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.

Quick navigation: Administrator | Interface administrator | Bureaucrat | CheckUser | Oversight | Removal of access | Miscellaneous | Global permissions

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.

Như Gây Mê@tlwikitionary

Wikitionary Tagalog currently has no sysop and no bureaucrat, I want to rebuild tlwt as well as prevent vandalism here (discussion has no votes, it's been 7 days Asia/Manila time, UTC+8) Halley luv Filipino ❤ 23:05, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Như Gây Mê: You have ~60 edits there and you're tl-2 speaker! What are the vandalisms that exist and that you would like to fix or prevent (that global sysops or steward cannot handle)? Thanks --Superpes15 (talk) 23:43, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Superpes15 ~60 edits doesn't say anything. I'm planning to develop this project beside cebwiki project. I'm currently living in the Philippines, although my Tagalog speaking is only tl-2, I'm trying to improve my Tagalog :) About the vandalisms, there's currently no vandalism there, but if there's some vandalism, I want to do fix or prevent it myself. :) Thanks Halley luv Filipino ❤ 03:04, 14 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Như Gây Mê: Thanks! I just want to understand why can't you improve the project without the sysop flag (what tasks can't you perform there to improve it)? Thanks Superpes15 (talk) 14:36, 14 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Superpes15 Personally, I don't want to ask anyone for too much help (especially GS), I only ask when it's really necessary. To clean up articles (especially articles unrelated to the project or spam). I can do it myself using tools of sysop :) Thanks Halley luv Filipino ❤ 10:23, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This is not a good reply honestly. Everyone should ask for help when needed, and working alone is outside of our principles of collaborative community, if you have seen spam or anything else you can easily report it to the GS. What is the reason you don't want to report to the GS? Yesterday I assigned you the flag for 3 months on another small project (but in that case you were a native speaker and had 2 supports from the local community) and what if a GS came there to help?

IJzeren Jan@vowiki

Greetings! Since my adminship at the Volapük Wikipedia is about to expire once again, I'd like to request permanent adminship or, if that's not possible, prolongation for as long as possible. Thanks in advance! IJzeren Jan (talk) 17:30, 16 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Done Granted for 2 years to expire on 2026-02-18. 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. --Superpes15 (talk) 07:26, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you very much! IJzeren Jan (talk) 21:51, 18 February 2024 (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.

Engr.ismailbhutta@skr.wikipedia

User:Engr.ismailbhutta is doing hard work to promote skr.wikipedia.org. He need Interface administratorship to change the interface. Previous I was interface admin there, but could not complete work in 3 months. Please give him rights for longer duration.--Ameen Akbar (talk) 20:19, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 On hold User contacted via mail for further details --Superpes15 (talk) 23:45, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Engr.ismailbhutta: Have you read my 2nd emails? Thanks Superpes15 (talk) 07:27, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, I have replied your 2nd email today, sorry for late, regards, Engr.ismailbhutta (talk) 10:59, 19 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Gerges@arwikinews

I need Interface administrator permission to add plugins to arwikinews.--Gerges (talk) 10:42, 19 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 On hold User contacted via mail for further details --Superpes15 (talk) 12:36, 19 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Gerges: Also, I see an opposition, and per MVR policy this requires a full discussion. Has this vote been discussed? Thanks. Superpes15 (talk) 12:38, 19 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Superpes15: I responded to an opposing person, but he still has his opinion.-- Gerges (talk) 12:58, 19 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @Superpes15, My opposition was to newcomer activity. Dear Greges is a new contributor to arwikinews (Vote has been created after two weeks' activity), and this is his first experience as interface-admin. Finally, the vote wasn't posted in the community village pump, nor the wanted plugins. Thx -Mohanad (talk) 13:47, 19 February 2024 (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. 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.
