Oversight policy/Requests for oversight
From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki
This page centralises the contact details for oversighters across all wikis. Use this list to contact an oversighter on individual projects. Listed are best ways to contact local oversighters, including:
- E-mail address: An address of a list to which local oversighters are subscribed, the best way to contact them all.
- Wikimedia e-mail: Links to Special:EmailUser on individual projects, pointing either to a list (as above), or individual oversighters.
- IRC: If a project has a dedicated channel for summoning oversighters.
