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. Minimum voting requirement are listed here.

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 this is for multiple users, leave this field blank and give a list of these users 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.

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.


Wintereu@rowikivoyage

Actually 12 February, 22:27 (UTC), to be more precise. Then, and only then, would have passed the recommended 15 days. Wintereu 13:38, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Bobbyshabangu@ss.wikipedia

Status:    In progress

I want to be an administrator on the SiSwati Wikipedia. I want to have have access to protected pages such as the landing page so that I can organize, clean and rename some of the items since SiSwati is my mother tongue and I have been contributing to this wiki for some time now. Bobbyshabangu (talk) 02:28, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Please make a local request to allow for possible community input. Savhñ 10:05, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
We now have a request at ss:Wikipedia:Likhefi_leinthanethi#Administrator. On hold until 9 February, I guess? ;-) --MF-W 14:05, 2 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed; on hold until February 9. MBisanz talk 13:15, 3 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Munirjohn@tgwiktionary

Status:    Not done

Filing here per request on my talk page; user does not sufficiently understand the interface here to use this page. – Ajraddatz (talk) 00:39, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Also noting that I have some concerns with the request, including a) obvious canvassing, b) an apparent unfamiliarity with the mediawiki interface, and c) the current block on the candidate's homewiki. I don't have time to look into this much, but I wanted to list these concerns even if they may be insignificant to the ultimate granting of the permissions. – Ajraddatz (talk) 00:58, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Not done per voting. – Ajraddatz (talk) 08:25, 8 February 2017 (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.

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.

Merlissimo@de.wikipedia

Status:    In progress

Due to the policy at de:wp every bureaucrat has to be re-elected after two years. Merlissimo's last re-election was two years ago and he didn't start a new run. Please remove his bureaucrat flag but not the admin flag. NNW (talk) 11:15, 8 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Adalingio@it.wikipedia

Status:    On hold

Please remove my sysop flag, thanks :-) --Adalingio (talk) 17:24, 8 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

on hold for 24h, per standard practice. einsbor talk 10:43, 9 February 2017 (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
