Shortcut:
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= 
}}

dsvyas@gu.wikisource

Status:    On hold

Hi, I am sysop on gu.wikipedia. gu.wikisource.org has just been created today, and we would need some local admin/sysops there. So will appreciate if you could grant permissions to myself and User:Sushant savla as well as backup.--DhavalTalk 00:54, 28 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please file requests so that the local community can vote on them, then reply here after a week that they have been running. If there is little or no response, which might be the case given it's a new project, you will be appointed as local admins for a temporary, renewable period of 6 months or so.

created discussion on gu.wikisource. Will revert back in few days time.--DhavalTalk 01:07, 28 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
 On hold until the 4th of April (I've duplicated the request for the other user). Snowolf How can I help? 05:42, 29 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Status:    On hold

Lezgi Wikipedia has been created! I ask you to expand my admin status on the lezgi wikipedia so that I can still care about it. Thank you very much. --►Safir yüzüklü Ceklimesaj 12:48, 28 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You should make a local request first. Also I wonder what do you want to do there, as you hardly edited the test project on Incubator. --MF-W 12:51, 28 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
The user has added a comment "for 3 months etc. (For the interim status of technical Administrator.)" in the wrong section, as I understand it, he's indicating that his request is for temporary sysop to help set up the wiki for 3 months. Snowolf How can I help? 05:28, 29 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
 On hold till 5th of April. Snowolf How can I help? 05:28, 29 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
OK, I'll place a message to vote page about 5th April.--Soul Train (talk) 10:15, 29 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Why two weeks and not the customary one week? Snowolf How can I help? 05:29, 29 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Well, we give one week to get a vote for temp sysop, regular sysop should have enough supporters and time to find those. Am I wrong? a×pdeHello! 12:13, 29 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
No, but since we have two other rq's on this page regarding the same project, it would maybe be good to handle these three rq's in the same way. -- Lavallen (talk) 10:25, 30 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
This is a duplicate of a rq above. -- Lavallen (talk) 10:27, 30 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Bureaucrat access

CheckUser access

Steward requests/Permissions/CU-header

Piku@frwiki

Status:    Done

Freetrashbox@jawikipedia

Status:    Done

I request checkuser access on the Japanese Wikipedia for the user as per the discussion above. The user has not yet been identified by the foundation, but I'll send notification to the user via email soon. So the user will be identified in a few days, I believe. Thanks in advance. --Vigorous action (talk) 23:21, 31 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Looks procedurally sound (vote was 35/0/1 after 2 weeks), awaiting identification to add the flag. MBisanz talk 14:40, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Done User is identified, there is more than one existing checkuser on the project, the vote appears valid. MBisanz talk 14:52, 1 April 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>

ok please hold on till I can find one person that accept to be administratorReza1615 (talk) 10:57, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
That would be great, I've marked this request as not done for now, feel free to re-open this request when you want, or file a new one ;-) Thanks a lot :) Snowolf How can I help? 10:58, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
No global policy forbids a wiki to have one administrator only, but your request is being held, so you can reconsider whether to keep or quit your administrator flag. Whenever your are ready to decide, please tell us your intent. Best wish.--Jusjih (talk) 15:19, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Request for account creation rights

--Srikant Kedia 06:19, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Done as per irc conversation, the user is at a convention and needs to bypass the account creation limit. Best of luck and have fun. Right is temporary, remove in 24 hours or so. Snowolf How can I help? 06:21, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Also removed now per user request, but doesn't look like it was used at all *confused* Snowolf How can I help? 10:57, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

User Juandev@cs.wikiversity

Status:    Not done

Upon the community consensus (4 agree ("souhlas, souhlasím"), 1 disagree ("nesouhlasím")) I would like to ask for importer's rights on cs.wv. I would like to help with importing pages from wikies, for which transwiki import is not enabled. Within the time, I would like to cooperate with developers in enabling such import to transwiki import.

Note that this request was here about month ago. When I realized I don't have rights, I started to search what happened. It can be seen here: User talk:PeterSymonds#Rights removal. Basically, user:Danny B., who doesn't like me, probably manipulated steward to remove my importer rights. After discussion with PeterSymonds, I would like repeat the request. As I don't see objections presented "somewhere" by Danny B. Danny B. presented his non-supportive point of view on cs.wv, which was discussed by community (if you like, I will translate that discussion to English). Juandev (talk) 17:03, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Not done PeterSymonds removed the right [1] due to local concerns. I understand those concerns and stand by PeterSymonds' actions and endorse the removal. You will have to run a completely new request local on cswikiversity that includes more of the community, addresses the decenting opinion and has at least a two-three week run period. As such, this request is denied. fr33kman 19:26, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Well, this is really "interesting" situation and bureaucratic step. PeterSymonds removed the right upon private request of Danny B. on IRC (which is not even log it anywhere!), which is in personal dispute with Juandev (or Juandev is in personal dispute with Danny B., just make it politically neutral). The result of election on cs.versity is relatively easy. 4 people are supporting, one is again (and "surprisingly" is the person which was asking out of official canals). So because of private and non-official request of Danny B., you are ignoring results of local community and trying to make a new election. Yes, it makes sense... And again, I do not really care if Juandev will have or not the rights, however this procedure of ignoring local community and private request without logs is strongly unethical and contra-productive. --Chmee2 (talk) 07:48, 2 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Well if the user who is editing 2,5 month (user:JKoci) is not a community for you. Tell me, who is a community for you? Without that we can't move forward. On Czech Wikipedia it is enough to be editing one month and have 30 edits. For you 2,5 month is not enough. There is also a very small community, so I notified users, who had recent activity. So could you list me here usernames of people, who will be recognized for community consensus please? Thanks.--Juandev (talk) 07:49, 2 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Acquaintances and informal contacts are therefore more than the decision of the community? --Tlusťa (talk) 08:03, 2 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Fr33kman, please, could you be more specific? What are the "local concerns" and "objections"? --egg (talk) 00:03, 3 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Basically the election needs to be redone from scratch. The original election took place in January, then the flag was removed, under some controversy. I have nothing to say about the removal or reinstatement of the flag, however I do think that a new election needs to take place to avoid controversy. fr33kman 15:49, 3 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
