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= 
}}

Administrator access

Tucoxn@fj.wikipedia

I have been carrying out local admin actions since being granted the rights. The community is not big enough to support a permanent admin. I would like to request that my admin rights be extended. Vinaka vakalevu. - ʈucoxn\talk 18:28, 28 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Please start a new discussion and provide us a link to it. After a week with no opposes you'll be granted the rights again for a while. Trijnsteltalk 18:38, 28 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I started a new discussion here, on the Fijian Wikipedia community portal. The community is extremely small and I do not expect much participation in the discussion. The delay in beginning this discussion was due to recent and ongoing travel – thanks for your patience! - ʈucoxn\talk 12:19, 9 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Doostdar@fa.wikibooks

After my experience of wikidata I started collaborating with Persian Wikibooks. There I'm one of the most active users of recent months and have translated Deletion policy and Copyrights. This shows my awareness of these policies, in details.

 On hold until 6 December QuiteUnusual (talk) 12:11, 29 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Not done as I see two opposing symbols.--Jusjih (talk) 00:52, 8 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

David1010@ka.wikibooks.org

The project needs permanent maintenance and one single administrator for a long time does not fulfill its obligation. I request administrator access.--David1010 (talk) 20:24, 1 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Please start a local discussion. --MF-W 23:05, 1 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: A local elections was held. Please process it. Thanks. –BruTe talk 10:47, 9 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

555@ptwikisource

In October 2011 I've resigned my sysop+bureaucrat flags on pt.wikisource, in an uncontroversial fashion, due to the lack of free time. The wiki don't seems to have a community (in fact I've found lots of needed changes in MediaWiki namespace and spam deletions) but anyway I've made a local announcement. Please let me known if I need to wait for seven days or if the sysop flag can be restored without this delay. Lugusto 15:03, 6 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

 On hold until 13 December 2013. We do not restore userrights that have been removed regardless of the reason for the removal (except plain errors). Ruslik (talk) 18:55, 6 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Санюн_Вадик@mhr.wikipedia.org

I'm an administrator, provisional period has expired. Санюн Вадик (talk) 19:08, 8 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ronn@nl.wikipedia

(your remarks) Ronn (talk) 12:06, 9 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Not necessary. The local bureaucrat CaAl already gave the admin rights to Ronn. I guess he was just eager to start. ;) Trijnsteltalk 12:44, 9 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

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>

Also remove the bureaucrat flag?--Jusjih (talk) 00:58, 8 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The policy says: "Alleen de bureaucraatstatus ontnemen is niet mogelijk". This rather indicates that there is no local policy regarding removal of the bureaucrat status for inactivity, even though only administrators can obtain this status. Anyway, I am not sure whether the AAR might have any impact in this case. Vogone talk 01:12, 8 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
