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.

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 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.


Ervin C.@ro.wikiquote

Status:    In progress

Hi, I would like to request for an administrator possition on romanian wikiquote. Here, I voted for two people. Please, need to get administrator rights. Thanks. --Ervin C. 09:52, 9 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

MSClaudiu@ro.wikinews

Status:    In progress

I wanna become a temporary administrator, because of the temporary inactivity of the local administrators. I want to be administrator for six months and to have all privileges of an administrator.

MSClaudiu 14:12, 4 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello MSClaudiu, please provide a link to the local community approval or link to the announcement on local village pump. LeinaD (t) 14:40, 4 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Please ask on the local village pump if anyone objects to you getting admin-rights. If noone objects in ~ one week, you can be given temp sysop. However, I think we should begin at 3 months and not 6. Laaknor 14:34, 4 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
A week has past now can I be an admin.MSClaudiu 11:41, 11 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I see the only bureaucrat there being inactive, while active on Romanian Wikipedia. I am asking before stepping in.--Jusjih 00:40, 12 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Could you make an announcement on kwwiki so we know if there are any objections to you continuing? Thanks.  — Mike.lifeguard | @en.wb 01:17, 6 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
There 'tis: kw:Wikipedia:An tavern#Adminship renewal again. --Kw-Moon 02:24, 6 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
 On hold until a local consensus is reached or a week is passed. Good luck! Kylu 02:33, 6 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Bengoa@eu.wikt

Status:    In progress

Hello, because of my bad English, I'll speak in English and Spanish: This is my third time I am temporarily administrator in the Basque wiktionary, and the 25th of this month it will expire. So I ask again to be, and this time if it could be forever, not temporary. And not cast a vote because birdy told me not to lack, and that made it in more times. Greetings --Bengoa (My user talk) 13:07, 12 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hola, debido a mi mal ingles, hablaré en inglés y español: Esta es mi tercera vez que soy temporalmente administrador en en wiktionary vasco, y el 25 de este mes se me expirará. Por eso pido volver a serlo, y esta vez si se pudiera para siempre y no temporalmente. No e echo una votación porque me dijo birdy que no hacia falta, ya que la había hecho varias veces. Saludos --Bengoa (My user talk) 13:07, 12 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Amqui@cr.wiki

Status:    Done

Good day, I request to become a temporary admin for three months on cr.wiki to do maintenance. This Wiki needs a lot of maintenance ; mainly editing pages in the Wikipedia space and deleting pages. I didn't open any discussion on this matters on the wiki itself because it seems there is not much community on cr. 23:38, 12 January 2010 (UTC)

Bonjour, je demande de devenir un administrateur temporaire pour trois mois sur cr.wiki afin d'y faire de la maintenance. Ce wiki a besoin de beaucoup de maintenance ; principalement éditer des pages dans l'espace Wikipedia et supprimer des pages. Je n'ai pas ouvert de discussion à ce propos sur le wiki lui-même parce qu'il semble qu'il n'y a pas vraiment de communauté sur cr. 23:38, 12 January 2010 (UTC)

Done set to expire 12-April 2010 bastique demandez! 23:41, 12 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Bureaucrat access

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

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@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.

Smooth O@bs.wiki

Status:    Done

Election done. --WizardOfOz 09:33, 22 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

User is not yet identified to the WMF. This needs to be done before access can be granted. I've posted information about the procedure at his talk page. --Erwin 09:42, 22 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Note: this user requested CU rights in last month: Steward requests/Permissions/2009-10#Smooth O@bs.wikipedia. LeinaD (t) 17:00, 22 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Note:Extended until 12-15-2009 even if there is no need. --WizardOfOz 19:54, 25 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for extending the vote. Policy is clear on this, you need 25-30 votes and 70-80% support for a checkuser election to be valid. 20 votes are not enough. See CU#Access_to_CheckUser. I hope that helps clarify matters, this is not a debatable point. ++Lar: t/c 19:23, 29 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Followup: It appears that the extension did not do much good, only one more vote was received, and that on 1 December. That's unfortunate... perhaps another extension and some publicity? ++Lar: t/c 19:56, 16 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, but I didn´t have a possability to wrote in last time by technical problems. If this is such a problem (even Dungodung sayed thats fine for him), I would like to give a link to another election, wich was maded on a much larger project without problems Lucas Teles. If there is still a problem I can extend again, and as you wrote make some publicity. --WizardOfOz 20:44, 16 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
You're correct in that the mentioned election does not meet the minimum requirements as stated for a general election, though pt.wikipedia isn't a completely accurate example for the situation: The request for checkuser assignment was given to us by a member of the pt.wikipedia ArbCom, which is one of the exceptions to the access to checkuser policy. You may wish to consider rescheduling your checkuser elections during a time of the year when people are not so busy, perhaps, to get greater turnout? Kylu 00:46, 17 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Extended again. We gonna make more publicity. Those 5 votes will be not a problem :) THX --WizardOfOz 10:32, 20 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps the difficulty in finding 25-30 people to show up at the election is a sign that local CUs are not needed?  — Mike.lifeguard | @en.wb 20:46, 31 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

We have 26 votes but two of them have not enough edits by the rules, and the last one is coming soon :), after vacation. --WizardOfOz 02:26, 1 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I ask you let me say something: actually, the sentence "...the mentioned election does not meet the minimum requirements as stated for a general election...", as it refers to this, is not correct at all, because it was a second round (2º turno) - a run-off -, just to choose between the two candidates that both meet the minimum requirements (see here) and received 25 votes each one. As there were two other candidates (43 and 39 votes) and we had to choose only three check-users, we had to make another election, only between the two candidates (me and Lucas). The election had all the minimum requirements, the voting period, the candidates mainpace edits, the minimum support and so on. CasteloBrancomsg 17:08, 4 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
So it is done! 25 votes, and 100% support. User is identified, so please if someone can give him the flag. --WizardOfOz talk 18:51, 5 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

OK, this is now Done, after a long and tedious procedure. 25 votes is enough, the user has been identified, he has 100% support. --FiliP ██ 23:14, 5 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

There is 23 valid votes ([2], [3]). --Roberta F. 15:06, 10 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Vodomar@hr.wikipedia

Status:    In progress

You have 27 supporting votes, 3 opposing votes and 2 neutral votes. You have 90% of support, but please submit your identification proving your age of majority. We cannot appoint you without proof.--Jusjih 23:28, 4 January 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.
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.

Removal of access

If you're requesting the removal of your own status, make sure you're logged in to a global 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; the rights will not be restored by stewards once they are removed.

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).

Requests for desysop closed by local bureaucrat –Juliancolton | Talk 05:36, 12 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This is actually a desysop and decratship to be slightly more clear. -Djsasso 14:24, 12 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Done. --Erwin 18:01, 12 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I would voluntarily like to have administrative rights revoked. To put it bluntly, I'm done. — ξxplicit 08:04, 13 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

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:

Import-rights on mg.wikis

Status:    Done

Hello,

Please could you enable importation for administrator on both wikis ? I would like to import page on these wikis and I can't because I am not an importer but administrator. Thanks in advance. --Jagwar 交談 homewiki 09:11, 28 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No we can not. If the community wish all admins to have the right (not recommended), hold a local discussion and file a request on Bugzilla. If you wish to have local import-rights, request the permission locally (like you would do if you asked for admin-access(?)), and come here and we can grant you the permission. Laaknor 09:17, 28 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I have already put a request on bugzilla (see bug #21762), but there, they says that there is no problem for importing (the person who replied me is a staff member on wikimedia) whereas I have a problem when trying to import... I understand according to this that importation function is enabled for staff, but not for administrators ? If it's really that, I will write a request on mg.wiki and if nobody replies to this, can I get rights after 10 days or I must absolutely have a positive reaction before having importer rights over there and on mg.wikt ? --Jagwar 交談 homewiki 18:28, 31 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Please wait until someone gives you a definitive answer in bugzilla--Nick1915 - all you want 18:37, 31 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
OK, a local request have been put there in malagasy --Jagwar 交談 homewiki 18:53, 31 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
If no local opposition, I would like to grant the flag, but with limited active users there, temporary flag may be more appropriate.--Jusjih 23:34, 4 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Done for 3 months until 2010-04-12.--Jusjih 00:44, 12 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
