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.

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.

Gaurav Jhammat@pa.wikipedia

Status:    In progress

(I am editing Punjabi Wikipedia for last three years. I have done my work with full passion and honesty.

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.

Roger Davies@enwiki

Status:    Done

I'd like to resign the CheckUser and Oversight permissions please with immediate effect. I'm not really using either permission and I have so little spare time at the moment that things are unlikely to change in the foreseeable future. Many thanks,  Roger Davies talk 16:05, 1 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

In progress…, @Trijnstel and Barras:, could you please use your magic with CU list and Roger's CU-wiki account? Thank you in advance, einsbor talk 22:02, 1 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The mailing list and CU-wiki issues were addressed, is everything else complete? Risker (talk) 00:58, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
It still requires IRC stuff if he's had access there. But on our part this is Done —MarcoAurelio 09:24, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Roger never used IRC. Risker (talk) 00:28, 6 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Otto Normalverbraucher@dewiki

Status:    In progress

As per local policy, has not started a re-election process within 30 days as requested by a quorum of 25 members of the community, the period of 30 days has ended yesterday (de:Wikipedia:Adminwiederwahl/Kurzstatistik), dewiki-bureaucrats cannot remove sysop rights. -- Dschungelfan (talk) 22:00, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Otto Normalverbraucher says, he is perfectly alright with the removal of his sysop rights because an active sysop needs to be on top of the developments within the community which he says he isn't.--Aschmidt (talk) 22:10, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
As more than 24 hours have elapsed, I just would like to give a ping to further the progress of these three requests from dewiki.—Thx.--Aschmidt (talk) 12:26, 8 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Please Remote these rights! --2003:70:4F2A:7D00:31A4:8F30:9349:26EF 16:17, 8 September 2016 (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

昏君@zh.wikiquote

Status:    In progress

Request to be importer. 1 support, 0 oppose, discussion should end on 9 September. LCtalk 15:46, 3 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Where are you going to import from? Ruslik (talk) 17:40, 3 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Ruslik0:All zh wiki projects: zh.wp, zh.wikt, zh.wn, zh.wb, zh.ws. LCtalk 11:45, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I can assign you transwiki right. You will be able to import from the above mentioned sights except Wikinews. Ruslik (talk) 19:53, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Ruslik0:Why is Wikinews excluded? And is there any differences between Transwiki-importer and importer? LCtalk 11:59, 6 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Because zhwikinews is not among the import sources defined for zhwikiquote. (See wgImportSources) The importupload is permission insecure and is rarely granted. Transwiki is much safer. Ruslik (talk) 20:36, 6 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Ruslik0:Ok thanks. LCtalk 08:36, 8 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Just a question, am I able to import articles to other wiki projects with Transwiki rights? And @MarcoAurelio and Barras:please deal with this request. LCtalk 08:52, 8 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
