Revision as of 07:14, 21 April 2005


This is a central page to request permissions for sysop status, bureaucrat status or bot status on one of the Wikimedia projects, where no local means exist to do so yet.

If your wiki has a request for adminship page and a bureaucrat (a bureaucrat is able to make people sysop on the local wiki), please use your local page. If not, use this page.

For urgent access (to combat ongoing large-scale vandalism), you may ask on the IRC channels #mediawiki or #wikipedia on irc.freenode.net (users angela, anthere or engels).

Techniques to give status are described on m:stewards.

How to request status

When you make your request to be sysop, please follow the following steps

Step 1 : Have a valid local admin page (analagous to Administrator on Meta or w:en:Wikipedia:Administrator):

  • if an admin page does not exist on your project, please create this page. Add on this page:
    • Basic explanations of what a sysop is and what a sysop can do
    • Add a list of admins and bureaucrats on your wiki,
    • Add your name among those requesting sysophood on the admin page
    • then link the local admin page to this page.
    • and the conditions needed to become a sysop and the discussions (approval or disapproval) about a new candidate (larger wikis only).

Step 2 : mention your language code, and your project

Step 3 : give your user name on the project.

These three steps are mandatory. No request will be fullfilled if this is not provided.

The stewards will probably add a message on your admin page to mention you were named sysop without vote. If you wish that this message is posted in local language, please translate it. Thanks for the stewards.

Local request pages

Note to stewards: The steward interface has moved from Test to Meta. Please use special:makesysop.

Current requests for permissions

Please specify whether you are asking for adminship on Wikipedia, Wiktionary, Wikiquote, Wikibooks, or Wikinews. Please note that all adminships are subject to approval by the community. If you are granted adminship and a complaint is later filed against you, this may be revoked immediately pending a vote (like en:WP:RFA) to ensure the community on your wiki supports your request.

Bogdan

I request adminship for the Romanian wikibooks. On Romanian wikibooks there is currently no community and only one admin which hasn't showed up for more than a month. The previous admin posted some copyrighted materials (including some fiction books, such as this one) and when told to delete them, he quit wikibooks. (I am also User:Bogdangiusca on English wikipedia) Bogdan 19:44, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)

done. Sysophood given on a small project with no real community. Anthere

Sundar

I request adminship for Sundar in Tamil (ta) wikipedia. Sundar has adequate support among the active editors in the above mentioned wikipedia. See Tamil wikipedia adminship page. --- Mayooranathan 18:53, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)

ரவி (Ravi)

I request adminship for ரவி (Ravi) in Tamil (ta) wikipedia. Ravi has adequate support among the active editors in the above mentioned wikipedia. See Tamil wikipedia adminship page. --- Mayooranathan 18:53, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Sorry, I can not do it as I cannot use the special caracters. Another steward will have to help Anthere 19:55, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Anthere, his user name is just Ravidreams. Only his display name is in Tamil. :-) -- Sundar 07:14, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I request adminship for Santhoshguru in Tamil (ta) wikipedia. Santhoshguru has adequate support among the active editors in the above mentioned wikipedia. See Tamil wikipedia adminship page. --- Mayooranathan 18:53, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Harikishore

I request adminship for Harikishore in Tamil (ta) wikipedia. Harikishore has adequate support among the active editors in the above mentioned wikipedia. See Tamil wikipedia adminship page. --- Mayooranathan 18:53, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)


PCode

I would like to request adminship for PCode on the Chuvash Wikipedia (cv:. Administrators page is here.

Hi, I'll wait a little bit of time for opinions on cv. Anthere 19:57, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Skuolfi

Hi. Request for User:Skuolfi to be made admin on se.wikipedia. http://se.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:H%C3%A1ldda%C5%A1eaddjit#.5B.5BUser:Skuolfi.7CSkuolfi.5D.5D --24.251.243.233 17:29, 14 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Hi, I'll wait a little more time for people to give their opinion. Anthere 19:58, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)

User:GMelfi

moved from Meta:Requests for adminship --Elian 03:43, 13 Apr 2005 (UTC) Hi. I would like to request sysop status for User:GMelfi. I am currently the only sysop on scn.wiki. We are fast approaching 700 articles and have 59 users, but most importantly, we are now changing the main page each day to incorporate news items - and at the moment I am the only one that can do that because of its protected status. Furthermore, as we grow we are starting to get the odd vandalism attack. Being on opposite sides of the world will mean that we can pretty much keep an eye on it round the clock. Lastly, GMelfi has probably made as many edits as me and has proven himself to be a reliable wikipedian. Thanks and salutamu. --pippudoz 13:22, 7 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for putting us straight. Proper request now also on our page at: Wikipedia:Amministraturi. But we have no bureaucrats - which leads me nicely to ...

Pippu d'Angelo : made bureaucrat.

GMelfi : sysop

Anthere 20:01, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)

pippudoz

It has been suggested to me by some experienced wikipedians that I should perhaps consider putting my name forward as a potential bureaucrat for scn.wiki. I was one of its founders and remain the only sysop at the moment. GMelfi and I have both grown it to over 700 articles in just over 6 months through plenty of hard yakka. We are also involved in a few other wiki projects. I think we've reached the stage where we need a bureaucrat. My request and voting can be found on the same page at: Wikipedia:Amministraturi. Salutamu. --pippudoz 11:11, 14 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Nnh

done. Anthere 20:04, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Wegge

Currently the danish wiktionary has no administrators, but is in dire need of someone to take care of the MediaWiki namespace there. I therefore request sysop status on da.wiktionary.org. -- /Wegge 17:49, 2005 Apr 13 (UTC)

please make an administrator page on da wiktionary, mention your request there and link the page here. Thanks Anthere 20:05, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Weft

I'm sysop on fr.wikiquote since some months and now I request to be a bureaucrat. Because we have a new request for adminship. Thanks Weft 21:31, 14 Apr 2005 (UTC)


Puzzlet Chung

I request bureaucratship for Korean wikiquote. The wiki was created some month ago, but I found no one has the adminship. --Puzzlet Chung 11:28, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)

please create a page for admin over there, mention your request and add the link here. Thanks Anthere 20:07, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Requests for stewardship

For stewardship, see Talk:Steward. It is not processed like as other request for permissions.

Removal of access

Self-deadminship, or removal of bot flags from your bot can be requested here, and will be granted immediately. You may be asked to prove you are the same user on meta as on your local wiki first. To request the removal of sysop access from another user, please gain consensus on this on your own wiki first. All discussion must be kept on your local wiki. When it is finished and there is a community consensus to desysop a user, a trusted person from that wiki should just provide a link here to the discussion and a very brief explanation of what the results of that were.

Please desysop ja:User:0null0 on ja.wikipedia. 0null004:59, 9 Apr 2005 (UTC)

  • Wait: The legitimacy of this request is strongly suspected. no timestamp, no link to user page, no user page, no previous edit before this requestd. There is no firm evidence this request was done by ja:User:0null0. I requested this editor to make user page here on meta and put links between two projects: JAWP and meta. In my opinion, this request should be processed after establishment of identification, or after a trusted JA WP user make a request with a legitimate link to the relevant discussion. --Aphaia | Translate Election | ++ 04:32, 9 Apr 2005 (UTC)
    • He has added a link to his meta page at [1]. Angela 21:46, 9 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Requests for Bot status

To register a bot, please mention its name and the local wiki on which it will work here and make a public announcement about your intention on the local wiki and add a link to this annoucement here. The status will be given after one week if there is a rough approval.

Warning : for some big wikipedias, such as en:, you will need to specifically request an authorization over there. See en:Wikipedia talk:Bots for approval by a sysop and then ask for the bot flag here.

Bot policies: de en fr (about bots, and how to get status)

Note to stewards: Bot policy on Wiktionary (in particular en.wiktionary) is under discussion so bots should not be made without approval of the appropriate wiki. See Beer parlour.


FlaBot

Please give me bot-status for en:User:FlaBot i run a german interwiki-bot and can put in backlinks in the en-wiki. My other projekt is a software to find Links written in the same way in both languages but not linkt. --de:Benutzer:FlaBot 12:27, 5 Apr 2005 (UTC)

You need to get permission at en:wikipedia talk:bots for this first. Angela 21:46, 9 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Diderobot

I would like to request bot status for fr:User:Diderobot. I am a sysop on fr: and my username is listed on fr:Wikipédia:Bot, is that enough? It is a grammar/spelling/typography/syntax fixing bot that can also perform tasks from the bot request page. Sam Hocevar 22:08, 13 Apr 2005 (UTC)

done Anthere 20:08, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)

RKBot

I would like gain bot status for de:User:RKBot on de: - I am a sysop on de: (de:Benutzer:RKraasch), and the bot is listed on de:Wikipedia:Bots. It is a general Windows script (automating the MSIE) for various smaller tasks (right now fixing back links to deleted pages, and double redirects) and can also perform tasks from the bot request page. --Reinhard 09:54, 14 Apr 2005 (UTC)

done Anthere

PalicaBOT

I would like to request bot status for account sk:User:PalicaBOT. It is an interwikibot. Thank you in advance. --Palica 15:24, 14 Apr 2005 (UTC)

done Anthere

WeatherBot

Please mark changes from Commons:User:WeatherBot as "bot" edits. If it is possible to do so on all of the language editions of Wikinews as well, that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. — DV 06:47, 15 Apr 2005 (UTC)

done on commons. Please mention current wikinews language version. Thanks Anthere

YurikBot

Please grant bot status to ru:User:YurikBot - it has been in existence for almost a month, and it has been used for interwiki and category/template sorting. Several ru: admins are aware of it. --Yurik 15:43, 15 Apr 2005 (UTC)
P.S. Intentions announced here. Received support from the main RU bot-master HedgeHog here. --Yurik 20:58, 15 Apr 2005 (UTC)

done Anthere 20:11, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)

RCBot

This is a long request, sorry. But it is crucial for the bot's task to operate in all languages. I asked for permission at de and en, there is support at eo and ro. Please grant the bot status for the following user accounts:

:aa, ab, af, ak, als, am, an, ang, ar, arc, as, ast, av, ay, az,

honestly, you could ask a bot to do this :-)

JdforresterBot

Please could a steward grant bot status to w:en:User:JdforresterBot? The neccessary w:en: request ([2]) has been filed for 8 days without complaint, as per policy.
