Revision as of 03:48, 16 August 2009

Shortcut:
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: 

====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.

ئاسۆ@ckbWiki

I request temporary sysop access in ckb. Currently I'm Sysop in kuWiki. I requested the new language ckb and now Current tasks in ckb are: correcting CSS and namespaces and uploading logo. I've created a local announcement. Thanks, ئاسۆ 09:56, 15 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Bureaucrat access

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

IvanLanin@ace.wikipedia

Status:    Not done

I request bureaucrat in ace as currently there's none there. I need bureaucrat access to approve bots, assign sysops, etc. I'm currently bureaucrat in id.wikipedia and is in process of inviting more contributors from Acehnese. I've known most of the active pioneers of ace from id.wp. Thank you. •• ivanlanin ♫ 10:30, 13 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I can't see you have had a voting about your bureaucrat access. You can't be given 'crat-access without a voting. Until a big enough community exists, the stewards will perform the work of giving sysop and bot-flags. Marking as Not done Laaknor 19:55, 13 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The voting is on progress. Isn't it too soon to say "not done"? •• ivanlanin ♫ 00:52, 14 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I would suggest you request only sysop permission. New projects should first have a few active users (including administrators) and than request a bureaucrat flag for one of them. On projects with no bureaucrats, users can request a bot flag on Steward requests/Bot status and for other permissions users can request here (Steward requests/Permissions). LeinaD (t) 01:16, 14 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Hello ivanlanin, You can request temp-adminship until there is a local community for a fair vote (most of the voters there right now have only the vote as contribution...), if You wish we can do this right here, for bots I would recommend to implement the bot policy, see Bot_policy/Implementation#How_to_implement_the_policy. Best regards, --birdy geimfyglið (:> )=| 21:36, 15 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

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.

Users: J.delanoy, Hersfold, Bjweeks@enwiki

Per election and Arbcom announcement [1] the following enwiki users need checkuser flags on their enwiki account once identified:

  • J.delanoy (identified)
  • Hersfold
  • Bjweeks (identified)

Thanks!

Oversight access

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

Users: Nishkid64, Avraham, Keegan, Howcheng, Dweller, Mr.Z-man, Hmwith, Happy-melon @enwiki

Per election and Arbcom announcement [2] the following enwiki users need oversight flags on their enwiki account once identified:

  • Nishkid64 (identified)
  • Avraham (identified)
  • Keegan (identified)
  • Howcheng (identified)
  • Dweller
  • Mr.Z-man
  • Hmwith
  • Happy-melon

Thanks!

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 -->
}}

Juliancolton@simplewiki

Status:    Done

Please remove my sysop rights at simplewiki. Thanks, –Juliancolton | Talk 18:18, 15 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

sysop flag removed Thanks for all your efforts --Mardetanha talk 18:41, 15 August 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:

Patrullroboten@sv.wiki

Status:    Done

I'm running a new robot on sv.wiki but need to get it confirmed/autoconfirmed. And impatient as I am, I would like not to wait four days. According to documentation on en.wiki administrators can set 'confirmed' but that does not seam to be the case on sv.wiki, neither our bureaucrats seam to be able to set the 'confirmed' flag. Can a steward help me? Fluff 14:30, 12 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Fluff, please make a note about this request on the local village pump. After that I grant you temporary permission. LeinaD (t) 21:09, 12 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
To speed things up, I have made that now. Fluff made this request to to swedish bureaucrats yesterday. -- Lavallen 04:36, 13 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Done, granted temporary for 4 days (expires 17 August 2009). LeinaD (t) 10:05, 13 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

SPQRobin @ new wikis

Please give me import and sysop access on the newly created wikis (ckbwiki, pnbwiki, mwlwiki, acewiki and trwikinews) to transfer the contents. Thank you, SPQRobin (inc!) 20:21, 12 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

ALL Granted please let us know when you are done --Mardetanha talk 20:53, 12 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
