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.

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.


Captain Jones@kywikipedia

Status:    On hold

In the project has one administrator. He didn't use his tools since May 30. Deletions here, blocks here and protects here. I request temporary sysop access, thanks Captain Jones 11:30, 19 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Have you asked on the local projects village pump and waited ~ a week? Laaknor 11:46, 19 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
You do not seem to be active on this project, please mark pages for quick deletion using {{delete}} template. Temp sysop access is generally granted only if deemed necessary, please state why you need it. Thank you. --M/ 11:53, 19 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Please open a local request too, thanks, --birdy geimfyglið (:> )=| 11:15, 26 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Local request here. Thank you.--Captain Jones 13:38, 26 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Mo7amedsalim@arwikinews

Status:    In progress

Please give the sysop access to Mohamed Slim, Best Regards -Orango speak! 02:34, 22 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

hello Orango as i see there is only two support vote which is not enough for permanent adminship so i suggest you Temporary adminship which is technically same as a permanent adminship , whenever your community grew enough for permanent adminship you can request for permanent adminship and please hold the RFA at least for one week --Mardetanha talk 02:43, 22 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Hello Mardetanha, I think I rushed :) . Overall the number of voters is sufficient because the project is not very very active. Please consider the request tomorrow (The end of the one week). Thankyou --Orango speak! 03:43, 22 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Hello Orango, I agree with Mardetanha, we can offer adminship for a three months period, note that this can be prolonged easily, just check back here a few days before the status expires. Best regards, --birdy geimfyglið (:> )=| 08:12, 25 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Hello Spacebirdy, Now I think that there is a consensus in the ar.wikinews to give him a sysop access, the wiki is not big, the number of contributors is very limited. Better to give him full access, Thanks --Orango speak! 15:58, 28 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Hello Orango, I am sorry, but 2 votes are too few for a permanent status, temporary status is full access, this is only a quality control, he can prolong it easily shortly before the period runs out by leaving a short notice here, if everything is alright it will be prolonged without any bureaucracy. Best regards, --birdy geimfyglið (:> )=| 19:52, 29 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

kanags@tawikinews

Status:    In progress

Hi, I'm Kanags, and I am an active sysop in Tamil Wikipedia since Feb 2007. Now I am actively involved in Tamil Wikinews as well and wish to become an administrator. As Tamil wikinews has no Bureaucrats or sysops, I am unable to do some tasks which I needed, specially deletion of unwanted files, vandalism etc. Thank you in advance.--Kanags 10:24, 26 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please open a local request to allow users there to express their opinion, even if You think there are no users active there possible users should get a chance to voice their opinion, thanks, best regards, --birdy geimfyglið (:> )=| 11:13, 26 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks Spacebirdy, I've opened a local request.--Kanags 13:00, 26 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I have an absolute trust on Kanags as he is well known for his neutrality, indepth analysis he has contributed enormously in Tamil wikipedia and he is should be given sysops position. I strongly support him.--Umapathy 12:53, 26 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Hello Umapathy, please note that this here is no voting page, please express Your opinion on the local voting page if You wish to, thanks, --birdy geimfyglið (:> )=| 16:16, 26 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

chrisportelli@mtwiktionary

Status:    In progress

I demand a temporary adminship so as to carry out certain tasks such as page deletions, editing MediaWiki messages to the correct Maltese translation, updating/creating the Common.css page, and ordering well the sidebar. Chrisportelli 15:04, 27 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, translations are only to be made and corrected in translatewiki: if You can agree to that and make a local announcement (and if locals don't disagree) temporary status can be granted, best regards, --birdy geimfyglið (:> )=| 22:58, 27 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I can agree to this. My only hope is to re-construct the Maltese Wiktionary, because it needs to be updated just like our wikipedia is. Thanks. —Chrisportelli 13:52, 28 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
When is it going to be accepted? —Chrisportelli 11:49, 29 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Please link to the local request and let the local community at least one week to decide, thanks, --birdy geimfyglið (:> )=| 19:49, 29 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Atm, the wiki is a bit inactive and there is no local request pages open on mt.wiktionary. My only work to do is to update the wiktionary. —Chrisportelli 21:03, 29 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Please do a local request anyway, this way no one can say afterwards they hadn't known or hadn't had the chance to give their opinion (we had that in the past). There might be some people reading there, one never knows, so please grant possible local users to give their opinion and not being overruled. Thanks, best regards, --birdy geimfyglið (:> )=| 21:10, 29 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Agree with 'birdy... this is really a good practice. Thanks for offering to help, Chrisportelli. ++Lar: t/c 21:15, 29 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Xavier_Dengra@cawikibooks

Status:    In progress

Hello. I'd like to ask for permanent administrator/sysop status to User b:ca:User:Xavier Dengra, as a result of the voting process that has taken place at b:ca:Viquillibres:Candidatura_a_administrador#Xavier_Dengra. Voting finishes August 1st., but I don't know if I'll have connection next days. There is still no bureaucrat at ca.books. He wants this user right for deleting garbage, importing from Wikipedia and those kind of things, because other administrators are a bit inactive. Thank you. -Aleator (talk) 23:21, 29 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

That being the case, we will check the vote after it is closed. --Daniel Mayer (mav) 23:35, 29 July 2009 (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.

Oversight access

To request to have content oversighted, ask in #wikimedia-stewards, or email oversight-l@lists.wikimedia.org 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.

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 -->
}}

Djsasso@simplewiki

Status:    Done

Per the controversial promotion of a RfB candidate here and based on opposes of the promotion by other users, citing the minimum 75% support needed (which is not present in that RfB), I hereby request removal of bureaucrat rights from the above mentioned user. Thank you. Chenzw 10:51, 29 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Woww@frwiki

Status:    Done
Done--Nick1915 - all you want 11:35, 28 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Diabo e Santo@ptwiktionary

Status:    Done

This user has been a trouble maker from the get-go, but his behaviour has worsened considerably in the past month, prompting the community to have a vote to remove his sysop privileges. The result is unanimous, so I would like to request the removal of his privileges as soon as possible. Thanks in advance.

--ValJor 18:17, 28 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Already done by Drini. —Dferg (talk) 11:05, 29 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you very much for your prompt reply!
--ValJor 13:44, 29 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Uri R@hewiki

Status:    Done
thank you for your work!--Nick1915 - all you want 11:42, 29 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Many thanks, Uri R 13:26, 29 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

==== Guidomac@it.wikipedia.org ====

Status:    On hold
Please take it on hold, thank you --Melos 14:10, 29 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Have any local discussion page? Alex Pereira falaê 14:15, 29 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
There was only a sort of misunderstanding concerning a deletion, just a very silly thing. Please grant him a cool down period, this is not an emergency deflag, there's no need to rush. So, quoting Melos. --Roberto Segnali all'Indiano 14:23, 29 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Per Roberto. BTW Guido has just struck this request, so we can wait. --Vituzzu 14:35, 29 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Geogre@enwiki

Status:    Done

Please desysop Geogre@enwiki per a motion by the Arbitration Committee. Cbrown1023 talk 00:22, 30 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Done — Mike.lifeguard | @en.wb 02:51, 30 July 2009 (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:

Razorflame@simple.wikipedia

Status:    In progress

Please remove the importer permission. Inactive user, no longer importing. NonvocalScream 00:34, 24 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

We need one of three things:
  1. Link to a clear decision made by the community to remove these rights, or,
  2. Link to a statement by the affected user relinquishing the right (retirement/indefinite wikibreak does not count), or,
  3. A description of an emergency situation necessitating such removal, typically in the form of a present danger to the project in question directly pertaining to the right in question.
I understand your community is currently discussing the situation. We have no problems waiting until the community has reached a decision regarding the rights. Kylu 00:51, 24 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Excellent, community discussion is in progress. Best, NonvocalScream 00:59, 24 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
