votes. We usually give out bureaucrat flags to bigger communities. I'm not sure about this case... --FiliP ██ 09:28, 25 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
With only 36 active users, bureaucrat flags should likely not be given yet.Jusjih 20:12, 25 July 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]

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>
