Steward requests/Permissions

From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki
This is an archived version of this page, as edited by Rsocol (talk | contribs) at 06:39, 4 January 2014 (Ark25@ro.wikipedia ). It may differ significantly from the current version .

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-stewards connect 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 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

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:

==== Username@xxproject ====

Administrator access

AryanSogd@tgwiki

Status: Done

I ask to appropriate flags of the administrator and the bureaucrat. I address to you as there is nobody more. In tg.wiki from five administrators and one bureaucrat three are absent more than two years. One administrator and онже the bureaucrat is absent nearly two years. I address on its pages of discussion, but the answer didn't receive. I need both flags, so I am adjusted to work seriously in tg.wiki. I have the status autopatrolled in ru.wiki and well a sign with rules of Wikipedia as a whole. --AryanSogd 14:24, 26 December 2013 (UTC) [reply ]

As stated on this page, permanent requests for wikis without community and consensum will not be granted. Please state if you have a written request on your wiki and post the link here. --M/ (talk) 14:30, 26 December 2013 (UTC) [reply ]
  • Bureaucratship is most likely not needed on such a small wiki - the few things that probably need to be done there can be done by the stewards upon request. As for adminship, without local consensus/community, we do not grant permanent admin access but a temporary adminship for three moths to sometimes one year. After that time you will need to re-apply. -Barras talk 16:29, 26 December 2013 (UTC) [reply ]
  • First I want to thank all here present for participation in discussion of my demand. Secondly I want to pay your attention that in the local community, two participants daily working in tg.wiki one of which I. There is a question, about what local community and the general consensus can there be a speech?--AryanSogd 17:00, 26 December 2013 (UTC) [reply ]
P.S. The status of the bureaucrat is also necessary. If administrators aren't active that exactly bureaucrats have to make the decision about snaty a flag of the administrator from the participant at the general consensus. Also to appropriate a flag of the administrator and the bot to those who really understands for what they are necessary.--AryanSogd 17:55, 26 December 2013 (UTC) [reply ]
Your request cannot be fulfilled at the moment: bureaucrat permission is not to be granted and also a permanent sysop flag with no consensus on wiki is not an option. I've requested a comment from the active sysop on your wiki. You will have to wait a little bit more for further answer. Thank you, M/ (talk) 16:40, 27 December 2013 (UTC) [reply ]
According to User Hibraim opinion, I am granting a six month temp adminship, encouraging you to continue your work on tg.wiki and to setup an election at the end of this term, following your colleague instructions.
Done Granted for 6 months to expire on 2014年07月03日.

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>

Status: Not done

Mal uso de sus botones. Por eso deberían remover a todos los bibliotecarios de esta lista y también de esta lista --Pedo con CarGa (talk) 04:14, 2 January 2014 (UTC) [reply ]

It might be helpful if you could provide some examples, where all theses administrators have misused their access (or a discussion in which the community decided to get rid of all their admins due to misuse). Vogone talk 04:22, 2 January 2014 (UTC) [reply ]
In fact, what would be needed is a discussion in which the community decided to get rid of all their admins for any reasons, and nothing else. --MF-W 04:35, 2 January 2014 (UTC) [reply ]
Yes, but the rationale which is to be proven here is: "Mal uso de sus botones." Vogone talk 04:39, 2 January 2014 (UTC) [reply ]
Well, but that is the same as with the inactivity removal request at #Ruben.40hy.wiktionary or the requests to remove hrwiki sysops for perceived abuse: Regardless of whether the things are true, stewards have no power to remove sysops for that reason. It is surely nice if the community has a reason when deciding to remove sysop rights, but the reason itself cannot make stewards do something, only the community decision. --MF-W 19:15, 2 January 2014 (UTC) [reply ]

This is a trolling/abuse account, already indefblocked on eswiki. es: Magister Mathematicae 04:38, 2 January 2014 (UTC) [reply ]

Actually I would had reverted that request without any answer, we are not the infobox for trolls. --Vituzzu (talk) 19:26, 2 January 2014 (UTC) [reply ]

Status: Not done

Please remove Ruben's admin right because of non-activity it is the contributions for Armenian Wiktionary he made ​​the last edition in 2007. --Vadgt (talk) 10:20, 1 January 2014 (UTC) [reply ]

Not done To remove the rights there would need to be a conversation in the community to remove these rights. — billinghurst sDrewth 15:24, 1 January 2014 (UTC) [reply ]

I think there's only active editor. --Vadgt (talk) 02:53, 2 January 2014 (UTC) [reply ]

The process of the Admin activity review will come along soon anyway and propose to remove his sysop rights (Admin_activity_review/2013/Data#hy.wiktionary.org). A community decision is also possible if there is only a small number of active editors. --MF-W 00:48, 3 January 2014 (UTC) [reply ]
The conversation needs to be undertaken before the stewards can do anything, on the rare chance that the person contributes. I think that the conversation will come to nought, but have it, and then we can move upon it. Same as requests for adminship, have the conversation before stewards can do anything. — billinghurst sDrewth 14:07, 3 January 2014 (UTC) [reply ]

Ark25@ro.wikipedia

Status: In progress

We have five established users who say that Ark25 has a conduct unfit for his status, as mentioned in our policy ro:Wikipedia:Revocare#Destituire. Their arguments are mainly that his activity in the last year consists only of adding external links to newspaper stories, in the articles or the discussion pages related to those stories. Ark25 says those are valid reliable sources that may be used to develop the articles in the future. I'm one of the three beaurocrats of ro.wiki and although I do not fully agree with the arguments of the five users, I feel obliged to post this request here. Rsocol (talk) 15:45, 3 January 2014 (UTC) [reply ]

Do I understand your policy correctly that there will be automatically be a vote about whether Ark25 should become a sysop again after the renewal? --MF-W 17:22, 3 January 2014 (UTC) [reply ]
Yes. Rsocol (talk) 06:39, 4 January 2014 (UTC) [reply ]
