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.

Hercule@ace.wikipedia

There are few votes, but the pool is open since 2 weeks, and the 2 sysops have supported it. Regards Hercule 09:16, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This page don't exist. Please, show us a valid link. Thanks. Alex Pereira falaê 11:58, 16 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The page is here.  — Mike.lifeguard | @en.wb 17:25, 16 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
This just seems weird - the community is fine with having an admin who does not speak the language? Odd. --Daniel Mayer (mav) 03:09, 17 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

SergeyJ@ru.wikiversity

I was the administrator in betawikiversity. Now the independent Russian section (http://ru.wikiversity.org) is created. I ask to grant to me the constant rights of the administrator that I can technically support the given project. In the beginning it is necessary to transfer the maintenance from betawikiversity in ru.wikiversity.org. And then to keep order and observance to rules. SergeyJ 02:49, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I would like add to this proposition about temporary "ImportUpload" right to transfert more easier the 300 russian files from betawikiversity tou ru.wikiversity. Allow up to middle-december ?.Crochet.david 17:35, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
If it is not a part of the rights of the administrator, really I ask still the rights "ImportUpload" SergeyJ 17:39, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
It is an individual question - why me pursue on ruwiki !? SergeyJ 14:10, 14 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
If the ru.wikiversity-community wants him, and is large enough to take the tools back if they wish it, ruwiki-history should not be important in the promotion. However, the question is if a new wiki has a stable enough community yet. Laaknor 14:17, 14 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Well, I'm not sure it's large enough. At least 13 supports wasn't considered enough year ago. vvvt 17:21, 14 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
In the same place just the status has been appropriated ... And the analogy here is completely not pertinent .. SergeyJ 17:59, 14 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
All basic participants participating in development beta wikiversiteta have supported me. Opening of RU Wikiversitet already means that the community is available. SergeyJ 14:44, 14 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Done. Sysop granted. Good luck to the ru-community with your new wiki :) Laaknor 22:18, 16 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks ! SergeyJ 22:26, 16 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

MacTire02@gv.wikipedia

I wish to apply for admin status on the Manx language wikipedia. We currently have no permanent admin on the project but we were informed that if we could get a vote from Alison as well as two other users we would be able to gain a permanent admin. The discussion for this proposal is listed as the first discussion in the template above. If we are still unable to obtain a permanent admin we have already had a vote on temporary admin status which can be seen at the second discussion listed above. Currently User:Shimmin Beg has temporary admin status until 16th November as part of an agreement between us, balancing on 6 months admin status for me, 6 months for him. But we in the community would be grateful if we could have a permanent admin. In the last few weeks we have seen a "flurry" of activity on the project and we feel it is necessary for us to be able to concentrate on managing this as well as maintaining pages, patrolling for vandalism, having the ability to delete nonsense pages, as well as general maintenance on the project. Kind regards, --MacTire02 13:06, 12 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I only see strong community support and no opposition after multiple temp admin runs. Permanent admin status granted per community vote. Please keep up the great work! :) --Daniel Mayer (mav) 03:22, 17 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you very much Daniel. Our community will greatly appreciate the permanent admin status. --MacTire02 08:13, 17 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

小躍@hak.wikipedia

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)[reply]

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)[reply]
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)[reply]

Unai Fdz. de Betoño@eu.wikiquote

My temporary permission is going to end in two days. I ask for a longer one. Thank's. --Unai Fdz. de Betoño 12:36, 15 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Could you please make an announcement on euwikiquote so the local community can make their opinions on this known?  — Mike.lifeguard | @en.wb 17:30, 16 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Wikitanvir@bn.wiktionary

Our only administrator is absent since April 5, 2008. So, we need a new sysop. There, my request for adminship have supported by three users, and opposed by none. As we have only 3/4 regular users (excluding me and bot accounts), I think it's enough for a permanent adminship. If the policy stand against this, i think a temporary adminship will suit me. I don't have a healthy healthy edit count in bn wikt, but as of today I have over 5,000 edits in bn Wikipedia, and i think this can help to approve my reqest. I need to be an admin because we need to delete some vandalized and encyclopedic page. We need to create and translate some mediawiki messages, and overall it needs proper maintenance also, so we need a regular administrator. — T@nv!r_ (Talk) 16:22, 16 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Not enough votes to give permanent, so expires 2010-02-16. Laaknor 16:32, 16 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

seicer@en.wikipedia

Former administrator in good standing who is requesting administrator status to complete trivial tasks. Seicer 20:02, 16 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Not done. Local bureaucrats exists and can grant sysop, as such stewards will not do it. Please contact a local 'crat. Laaknor 22:10, 16 November 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.

MBisanz@enwiki

For the Arbitration Committee, Risker 23:01, 10 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

OK, we are waiting for your respond. LeinaD (t) 11:57, 12 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I'm just going to mark this as not done & have it archived. When you know for sure you want it done, just place a new request. Thanks  — Mike.lifeguard | @en.wb 17:32, 16 November 2009 (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.

MBisanz@enwiki

For the Arbitration Committee, Risker 23:02, 10 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

OK, we are waiting for your respond. LeinaD (t) 11:57, 12 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
As above - please make a request when you know for sure.  — Mike.lifeguard | @en.wb 17:32, 16 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

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 -->
}}

Lavallen@svwikipedia

Please, remove my sysop and bureacrat-flag on sv.wikipedia. No change on other projects... -- Lavallen 16:04, 16 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Thank you for your work as sysop and bureaucrat. --M/ 16:27, 16 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thank You!! -- Lavallen 16:29, 16 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Laforgue@plwiki

Done. Thank you for your work as a sysop. --M/ 20:06, 15 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

PatrickVanM@nlwiki

Comment: translation of [5]: "I hereby hand in my modflags. From now on I will only be working on articles that I myself find interesting and no longer spend time on deletionlists (except when it concerns articles that are interesting in my eyes) and other discussions in which nonarguments are used continually. I also will not be making an effort anymore to support newbies, in many cases you don't get no gratitude and is constructive criticism seen as a personal attack." Taketa 15:44, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I've requested a confirmation to the user, may be on second thought... --M/ 17:40, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Fristu@dewiki

Done. Would you please leave a "thank you" message in german language on this user's talk page? --M/ 20:08, 15 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you, done. --Complex 20:23, 15 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yaroslav Blanter@ru.wp

Thank you--Yaroslav Blanter 09:18, 17 November 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:

Bot flags on mgwiki

Hello,

Many bots doesn't have the bot flag on mg.wikipedia. Indeed, the 48 robots that are categorized as such (which excludes the robots that have no user page), only 20 are classified as bots on wikipedia malagasy. That's why I'm requesting here, to give them an official bot flag. If you have another questions about this request, you may ask them in my home wiki --Jagwar 交談 homewiki 14:53, 15 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Not done. Your wiki allows global bots, and the bots are probably global bots doing interwiki only. If you wish to give them local flags, you should discuss it and file a request on SRB. Laaknor 16:24, 16 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
OK, thank you! --Jagwar 交談 homewiki 17:59, 16 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
