Obtaining a cloak

Cloaks can be requested via sending the following private message: /msg wmopbot cloak and follow the instructions given. Please submit only ONE request. Submitting duplicates may cause your request to be rejected

If you do not have a freenode account, you must set one up first. Our project cloaks are only issued to users who meet the following criteria:

• User must have a verified e-mail address (throwaway/disposable emails are not acceptable)
• User must have at least 250 edits on Wikimedia projects
• User must have a Wikimedia project account registered for at least three months
• User must not be actively blocked from a project

The requirements are designed to prevent abuse of cloaks around freenode. It is hoped that the vast majority of the time they won't prevent genuine contributors from getting cloaks, but in the meantime while waiting to meet these requirements it is pointed out that unaffiliated cloaks can be acquired from freenode staff by asking staff listed on /stats p. Wikimedia Foundation staff are automatically exempt from the requirements for edit count and account age.

Please note that you will only be contacted by a group contact if there are questions or issues regarding your request. If your cloak is set you will not be notified.
