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.

Our bereaucrat is not active so I have to make a request here. Please take action on this. Thank you. CyberTroopers (talk) 18:17, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It does not look like you have contacted your local crats via a talkpage message for this. Please attempt to do this first, as at least two of them are not that far into inactivity. -- Amanda (she/her) 13:33, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@AmandaNP I already had mentioned him in the nomination page as well as the voting page. There's no action from his regarding those. His last activity was on April 2023. I don't think he'll be online at the moment. I'll try to send a message on his talk page. CyberTroopers (talk) 18:49, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Ahhh sorry, I missed that. Either way, doing a talkpage message is good as pings can be missed/not work. -- Amanda (she/her) 02:24, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

De Wikischim@nl.wikinews

Status:    Done

I have been re-elected with two votes in favour and zero against. This time, could my assignment please be permanent (as it's usual on most other projects)? Otherwise I won't candidate myself another time once my adminship will again have expired, as I'm done with this bureaucracy. De Wikischim (talk) 09:15, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Done Granted for 2 years to expire on 2025-06-10. To prolong your (interface) adminship, please start another election a few days before your temporary access expires, and after a week post your request again to this page. Thanks.
I'm really sorry, but the global policy is very clear, we cannot give you a permanent flag in this case or make exceptions, which otherwise we would have to make for everyone, and that would go against the policies. I personally believe that if a user really needs the admin flag, they certainly have no problem submitting a single request once a year or every two years, as done by many users (most projects don't have permanent admins and a lot of users have 3-months or 6-months flag). I still gave you the flag for two years, even if the votes weren't many, since you've already had it previously --Superpes15 (talk) 00:31, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Permanent administrator rights / Several users@smnwiki

Status:    On hold

A vote was started on May 30th, 2023 to select permanent administrators for the Inari Sámi Wikipedia (smnwiki), which resulted in the following four users being elected:

These users have served as administrators on the Inari Sámi Wikipedia since the beginning, and they would like to be granted permanent admin rights. -Muotâ (talk) 21:37, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Per MVR, I don't know if the community can be considered large enough to have permanent administrator, and I was also looking at the stats. Waiting for some opinions before making a decision. Thanks :) --Superpes15 (talk) 00:38, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
MVR discussion
The Northern Saami Wikipedia has four permanent administrators (two are also bureaucrats). Inari Saami has fewer speakers compared to Northern Saami, but our Wiki community is larger and more active than theirs. Muotâ (talk) 09:53, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Percentage-wise the smnwp community is a more than good portion of the Inari Saami-speaking community onwiki and off; I think this needs to be taken into account as four permanent admins is approximately 1 permanent admin for each 100 speakers of the language. These rules have obviously been made for communities with tens of thousands of onwiki users with a larger community offwiki, but they fail to consider communities like the Inari Saami community, which hovers around 1000 (offwiki). -Yupik (talk) 11:41, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Probably because Northern Saami Wikipedia got their first bureaucrats in 2007 when MVR didn't existed yet and advanced permissions were handled more casually [1][2][3]. Once sewiki had own bureaucrats, they were able to elect permanent admins & bureaucrats regardless of the stewards minimum voting requirements. Johannnes89 (talk) 16:36, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I get that 15 years ago things were different. However, today all languages should be treated equally. If you decide against granting us permanent admin rights, you should remove permanent admin rights from all Wikis that no longer meet MVR. Muotâ (talk) 18:03, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Superpes: 22 "active" users per stats page, of which only 3 have 10 or more actions in the past 30 days, and 2/3 of admin logs (block, delete, protect) date 50 actions to last year. I'm of the opinion that this wiki is too small for permanent admins at this time. -- Amanda (she/her) 16:09, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
How large of a community would you require for a language community that has a total of 400 speakers offline? Seems off to judge a small wiki by what is required of the large wikis. -Yupik (talk) 16:49, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Offwiki has nothing to do with the amount of permanent administrators needed online. We only need consider onwiki activities. -- Amanda (she/her) 17:25, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Then take a look at what we have done since the wp has been created, not just the last month or this year so far. Right now the wiki is quieter than normal. School is out, people are out in nature. It will pick up again come fall. -Yupik (talk) 20:58, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
For instance, the reason for my recent sporadic activity on smnwiki is because I am busy translating the MediaWiki core into Northern Saami as part of a Wikimedia Norway project and into Skolt Saami otherwise. When we find another translator for the Northern Saami project, I will have time to once again be more active on smnwiki. -Yupik (talk) 21:02, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Just give these people the rights. I know @Yupik and @Seipinne, and they are completely trustworthy, experienced, and excellent Wikimedians. I don't know the other two people, but if they are in the same group, I trust them, too. I also looked at their contributions and they look fine. If the community trusts them, there's no particular reason to scrutinize it too much.
Amir E. Aharoni (talk) 17:11, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
We don't just "give these people the rights". We have to consider the fact that you trust them now, but say one of them goes rogue later. 3 people vote to remove, 3 people vote to keep (given there were only 5 people who voted in the original request). Now someone comes to the stewards, and they get mad because we won't remove the rights because the community isn't large enough to understand the abuse/have a proper vote. We continuously run into this problem with wikis trying to grow. So no, we won't just throw rights at users without meeting MVR. -- Amanda (she/her) 17:29, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
We are a small community. We all know each other, and we have worked together on a regular basis for years. I don’t know what problems you might have had with other Wikis, but that doesn’t necessarily apply to our case. Muotâ (talk) 17:43, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Sure, but it also doesn't mean you won't have problems down the road. We just don't want yet another occurrence of this happening. We've had at least 5 wikis with this issue in recent memory. -- Amanda (she/her) 17:54, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
How many speakers do the languages of those 5 Wikis have? We are a small community of about 450 speakers, where everyone knows each other very well. That's not the same as a Wiki community consisting of a few people out of thousands or millions of speakers. Muotâ (talk) 18:11, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I've been a permanent admin and bureaucrat on the Northern Saami wp for years now during which there have been (afaik) 0 complaints about me and my actions. And I would say that the other 3 stated above would make much better admins (and bureaucrats) than I have been so far. -Yupik (talk) 20:59, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with Amanda, we can give 1-2 years flags, but we shouldn't give permanent sysop flags there (the old project have permanent admins, who sometimes don't actually need the flag, only because in the past the MVR policy didn't exist). It's not about trust or about being a good sysop - but we have to respect the policies. We can't remove the flags in the projects in which these flags were granted in the past, because this policy was applied later, however we are still allowing temporary flags to new sysops in the projects with old permanent admins. I don't understand where the problem is in making a request every year or every two years, really, it doesn't seem like a problem at all (as well as on big wikis, where the flags are permanent, there are reconfirmation procedures anyway)! Thanks for your understanding Superpes15 (talk) 09:12, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Making a request every year or every two years is a complete and utter waste of everyone's time. You keep saying that permanent admin rights cannot be granted to small wikis as per MVR, but you never explain why. What’s the point in making people request admin rights over and over again? Muotâ (talk) 10:40, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The policy leaves plenty of room for interpretation. What is considered “large enough”? How many deletions, blocks, page protections, etc. does someone need to have in order to be granted permanent admin rights? Muotâ (talk) 11:13, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
No, respecting the policies is never a waste of everyone's time, is very sad to hear this to be honest. The flag process has been well thought imho, in order to be transparent, to have a supervision, and not to allow to give very long permissions when not needed (or when currently the project is not very big - so permits adapt to the current project situation). I already linked the stats and explained my thoughts. The policy says that the the definition of "large enough" is determined by the stewards, if you want we can open an internal discussion on the specific case, in any case in my experience (also being a former GS), the stats are indicative of a project not large enough to require permanent administrators. There is no fixed number, and rightly so, because many users could create and delete thousands of pages in a few days, saying that the project is large enough, but this should be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. I still don't see the problem here since, I repeat, even in many large projects there is a form of re-election (for example I'm a permanent admin on itwiki, who has local 'crats, but there is an annual reconfirmation). If there are problems with the policy, just open an RfC to change it, I don't understand why complain to those who execute it! Superpes15 (talk) 13:13, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
In the past stewards used to hand out admin rights like candy, but one only needs to go through the archives at RFC to find out why they stopped doing this. Too many of these early admins either went inactive very shortly thereafter, or they started acting like project dictators and blocking everyone who challenged their authority. Rschen7754 16:45, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I am well aware of this problem and understand the skepticism. I have a lot of reasons to think that in this case, the trust would be justified. Unlike some past admins who "came to help" without actually knowing the language and then took the wikis to weird directions, the requesters here know the language, and do very thoughtful and well-planned and organized work. Amir E. Aharoni (talk) 07:17, 12 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
While I understand per the collapsed section above that your think your community may be the exception to the rule, stewards don't go with exceptions to the rule, we act on established consensus as the community expects us to. You will need to obtain a global RfC consensus to allow stewards to override MVR should you wish for this to be considered. Barring that happening, we can either hand out extensions now, or do fresh elections down the road. The choice is yours. -- Amanda (she/her) 13:28, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
You can extend our admin rights now. There won't be new elections down the road. Muotâ (talk) 11:09, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Krol111@szl.wikipedia

Status:    Done

My 7th administrator permission grant. All allowed (requirement is over 500 edits) active users voted for. If you would like to support our project please grant access for 10 years or permanently. We have only one another volunteer administrator. My example access use cases are home page administration, page deletion for page movement using Pywikibot (in this moment I can't do my job), project protection. They are very serious. Please, give my request a serious consideration. Thank you! Krol111 (talk) 13:14, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

reviewing... — xaosflux Talk 13:39, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Done @Krol111 granting for 3 years; the community size is very low, and your community's decision to limit the discussion to such a minor subset of users doesn't allow for a wide consensus to be demonstrated. I understand this can be a bit annoying and hope this longer grant will help ease the process. You may extend in the future prior to the expiration to avoid a lapse. — xaosflux Talk 13:53, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Interface administrator access

See Interface admin for information about this user group.

  • If you are requesting adminship and the interface admin at the same time, you can file one request in administrator section and state you want interface adminship as well.
  • MediaWiki interface translations are done at translatewiki.net. Please do not request interface administrator access solely for that purpose; your request will be declined.
  • Since the end of 2018, all interface administrators are required to have two-factor authentication (2FA) enabled. Please, enable it before posting your request here.
  • 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 interface adminship.

  • Discussions should be open for seven days. Please request interface 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 interface adminship for specific tasks, please state for how long and for which tasks you need it. Otherwise stewards will decide whether to assign permanent interface adminship and the duration of interface adminship. See Steward requests/Permissions/Minimum voting requirements.

Kuldeepburjbhalaike@pawiki

Status:    Done
 On hold @Kuldeepburjbhalaike: this access requires Two-factor authentication to be enabled. You may complete enrollment of that at this page: w:pa:ਖ਼ਾਸ:Manage Two-factor authentication. Please advise when this is completed. As your admin access is temporary, this will likely be granted in tandem, expiring on 2023-11-22T23:16:48. Should you renew in the future, you could ask for both flags to be renewed at once. — xaosflux Talk 23:51, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @Xaosflux:, i have enabledthe 2FA on my account and yeah i will ask for renewal both the flags in future. KuldeepBurjBhalaike (Talk) 12:26, 12 June 2023 (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.

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.

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

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.

LittleWhites@it.wikinews

Status:    Done

This is kinda of a blunder. The user candidate himself and I gave a positive vote. After some time, I gave the user admin rights, thinking that was the actual election, but another user alerted me that was not the election. After opening the election procedure, the user has not been elected so his admin rights should be removed asap.--Mannivu · ✉ 06:58, 18 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
