Stewards/Elections 2025
Translate this page at Template:Steward elections.
The 2025 steward elections have not started yet. Voting will start at 06 February 2025, 14:00 (UTC).
- New stewards are elected roughly once per year. Stewards perform technical tasks on all Wikimedia wikis based on community consensus and on the Stewards policy: changing user access, viewing user information in cases of abuse, and so on (see details).
- For more information on voting, translating, or being a candidate, read the guidelines. You can automatically check your eligibility to vote.
- Candidate submissions are open from 15 January 2025, 00:00 (UTC) until 31 January 2025, 23:59 (UTC). Questions to the candidates can be submitted until the election concludes.
- The voting begins on 06 February 2025, 14:00 (UTC) and ends on 27 February 2025, 14:00 (UTC). Candidates must meet the criteria and obtain at least 30 votes in favor with an 80% support ratio. You can track the results with collected statistics.
- The confirmation process of the current stewards is being held in parallel.

Election Committee
Stewards organise the elections themselves. The Board of Trustees decided in 2009 that they will abstain from confirming the result of new elections. Therefore, stewards create an election committee for every election consisting of volunteers for the following tasks:
- Closing the steward elections;
- Certifying the outcome of the elections, after all votes cast in all candidatures were verified for eligibility;
- Appointing the elected candidates;
- Closing the steward confirmations;
- After the steward confirmation, weighing consensus by community and stewards, and then decide whether to confirm them or not.
