Steward requests/Permissions: Difference between revisions

1. Place the following code at the bottom of the appropriate section below:

   ====user name@xxproject====
   {{sr-request
    |status    = <!--don't change this line-->
    |domain    = 
    |user name = 
    |discussion= 
   }}
   Thank you! ~~~~
   

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"). Leave it blank and list them yourself if you're requesting access for multiple bots.
   • 'discussion': a link to the local vote or discussion about the rights change (for example, "[[ex:Wikipedia:Requests_for_adminship#ExampleUser]]").
3. If anything is missing from your request, a steward will request more information.

Certain permissions (notably CheckUser and Oversight) additionally require users to confirm their identity. Users requesting these permissions must make a request below, and must also submit the relevant identification to the Foundation. The request is placed on hold temporarily, until receipt has been formally confirmed by the office.

Instructions for how you can confirm your identity can be found at: Steward handbook/email templates.

For stewards: Identification noticeboard.

Thai Wiktionary need an active user to be an admin --Watcharakorn 13:49, 9 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I agree that th.wikt needs an active admin. The voting started today, and I would therefore suggest either: to keep it open at least a week to grant others to vote there, or if the community is too small for votings (looking at the recent changes this seems to be the case) we could grant him a temporary sysop access for 3 months (note this is technically the same, he just drops us a note here a few days before the status expires to prolong it). Best regards, --birdy geimfyglið _(:> )=| 13:58, 9 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I had some trouble deciphering which section of the discussion page was the 'crat election, I am sorry to say. Can someone give me some pointers to the section I should check? Thanks. ++Lar: t/c 02:20, 30 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Translation added. --Jacob 18:57, 30 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you Jacob. This wiki appears to only have 3 sysops: [1] and it already has one 'crat: [2] although Peringz appears not to be active for a while now... at least 2 of the 10 supporters of Shijualex appear to have supported Shijualex as their only contribution to this wiki. This wiki may not yet be active enough for another local 'crat. Let me consult with my fellow stewards (or they could also comment here). Sorry for the delay. ++Lar: t/c 21:57, 31 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

First, ml.wikisource is an active wikisource. I believe this page doesn't offer a true comparison of the level of activity due to the issue cited here. Still, it is among the top 30 Wikisources when ranked by total no. of pages in wiki. Second, Malayalam wikipedia has the 3rd largest depth among wikipedias that have at least 1000 articles. Considering the level of "activity" (including the level of vandalism — to prevent which I bug you folks in IRC), I feel Malayalam Wiki projects have been quite conservative in granting sysop status; wikisource is no exception. Wikisource doesn't need as many sysops as a wikipedia needs - due to lesser need for maintainance. Third we need an active bureaucrat.

Not to divert the focus of discussion, but just FYI, each of those voters with lesser contributions are active in ml.wikipedia. You may confirm their activity using SUL Tool. --Jacob 02:00, 1 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Very helpful clarification. Let me consult further. Again, sorry for the delay. ++Lar: t/c 14:44, 1 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

With the above said, I'm inclined to accept the request but will give some time (at least 48 hours) to other stewards to comment. --Daniel Mayer 15:32, 8 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

In accordance with this votation, please grant the checkuser access for users below:

• Alexanderps (already identified [3]
• Carlosar (user informed to send a identify.)

Thanks Sir Lestaty ^discuţie 08:06, 4 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Done for the two that have already identified. Once Carlosar identifies, we can promote him as well. --FiliP × 08:09, 4 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

__Summary of discussion here__. Thank you! ~~~~

Kimkha has the support of basically the entire (logged-in) community at the Vietnamese Wikisource and has been active in establishing article guidelines for the project. Our only permanent sysop has been missing-in-action for over a year. Thank you. Minh Nguyễn (talk, contribs) 07:18, 30 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

By current standards, 3 votes are not enough for permanent sysop status. We'd be glad to grant temporary sysop status for say, 3 months, at first. --FiliP × 08:42, 30 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Progress report? --FiliP × 09:23, 5 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree - temp access and then a review after that seems to be in order. --Daniel Mayer 15:42, 8 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Request for renewal of temporary permission for next 3 months. Steward_requests/Permissions/Approved_temporary#Expiring:_14_Nov_2008. Thank you! Dalibor Bosits 13:56, 12 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Done, thanks for Your work there, expires: 14-02-2009 please remember to translate the interface at betawiki: only and to upload images preferably to commons:, please come back a few days before the status expires to prolong it or hold a local voting if the community grows, thanks, best regards, --birdy geimfyglið _(:> )=| 19:13, 12 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Currently on discussion, But Temporary access is neccessary (at least two monthes), One reason is localization into his own dialect.
Thank you! Ali 15:44, 13 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Import rights can be granted by stewards only, not bureaucrats, so the automatic list of local bureaucrats is irrelevant for this; please show a link to a consensus if the wiki has a community.
• Usurpation requests should be placed at Steward requests/Usurpation.
• Username changes should be placed at Requests for username changes.
