RfP RFP
This page enables stewards to handle permissions requests, including the giving and taking of administrator, bureaucrat, checkuser, and oversight rights, for all Wikimedia wikis which do not have a local permissions procedure. 'If your wiki has a local bureaucrat, submit your request to that user or to the relevant local request page (see the index of request pages). Requests for bot status, URL blacklisting and whitelisting, and CheckUser queries belong elsewhere.

For urgent requests, such as to combat large-scale vandalism on a small wiki, contact a steward in the #wikimedia-stewards IRC channel (see a web-based IRC client). In emergencies only, type !steward in the channel to inform stewards that you need help.

Please only make requests here after gaining the approval of your local community.

When requesting permissions, copy and paste the following text into the correct section. Please fill in all the required fields -- language code, link to the local request, and link to your local user page. Without this information, a steward cannot process your request.

Please summarize your request in the "summary".

Requests

Administrator access

See administrator for information about the position. Requests for temporary permissions and removal of access belong in other sections.

Cherokee Wiktionary

I request Administrator access for the User:Cherokeekid in Cherokee Wiktionary.

  • Language Code:chr
  • Local Request Link:None?
  • Local User Page:Cherokeekid

Thank you. --Cherokeekid (June 15 2007)

Please make a request to the local community first. If there is no local community, you may request temporary adminship below.--Shanel 04:15, 16 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
There is no local community, so I'm putting a request below for temp. adminship, will I be able to permanentize it later? --Cherokeekid
You can only receive permanent adminship by making a request to the local community; since one does not currently exist, you can only have temporary adminship. That request will be granted.--Shanel 03:43, 18 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ukrainian Wiktionary

Please grant the admin status to wikt:uk:Користувач:Minia.

  • Language Code: uk

Wikipedia Tetum

I request sysop access, but note: I have it yet. I got temporary adminship (see here) which didn't expire.

Thank you. MF-Warburg(de) 17:34, 18 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Bureaucrat access

See bureaucrat for information about the position.

Bulgarian Wikipedia

Per local RfA. The project is already relatively big but has only one bureaucrat.

Thank you. --Nk 12:49, 17 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Since there is a local bureaucrat, you must ask him to give you the tools using the bg:Special:Makesysop special page. guillom 19:01, 17 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry. It's already done. --Nk 11:59, 18 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ukrainian Wikinews

Please grant the bureaucrat status to n:uk:Користувач:A1 (local bureaucrat is inactive since September 2006)

  • Language Code: uk
  • Local Request Link: [2]
  • Local User Page: A1

Done! Ausir 21:18, 18 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

CheckUser access

To request CheckUser information, see Request for CheckUser information. This is the place to request CheckUser access. Note that temporary CheckUser access is not permitted.

Stewards: When someone asks for CheckUser status, please check the current policy regarding bestowal of status before giving the status. Breaching these rules may be cause for removing your steward access. When you give someone CheckUser, please list them on CheckUser, ask them to subscribe to checkuser-l, email checkuser-l-owner@wikipedia.org so that the listadmins know the person is allowed on the mailing list (the list may contain confidential information), and make sure they contact an op for access to #wikimedia-checkuser.

Arabic Wikipedia

Hi, Iam user Tarawneh [3] from ar wiki. I resigned from Bureaucrat, checkuser, and Sysop lists in ar wiki a few months ago, according to policy the other checkuser ar:user:chaos was removed from the checkuser list [4], now ar wiki has new checkusers, and hence no reason , by policy , exists to keep chaos away from his rights. I had a chat with Cary, he agreed and he advised me to post a request here.

  • Language Code: ar
  • previous request, and grant of rights for chaos: [5]
  • Local User Page: ar:User:chaos

Thank you. --Tarawneh 23:52, 13 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please ask him to contact Cary (cbass at wikimedia dot org) to provide some identification first. guillom 19:01, 17 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oversight access

Do not initiate an oversight request here. The Arbitration Committee will make the request once there is consensus on the local wiki (this process is currently for en-Wikipedia only).

Stewards: When you give someone oversight access, list them on Hiding revisions.

Removal of access

If you want to request that your own status be removed, please don't forget to place a note in English on your local user talk page. This is required to prove your identity. And then add the request here.

To request the removal of another user's status, you must gain consensus on the local wiki first. All discussion must be kept on your local wiki. When there is community consensus that the user's access should be removed, a trusted person from that wiki should provide a link here to the discussion, a very brief explanation of the reason for the request, and summarize the results of discussion.

ja:User:Gleam

He has sysopship and was/is inactive over 3 months. Accoding to ja:Wikipedia:管理者の辞任(de-sysopship),we request removal his sysops access. see the discussion ja:Wikipedia:管理者の辞任#管理者の自動退任. Thank you.--Bellcricket 03:30, 20 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Uzbek Wikipedia

Please remove Azim's admin status due to the lack of contributions in 2007. Since there's no active community in Uzbek Wikipedia, there is no discussion page. --Abdulla 15:13, 19 June 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Temporary permissions for emergency or technical purposes

If you are requesting administrator status to make a translation of the wiki interface, see also the BetaWiki project, which seeks to make a neutral MediaWiki translation that will then be default for all wikis. That is more useful than only making a local translation. You can ask questions in the IRC channel or in the mailing list. See also MediaWiki localisation.

Stewards: Currently active temporary permissions are listed at /Approved temporary. When granting a request, please copy the request to the appropriate section there, and clearly state the date of removal. Requests only need remain listed below for a few days, and may afterward be removed as long as they have been copied to the subpage.

Uyghur Wikipedia

I would like administrative access to the Uyghur wikipedia for the User Arken. There is only one other admin, and he claims to no little or no Uyghur.

Two other things that I think need help from a different place also need to be done. Can anybody redirect me to where I could ask about adding extra tabs as was done in the Kazakh Wikipedia (see kk.wikipedia.org). Also, we don't call our language: Oyghurque, where can I get help changing that.

  • Language Code:ug
  • Local Request Link:n/a
  • Local User Page:[11]

Thank you. --Arken (June 19 2007)


Cherokee Wikipedia

I request temporary sysop access for the User:Cherokeekid at the Cherokee Wikipedia. I would like to cosmetically clean up the main page, and delete spam. There are four other admins, but they are all inactive.

  • Language Code:chr
  • Local Request Link: [12] (Inactive)
  • Local User Page:[13]

Thank you. --Cherokeekid (June 18 2007)


Cherokee Wiktionary

I request Temporary Adminship (sysop?) access for the User:Cherokeekid in Cherokee Wiktionary. I would like to protect the main page, and make other parts of the site more Cherokee (Instead of English).

  • Language Code:chr
  • Local Request Link: None
  • Local User Page:Cherokeekid

Thank you. --Cherokeekid (June 15 2007)

Akan Wikibooks

SE Asia Wikibooks

Khmer and Myanmar Wikibooks have no active users, only the index.php spambot stuff to clean up. I volunteer to cleanup them, but need admin rights to be able to stop it maybe.

I am long-time admin on en-wp and th-wp. Ahoerstemeier 11:01, 12 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Tok Pisin Wikipedia and Wiktionary (neo-Melanesian language)

I request sysop access to revise, upgrade, and update the Tok Pisin Wikipedia and Wiktionary, both to reinvigorate the two, and as an active part of WikiProject Melanesia.  The only Tok Pisin administrator has been inactive there since 23 December 2006.

I have extensive professional (i.e., paid) experience in software development and programming, Internet and corporate intranet web design and server maintenance, and many years in technical writing.  I grew up in Polynesia (Hawai'i), and have sailed as a merchant mariner in Micronesia (Marshall Islands), Australia, Indonesia and the Philippines, and am very familiar with the cultures of Oceania.  I'd like to use my experience and technical abilities to help make the Tok Pisin Wikipedia and Wiktionary useful resources for both the Melanesian-region Tok Pisin community, and as my contribution to WikiProject Melanesia.

Thank you. K. Kellogg-Smith 12:29, 12 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Can you give me a better idea of what you'd do with sysop status on these two wikis? (eg. translate the interface, delete spam, etc.)--Shanel 04:00, 18 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Miscellaneous requests

Requests that don't fit in other sections belong here. Note that the following types of requests belong on separate pages: bot status, URL blacklisting and whitelisting, and requests for CheckUser queries.

Username change

I request that my username "pih:User:Annabelle Evans is a fucking fuck" on the Pitkern wikipedia be changed to "Goldzor". Reason: My current user name is offensive. To confirm that this is actually me, I will now post the code-word "snazzerpoo" on my user page on the Pitkern Wikipedia. Me, from Pitkern wikipedia 22:12, 13 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This user has been indef blocked on :pih. Pallmall 04:54, 17 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Username change

I request that my username on the Irish Wikipedia (ga.wikipedia), currently ga:User:RedHotHeat be changed to Estoy Aquí due to my current attempts to consolidate usernames across Wikipedias and sites in general (it is currently my name on es.wikipedia). I will now post the same message on my ga.wikipedia talk page, from the account, to confirm my identity. Thanks - 84.203.39.248 23:07, 14 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Already renamed by a local bureaucrat. MaxSem 10:52, 15 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Username change

I request that my username on the English Wikipedia (en.wikipedia), currently en:User:Loperco be changed to Haammbean. Loperco is my real name and I have since created a new account, en:User:Athene cunicularia to remain more anonymous. I will now post the same message on my en.wikipedia talk page, from the account, to confirm my identity. Thanks!65.163.206.82 17:11, 18 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The English Wikipedia has Bureaucrats who fulfill name change requests. You should request your name be changed at en:WP:CHU. Prodego Talk 21:16, 18 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Import group

Hey, I am en:User:TheFearow, and I am requesting that I am temporarily added to the "import" group on mediawiki.org. I want to help out with the many pages needing transferral from meta. I assume that I need a stewards help rather than a local bureaucrat, as adding to a diff group requires access to Special:Userrights (and thats steward-only, at least with the defaults on my wiki). Also, before someone says, I know you normally need Sysop, however mediawiki also has a seperate import group. Thanks! 125.236.192.172 12:25, 17 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Just a note, this is me. Thanks! TheFearow 21:29, 17 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Username change

I request that my username on the Danish Wikipedia (da.wikipedia.org), currently da:User:Eiby, to be changed to Jako1234. According to the article Right to vanish, I can have it changed, if it's my real name, which Eiby is. --Eiby 14:53, 19 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I see the Danish Wikipedia has local bureaucrats. Please ask one of them. --.anaconda 13:00, 19 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Username change

I would like my username on en.wikipedia.org en:User:Rhpearson changed to OctoMan1234. According to the Right_to_vanish I can have it changed as it is my real name. Already I can no longer login, so I want my name removed as I will no longer contribute to Wiki. Thank you kindly. 70.81.193.194 02:39, 20 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
