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:

==== Username@xxproject ====
{{sr-request
 |status    = <!--don't change this line-->
 |domain    =
 |user name =
 |discussion= 
}}

Administrator access

Steward requests/Permissions/Sysop-header


Gusta@pt.wikivoyage

Confirmed for permanent adminship. Notice that some user did not used the template for support. Best regards! Gusta (talk) 00:36, 28 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I am not sure that there is a consensus for this. Ruslik (talk) 15:50, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
One against, five want me as administrator. Gusta (talk) 15:58, 1 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Geoleplubo@pcd.wikipedia

requesting a extention of my administrator status (25 December 2012 --> 25 march 2013) for maintaining pcd.wikipedia. Geoleplubo (talk) 22:02, 28 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Did you put a local notice? I can see just a request made on Jan 11. --Vituzzu (talk) 21:14, 29 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I ask for a vote on december 15 and the community is about the same... It is necessary to do a new vote ? What is a local notice ? thanks Geoleplubo (talk) 01:18, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
This means that you would inform on the wiki that the temporary status expired and that you wish to renew it. --MF-W 16:20, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I put a local notice on w:pcd:Wikipédia:Adménistrateu; Geoleplubo (talk) 21:54, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
 On hold until 7 April. Ruslik (talk) 06:26, 1 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Base@uk.wikinews

I have a temporary admin flag at uk.wikinews now I want to make it permanent (or at the worst case to continue temporary). See also voters' editcounts. Thanks in advance. --Base (talk) 18:34, 29 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Well, but what percent of support votes should have user to promote? During previous nomination you had vote count 11-3 (78%) (with 1 oppose from one active user) and get temporary sysopship and now you have 8-4 (67%) (with 3 opposes from active users) and want to have permanent sysopship. P.S. You provide edit count at this moment, but some users made their edits after their voting. I.e. SteveR had only 6 edits at the moment of voting.--Anatoliy (talk) 18:46, 29 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
At the last vote there was only one active user, so your argue is not valid. Also let stews decide what to do, you have already voted. --Base (talk) 21:15, 29 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
There's definitely not a sufficient background for permanent, there's maybe one for temporary, anywa I'll let another steward decide since I've just declined your request for bureaucrat access. --Vituzzu (talk) 21:11, 29 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Not done per Vito above. There is not enough support to grant permanent adminship here, plus the community is still not big enough to grant permanent adminship (people comming from ukwiki just to vote cannot really be considered as members of Wikinews community). Sorry, -- Quentinv57 (talk) 09:21, 1 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

hello everybody. actually speaking, permanent adminship is not so badly needed there... it seems that temporary admins are inclined to work more and really use the flag they have ;) thus, if permanent one is not possible, for how long can you extend Base's temporary adminship? the project is revived, and it needs constant attention (reacting "in time" is really important for the project, as news is news for a very short period of time, and it is crucial that there is someone to see that a new article is published, posted to the right section and so on and so forth), thus an active admin is needed indeed --antanana 13:01, 1 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Alan.lorenzo@es.wikivoyage

Alan.lorenzo has been selected as the first permanent administrator of Wikivoyage. Per local consensus, he is also to be given bureaucrat permissions. — ΛΧΣ21 02:30, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Done - Def. enough support for permanent adminship. It seems like there is appropriately enough support & community size for granting bureaucrat rights as well, especially since this is customary on es-projects. --MF-W 08:03, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Bureaucrat access

Steward requests/Permissions/Crat-header

Base@uk.wikinews

See the discussion. See also voter's editcounts. It is probably not enough but should be posted here for logging. We need a local 'crat to serve sysopship requests and easyly grant bot-flags. Using meta-wiki is difficult for a lot of users because of language barrier and other thinks. --Base (talk) 18:47, 29 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Really? Какой языковый барьер? Здесь как минимум три стюарда понимают русский. Если есть какой-то сложный вопрос, можно обраться к ним.--Anatoliy (talk) 20:59, 29 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Not done uk.news has, anyway, a very small community, temporary flags managed here are better. --Vituzzu (talk) 21:06, 29 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

CheckUser access

Steward requests/Permissions/CU-header

Horus@thwiki

The Arbitration Committee of Thai Wikipedia has appointed User:Horus to be the CheckUser of Thai Wikipedia. The user has been informed of the identification process. G(x) (talk) 08:56, 1 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

 On hold awaiting user identification. -- Quentinv57 (talk) 09:02, 1 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
send the ID instructions to both users, please note that the CU rights of User:Octahedron80 should be restored once at least 1 CU is elected. Trijnsteltalk 17:03, 1 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

พุทธามาตย์@thwiki

The Arbitration Committee of Thai Wikipedia has appointed User:พุทธามาตย์ to be the CheckUser of Thai Wikipedia. The user has been informed of the identification process. G(x) (talk) 08:56, 1 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

 On hold awaiting user identification. -- Quentinv57 (talk) 09:02, 1 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
send the ID instructions to both users, please note that the CU rights of User:Octahedron80 should be restored once at least 1 CU is elected. Trijnsteltalk 17:03, 1 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oversight access

To request to have content oversighted, ask in #wikimedia-stewards, or, for requests regarding English Wikipedia email oversight-en-wp@wikipedia.org. This 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

<translate>

  • 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 [[<tvar name="self-discussion">Talk:Steward_requests/Permissions/2011#Self_requests</tvar>|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 [[<tvar name="crat-rem">Bureaucrat#Removing_access</tvar>|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 [[<tvar name="aar">Admin activity review</tvar>|Admin activity review]] applies.
  • See the [[<tvar name="usage">#Using this page</tvar>|instructions above]] for adding new requests. Please post new requests at the bottom of the section.</translate>

Miscellaneous requests

Steward requests/Permissions/Misc-header

Base@ukwikinews

I'd like to continue (to the maximum possible term) my importer rights in ukwikinews. I've done several imports there and probably I will do it in the future too (mostly we need some templates importing). I've made a confirmation vote, see also voters' (and mine) editcounts. Oppose argues was more against me as a sysop that as an importer. Thanks in advance. --Base (talk) 18:57, 29 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Is not it easier to configure import sources for the interwiki import? Ruslik (talk) 13:27, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
We had a discussion about enabling transwiki-import, that was what I wanted, but community didn't support it. I can start one more discussion about it if you wish. But xml-import allows me to import from any wiki what is in some cases useful. --Base (talk) 13:32, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
There is no need to enable transwiki import. You just have to set up sources. I don't see how the community could not agree with setting up transwiki import sources and feel comfortable with having a user holding the permissions of importing files. There is absolutely no risk with setting up sources while a bad use of the file import can be quite dangerous. -- Quentinv57 (talk) 09:09, 1 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
