Importer/vi
An importer is a user with import rights, generally speaking.
On Wikimedia wikis, there are two kinds of importers:
- transwiki importers can perform only transwiki import (import permission);[1]
- importers can perform both transwiki and upload import (import and importupload permissions).[2]
Import is a rarely needed feature; for instance, it's not needed for CC-BY-SA copyright compliance, see Terms of use.
These flags are enabled on all wikis,[3] but can be assigned only by stewards after a request on dedicated page (especially the import flag which includes the importupload right which is particularly dangerous) and only on a temporary basis for a specific task, unless the project has a local process and policy to assign permanent import rights.
Very few projects need and have such a policy, including:
- German Wikipedia,
- English Wikibooks,
- French Wiktionary,
- Incubator,
- Italian Wiktionary,
- MediaWiki wiki (importers, transwiki importers).
Wikis where bureaucrats (or sysops) can assign import rights

- ↑ On Sorani Wikipedia (bug 52633), German Wikiquote, German Wiktionary, Hebrew Wikivoyage and English Wikibooks, sysops have importupload rights; on Sorani Wikipedia, the 'Bot có quyền bảo quản viên' group have importupload rights.
- ↑ Although transwiki import may require requesting wiki configuration changes to enable import from the wiki you're interested in (import source).
