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: 

==== Username@xxproject ====
{{sr-request
 |status    = <!--don't change this line-->
 |domain    =
 |user name =
 |discussion= 
}}

Gusta@pt.wikivoyage

Status:    Done

Only rollbacker at pt.wiki, but i would like to help other users (see requests above). There aren't many active users there. One month or two should help. Gusta (talk) 22:25, 16 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Can you please provide a local vote or discussion about this ? Stewards can't grant permissions without an explicit community consensus, and your case is a bit tricky here... I see your account was created like 24 days ago, so you're in my opinion not sufficiently experienced to be a sysop on a WMF project. Don't you think it would be better to wait some more months ? -- Quentinv57 (talk) 13:37, 22 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The community there is new. There are no crats. There is only a announcement. (see archived requests). As said i'm active at wikipedia. Gusta (talk) 00:59, 23 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
He is asking for a temporary sysop-ship, which doesn´t appear to require a community consensus according to the text above. For what it´s worth, I support a two month period.Texugo (talk) 17:03, 23 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Anyway i created a discussion, and Biologo32 as well. See here. Gusta (talk) 17:20, 23 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Edinwiki (talk) 17:32, 1 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Taking into account the level of support that you have received in that discussion, only a temporary adminship of 3 months duration is warranted. Ruslik (talk) 16:03, 2 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The amount of support should be taken as a relative measure, since it is a very small community. It is exactly because of this that the help is requested from the currently only active admin at the project. I'm currently (and so is KWiki for that matter) an experienced administrator on bs.wiki. So please reconsider this, and if possible, we would request a permanent adminship instead. -- Edinwiki (talk) 23:55, 3 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Not done, local bureaucrat is active (on enwikt). Please ask him to grant you the flag. --Bencmq (talk) 05:08, 5 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Please grant adminship--Arjunaraoc (talk) 11:07, 4 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Done Granted for 3 months to expire on 2013-05-05. 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. — T. 06:33, 5 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Request for my temporary adminship to be renewed on Tsétsêhéstâhese Wikipedia. Thanks, Amqui (talk) 02:27, 5 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Algazel@ms.wikibooks

Status:    Done

Bahasa Melayu Wikibooks has been dormant for quite a while and there has been vandal activity recently. I'm a sysop at Bahasa Melayu Wikipedia. Thanks. Algazel (talk) 02:51, 5 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You need to provide a link to a local announcement asking the community for the temporary admin (sysop) rights. Amqui (talk) 03:13, 5 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, here's the link. The community is very small at the moment, only 3 users in the past year so i don't expect any votes soon. Algazel (talk) 04:30, 5 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
 On hold. I don't understand anything about the request. I just understand a signature of the candidate at the bottom. Is the thing on the top is a statement and people suppose to express their opinion below that? Could you please clear that up? — T. 06:50, 5 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
You mean the link? Sure. The thing at the top is the name of the candidate and other users are supposed to give their opinions below the signature. The thing is, a user blanked our version of the village pump (it's been restored) and I'm concerned that he may repeat the action. There's no sysop for the project at the moment. The last time the wiki had a temporary sysop was in 2009. I understand that sometimes very small wikis don't need sysop but being a sysop for a couple of months will enable me to watch the wiki better and show vandals quickly that somebody is watching the wiki and they'd better be careful. I'm only asking to be a temporary admin. Thanks Algazel (talk) 09:49, 5 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Do you want temporary access or permanent access? For permanent access, you need to wait the discussion for at least a week. For temporary access, it can be granted immediately, since I know your activity in ms.wikipedia, and the temporary access can be renewed once it expired. I think for small wiki like ms.wikibooks a temp access is preferred. ✒ Bennylin 13:14, 5 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Just temporary access 2-3 months will do. Algazel (talk) 14:25, 5 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Seeing your works on ms.wp, you've been granted 3 months temp access on ms.wikibooks. You can request an extension or even a permanent admin right in 3 months. ✒ Bennylin 15:52, 5 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks very much. Algazel (talk) 16:05, 5 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

CheckUser access

Steward requests/Permissions/CU-header

Oversight access

To request to have content oversighted, ask in #wikimedia-stewards, or, for requests regarding English Wikipedia email oversight-en-wp@wikipedia.org. 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

<translate>

  • 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 [[<tvar name="self-discussion">Talk:Steward_requests/Permissions/2011#Self_requests</tvar>|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 [[<tvar name="crat-rem">Bureaucrat#Removing_access</tvar>|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 [[<tvar name="aar">Admin activity review</tvar>|Admin activity review]] applies.
  • See the [[<tvar name="usage">#Using this page</tvar>|instructions above]] for adding new requests. Please post new requests at the bottom of the section.</translate>

Mami@huwiki

Status:    Done

On the Hungarian Wikipedia all admins are elected for indefinite time but if they do not contribute at least 10 sysop edits within a year they loose their flag automatically. (See policy link above.) Mami has been inactive for a very long time, please remove his access. Thank you. --Joeyline (talk) 23:38, 3 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Anoop, Please hold off for a bit. Lets see if we can address your concerns first? --Jyothis (talk) 17:29, 5 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Strongly agree with Jyothis. I humbly request to re-consider this decision. Malayalam Wikipedia needs people like you. Stewards may want to wait till some differences in opinion on the ML Wiki have cooled down. -- Tinu Cherian - 17:37, 5 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
On hold: it won't be processed before some dozens of hours. --Vituzzu (talk) 17:38, 5 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
As dicussed with other fellow wikipedians, i have changed my decision. Please withdraw this request. Thank you --Anoopan (talk) 03:19, 6 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
