This page is for requests to have stewards grant or revoke administrator, bureaucrat, checkuser, and oversight rights on Wikimedia wikis which do not have a local permissions procedure. Please check the sidebar to the right to see whether your request belongs better elsewhere. Specifically, bot requests, requests for CheckUser information and global rights requests belong on their respective pages.

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).

Interface translations are done at Betawiki. Please do not request administrator access for that purpose; your request will be declined.

For urgent requests, such as to combat large-scale vandalism on a small wiki, contact a steward in the #wikimedia-stewards IRC channel (web client). In emergencies only, type !steward in the channel to inform stewards that you need help. Otherwise, you can use @steward to gain attention if the channel is quiet.

Please only make requests here after gaining the on-wiki approval of your local community. Please note that the "temporary access" section was removed due to redundancy. Please add your request for temporary sysopship to the administrator section.

[edit] Using this page

  1. Place the following code at the bottom of the appropriate section below: 
    ====user name@xxproject====
{{sr-request
 |status    = <!--don't change this line-->
 |domain    =
 |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"). Leave it blank and list them yourself if you're requesting access for multiple bots.
    • 'discussion': a link to the local vote or discussion about the rights change (for example, "[[ex:Wikipedia:Requests_for_adminship#ExampleUser]]").
  3. If anything is missing from your request, a steward will request more information.

[edit] Confirmation of identity

Certain permissions (notably CheckUser and Oversight) additionally require users to confirm their identity. Users requesting these permissions must make a request below, and must also submit the relevant identification to the Foundation. The request is placed on hold temporarily, until the receipt has been formally confirmed by the office.

Instructions for how you can confirm your identity can be found at: Steward handbook/email templates.

For stewards: Identification noticeboard.

[edit] 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= 
}}

[edit] 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 BetaWiki project 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.


[edit] 小躍@hak.wikipedia

Status:    In progress.

I want to make Wikipedia's contributions in the Hakka wiki. Don’t encounter any destruction,so I work as time the Administrator, Can the management edition, the protection, delete the page and restore the page, and manage all users.--林躍錩 11:15, 26 October 2009 (UTC)

I think he is asking for extension to his sysop status as his temporary permission expires on 24 Nov 2009—Bencmq 11:47, 31 October 2009 (UTC)
Can you please make an annoucement on hakwiki about this, so if users don't want you to continue we will know? Otherwise, I'll prolong this closer to the expiry date.  — Mike.lifeguard | @en.wb 18:28, 6 November 2009 (UTC)


[edit] Amdf@mhr.wikipedia

Status:    In progress.

My sysop access will expire 15-11-2009, please prolong it. амдф 15:36, 2 November 2009 (UTC)

Please make a local announcement so if others object they can say so. - Andre Engels 23:37, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
Done. амдф 19:50, 7 November 2009 (UTC)
I support. Azimbaj 11:51, 9 November 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Bureaucrat access

See bureaucrat for information about the position. In principle, requests for temporary bureaucrat access are not granted.


[edit] CheckUser access

To request CheckUser information, see Meta:Requests for CheckUser information. This is the place to request CheckUser access. Note that temporary CheckUser access is not permitted and the temporary status is only used by Stewards.

Stewards
When someone asks for CheckUser status, please check the current policy before giving the status. There is an email template to request identification from the new CU. Do not grant CU access unless the user is identified to the Foundation. Breaching these rules may be cause for removing your steward access. When you give someone CheckUser, please list them on CheckUser, ask them to subscribe to checkuser-l, email checkuser-l-owner-at-lists.wikimedia.org so the listadmins know the person is allowed on the mailing list, and make sure they contact an op for access to #wikimedia-checkuser.

[edit] IvanLanin@id.wikipedia

Status:    Done

I'm replacing the previous retired CheckUser. Above is the voting page. I've sent my proof of identity via email to the Foundation. Thank you. ivanlanin ♫ 11:42, 10 November 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Checkusers@ptwikipedia

Status:    In progress.

On wiki.pt, Daimore and I were elected for a one-year term.

I'm identified (since February 2009: I'm already a local checkuser and was reelected now), but Daimore has not done so yet. So, once there are two identified users for the position, please, grant us the checkuser status. Thanks. Ruy Pugliesi◥ 14:45, 11 November 2009 (UTC)

Waiting Daimore's identification. Alex Pereira falaê 18:12, 11 November 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Oversight access

To request to have content oversighted
Ask in #wikimedia-stewards, or email oversight-l-at-lists.wikimedia.org for requests regarding English Wikipedia.
Note that this section 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.

[edit] Removal of access

If you're requesting the removal of your own status, make sure you're logged in to a global account. Please remember - should you have more than one flag - to state clearly which you wish to remove and which to retain.

To request the removal of another user's status, you must gain consensus on the local wiki first. All discussion must take place on your local wiki. When there is community consensus that the user's access should be removed, a trusted person from that wiki should provide a link here to the discussion, a brief explanation of the reason for the request, and summarize the results of discussion. In either case, copy and paste the following text into the correct section (see instructions above).

==== username@xxproject ====
{{sr-request
 |status    = <!--don't change this line-->
 |domain    = 
 |user name =  
 |discussion= <!-- local confirmation link / local policy link -->
}}

[edit] Liesel@dewiki

Status:    Done
Yes check.svg Done --Mardetanha talk 12:55, 10 November 2009 (UTC)


[edit] Lechatjaune@ptwikipedia

Status:    Done

Please remove my bureaucrat access due to the end of my term. Lechatjaune 00:19, 11 November 2009 (UTC)

I'm not sure I find a justification for removing the rights of the other two on that page you linked. I mean I can do that in your own case as you requested it, but I'm not sure about the other two. Can you give a link to the policy, or to any discussion particularly about you three people? --თოგო (D) 00:32, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
On wiki.pt, bureaucrats and checkusers are elected for a one-year term. If a user doesn't run for a reelection or if he does but he is not relected, he must have his flag removed. Please see pt:Wikipedia:Pedidos de burocrata ("O mandato de um burocrata está limitado a doze meses") and pt:Wikipedia:CheckUser#Wikipedia:CheckUser/Candidaturas ("O mandato de usuários com acesso à ferramenta de CheckUser está limitado a 1 (um) ano.") Lechatjaune 00:51, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
Hello Thogo, Wikipedia in Portuguese now has new bureaucrats, Lechatjaune, Leonardo.stabile and Alexanderps were not elected and their privileges should be removed. I endorse and confirm this request ;) Thanks @lestaty discuţie 02:19, 11 November 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Miscellaneous requests

Requests that don't fit in other sections belong here. Import rights can be granted by stewards only, not bureaucrats, so the automatic list of local bureaucrats is irrelevant for this. Please gather community consensus before placing a link to the discussion here.

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


[edit] User:Ciphers@arwiki for import

Status:    waiting until 2009-11-12

Hi, i would like to request the importer rights on arabic wikipedia for my account for trial. I may change these rights to my bot account later in case the trial worked as expected. link to the local request is here, sorry it is in Arabic. thanks! --Ciphers 11:10, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
