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.

Status:    On hold

Good day! Not if you could extend the term of my administration in the Tatar Wikibooks another 3 months. --MalTsilna 13:52, 8 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hello MalTsilna. Can you please post an advisory notice on the local village pump first? - Even if there's no community it's the standard procedure. I see that you've been granted 6 months temp. adminship this time, therefore we can grant you temp. adminship for another 6 months. Regards, -- Dferg ☎ talk 17:40, 8 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
OK! I'll try to do it, but so far I have exams and I need some time to get it all organized. --178.204.149.67 19:30, 10 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
 On hold for a week since the vote started yesterday.

Bureaucrat access

Admin and bureaucrat on eo.wp and most eo.wikimedia.projects, I ask for bureaucrat rights on just born eo.wikisource --Arno Lagrange ✉ 13:29, 19 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

There is almost no community, your request just started and has no imput so far. It is possible to gain admin status, but bureaucrat status on such small and new wikis is usually unneeded. On hold for at least a week until there is some input. Then we may grant admin access, but most likely no bureaucrat access. -Barras 13:46, 19 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I actually am bureaucrat on eo.wp eo.b eo.wikt and eo.q. I feel all the Esperanto Wikimedia projects as a set. We don't have as strong communities on sister projects as on eo.wp, but some times eo.wikipedians are contributing to other projects. Bureaucrat access to grant sysops could be useful, when somebody asks. --Arno Lagrange ✉ 20:48, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
If someone asks for a flag, stewards can grant it after an election. -Barras 20:56, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I feel it is a bad idea to have a single user locally who can make admins ad hoc. Stewards are best suited to such an incident so I'd have to object to bureaucrat access unless the local project warranted at least two. fr33kman 22:25, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Not done The request rightly exists in the admin section above so it's not appropriate to leave this open. fr33kman 22:32, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

CheckUser access

Steward requests/Permissions/CU-header

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.

Ra'ike@dewikipedia

The de.wp-community has approved Ra'ike as Oversighter according to the local policy as replacement for Superbass (see archive). the user is identified:

Removal of access

<translate>

  • 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 [[<tvar name="self-discussion">Talk:Steward_requests/Permissions/2011#Self_requests</tvar>|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 [[<tvar name="crat-rem">Bureaucrat#Removing_access</tvar>|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 [[<tvar name="aar">Admin activity review</tvar>|Admin activity review]] applies.
  • See the [[<tvar name="usage">#Using this page</tvar>|instructions above]] for adding new requests. Please post new requests at the bottom of the section.</translate>

Nabla@enwiki

Status:    On hold

I don't know if I am allowed to request this, but I think an admin account may have been compromised. An IP vandalized en:WP:VP [1], and then an admin account comes out of a two-year retirement claiming to be the IP [2] and using bizarre edit summaries like "this IS funny". All this makes me think it is a compromised admin account. --Reaper Eternal 15:54, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This needs to be firstly taken to an en checkuser for confirmation (if possible) and then action can be decided. Maqybe ask someone from en ArbCom also? fr33kman 15:57, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Since it is being acted upon by folks like on en:WP:AN, we'll let the decision come to a close on en and then someone can ping us if an action is agreed upon. fr33kman 16:00, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, I found that NuclearWarfare filed en:Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case#Nabla, so the arbiters should see it soon enough and decide. Reaper Eternal 16:03, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Then the stewards will wait for instructions from ArbCom then. fr33kman 16:19, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Rutrus@eswikibooks

Requesting removal of the administrator and bureaucrat flags. User has been inactive (no edits/log actions) for more than 2 years. According to our local policy administrators that have been completly inactive for 2 years will have their rights removed. Thank you, -- Dferg ☎ talk 13:23, 19 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
