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.

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
Administrator access
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.
Demmy@yo.wikipedia
- Wiki: yo.wikipedia.org (list 'crats • bot policy • summary • 'crats rights)
- User: Demmy (talk • edits • logs • UserRights • activity • CentralAuth • email • verify 2FA)
- Discussion: w:yo:Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/demmy 2
I am requesting a three-month extension to my sysop. I am the only active administrator on the wiki. Thanks. Demmy 01:08, 2 March 2010 (UTC)
Bureaucrat access
General note
There is an ongoing discussion regarding the minimum number of votes and overall participation to promote users to bureaucrat at Talk:Bureaucrat#Minimum_number_of_votes. Users are encouraged to assist in the development of a policy that allows stewards to not decide on whether a promotion is valid or not. Thank you.

- User: Sabri76 (talk • edits • logs • UserRights • activity • CentralAuth • email • verify 2FA)
- Discussion: wikt:tr:Vikisözlük:Bürokratlık başvurusu/Sabri76
The voting has finished. Thanks...--Sabri76 23:21, 27 February 2010 (UTC)
- Comment only: There's a currently-ongoing (and momentarily stalled) discussion at Talk:Bureaucrat#Minimum_number_of_votes here regarding minimum participation and support in an election in order to grant bureaucrat flags here. Consensus is not yet reached, but traditionally has been that one needs 15 or so supports for the election to be meaningful. You may want to consider (advice only) leaving the election open to garner more votes. Kylu 01:10, 28 February 2010 (UTC)
- I've understood, but this wiktionary hasn't got a bureaucrat and we haven't got enough active users. If it is necessary, I'll wait for 15 votes. I'm opening the election to garner more votes.--Sabri76 08:35, 28 February 2010 (UTC)
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-ownerlistswikimediaorg so the listadmins know the person is allowed on the mailing list, and make sure they contact an op for access to #wikimedia-checkuser.
Oversight access
To request to have content oversighted, ask in #wikimedia-stewards, or email oversight-llistswikimediaorg 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
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).
==== username@xxproject ==== {{sr-request |status = <!--don't change this line--> |domain = |user name = |discussion= <!-- local confirmation link / local policy link --> }}

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:
- Local or global bot status
- Other global rights, requests regarding global blocking, and requests regarding locking accounts
- URL blacklisting
- Requests for CheckUser information
- Changing your username on Meta
- Changing your username or usurping an account on a Wikimedia wiki without bureaucrats

- Wiki: simple.wikipedia.org (list 'crats • bot policy • summary • 'crats rights)

- Discussion: Hello. I am a local administrator for the Simple English Wikipedia. When we approve "importers" on the project, it is for a transwiki import, not a direct file upload. So, this user actually needs the transwiki importer right instead of the importer right. His permissions should match those of another user Razorflame for example.
