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.

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 the position. Requests for removal of access belong in another section. Admins doing cross-wiki work may wish to see IRC/wikimedia-admin for information about joining #wikimedia-admin.

If you are requesting administrator status to translate the wiki interface, this should be done at the BetaWiki project instead (see mw:localisation). You can ask questions in the IRC channel or on the mailing list.

If you are requesting adminship to handle one-time vandalism incidents or clearing a deletion backlog, please see Vandalism reports and Steward requests/Speedy deletions.

Stewards
Currently-active temporary permissions are listed at /Approved temporary; copy granted requests to the appropriate section there, stating the date of removal in the section header and at the bottom of the request. Please invite new sysops to the admin IRC channel.
Archiving
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. Users who archive requests on that page, please check if the request was correctly added to the temporary subpage before removing it from this page.

For permanent sysopship please provide a link to the local community approval. For temporary sysopship please state for how long and for which tasks you need it, and link to a local announcement.


Ryuch@ko.wikisource

Status:    In progress

Thanks. Albamhandae 13:57, 17 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ko.wikisource has local bureaucrat. You should ask him for granting sysop right. LeinaD (t) 15:09, 17 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The last edit by the only crat on ko.wikisource was made in September 2007 and the last logged action of him in 2006. There seems to be no activity. Barras (talk) 15:18, 17 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I requested this because the localcrat has been inactive since September 2007. --Albamhandae 16:13, 17 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Have you at least tried to contact him (talk page, email)? --FiliP ██ 07:54, 18 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
He didn't leave an e-mail address on Wikisource, thus I cannot contact with him through the e-mail. --Albamhandae 12:03, 18 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
As said FiliP, first you should try contact him, leave a message on his talk page. If he didn't respond, we grant sysop right after week. Moreover I would suggest you organize a vote for removing his bureaucrat status. LeinaD (t) 12:23, 18 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I have just finished leaving a message on his talk page.[1] Last year, the removal vote of his bureaucrat status had been opened, and we determined to reject. [2] --Albamhandae 16:22, 20 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, we will wait until 27 October. BTW1. Maybe try again organize a vote? BTW2. Your bureaucrat was recently active on en.wiki. LeinaD (t) 18:10, 22 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

小躍@hak.wikipedia

Status:    In progress

I want to make Wikipedia's contributions in the Hakka wiki. Don’t encounter any destruction,so I work as time the Administrator, Can the management edition, the protection, delete the page and restore the page, and manage all users.--林躍錩 11:15, 26 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Also has a point. I may continue to do?--林躍錩 11:23, 26 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Bureaucrat access

See bureaucrat for information about the position. In principle, requests for temporary bureaucrat access are not granted.

CheckUser access

To request CheckUser information, see Meta:Requests for CheckUser information. This is the place to request CheckUser access. Note that temporary CheckUser access is not permitted and the temporary status is only used by Stewards.

Stewards
When someone asks for CheckUser status, please check the current policy before giving the status. There is an email template to request identification from the new CU. Do not grant CU access unless the user is identified to the Foundation. 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@lists.wikimedia.org so the listadmins know the person is allowed on the mailing list, and make sure they contact an op for access to #wikimedia-checkuser.

Oversight access

To request to have content oversighted
Ask in #wikimedia-stewards, or email oversight-l@lists.wikimedia.org for requests regarding English Wikipedia.
Note that this section is the place to request Oversight access. Note that temporary Oversight access is not permitted and the temporary status is only used by stewards.
Stewards
Do not grant Oversight access unless the user is identified to the foundation, which will be announced on the Identification noticeboard. When you give someone oversight access, list them on Oversight.

Removal of access

If you're requesting the removal of your own status, make sure you're logged in to a global account.

To request the removal of another user's status, you must gain consensus on the local wiki first. All discussion must take place 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 brief explanation of the reason for the request, and summarize the results of discussion. In either case, copy and paste the following text into the correct section (see instructions above). 

==== username@xxproject ====
{{sr-request
 |status    = <!-- don't change this line -->
 |domain    = 
 |user name =  
 |discussion= <!-- local confirmation link / local policy link -->
}}

Sysops@huwikipedia

Status:    In progress

The community opted for a new rule in hu.wikipedia – voted and approved here –, that any sysop with less than 10 actions in the last 12 months or no action at all in the last 6 months must be desysopped. There will be a grace period of 3 months starting from September 28, 2009 for inactive admins to reactivate themselves.

But from all the sysops in this condition, 2 had specifically indicated that they have no time for WP at the moment & for the near future, namely:

So please remove their sysop rights. Thx. Bennó 20:30, 6 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

To confirm that Dhanak didn't want to retain his sysop rights: [3].
That one done, waiting for confirmation of NCurses's resignation. Kind regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 17:02, 10 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

borgx@idwikipedia

Hi.. Please remove all my adminships on id.wikipedia and other projects. (Please see this). Thank you. Borgx 08:28, 26 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Done. LeinaD (t) 10:09, 26 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Erasoft24@frwiki

Status:    Done

Colocho@frwiki

Status:    Done
Done. LeinaD (t) 11:53, 26 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Miscellaneous requests

Requests that don't fit in other sections belong here. Import rights can be granted by stewards only, not bureaucrats, so the automatic list of local bureaucrats is irrelevant for this. Please gather community consensus before placing a link to the discussion here.

Note that the following types of requests belong on separate pages:

MacMed@simplewikibooks

Status:    Done

Consensus seems to have formed; please grant MacMed the import right. Thanks, Pmlineditor ∞ 17:48, 21 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Granted. --Daniel Mayer (mav) 13:45, 24 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
