I'd like to be desysoped from ca.wiktionary. I'm quite inactive there and my contributions can be done without the sysop buttons. The two active admins that remains in the project can handle (and if not, I'll ask for a resysoping; I've told them already). I'd like to concentrate in the other 2 adminships that I keep. Thanks!

Revision as of 14:21, 7 December 2016

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 requirements 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.
  • All processed requests are automatically archived after 24 hours of no activity. Use {{PinSRP}} on a request section to prevent it from being archived, or {{ArchiveNowSRP}} to archive a request section as soon as possible.

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: 

 and also mistakes. Thank you.

Administrator access

See Administrator for information about this user group.

  • MediaWiki interface translations are done at translatewiki.net. Please do not request administrator access solely for that purpose; your request will be declined.
  • 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.

Seth R@bn.wikibooks

I have 600+ edits. I have experience in Bengali Wikipedia.I Requesting for temporary administrator right for 6 months in Bangla Wikibooks. ★ Seth talk 02:13, 29 November 2016 (UTC) reply

On hold till 5 December. --Stryn (talk) 08:06, 29 November 2016 (UTC) reply
@Stryn already 7 days passed,, in discussion 4 supportss and 2 opposes but I am really hope for this right. If you check then I am most active user in this project. Last 30 days I have made more than 2 months. I have made more than 820 edits and 5000 global edits. I want make this community more strong. This right will inspires me to more work. So please do it.★ Seth talk 10:06, 5 December 2016 (UTC) reply
Not done. Unfortunately, per the local policy, to get an adminship, you need at least 75% of support. Seems like there's nothing wrong, just that you should be more active before asking the rights. So try to stay a bit more active on the project and then if you want, ask the rights again. Best regards, --Stryn (talk) 10:18, 5 December 2016 (UTC) reply

Mirzali@diq.wikipedia

Status: On hold

I'm a native speaker of Zazaki and want to help 'Asmen' -our administrator-. Thank you! Mirzali (talk) 11:44, 30 November 2016 (UTC) reply

[discussions removed] On hold until 7 December. By the way, the "Embassy" page is marked as being for non-Zazaki speakers. Is there maybe a more apt page for holding adminship requests? --MF-W 03:23, 1 December 2016 (UTC) reply
Dear MF-Warburg! Please consider my explanation for this matter. I didn't want to bring it into the discussion, because it would be distorted and chewed again. Best regards! -- Mirzali (talk) 06:20, 2 December 2016 (UTC) reply
The candidate was an admin and abused the access (here). I commented on Embassy page, 3 of supporters are not even active on Zazaki wikipedia. So, there are only invited accounts for the vote. P.S. I will not discuss the request here.--Gomada (talk) 08:53, 1 December 2016 (UTC) reply
This is not the discussion page Gomada. You don't have to pretend to have the final word. -- Mirzali (talk) 06:01, 2 December 2016 (UTC) reply
The steward that decides this should review the Meta RFC above, it seems User:Quentinv57 desysopped Mirzali because of this 2013 discussion. --Rs chen 7754 19:12, 2 December 2016 (UTC) reply

Bureaucrat access

See Bureaucrat for information about this user group.
  • 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.
  • Since 2026, all bureaucrats are required to have two-factor authentication (2FA) enabled. Please, enable it before posting your request here.

Requests for removal of access should be posted at the section below.

CheckUser access

See CheckUser policy for information about this user group and the policy governing the use of this tool.
  • 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.
  • Since 2026, all CheckUsers are required to have two-factor authentication (2FA) enabled. Please, enable it before posting your request here.

Oversight access

See Oversight policy for information about this user group and the policy governing the use of this tool.
  • To request to have content oversighted, ask for a steward in #wikimedia-stewards connect 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 .
  • Since 2026, all oversighters are required to have two-factor authentication (2FA) enabled. Please, enable it before posting your request here.
  • When a new user is assigned to this group, please add them to this list.

Removal of access

  • 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.

INeverCry@Commons

Status: Done

I suffer from Bi-Polar Disorder and Panic Disorder. I don't think that being an administrator is a good thing for me. Doing less stressful work, like category sorting and license reviews is probably a much better and healthier choice for me. I think the community at Commons knows I care and that I enjoy working on the project, but I think they would want what's best for me. I think that a removal of my sysop right at Commons is best thing for my health at this time, and going forward. I don't think I'll ask to be an admin anywhere again. There's just too much stress and conflict involved, and I can't handle it well at all. Thanks for your time. lNeverCry 18:57, 4 December 2016 (UTC) reply

It's a pity to see this happening. INeverCry has been one of our best admins. Unfortunately Commons is such a hostile environment from time to time. Jcb (talk) 19:24, 4 December 2016 (UTC) reply
Not much to add after Jcb's comment. Personal health outweighs any community needs, please get well and stay well! --Krd 20:08, 4 December 2016 (UTC) reply
removed, I just want to say it is very mature decision. Thank you INeverCry,einsbor talk 18:07, 5 December 2016 (UTC) reply

Coyau@Commons

Status: Done

User deceased :-(. Please remove sysop access. --Steinsplitter (talk) 13:21, 6 December 2016 (UTC) reply

Done, einsbor talk 14:54, 6 December 2016 (UTC) reply

Aleator@cawikt

Status: In progress

I'd like to be desysoped from ca.wiktionary. I'm quite inactive there and my contributions can be done without the sysop buttons. The two active admins that remains in the project can handle (and if not, I'll ask for a resysoping; I've told them already). I'd like to concentrate in the other 2 adminships that I keep. Thanks!

Miscellaneous requests

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:

  • SRB — Local or global bot status
  • SRGP — Global permissions
