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.

Dark Eagle@ltgwikipedia

Status:    In progress

Still no voted bureaucrats --Dark Eagle (talk) 13:31, 26 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. Did you put a local request for adminship ? -- Quentinv57 (talk) 13:46, 26 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I had admin permissions last 1 year... but our community still don't voted any bureaucrats because we don't have needed activity --Dark Eagle (talk) 19:00, 27 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Quentinv57's question should be interpreted as "Have you again requested of the community for admin rights to continue?" Once you have done that, we will wait about a week to judge the opinion of the community to your request. — billinghurst sDrewth 15:53, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
No request has been made at ltg: to your community requesting this right be granted. Please make that request, as without the request we cannot progress this request. — billinghurst sDrewth 05:01, 2 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Mvkulkarni23@mr.wikisource

Status:    Done

Would like to request permanent sysopship for Marathi Language Wikisource. The local request was placed on 16th May 2012 at above given link at current central discussion page at mr wikisource .Undersigned is already admin at mr wikipedia. I am core team member for wikisource and developed and created basic setups. I have contributed more than 100 articles in Wikisource and support new members for marathi language WMF wikis. Leading as Pune SIG for all wikipeia activities for Wikimedia chapter for Wikipedia and wikisource. Thanks and Regards Mvkulkarni23 (talk) 18:11, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

granted Existing permissions have been granted as temporary and for 6 months, with there being no comment, I am only inclined to replicate existing practice.[2] — billinghurst sDrewth 05:09, 2 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Doãn Hiệu@vi.wikibooks

Status:    Done

Doãn Hiệu's term on Vietnamese Wikibooks is going to expire and he has requested of the community for another one. Because he is not proficient in English, I am here in his behalf. All of us agree, but we find it inconvenient to start a local discussion anew. AmieKim (talk) 15:09, 30 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

extension for 12 months key contributor at wiki, election by contributors, though low rate by active users indicates that extension of temporary, rather than permanent. — billinghurst sDrewth 11:10, 2 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

User Man2fly2002@arcwikipedia

Status:    In progress

(your remarks) Man2fly2002 (talk) 04:28, 31 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Man2fly2002. The system tells me you don't have any advanced rights over arcwiki. Can you please explain us which services do you want from us? Thank you. —Marco Aurelio (audiencia) 10:14, 31 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Please I want you to upgrade my account so i can work to improve the arc.wikipedia.org and i am asking this because one of the Administrators at arc.wikipedia (334a@wikipedia) ask me to apply here for more rights over the arc.wikipedia thank you.
Hello, first, you need to let your local community know that you want to be an administrator. (You can post your request on Village Pump or another page where people can see, so they can discuss). After some time (usually 7 days to 14 days), if other editors at arcwikipedia shows support, you can ask us again and you will become an administrator. Do remember to give us the link to the local discussion. Regards. Bencmq (talk) 03:31, 1 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Bill william compton@hif.wikipedia

Status:    In progress

I'd like to nominate myself for the adminship on Fijian Hindi Wikipedia. The community is very small and have very few active members. Project doesn't have many important MediaWiki pages, users utility gadgets, and speedy deletion requests remain unheard for shockingly six months. This type of idleness cannot attract new users.
Question to reviewing steward: Can I be a permanent? There's too much inactivity (recent changes is a good illustration) so I don't expect anyone to !vote for my request. What could possibly a solution to it?--Bill william compton (talk) 14:22, 1 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Bill. Sure, we just need to wait at least one week to check if there is some comments on this discussion. As fore the permanent status, we prefer not to grant it to new sysops on projects without community because it ends to leave the project with tons of inactive sysops. Plus it's a good way to check if the local community still has trust in the sysop and if no abuse has been committed. Best regards, -- Quentinv57 (talk) 14:32, 1 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Oh! that's completely understandable. I hope I'll prove myself worthy :) --Bill william compton (talk) 04:09, 2 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Eseki@meta.wikimedia

Status:    Not done

Thank you pliase, Eseki :08:55,2 June 2012 (UTC)

Not done. a) Meta has local 'crats and a local RfA page see Meta:Requests for adminship; b) You fail to satisfy the requirements of the Meta adminship policy; c) You are not experienced enough; d) You seem to struggle with basic wiki syntax. Sorry. Snowolf How can I help? 10:34, 2 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Bureaucrat access

Steward requests/Permissions/Crat-header

CheckUser access

Steward requests/Permissions/CU-header

Oversight access

To request to have content oversighted, ask in #wikimedia-stewards, or email oversight-en-wp@wikipedia.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.


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>

Aventicum@nl.wikiquote

Note : This section won't be automatically archived by the bot

Status:    Not done

Aventicum has not been active on nl.wikiquote since April 5, 2012, when he shortly returned from a yearlong absence. We have tried to contact him several times after that without response. An official proposal was launched in q:nl:Wikiquote:De kantine on May 7, 2012 to end his moderator/bureaucrat-status. There 3 votes for and none against. Again no response from Aventicum himself. Whaledad (talk) 18:00, 21 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Done; please thank him for his work. PeterSymonds (talk) 18:22, 21 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, but you have acted prematurely. A proper demod procedure has not been followed on this wiki, nor based on any accepted policy (there is no inactivity rule on this wiki), the persons involved were not notified per email function there was a procedure going-on. A decision by 3 persons is not a decision. People involved can hardly be described as Wikiquodians and have a history of troubles on Wikipedia. I ask a steward to reverse this action Aventicum (talk) 20:11, 23 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
(answered as a regular user, not as a steward) I think I have to agree with this. Walter (another admin on nl.wikiquote) was just as inactive as Aventicum - even more! - and he wasn't even informed about a possible removal. To me it looks like they want to "get rid of" Aventicum there, see also this response of mine. Trijnsteltalk 20:15, 23 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Not done I restored Aventicum's flag since a "not so active" sysop cannot damage a project. Please make a better and longer procedure and then (if necessary) ask for tool removal again. --Vituzzu (talk) 13:52, 25 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, but you have not restored the bureaucrate flag. Aventicum (talk) 20:43, 25 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
The restore should be handled by local 'crats, given there are active 'crats on the wiki. Both the admin bit and the crat bit. Snowolf How can I help? 21:07, 25 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
That is absolute not true! I (and the other people) don't have a history of trouble on Wikipedia!! Aventicum is a promoter of copivio and nonsens and a danger for the project. How do we get rid of this moderator? Nobody knows were he or she came from. (out of the air?) There was never any election. Nobody knows him or her. He or she was there out of the bleu promoting copyvio and other nonsens. Please revision. Best regards, Sir Statler (talk) 15:22, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
"Nobody knows were he or she came from. (out of the air?) There was never any election." ~ that's not true (original request). Trijnsteltalk 19:43, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
"There was never any election." Is absolutely 100% the truth, as your link to the Original Request clearly shows. Moreover, Aventicum complaints that "[...] the persons involved were not notified per email function there was a procedure going-on.": an email could not be sent as at that time the email function for Aventicum was not active. "A decision by 3 persons is not a decision." It is if the active community consists of about 6 members and the other 3 chose not to respond. Whether Aventicum likes it or not, the active community at Wikiquote Netherlands has made it clear they no longer have any trust in Aventicum. This has become even more clear upon Aventicum's return (after an absense of more than 6 weeks, where he immediately changed the rules for deletion requests (without any form of consensus), and proposes that nobody will be allowed to do more deletion requests than 50% of the number of new articles they created. Which suddenly would make doing deletion requests a privilege (a privilege that he himself would not even have, because his contributions to the article namespace of Wikiquote Netherlands amount to exactly... zilch) rather than a community duty. Above all else: countless articles on Wikiquote Netherlands currently violate numerous copyright rules and without proper attention Wikiquote Netherlands runs the risk of ending up like Wikiquote French some time ago: blacked out. By (again!!!) halting this process of cleanup that the few really active contributors of Wikiquote Netherlands have been engaging in, Aventicum is a danger to the project. Whaledad (talk) 21:01, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
It was an "election" with one vote! And this was the solution when we were talking aboute the huge copyright violente on dutch Wikiquote. This is not a moderator but a POV pusher. And the POV is copyvio and a lot of nonsens. And I think it is insane we have moderator with you have to send a waking up call (email) to get him in action! (if you can send any) So please, how do we get rid of this moderator? Kind regards, Sir Statler (talk) 21:29, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
So the "real" reasons for removal are not simply inactivity and, so, the former request was right. You (the nl.wikiquote) community are completely free to remove Aventicum but making the request on meta you should use the right reason under clear local policies. --Vituzzu (talk) 21:54, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I discussed this with a few other stewards and one active user of nlwikiquote. We agreed that a second discussion would be a good idea as Aventicum is now clearly aware of a possible desysop. Please first approve a policy regarding desysops and then request the removal of his admin rights. I could explain this in Dutch as well if you prefer that. Trijnsteltalk 21:57, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Note Note: that local bureaucrats should be involved in the process as well. (If possible.) Trijnsteltalk 21:57, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I already agreed with this idea when I couched it :D --Vituzzu (talk) 22:03, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Even in het Nederlands Trijnstel. Het punt is dat Adventum een grote beschermer is van het werk van Mdd wat ritselt van de copivio, lappen tekst die geen citaten zijn, achterdeurtjes naar Wikipedia, enz. Nu zijn we al tientallen uren bezig de troep nauwkeurig op te ruimen. Maar nu is geloof ik het geval bij Walter neergelegd en die is een groot voorstander van onze manier van aanpak. En Walter is OK. Klopt dat zo ongeveer? Vriendelijke groet, Sir Statler (talk) 22:15, 28 May 2012‎ (UTC)[reply]
Het eerste kan kloppen (ik volg nlwikiquote niet zo), maar ik begrijp niet zo goed wat je met het laatste bedoelt m.b.t. Walter. Trijnsteltalk 22:18, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Op een dag hadden we met Mdd slaande bonje om zijn Ency-artikelen.(Verkapte Wikipedia-artikelen in de vorm van samengeraapte l(gejate) lappen tekst, copyvoi). Adventum archiveerde toen de kantine en begon die troep te beschermen. Walter heeft toen ingegrepen en tot nu hebben we van Adventium niets meer vernomen. Behalve weer een verhaal dat er te veel wordt weggegooid. We proberen van hem af te komen maar dat lukt niet zo. En Snowolf heeft een verzoek op de OP van Walter gezet er eens naar te kijken. Sir Statler (talk) 22:26, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Hmm, ja, dat klopt. Maar het lijkt me handiger om lange lappen tekst te mailen (dan kan ik het - indien nodig - met de andere stewards delen). Trijnsteltalk 22:28, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
OK. Sir Statler (talk) 22:30, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Done as a local bureaucrat I have restored the bureaucrat status of user Aventicum@nl.wikiquote . This because the removal of the status was reverted by the steward it is only logical to restore also the bureaucrat status. If the community wishes to remove the status of user Aventicum then the need to do so in a way that is acceptabel for the steward. --Walter (talk) 08:06, 29 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
OK. One month and an email. And announcement in De Kantine. Is that acceptabel? In my opinion absolute nonsens because we have only three active users. And Adventum is chosen with one vote (user left years ago) and not actif. Anyway, thank you for your work Walter. Sir Statler (talk) 08:34, 29 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Yep, that sounds good. Good luck in advance with it. Hopefully all ends well. Trijnsteltalk 19:48, 30 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

MikkoM@fi.wikipedia

Status:    Done
Additional information: MikkoM last used his administrative tools 14 June 2010, and they were finally removed 17 May 2012. According to his fellow oversighters, the Oversight tool was last used by him 16 May 2011. According to our checkuser Jafeluv, the last log entry of using Checkuser was from the year 2010. Apart from a single edit on a talk page last November, his last article edit on fi-wiki was from the year 2010. --Pxos (talk) 18:15, 31 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

sneaky and achterbakse Vorgehensweise. Be ashamed Aventicum! Two sysops weren't activer for many years and Walter made the choice to quite by himself. And the 500 articles were huge copyright violence, we had to delete them! So please, don't call names! Anyway, all the best, Sir Statler (talk) 23:33, 1 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • User: aventicum (talk • edits • logs • UserRights • activity • CentralAuth • email • verify 2FA)
  • Discussion: please remove sysop and bureaucrate - I lost all my idealism, all my satisfaction, all my Leidenschaft. It is weird but I like playing Facebook games more than working for the Wikimedia family of projects - how low can you go. Good luck all - make me proud by allowing google adds, make lots of money and invest all of that in Wikipedia translations to languages of the people who really need this knowledge so they can improve their lives (like African languages) - I hope one day that saving a human life, or even improving ONE human life seems to be more important than not allowing adds on Wikimedia Sites (do you see how ridiculous this is?).

Aventicum (talk) 20:46, 1 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Google ads? Could you please tell me when they were included and where? That would be most worrying if true. Snowolf How can I help? 20:49, 1 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
They never were, but it's the wish of Aventicum to include them on the Wikimedia projects so we can improve the life of others. Trijnsteltalk 21:08, 1 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I think he's being sarcastic. Snowolf How can I help? 10:51, 2 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please remove my sysop rights on the said project. Also, please note that this is not a ragequit: my administratorship on that project was merely a matter of courtesy, and I have never been involved too much in it. As my time is going to be even more limited in the months to come, I would like to focus on those Wikimedia projects and initiatives that are most important for me; besides, I don't want to be a dead soul not to mislead any possible newcomers or other users on Wikiquote.
