Revision as of 15:55, 25 December 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.

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 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.

Jaba1977@kawikipedia

The following discussion is closed: Promotion performed locally

The community of Georgian Wikipedia has approved Jaba. Unfortunately, our local bureaucrat seems to be having a wikibreak, that's why I, as his representative, am asking for permission. --Gaeser 15:27, 16 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hm, what about this request? Is it still valid? --თოგო (D) 18:38, 18 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
It was done locally, see ka:special:listadmins. Kylu 14:34, 20 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
So..., archive this? J.delanoygabsadds 19:04, 21 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, please. Kylu 00:07, 22 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Žiedas@kvwikipedia

Hello! I want admin rights in Коми кыв Wikipedia because I can help for this.--Žiedas 11:06, 17 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please provide a link to the local election where the community approved you. --თოგო (D) 18:39, 18 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It is not that the local election links, as I noticed. I found one reference - Йитчӧм_портал --Žiedas 09:31, 19 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Have you discussed the matter with other kv.wikipedia users yet? With no discussion, there are no rights changes. Kylu 22:59, 20 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Not.--Žiedas 15:17, 21 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry, but you haven't asked the community there, are currently blocked on Lithuanian wiki, and have no experience with adminship that I can find (rollbacker does not count). This is marked as Not done. Kylu 22:08, 23 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Reality006@trwiktionary

Please start a local discussion with the other contributors first. Lacking active local sysadmins, stewards can perform administrative tasks for you on that project. Kylu 21:03, 20 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
There are now 3 supporting comments (including mine). Reality006 is already a Wikinews admin, and a trusted user. I strongly believe that granting him the tools for a provisional period (such as 6 months, it is up to your judgment of course) would benefit this top-4 project.--Vito Genovese 12:27, 22 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Done. To remove or reconfirm in 6 months. DarkoNeko 18:43, 24 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Bureaucrat access

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

Derbeth@en.wikibooks

Please remove bureaucrat and sysop rights from my account on en.wikibooks as I am unable to devote enough time to fulfill my duties. Derbeth 21:41, 23 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like somebody already has removed the flags. Thanks for your service! --Daniel Mayer (mav) 21:52, 23 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Note to volunteers: When archiving this, please file under "Removal of access" please. Kylu 22:01, 23 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sir Lestaty de Lioncourt@brwikimedia

Thanks -- @lestaty discuţie 01:11, 25 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Sir Lestaty de Lioncourt, are you president of WM BR (sorry, but I don't see on Wikimedia_chapters#Composition_of_chapters who is in the Board of the Association) or do you have permission for representing Brazilian chapter? LeinaD (t) 12:51, 25 December 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.

Smooth O@bs.wiki

Election done. --WizardOfOz 09:33, 22 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

User is not yet identified to the WMF. This needs to be done before access can be granted. I've posted information about the procedure at his talk page. --Erwin 09:42, 22 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Note: this user requested CU rights in last month: Steward requests/Permissions/2009-10#Smooth O@bs.wikipedia. LeinaD (t) 17:00, 22 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Note:Extended until 12-15-2009 even if there is no need. --WizardOfOz 19:54, 25 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for extending the vote. Policy is clear on this, you need 25-30 votes and 70-80% support for a checkuser election to be valid. 20 votes are not enough. See CU#Access_to_CheckUser. I hope that helps clarify matters, this is not a debatable point. ++Lar: t/c 19:23, 29 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Followup: It appears that the extension did not do much good, only one more vote was received, and that on 1 December. That's unfortunate... perhaps another extension and some publicity? ++Lar: t/c 19:56, 16 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, but I didn´t have a possability to wrote in last time by technical problems. If this is such a problem (even Dungodung sayed thats fine for him), I would like to give a link to another election, wich was maded on a much larger project without problems Lucas Teles. If there is still a problem I can extend again, and as you wrote make some publicity. --WizardOfOz 20:44, 16 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
You're correct in that the mentioned election does not meet the minimum requirements as stated for a general election, though pt.wikipedia isn't a completely accurate example for the situation: The request for checkuser assignment was given to us by a member of the pt.wikipedia ArbCom, which is one of the exceptions to the access to checkuser policy. You may wish to consider rescheduling your checkuser elections during a time of the year when people are not so busy, perhaps, to get greater turnout? Kylu 00:46, 17 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Extended again. We gonna make more publicity. Those 5 votes will be not a problem :) THX --WizardOfOz 10:32, 20 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Request from Seraphita

The following discussion is closed.

Incorrect venue. Please relocate this to RfC. Kylu 15:21, 19 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Great Thanks for all Wiki-s! An conflict is boing betwen Grigor Gatchev and Seraphita for pages with Opinion. Such pages d’ont exist in Wikinews in Bulgarian. The opinion of Grigor Gatchev is this page cannot be creating because of non enough people in this Wikinews. My opinion is this pages may attract more users. What is ours opinion? May we have such page for the bulgarian Wikinews? See More in User talk:Seraphita --Seraphita 11:16, 19 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to request comments on the situation, please do so by making a page at Requests for comment, not this page. Thank you. Kylu 15:21, 19 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I believe that what Seraphita requests for is an Opinions namespace, similar to that in the English, French and German Wikinews. Is it possible to create such a namespace in the Bulgarian Wikinews? -- Григор Гачев 22:49, 20 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Quite possible, but you would need to develop a community consensus first, then once consensus is reached you can fill in a request at bugzilla:. An example of this would be at bugzilla:6435. Kylu 22:55, 20 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you. -- Григор Гачев 17:51, 22 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Oversight access

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

If you're requesting the removal of your own status, make sure you're logged in to a global 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; the rights will not be restored by stewards once they are removed.

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-->

Derbeth@en.wikibooks

Please remove bureaucrat and sysop rights from my account on en.wikibooks as I am unable to devote enough time to fulfill my duties. Derbeth 21:41, 23 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Thank you for your work as a sysop and bureaucrat. --M/ 21:47, 23 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Lenka64@cswiktionary

Hi, since you placed this request without logging in ([2]), we need to confirm that you, the user placing the request, are really Lenka64@cswiktionary. If you have an SUL account, you can simply log in to that account here at Meta and sign your request to be desysopped. If not, please put a note on your userpage at cswiktionary confirming that you would like to be desysopped. Thanks — Dan | talk 21:01, 18 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, I agree with desysop. Thank you. --Lenka64 16:57, 22 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Done. Thank you for your work. --M/ 21:44, 23 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

FloNight@en.wikisource

Done and thank you!--Nick1915 - all you want 01:13, 21 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Nick1915, thank you. FloNight 01:30, 21 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Alexanderps@pt.wikinews

Please, remove my checkuser acess, after this discussion, the community don't trust in me. Thanks. Alex Pereira falaê 10:39, 22 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I've temporary removed Carlosar too per CU policy ("On any wiki, there must be at least two users with CheckUser status, or none at all."). And so sad for Alex, who has my best regards on CU matters--Nick1915 - all you want 11:35, 22 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, Nick. Thank you for your words... Alex Pereira falaê 12:13, 22 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

moyogo@fr.wiktionary

Hi ! This account belong's to Moyogo and he is yet not allowed to login with it. I have talk to him and he has confirmed that he can't use this account and that I can ask to delete it. Thanks a lot ! -- Quentinv57 09:52, 23 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Done Laaknor 17:09, 23 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you Laaknor -- Quentinv57 17:36, 23 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Barcex@eswiki

In accordance with the policy of Checkuser, please remove the flag. Thanks Taz0422 22:22, 23 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please clarify. I DO NOT see any link referring to a removal discussion. --M/ 22:26, 23 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Please set this on hold til I can contact the current checkusers. Thank you, — Dferg (disputatio) 22:27, 23 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Rejected. It's not eswiki policy to remove after 3 months of inactivity nor global policy specifies so (eswiki checkuser use follows the global policy for its work). es:Drini 22:36, 23 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Taz0422 seems to be a single-purpose account. Created the day before, adding this removal request seems to be its only relevant action [3]. I recommend it to be inspected for the master account. Platonides 00:41, 25 December 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:
