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: 

 and also mistakes. Thank you.

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.

Gnangbade@kbp.wikipedia

Status:    On hold

User:Gnangbade who is main contributor of recently opened kabye wikipedia expressed wish to became a sysop. I saw it, support and placed request here as User:Gnangbade probably do not know all the bureaucracy how to get sysop status. Hugo.arg (talk) 14:27, 7 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

User:Gnangbade was an active and responsible test-admin when this project was in Incubator. Gnangbade can be started out with six months if RfA is approved locally. StevenJ81 (talk) 14:35, 7 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
On hold until 10 Sept. – Ajraddatz (talk) 17:09, 7 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Feipìn@lijwiki

Status:    Done

(I am requesting admin rights for Feipìn for a full year. He was already administrator once back to 2008, when he was active as F. Noceti. He did a brilliant job at the time as he is also knowledgeable of IT skills. We met lately and he decided to support my admin activity. We are very few people on Wikipedia Ligure, unfortunately, while most active users voted for him on https://lij.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators/candid%C3%A6 ) Luensu1959 (talk) 14:56, 5 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

They will need to start a request on the local community discussion page, and after a week (even of no comment) we can grant access. – Ajraddatz (talk) 17:23, 7 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

We already did it by posting on the "Pòrtego da comûnitæ" last August 24. The first item on our Ligurian community discussion page is titled "Eleççioin à amministratô". The first paragraph was posted by our leading admin called Giromin Cangiaxo, the second by me (Luensu1959) at a later date, and the third was posted by Feipìn(discuscioin) 06:21, 24 Ago 2017 (UTC). Correspondingly, users/members voted on the page indicated above. Luensu1959 (talk) 08:41, 9 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It was just a wrong link: you should use discussion=:lij:Wikipedia:Administrators/candidæ instead of pointing to an usertalk. While I see some votes from people with a few local activity I think there's a fair consensus in renewing/assigning these 1-year adminships. --Vituzzu (talk) 09:25, 9 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Пугачов Иван Петрович@xal.wikipedia

Status:    On hold

I ask to give administrator rights in Kalmyk Wikipedia. Пугачов Иван Петрович (talk) 20:44, 7 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Пугачов Иван Петрович: Please start a local discussion on the Village pump or some central location in your wiki and link it here. We can grant the permission after a week based on the discussion--Shanmugamp7 (talk) 06:01, 8 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Shanmugamp7: And I have already made a request, here. Пугачов Иван Петрович (talk) 07:28, 8 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
 On hold till 15 September --Shanmugamp7 (talk) 09:35, 8 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I'm in no position to comment at the local wiki. But I will point out that there are indefs on this user at four wikis under two different user names (User:Пугачов Иван Петрович and User:Пугачов Иван). That is, of course, not an automatic reason to decline this request, but I assume the stewards would wish to be aware of the situation. StevenJ81 (talk) 16:24, 8 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Athena in Wonderland@mwl.wikipedia

Status:    Done

Hello, I'm an active user of Portuguese version of Wikipedia, and I always try my best to help contribute with the Mirandese and Portuguese versions, collaborating on the articles, recommendations, templates and also in other Wikimedia projects. The tools would be very useful to help in the editions of the protected domains, in the fight against vandalism, in the pages of elimination and in other administrative activities. Unfortunately, the Mirandese version of Wikipedia has only one active administrator, in my request for adminship there is no against votes and have 1 support vote. Currently, there are few editors in the Mirandese version to judge and vote, that's why I'm request here. I ask to the community to evaluate me to see if I am qualified, greetings and good editions to all. Athena in Wonderland (talk) 12:02, 9 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Done Granted for 3 months to expire on 2017-12-09. -- Shanmugamp7 (talk) 17:28, 9 September 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.

PhiLiP@zhwiki

Status:    Done

I'd like to resign from my current position as a bureaucrat in protest of the recent unblocking decision of 守望者爱孟 and the continuous and massive cyberbullying over certain victims since ~2014 - for example, AddisWang, 乌拉跨氪 and Zhxy519 - from him and his supporters. PhiLiP (talk) 16:54, 7 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

 On hold for 1 day per standard practice. RadiX∞ 20:59, 7 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Done - I've removed your bureaucrat access. – Ajraddatz (talk) 16:21, 8 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Ajraddatz: Thanks. But please remove the admin access too. --PhiLiP (talk) 17:56, 8 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Done! Thanks for your work. – Ajraddatz (talk) 18:00, 8 September 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
