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.

Hi, After meeting in Thimphu, Bhutan, in June, there is a renewed commitment to developing Dzongkha Wikipedia and engaging local Dzongkha speakers to build an editing community. This involves engaging with community leaders and institutions and on this basis, we would like to nominate two Bhutanese individuals who are well-known to the wider community, who both speak and write excellent Dzongkha, and are experienced editors. We would like to ask that they be granted admin rights for a year in order to start the ball rolling. (It is going to take time, both work full time, so we think six months will be both too short and counterproductive). According to WMF figures, there are four people in Bhutan actively editing English WP and just 2 editing Dzongkha Wikipedia. Hence the small voting community.

many thanks for your consideration Doctor 17 (talk) 05:06, 25 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Doctor 17: There is no onwiki indication that they accept the nomination. If you can get that, then on an exception basis I will grant 6 months per MVR. 1 year is not possible at this time. -- Amanda (she/her) 07:16, 5 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Arcuscloud@bjn.wikipedia

Status:    Not done

Hello. This request is renewal for Administrator and Interface Administrator access. Ezagren (talk) 04:01, 10 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Ezagren, the request page does not seem to be linked from any other page. How have the voters found it? :) Please make a proper on-wiki announcement of the vote, either in the Village Pump or on the Administrators page, or at any other appropriate place. --Base (talk) 14:30, 14 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Voters find it via off-wiki community groups. Sorry for not linking to other page. Voting page is already linked to another page. Please check. Ezagren (talk) 13:47, 16 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Ezagren: I have to decline this request for several reasons. 1) As i've noted in just declining other requests, a discussion starting in May open until July is not appropriate. 7 or 14 days max. I understand a lot of votes are in July, and took that into consideration. 2) You also mentioned the votes were inappropriately canvassed off-wiki. 3) The user as far as I can see has not accepted the nomination. For these reasons, a new discussion is required. -- Amanda (she/her) 07:10, 5 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Radioamatoro@eowikiquote

Status:    Not done

Hello, I am here to request extension in my Adminship. I have been Admin of eo Wikiquote for a long time. I has requested renewal of adminship nearly 2 month ago and have received 4 positive votes, 0 negative, 0 neutral, what is even more than appropriate for the size of the community. Kindly, make the toolset more permanent so that, I don't have to ask again and again. - Radioamatoro (talk) 06:20, 1 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Radioamatoro: Just as I declined someone else below, your discussion is too old to be considered. Please open a new discussion for 1 week, or max 2 weeks. Also permanent adminship is subject to the rules at MVR. -- Amanda (she/her) 07:01, 5 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
A lot of burocrasy for a simple logical task OMG, I am a admin on eo-wiki for 3 years with +8 000 redactions and +4 000 new articles!!!!! Realy we need a new discussion? Radioamatoro (talk) 00:58, 6 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Currently, the Malay Wiktionary, especially under development of our Wikimedia Community User Group Malaysia (WCUGM), is having significant activity, especially regarding documentation of Malaysian indigenous languages, with workshops and editing competitions have and will be organized. To compensate this, a proper administration is needed. However, as of now, the current administrators are inactive, and there is no bureaucrats, causing maintenance, clean-ups and vandalism tracking especially difficult.

@PeaceSeekers: I can't accept your discussion. It has been open way too long. You need to meet MVR requirements within 1 wekk, 2 at most, or 4 if your community has a voted-on policy. 1 year of it being open is not a valid discussion. Please open a fresh one for a 7 day period. -- Amanda (she/her) 06:53, 5 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Forwarding the request to renew their temporary adminship. --WhitePhosphorus (talk) 12:30, 6 August 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.

Galessandroni@it.wikiversity

Status:    Not done

Hi, I need renewal of sysop and Interface admin on Italian Wikiversity. Thank you in advance. Giacomo Alessandroni let's talk! asd 17:16, 31 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Galessandroni: The requirements include that you have a discussion on your local wiki about this, open for 7 days. I don't see one easily and it's not linked in your request. Not done -- Amanda (she/her) 06:40, 5 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Okay @AmandaNP apologize me. I have forgotten this task. Shame of mine. Giacomo Alessandroni let's talk! asd 09:18, 5 August 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.

Support Support = 30; Oppose Oppose = 1 - 97%. Thanks,--Syunsyunminmin 🗨️talk 12:42, 4 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

 On hold pending signature. --Mykola 19:23, 4 August 2023 (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

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 RanZag@it.wikipedia
