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:

==== User name@xxproject ====
{{sr-request
 |status    = <!--don't change this line-->
 |domain    =
 |user name =
 |discussion= 
}}

Administrator access

See Administrator for information about this user group.

  • MediaWiki interface translations are done at translatewiki.net. Please do not request administrator access solely for that purpose; your request will be declined.

  • Stewards: Please use {{Systmp}} for approved temporary requests.

Requests for removal of access should be posted at the section below.

Please start a new discussion about requesting the permission on the local village pump, administrators' noticeboard or a designated page for requesting permissions each time you request or renew adminship.

  • Discussions should be open for seven days. Please request adminship here seven days after discussions started. This page is not the place for any discussions or votes. (For wikis with few active users, it is OK to have no comments.)
  • If you only want adminship for specific tasks, please state for how long and for which tasks you need it. Otherwise stewards will decide whether to assign permanent adminship and the duration of adminship. See Steward requests/Permissions/Minimum voting requirements.

Chaojoker@hywikibooks

Give admin rights, because has 1 support, 1 void oppose, void because it is wrong commentary, he say that Chaojoker has not given its consent. --Vadgt (talk) 07:26, 14 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Where and when did he give his consent? Ruslik (talk) 16:42, 14 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
He not answered to this question, this one is a question. But since thereof he not make a edit[1]. Possibly he not looked this. --Vadgt (talk) 03:48, 15 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
On hold till the user answers "yes". Ruslik (talk) 20:15, 15 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Vadgt@akwikipedia

Please give my admin rights again. Because no "oppose" vote. --Vadgt (talk) 17:32, 30 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

There's over 2 weeks left, see this. --Stryn (talk) 17:40, 30 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

عثمان منصور انصاري@psWP

PsWp need a local admin, please give him admin rights UsmanKhan (talk) 11:23, 2 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

 On hold till 5 November 2015. Ruslik (talk) 20:03, 3 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Bureaucrat access

See Bureaucrat for information about this user group.
  • In principle, requests for temporary bureaucrat access are not granted.
  • A small project does not need bureaucrats. Currently whether a promotion is valid or not is decided by stewards. See here for a guideline.

Requests for removal of access should be posted at the section below.

User Liridon@sq.wikipedia

The reason why I request here is because our three bureaucrats are inactive. The voting stared 2 months ago (27 August 2015), and if a Steward dont take action, this will take months until a bureaucrat return in sq.wikipedia. I'm administrator since 2009, and in voting process for bureaucrat, I have support of four administrators.--Liridon (talk) 22:04, 1 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I think I'm ok with a 6 month approval here? Anyone else have thoughts? MBisanz talk 01:14, 2 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Temporary bureaucrat rights isn't really common practice. Honestly, I'm not sure if there is enough support on that request to grant a bureaucrat flag at all. Ajraddatz (talk) 01:44, 2 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@MBisanz I'm not asking for temporary rights, I'm asking a steward to act in absence of local bureaucrat. @Ajraddatz you can see also other candidatures for admin and bureaucrats rights with 5 or 6 votes at sq.wiki, we are small wiki, and rules say you need "at least 5 supporters".--Liridon (talk) 12:21, 2 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Your wiki should either discuss whether to keep or remove these 3 bureaucrats, or decide how many days of no bureaucrat activity will allow us stewards to step in.--Jusjih (talk) 01:59, 3 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Jusjih thanks for suggestion, as a small wiki that we are is clear that we dont need 3 nor 4 bureaucrats, we just need one who will be active. I just started a discussion in our Village pump, and waiting for ideas, maybe will vote for new rules.--Liridon (talk) 13:24, 3 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

CheckUser access

See CheckUser policy for information about this user group and the policy governing the use of this tool.
  • To request CheckUser information, see Steward requests/Checkuser. This is the place to request CheckUser access.
  • One-time CheckUser access is not permitted and temporary access is only used by Stewards or when the mandate of the CUs has an expiry date specified in local policies.


Oversight access

See Oversight policy for information about this user group and the policy governing the use of this tool.
  • To request to have content oversighted, ask for a steward in #wikimedia-stewardsconnect and contact a steward privately. This section is for requesting access to the Oversight tool.
  • For contact details about oversighters across the wikis, refer to this page.
  • Note that temporary Oversight access is not permitted and temporary status is only used by Stewards .

  • When a new user is assigned to this group, please add them to this list.

Removal of access

  • 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 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 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 Admin activity review applies.
  • See the instructions above for adding new requests. Please post new requests at the bottom of the section.

User Tiptoety@Global

Please remove all my userrights, both globally and locally. I have been inactive for some time and do not see myself returning to an acceptable activity level anytime soon. Thank you, Tiptoety talk 20:26, 3 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Miscellaneous requests

Requests for permissions that don't fit in other sections belong here. Importer rights can be granted on most wikis by stewards only. Please gain local community consensus before posting a new section here.

Note that the following types of permissions requests belong on separate pages:

  • SRB — Local or global bot status
  • SRGP — Global permissions
