This page enables
stewards
to handle permissions requests, including the giving and taking of
administrator
bureaucrat
checkuser
, and
oversight
rights, for all
Wikimedia
wikis which
do not have a local permissions procedure
. 'If your wiki has a local bureaucrat, submit your request to that user or to the relevant local request page (see the
index of request pages
). Requests for
bot status
, URL
blacklisting
and
whitelisting
, and
CheckUser queries
belong elsewhere.
For urgent requests, such as to combat large-scale vandalism on a small wiki, contact a steward in the
#wikimedia-stewards
IRC channel
(see a
web-based IRC client
). In emergencies only, type
!steward
in the channel to inform stewards that you need help.
Please only make requests here after gaining the approval of your local community
When requesting permissions, copy and paste the following text into the correct section. Please fill in all the required fields -- language code, link to the local request, and link to your local user page. Without this information, a steward cannot process your request.

Belorussian Normative Wikipedia
Hi! Belorussian Normative Wikipedia has recently opened and need an admin for proper work of the wiki. The local community, which had worked in the Incubator, already have made elections and proposed three members for admins:
elections
. They are:
be:User:Yury Tarasievich
be:User:Yaroslav Zolotaryov
be:User:Mienski
. We need at least one admin as soon as possible, because the Wiki is big and can not work properly without any adminship --

Opposition to this wiki already has began vandal actions in the wiki, so we need any admin urgently. --

reply
Just because I was responsible for the counting and this is definitely votes without contributions. They was discarded in my RFA just like in other's RFA. Big amount of such a votes is result of flashmob from newly created accounts of ruwiki users, who do not know Belorussian at all --

Yaroslav Zolotaryov
has not 100 non mior edits in main-namespace (including admin function) too
, but he voted and elected. He used his temporaly admin flag to fighting with opponents. --
Morpheios Melas
09:34, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
reply
He removed many votes contra himself, then wrote in allection page "Total 4 support, 2 oppose, candidate is elected." about himself, and protect voting page. But in this case 4 sopport
is not more than 2/3 of voters
HE IS NOT ELECTED!!!
--
Morpheios Melas
09:38, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
reply
And the opponents were not from Belorussian wikipedia at all. We use 1/2 majority rule, the voters are not many all the same. About my possibility to participate in elections it was common decision of the local community. As to 2 votes against, they do not have the 100 contribs before elections - Astap has 51 non-minor edits
[2]
, Redline has 29 non-minor edits
[3]
, before beginning of the vote. So actually I have no opposition except newly created accounts from ruwiki. I choose do not delete Astap and Redline simply because I like them and do not want to hurt them by deletion. But according to the rules you proclaim I have no opposition at all--
Yaroslav Zolotaryov
09:55, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
reply
So not only I do not use admin flag against opposition, but I even count some votes against me when they are really illegal. In contrast, you and your friend choose to flahmb in other wikipedia, making newly created accounts, when you do not know even a word in Belorussian, and never contributed to the wiki, but you specially came just to fight in the vote, which you yourself acknowledge speaking with Tarasievich in bewiki.--
Yaroslav Zolotaryov
10:11, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
reply
Yes i forgot this. Yaroslav always change rules of elections. In begin there are no any rules. When he became lose elections was inserted rule about 100 non-minor edits in main-namespace of incubator:Wb\be\. Now after we count his edits and votes was counted he want change rules again. --
Morpheios Melas
10:21, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
1/2 majority rule was not annonced before Yaroslav became lose election.
--
Morpheios Melas
10:24, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
reply
In begin it was a general rule - users of other wiki are not allowed to vote in this wiki, you have made flashmob, then we have made this rule more accurate (100 contribs or previous admin status - please remember you speaking with Tarasievich, who said to you "all the same Yaroslav was previously admin and we trust him"). If I would applicate the 100 contribs rule preciously, I would have 100%, but I choose do not delete Astap and Redline. Please count all my contributions in Incubator wiki, not only in main space - check log of blocked users by me in Incubator, log of deleted articles - the amount will be around 100 in general. I do not want to be admin very much, but your holy war to take power on Belorussians seems very bad for me. --

Yes i count renames, deleting total with non moinor edits its about 90 heh! :) But deleting is not counted anywere. --

But I have blocked tens of vandals, so all is ok even from formal POV.--

And I have more general question - what do the Russians do in Belorussian elections? Let this thing will be decided by Belorussians--

You not belarussian too. You cannt speak belarusian. --

Morpheios Melas

In fact, I, as a native Belarusian speaker, was surprised that Yaroslav Zolotaryov not only understands spoken (written) Belarusian, which was known to me before, but actually also speaks (writes) quite advanced Belarusian.

My grandfather was Belorussian, exiled to Siberia, and he teach me Belorussian in my childhood. But it was a Western Belorussian dialect (from Hrodna), so I can sometimes make errors in standard Belorussian. I hope it can be corrected with your help in several months. --

That is because there is no Uyghur community on Uyghur Wikipedia; hence there is no one else to support him. Also, many of his friends living in China have told him that they were unable to access Uyghur Wikipedia. User:Barat is the only Uyghur contributor there. --

If the wiki is inactive, then a temporary sysophood should be granted. MOreover, he hasn't even confirmed he'd like to be a sysop, you just nominated him 3 days ago and informed him yesterday. It's the second time you nominate ombodu for uyghur wikipedia in a month, quite a lot for an inactive wiki is it?
Moreover, in the last 500 changes in the past 30 days are just 20 edits from Barat (other than you and bots). So what's the urgency? wait the full week and nominate again. But if the wiki is really that inactive, then you I suggest you to nominatie him for a temporary sysophood (btw, your's is about to expire this week).

Bambara, Fulfulde and Wolof Wikipedia
I'm requesting bureaucrat status on these Wikipedias. I want to give bots bot status to make it easier to check the recent changes. I've been (the only) administrator on these Wikipedias since 2005 and there haven't been any complaints. I'm actively involved in the afrophonewikis list and there has been some (but not awesome) progress with these Wikipedias, especially the Wolof one.

CheckUser access
To request CheckUser
information

Request for CheckUser information
This is the place to request CheckUser
access
. Note that temporary CheckUser access is not permitted.
Stewards: When someone asks for CheckUser status, please check the current
policy
regarding bestowal of status
before
giving the status. Breaching these rules may be cause for removing your steward access. When you give someone CheckUser, please list them on
CheckUser
, ask them to subscribe to
checkuser-l

checkuser-l-owner@wikipedia.org
so that the listadmins know the person is allowed on the mailing list (the list may contain confidential information).

Oversight access
Do not initiate an oversight request here
. The Arbitration Committee will make the request once there is consensus on the local wiki (this process is currently for en-Wikipedia only).
Stewards: When you give someone oversight access, list them on
Hiding revisions
Removal of access
You may request that your own access be removed here; stewards will grant such requests immediately if you provide proof that you are the same user on meta as on your local wiki. This may be accomplished most easily by placing a note in English on your local talk page confirming your request.
To request the removal of
another
user's status,
you must gain consensus on the local wiki first
. All discussion must be kept on your local wiki. When there is community consensus that the user's access should be removed, a trusted person from that wiki should provide a link here to the discussion, a very brief explanation of the reason for the request, and summarize the results of discussion.

Temporary permissions for emergency or technical purposes
If you are requesting administrator status to make a translation of the wiki interface, see also the
BetaWiki project
, which seeks to make a neutral MediaWiki translation that will then be default for all wikis. That is more useful than only making a local translation. You can ask questions in the
IRC channel
or in the
mailing list
. See also
MediaWiki localisation
Stewards: Currently active temporary permissions are listed at
/Approved temporary
. When granting a request, please copy the request to the appropriate section there, and clearly state the date of removal. Requests only need remain listed below for a few days, and may afterward be removed as long as they have been copied to the subpage.
