Steward requests/Permissions
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. Minimum voting requirement are listed here.
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.

Using this page
[edit]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 this is for multiple users, leave this field blank and give a list of these users 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
[edit]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
[edit]Administrator access
[edit]See Administrator for information about this user group.
- If you are requesting adminship to handle one time vandalism incidents or clearing a deletion backlog, please see Steward requests/Miscellaneous.
- MediaWiki interface translations are done at translatewiki.net. Please do not request administrator access solely for that purpose; your request will be declined.
- Admins doing cross-wiki work may wish to see IRC/wikimedia-admin for information about joining #wikimedia-adminconnect.
- 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.

Interface administrator access
[edit]See Interface admin for information about this user group.
- If you need to accomplish a one-time, non-recurring task, please request your task at Steward requests/Miscellaneous.
- If you are requesting adminship and the interface admin at the same time, you can file one request in administrator section and state you want interface adminship as well.
- MediaWiki interface translations are done at translatewiki.net. Please do not request interface administrator access solely for that purpose; your request will be declined.
- Since the end of 2018, all interface administrators are required to have two-factor authentication (2FA) enabled. Please, enable it before posting your request here.
- 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 interface adminship.
- Discussions should be open for seven days. Please request interface 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 interface adminship for specific tasks, please state for how long and for which tasks you need it. Otherwise stewards will decide whether to assign permanent interface adminship and the duration of interface adminship. See Steward requests/Permissions/Minimum voting requirements.

Bureaucrat access
[edit]- 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
[edit]- 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.
- Stewards: Before granting this permission to a user, please check the current policy and make sure that the user has signed the confidentiality agreement with the Wikimedia Foundation. An email template is available for requesting new users to identify.
- When a new user is assigned to this group, please add them to this list. Subscription to checkuser-l will be handled by list owners. Make sure new users contact an op for access to #wikimedia-privacyconnect and #wikimedia-checkuserconnect.

Oversight access
[edit]- 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 .
- Stewards: Before granting this permission to a user, please check the current policy and make sure that the user has signed the confidentiality agreement with the Wikimedia Foundation.
- When a new user is assigned to this group, please add them to this list.
Miscellaneous requests
[edit]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:

I would like to request an one-year importer. Thank you. Alfiyah Rizzy Afdiquni (talk) 23:33, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
- @Alfiyah Rizzy Afdiquni: Could you clarify what you will need import rights for? Importupload is cautious and can mess up quite a lot if not used properly, so could you explain what you will import, and from which wikis? EPIC (talk) 23:47, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
- Hi, I want to import templates from Indonesian Wikipedia (idwiki). I know what I'm doing, and I have someone who's experienced with importupload from idwiki (User:Bennylin) to help me. Our Wikipedia is quite new and in need for many templates. As you can see in the recent changes, some users manually import the templates one by one, and honestly it's quite distracting. And then I was told about this tool to help import the templates, that's why I'm requesting it. Alfiyah Rizzy Afdiquni (talk) 23:12, 15 November 2024 (UTC)
- If you will only import from idwiki, why not instead gain consensus to add it to the transwiki sources, so that all sysops can import? EPIC (talk) 09:03, 16 November 2024 (UTC)
- Actually, I now notice that idwiki is already in the transwiki sources. With that said, Not done - as you are a sysop you can already import from idwiki using transwiki import. EPIC (talk) 09:06, 16 November 2024 (UTC)
- Using import upload will save a lot of time, rather than transwiki import the hundreds of templates and modules. Could you reconsider this request? This is a legitimate community request for a trusted admin with good standing, and there's nothing to worry about the procedure as an experienced user (me) will oversee the whole process step by step. Therefore your rejection is ungrounded. ✒ Bennylin 10:19, 16 November 2024 (UTC)

Removal of access
[edit]- 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.

Done Filling pro-forma: Jagro resigned as Czech Wikipedia admin and CheckUser, effective immediately. Note the resignation is following a local confirmation process (started Oct 13), which means the customary waiting period is not desirable. --Martin Urbanec (talk) 20:59, 11 November 2024 (UTC)
- Martin, given that this is a controversial resignation, why did you carry it out? Sdrqaz (talk) 22:51, 11 November 2024 (UTC)
- @Sdrqaz I do not consider it to be controversial (Stewards can't reject a resignation anyway). Czech admins can be challenged for a confirmation (re-election). When that happens, they have a month to either start the re-election or resign. In this case, the admin decided to resign. I noted that above to clarify the 24 hrs period (which already passed via the local process). Best Martin Urbanec (talk) 07:08, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
- @Martin Urbanec: I understood your first message (and read the confirmation page). I just thought that it was strange that you removed a CheckUser on your homewiki instead of making a request. Sdrqaz (talk) 13:32, 15 November 2024 (UTC)
- I share the concern that @Sdrqaz has. I believe requests like this should be left to uninvolved stewards. signed, Aafi (talk) 13:55, 15 November 2024 (UTC)
- If you have enough time to note this down here, you can also wait for other stewards. There is no rush.
- Stewards policy allows changing rights on home wikis for "clear-cut cases (such as self-requested removal)".
- Imo it is arguable that this wasn't fully clear-cut aka. uncontroversial, due to the fact that we are also talking about checkusership and the resignation happened in the context of a sysop-confirmation request.
- Which means: this is borderline. It's not a misuse of steward tools, but rather unneeded stress, which could be easily avoided by just waiting for another steward from another homewiki to fulfill this request. TenWhile6 14:10, 15 November 2024 (UTC)
- Personally, I disagree with that interpretation. Because Stewards can't deny a resignation (and force a CU/admin to stay), there isn't really any decision being made here (just several administrative actions that need to be taken), making this case clear-cut from that perspective. That being said, I recognise others disagree with that interpretation, and I'll consider that for following similar cases. Best, Martin Urbanec (talk) 08:01, 16 November 2024 (UTC)

(Summary of consensus: a) An admin is expected to make at least 50 administrative edits in a year. Current admins without 50 administrative edits in the last three years will be removed from their roles, allowing active and experienced Wikipedians to become admins.; b) If a former admin starts active editing, contributing to (at least 10) admin tasks, then they can reapply to become an admin again; c) Experienced editors who have not been admins and have been in assisting admin tasks can apply to become new admins.)

(The editor cited their inability to perform admin duties due to personal matters and has intended to step down from the admin role, "Due to my own personal reasons, I have not been able to actively contribute much to Wikipedia in the last few months as an ordinary writer or as an illustration. I can't even say from now on whether I can give time or not. [..]Therefore, I would like to tender my resignation voluntarily from the post. [..] Thank you so much for choosing me as an admin.". (translated from Odia). Their contribution as an admin has been widely appreciated in the post and otherwise.) --Psubhashish (talk) 20:17, 18 November 2024 (UTC)
- @Soumendrak: Since the resignation is from August, could you confirm here that you still want your adminship removed? EPIC (talk) 20:26, 18 November 2024 (UTC)
- Yes, kindly proceed with removal of the admin access from my account.
Thanks @Psubhashish for raising the request. Soumendrak (talk) 13:49, 19 November 2024 (UTC)- Done Since the initial resignation was in August and the user confirmed that the resignation is still valid, I am not waiting the usual 24 hours here and proceeding with the removal.

Since I was elected to be part of our arbitrition court and double function with bureaucrats is not suitable / foreseen, I request the removal of the bureaucrats flag Achim Raschka (talk) 04:48, 22 November 2024 (UTC)
- On hold for 1 day, standard for resignation of advanced permissions. EPIC (talk) 05:16, 22 November 2024 (UTC)
- Done by another steward, so marking as such. (With that said, since this is a slightly similar case as #Jagro@cs.wikipedia, maybe it should have been done by a different steward, especially since it skipped the 24 hour hold?) EPIC (talk) 08:05, 22 November 2024 (UTC)
- Skipping the 24h hold is okay, because Achim already announced his decision to step down from crat in case of a positive arbcom election on 8th november.
- This was also uncontroversial and not in the context of something like „being forced to get a re-election as sysop“. This is a different case compared to cswiki and imo this is covered by the stewards policy and not problematic. TenWhile6 08:34, 22 November 2024 (UTC)
- I got an explanation from Johannes in private too - the reason I placed the request on hold was that I was aware of the policy and that it affected B/CU/OS, but didn't know it also affected ArbCom (so I had only thought of that part being an unwritten rule/practice rather than a policy). With that said I don't see it as a big deal in either case. EPIC (talk) 08:42, 22 November 2024 (UTC)
- In my opinion, the Czech Wikipedia situation was more objectionable because it was a controversial resignation (one made in controversial circumstances), plus it involved CheckUser. Sdrqaz (talk) 16:27, 22 November 2024 (UTC)
