Aristote2 wants his sysop flag to be removed. I am asking it for him as [http://fr.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikip%C3%A9dia%3ABulletin_des_administrateurs%2F2012%2FSemaine_4&action=historysubmit&diff=74717971&oldid=74717870 he asked for], because he doesn't speak English.

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.

rieMOGerz 10:51, 9 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please start a discussion locally about this, on a community page such as the village pump or the local equivalent. If there are no objections after a week, we will grant you temporary adminship. PeterSymonds (talk) 10:56, 9 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Well, i try it. rieMOGerz 00:44, 10 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Progress report? If you've opened the request locally, would you mind linking us to the discussion? That would help when the time comes to determine the result of this request. Otherwise we will have to close it as not done. Many thanks, PeterSymonds (talk) 01:05, 17 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Please provide a link before Monday 23 January or this request will be archived as not done. --Daniel Mayer (mav) 00:29, 20 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Not done. If a local discussion / vote is complete, please open another request. --Bencmq 04:06, 24 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Bureaucrat access

Steward requests/Permissions/Crat-header

Arjunaraoc@tewiki

As the current Bureaucrats of Telugu Wikipedia are inactive for close to an year and attempts to contact them are not successful, the request is being filed here. I request similar Bureaucrat access to all Telugu Wiki projects, as I am working to improve the Telugu Wiki Community. Arjunaraoc 11:08, 5 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It seems you have 6 votes in favor and none to oppose. But currently stewards do not grant bureaucrat access to users who have less than 15 supports in favor. Of course, if the local bureaucrat wants to promote an user, it's up to him or her and the community. But for stewards its different. This thing is being discussed on Meta now. If the community is small stewards are always here to assist for bureaucrat help. Regards, — Tanvir | Talk ] 11:17, 5 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I have extended the voting deadline till Jan 22 2012 to get additional support votes. I will revert once the deadline is completed.--Arjunaraoc 12:53, 7 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
 On hold till January 22, 2012. — Tanvir | Talk ] 09:33, 11 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Can this support, which was made by an IP but signed by a user be re-signed by that user when s/he is logged in? Otherwise, the count of supports falls below 15. -- Avi 06:35, 22 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Current consensus is that it should be about 15 support votes, but 15 is only a soft limit. In this case there is no opposition and almost all supporters have significant number of contributions to the project. So, it is easily passes. Ruslik 08:35, 22 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
The last two votes were by an IP and a recently registered user! a×pdeHello! 11:00, 22 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
The last voter has few edits, but is technically over a year old. -- Avi 22:58, 22 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
User:Chaitanya_bhanu on the other hand is brand new with a handful of edits. -- Avi 23:01, 22 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Done The response on TeWiki demonstrates a consensus to allow Arjunaraoc access to the bureaucrat maintenance toolset. Many, if not most, of the respondents have over 500 edits on TeWiki or are of a year or older vintage, and there is no opposition to Arjunaraoc's volunteerism. -- Avi 23:09, 22 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for approving me as Bureaucrat for Telugu Wikipedia.--Arjunaraoc 03:59, 23 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

CheckUser access

Steward requests/Permissions/CU-header

Octahedron80@th.wikipedia

As an arbitrator, Octahedron80 has his identity verified by the foundation. (See diff.) --Taweethaも 01:22, 22 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Done -- Avi 06:42, 22 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Taweetham@th.wikipedia

As an arbitrator, Taweetham has his identity verified by the foundation. (See diff.) --Taweethaも 01:24, 22 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Done -- Avi 06:43, 22 January 2012 (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. 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>

 On hold for 24 hours because of this (to prevent actions which he could regret later). Trijnstel 22:41, 20 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I was going to ask a favour of 48h hold-back time, but 24 seems sufficient. Wojciech Pędzich Talk 22:42, 20 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Stewards are definitely lazy, so don't worry ;) --Vituzzu 22:48, 20 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, people, for holding this one — my head was definitely too hot, and I wish to cancel that request. I'm sorry for the inconvenience :-) Cheers, odder (talk) 13:43, 22 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Not done wb Odder. --Vituzzu 13:45, 22 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You seem to be quite active, are you sure you don't want to be longer a sysop? --Vituzzu 00:03, 23 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
@LeeGer, I have no idea why you want to quit, but could you please reconsider your decision? You're a great admin... Trijnstel 00:37, 23 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks Trijnstel. At the moment I believe all the crap isn't worth it. But I'll give it an extra day or two. LeeGer 06:19, 23 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
So  On hold --Vituzzu 11:08, 23 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Otm@skwiki

I request to remove sysop flag of Otm. Reason: inactivity as admin for 4 months, per rule about admins. --Bubamara 18:49, 23 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I see edits from January, 23 - Mind clarifying the inactivity guideline? Thanks. —Marco Aurelio (Nihil Prius Fide) 20:34, 23 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, the Slovak policy on admins says that if the administrator does not perform any sysop action in a four months time, their rights will be removed by stewards. Since the user's last sysop action was performed on May 27 / deletion, protect, block. --Bubamara 20:53, 23 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Done - Administrator rights removed. Thanks for the clarification. —Marco Aurelio (Nihil Prius Fide) 21:21, 23 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
