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: 

 and also mistakes. Thank you. 
}}

Administrator access

See Administrator for information about this user group.

  • MediaWiki interface translations are done at translatewiki.net. Please do not request administrator access solely for that purpose; your request will be declined.
  • Stewards: Please use {{Systmp}} for approved temporary requests.

Requests for removal of access should be posted at the section below.

Please start a new discussion about requesting the permission on the local village pump, administrators' noticeboard or a designated page for requesting permissions each time you request or renew adminship.

  • Discussions should be open for seven days. Please request adminship here seven days after discussions started. This page is not the place for any discussions or votes. (For wikis with few active users, it is OK to have no comments.)
  • If you only want adminship for specific tasks, please state for how long and for which tasks you need it. Otherwise stewards will decide whether to assign permanent adminship and the duration of adminship. See Steward requests/Permissions/Minimum voting requirements.

Bloch khan@pswikivoyage

Status:    In progress

Hei i would like to renew my adminship, because I'm here and will be here only to learn, help others, and make Wikivoyage better and better place. Bloch khan (talk) 00:27, 5 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Munkhzaya.E@mnwiki

Status:    Done
@Munkhzaya.E: what are you requesting for? Stryn (talk) 14:02, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Hello? I want to be an administrator in Mongolian Wiki. We have very few admin who are active. That's why I want to become an admin and fight more with vandalism. Munkhzaya.E (talk) 14:06, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
 On hold till 3 July. Stryn (talk) 14:10, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Done Granted for 3 months to expire on 2018-10-03. To prolong your (interface) adminship, please start another election a few days before your temporary access expires, and after a week post your request again to this page. Thanks. -- Stryn (talk) 10:06, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hrishikes@bn.wikisource

Status:    On hold

This is a request to renew the administrator rights of Hrishikes in advance of their expiry at 12:08 UTC on 1 July. Mahir256 (talk) 22:43, 30 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

 On hold until 2018-07-07 --rxy (talk) 22:47, 30 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Doostdar@fawikibooks

Status:    In progress

request for prolongation. Doostdar (talk) 15:29, 1 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please, provide link to the actual request. Ruslik (talk) 20:33, 1 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Doostdar: Is there any local discussion? --Alaa :)..! 06:39, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
In the past, I have requested several times on this page in Persian Wikibooks but this time I didn't. Because it takes a long time for a discussion to come to result in a small Wiki. --Doostdar (talk) 12:42, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Just keep it open for 7 days, and then we either give/not give you rights. We can't give them without any discussion/vote. Stryn (talk) 13:47, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
No, thanks. It's the 7th time I'm requesting for the same access in a small Wiki and probably 6 month later I would ask for the same access again. It's an exhausting procedure. --Doostdar (talk) 04:24, 4 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
That's understandable. We can look at very long access this time (either 1.5/2 years or maybe indefinite depending on the discussion result), to ease the burden on you in the future. – Ajraddatz (talk) 05:33, 4 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

OlegCinema@bewikibooks

Status:    Done
sysop. — OlegCinema 03:15, 2 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Done Granted for 3 months to expire on 2018-10-02. -- --Alaa :)..! 03:27, 2 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Iliev@bg.wikibooks

Status:    Done

Again applying for renewal on bgbooks (link), just like on bgsource (link), with the same reason: combating the persistent and aggressive cross-project vandalism and harassment, which our Bulgarian communities have been facing in recent years. This is a long-term and serious commitment and since the community is getting somewhat weary of the constant need to vote for the two projects, I'll really appreciate if the rights could be given for at least one year, as was the case with Wikisource above.

Cheers, — Luchesar • T/C 09:54, 2 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Done Granted for 1 year to expire on 2019-07-02. Ruslik (talk) 20:19, 2 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Lilitik22@hywiktionary

Status:    Done
Thanks. @ջեօ 21:04, 2 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Done Granted for 6 months to expire on 2019-01-03. -- --Alaa :)..! 06:42, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Silenzio76@ro.wikisource

Status:    In progress

Hello, could you please extend my sysop rights at ro.wikisource? The 6 months period expired. My activity could be analysed, and I believe that it was beneficial for the project. I would appreciate if you could extend the time limits, so I do not have to make this request at every 6 months. In support to my request please have in mind my activity as a sysop at ro.wikipedia, and also as an OTRS volunteer for .ro domains. Thanks in advance! Silenzio76 (talk) 13:52, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please, create a formal request onwiki and wait for seven days for comments of other users. Ruslik (talk) 20:16, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Ruslik, last time I was proposed by someone else, and followed this process (please check), and couldn't understand why my permissions were limited to 6 months, now I requested the extension based on a verifiable and beneficial activity (please check). Please note that there is a user with unlimited rights, and he is not active since the fall of 2016. That project without an active admin will get vandalized, and during my time I have activated some filters to avoid this as much as possible. I find unreasonable the request to propose myself at every six months to do a volunteer task, on a project without too many active users. Thank you, Silenzio76 (talk) 21:26, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Everybody follows this process. So, should you. Ruslik (talk) 07:27, 6 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

OlegCinema@be.wikiquote

Status:    Done

Hi. I ran out of time administration in the Belarusian Wikiquote. I wanted to get the rights of a bureaucrat, but I learned that for such small projects it is impossible. Not to waste time, please immediately extend the rights of the sysop, as the bureaucrat above the administrator. During the time, there were no votes against — there were for. — OlegCinema 15:40, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Done Granted for 3 months to expire on 2018-10-03. Ruslik (talk) 20:21, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]


Moon@kwwikipedia

Status:    On hold

Hi, I was the administrator of the kw wikipedia for a few years, but my interest wandered elsewhere and I haven't been involved for a couple of years. There's been some renewed interest in Wikipedia among Cornish speakers, and the wiki is currently without an admin, so I'd like to get back into it to help out. Thanks --Moon (talk) 03:36, 6 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

 On hold until 13 July 2018 Ruslik (talk) 07:28, 6 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Bureaucrat access

See Bureaucrat for information about this user group.
  • In principle, requests for temporary bureaucrat access are not granted.
  • A small project does not need bureaucrats. Currently whether a promotion is valid or not is decided by stewards. See here for a guideline.

Requests for removal of access should be posted at the section below.

CheckUser access

See CheckUser policy for information about this user group and the policy governing the use of this tool.
  • To request CheckUser information, see Steward requests/Checkuser. This is the place to request CheckUser access.
  • One-time CheckUser access is not permitted and temporary access is only used by Stewards or when the mandate of the CUs has an expiry date specified in local policies.

HVL@ptwiki

Status:    Done

HVL was elected for a one-year term as CheckUser at Portuguese Wikipedia. He has not yet signed the Confidentiality agreement for nonpublic information. Thanks. Érico (talk) 09:37, 30 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

 On hold pending on the candidate's signature of the confidentiality agreement for nonpublic information (see instructions) and Wikimedia Foundation confirmation of the same —MarcoAurelio (talk) 18:29, 30 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@MarcoAurelio: It has been signed. --HVL talk 22:25, 30 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Perfect. We will wait until you're listed at Access to nonpublic information policy/Noticeboard by the Office. Regards, —MarcoAurelio (talk) 17:33, 2 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Jalexander-WMF and Kbrown (WMF): Can you please check if HVL signed, and if so, add them to the noticeboard? Tnx. Trijnsteltalk 20:56, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Now signed, so Done for 1 year. @RadiX: Can you do CU wiki/list/irc? Tnx. Trijnsteltalk 21:25, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
PS. Do not forget to remove OnlyJonny the coming night, as his CU rights will then expire. Trijnsteltalk 21:30, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
All done. I'll remove OnlyJonny from the private list/wiki in a few hours. RadiX∞ 00:37, 4 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Oversight access

See Oversight policy for information about this user group and the policy governing the use of this tool.
  • To request to have content oversighted, ask for a steward in #wikimedia-stewardsconnect and contact a steward privately. This section is for requesting access to the Oversight tool.
  • For contact details about oversighters across the wikis, refer to this page.
  • Note that temporary Oversight access is not permitted and temporary status is only used by Stewards .
  • When a new user is assigned to this group, please add them to this list.

Removal of access

  • 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 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 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 Admin activity review applies.
  • See the instructions above for adding new requests. Please post new requests at the bottom of the section.

Christian Ferrer@commons.wikimedia

Status:    Done

Please remove my administrator status in Wikimedia Commons, and restore my rights as they were just before. I never considered my administrator status as an Ad vitam æternam status. I will maybe, or not, apply for a new candidature, and then the community will chose, or not, to re-enter me. Regards, Christian Ferrer (talk) 16:13, 1 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

 On hold for 1 day, standard for resignation of advanced permissions. You will need to set your local permission as you want before we process it: We cannot manupulate Commons-specific permissions from Meta. — regards, Revi 16:19, 1 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
ok, thanks you, I restored my previous rights. Christian Ferrer (talk) 16:57, 1 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Christian Ferrer: Please reconsider, we need you.   — Jeff G. ツ 16:59, 1 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks you for your consideration, as I said I will maybe make a new Rfa in a few weeks or in a few months, it's not a drama. Christian Ferrer (talk) 17:06, 1 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Done, best regards. —MarcoAurelio (talk) 17:18, 2 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Coet@cawiki

Status:    Done

Please, remove admin rights per inactivity according to local policy. User has been notified. Last admin action was two years ago. Thanks, Paucabot (talk) 15:52, 2 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Done, best regards. —MarcoAurelio (talk) 17:19, 2 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Seidenkäfer: Please reconsider, we need you. --Peter Gröbner (talk) 06:09, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Seidenkäfer: We appreciate you as an administrator because of your conscientiousness and circumspection. Please stay! Alexander Gamauf (talk) 09:07, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Seidenkäfer: Please reconsider! It would be pity! You are a great admin! --Gelbrot (talk) 13:31, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Seidenkäfer: I respect your choice - 'så klart', but it would be such a pity Susann Schweden (talk) 15:35, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Absent any removal of the request, I've removed the sysop bit. Thanks to Seidenkäfer for their past work. – Ajraddatz (talk) 05:36, 4 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Jphwra@ukwiki

Status:    Not done

Please remove my admin rights. Thank you. --Jphwra (talk) 19:09, 2 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please don't fulfill it. It is emotional decision as result of harassment from several users.--Anatoliy (talk) 20:48, 2 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Can I withdraw the statement? Thank you. --Jphwra (talk) 22:19, 2 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Done. — regards, Revi 14:35, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Miscellaneous requests

Requests for permissions that don't fit in other sections belong here. Importer rights can be granted on most wikis by stewards only. Please gain local community consensus before posting a new section here.

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

  • SRB — Local or global bot status
  • SRGP — Global permissions

krassotkin@ruwikinews

Status:    In progress

According to the discussion above please grant me the permanent importer rights (transwiki and upload import) for Russian Wikinews. I have been working with this flag on the site of Wikimedia Russia (is available to sysops there). --sasha (krassotkin) 09:28, 7 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
