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.

Status:    On hold

The voting is over. Adminship is not available. --Санюн Вадик (talk) 18:59, 25 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

 On hold. Please start a new vote. The four votes were dated back in May 2013 that would grant you 3 months, now expired.--Jusjih (talk) 03:16, 26 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It is enough for granting administrator tools if no one from active users of Silesian Wikipedia (with more than 500 edits) won't be oppose trough one week. It is a small Wikipedia with no active administrators except myself. And starting from Sunday it is possible that I'll have no Internet connection within 3 months due to my new job outside my country. Lajsikonik (talk) 04:05, 29 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Done Granted for 6 months to expire on 2014-02-31. --MF-W 12:26, 31 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

MADe@be.wikimedia.org

Status:    Not done

Admin rights necessary to remove the continuous spam, and to remove some attachments that were uploaded and contain privacy related material. I'm the main proponent of the planned Belgian chapter, and I informed the community on the comm. portal MADe (talk) 08:17, 29 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

There are local bureaucrats. Why do not you ask them? Ruslik (talk) 10:59, 29 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
There is also a procedure: wmbe:Wikimedia:Access. Romaine (talk) 11:21, 29 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Not done, should be done by local bureaucrats (and hardly feedback on wmbe:Community portal btw). Trijnsteltalk 15:51, 29 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Are you not aware that your bureaucrat rights were removed because of this? --MF-W 19:41, 25 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I would not say that I was not known but not confirmed if it was a mistake as the points stated for removal seems not covering me, Anyways I had stated the present consensus and further Hi wikipedia is seriously lacking a crat. So I reiterate the request. --Ashish Bhatnagartalk 03:26, 26 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Not done The user already is an oversighter. --MF-W 00:14, 31 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
This is filed here, because his original appointment was tied to his AUSC seat which expires in mid-2014. This paperwork confirms he has been appointed indefinitely, though, there is nothing for Stewards to flip here. Courcelles 00:17, 31 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Well, you didn't tell us last time that we should list him on SRAT ;) (everything which is not listed there is considered to be given out permanently by stewards, removed upon proper request of course). --MF-W 00:20, 31 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Changed to Done then. (CU and OS is never given out temporary btw; only stewards do that) Trijnsteltalk 10:22, 31 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The committee would always request removal from an outgoing AUSC member who had not successfully applied to keep the permissions permanently. Audit Subcommittee terms are often extended by a month or two at short notice, so a temporary permission would be unworkable; best to let us request removal at the appropriate time.

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>

Hello. Please remove the inactive user from administrator flag per local consensus. No sysop activity for 1 year. Thank you.--Calak (talk) 07:36, 16 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Is there any local inactivity policy. Ruslik (talk) 15:07, 16 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I am sysop there. We give our policy from en.wiki. He has not any sysop activity for more than 1 year and his sysop right should be revoked per both policy and local consensus.--Calak (talk) 15:34, 16 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
 On hold until at least 2013-08-22.--Jusjih (talk) 17:04, 18 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Please check this request.--Calak (talk) 08:38, 22 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

We also resolved a local policy to desysopping inactive administrator who has not made 100 changes or administrator actions combined for at least one year (discussion page: Village pump (policy) and now it is available in Wikipedia:Administrators). Thank you.--Calak (talk) 06:48, 23 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know why you don't perform this request. You want local consensus, it is available, you need local policy, we provide it. User is inactive and has 0 sysop activity for more than 14 months. What do you want really? What is the problem? Please don't waste our time by holding this petty request. Now our community is await, we need new and active sysop for expanding our project. Thank you for your understanding.--Calak (talk) 10:58, 26 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Has Marmzok been informed about this request? Ruslik (talk) 06:04, 28 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Informing user doesn't change the policy or local consensus (and also not mentioned in our policy), however I informed him.--Calak (talk) 09:01, 28 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Serdelll@pl.wikipedia

Status:    In progress

Due to our policy, I hereby request removal of sysop acces due to inactivity in main namespace longer than one year. User has been notified two weeks earlier ([15]). Elfhelm (talk) 19:58, 29 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

But the last sysop action was on 25 May 2013? Ruslik (talk) 07:14, 31 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
In our policy (link above) we have: inactivity in main namespace longer than one year (this was last Serdelll's edition in main namespace; edition (25 May 2013) [16] was in Wikipedia namespace; last sysop action 26 March 2013). But we count only edition in main namespace ("przez rok nie dokonają edycji w przestrzeni głównej Wikipedii, tracą automatycznie uprawnienia" [17] -> means "inactivity in main namespace longer than one year"), other activity is indifferent (sysop activity, activity in Wikipedia namespace oraz template namespace etc.).

Less than 10 actions in the past 6 months. Del♉sion23 (talk) 00:00, 1 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Not inactive per policy (more than 10 actions in the past 6 months). Vogone talk 00:07, 1 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I'm sorry but if 1 March 2013 is 6 months ago, where are the 10 admin actions in the public logs. I only see 7 actions. Am I looking in the wrong place? Also, it would appear that d:User:Cyberpower678/ActiveStats needs improving. Del♉sion23 (talk) 00:24, 1 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Amire80 has 10 actions, as ns8 edits are considered as admin action as well. Vogone talk 00:27, 1 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Cool, that's fine then. I'll be less trusting of the User:Cyberpower678/ActiveStats page in the future and do the counting myself on those two pages. I was under the impression that the ActiveStats page was working. Cheers. Del♉sion23 (talk) 00:34, 1 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I've fixed it. Del♉sion23 (talk) 00:29, 1 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Not inactive per policy (more than 10 actions in the past 6 months). Vogone talk 00:07, 1 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Fair enough, though I'd like to point out (so that it doesn't look like I'm stupid) that Jdforrester quickly contributed 7 admin actions 5 minutes after this request was entered, thus passing the criteria. I hope they continue to contribute as an active admin. Del♉sion23 (talk) 00:20, 1 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
No, the bot just does not seem to work properly. James already had 134 valid actions before this request was filed. Vogone talk 00:22, 1 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
You are correct, looking at the public logs I can see that there were 14 admin actions since 1 March. It appears that the Cyberpower page definitely needs some correcting. Cheers. Del♉sion23 (talk) 00:27, 1 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
