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 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.

Info-farmer@tawikisource

See that my adminship expires on 2016-06-16. I need permanent adminship for ta.wikisource. I already submitted our community consensus--Info-farmer (talk) 11:45, 16 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Please provide a link to the community concensus. Also, we can't grant you a permanent adminship as the wiki is not big enough. --Stryn (talk) 16:09, 16 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Our community consensus is in the earlier request page. //big enough// To get permanent adminship, what should i do?--Info-farmer (talk) 06:47, 17 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Actually you need to make new announcement that you're running for adminship. According to active users list only 6 users have made more than 10 edits in last 30 days except you and the two bots which is not big enough to grant permanent access. Best, ~ Nahid Talk 08:56, 17 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Kindly excuse me. What are the requirements of a Tamil community contributor to get the permanent adminship?--Info-farmer (talk) 12:06, 17 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Well, this not about a specific community contributor. we will not grant permanent adminship when there is not an active local community. This practice is in force since quite a long time. Edit counts of those active users (I've mentioned) are: 801, 664, 190, 31, 23, 19 and 11. We'll happily grant the permanent adminship if community grows. so, again please start a new request and we'll grant the temp right if majority support your statement. You can renew them afterwards as long as necessary.Best, ~ Nahid Talk 18:21, 17 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

~MMGJ~@urwikibooks

Im an active user at urwikibooks. There are 0 admins, and we need little amount of admin(s) to fight vandalism. I want this access temporarily (only a month). --~MMGJ~ (talk) 11:28, 26 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Please make a local announcement nevertheless. --MF-W 16:48, 26 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Green Zero@testwikipedia

See my request at https://test.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests/Permissions/Green_Zero There are no active bureaucrats. — Green Zero обг 16:08, 28 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

RadiX is local bureaucrat. Maybe he can handle that over there. —MarcoAurelio 17:50, 28 June 2016 (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.

Emergency doc@dewiki

Thanks... --Emergency doc (talk) 06:56, 27 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

User signed the confidentiality agreement. @Emergency doc, NordNordWest, and Itti: to avoid past issues, can you confirm that this voting is right and that rights can be granted this time? Thank you in advance. —MarcoAurelio 17:55, 27 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The voting is correct, Emergency doc is definitely elected. NNW (talk) 17:56, 27 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, the voting is correct and you can give him the rights. Thanks for your work! --Itti (talk) 18:40, 27 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Done, oversight permissions granted. Thanks all. Best regards, —MarcoAurelio 18:43, 27 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

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.

Érico@global

Hello. I would like to resign as global sysop and global rollback. I intend to focus my time on the Portuguese Wikipedia. Thanks to everyone for their trust during these years. Érico (talk) 04:39, 27 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Thanks for your help so far. —MarcoAurelio 17:57, 27 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Former staff accounts@testwiki, test2wiki, mediawikiwiki

No longer useful as they have left WMF and their staff accounts are locked. Please also remove bureaucrat right of Cmcmahon(WMF)@test2wiki. GZWDer (talk) 08:24, 29 June 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
