Project:Requests

Use this page for requests for:


 * Renaming
 * Promotion (to sysop, bot, bureaucrat, transwiki, etc.)
 * Anything else bureaucrats are needed for (is there anything?)

There aren't really any formal policies on what's required. Use common sense. People with commit access probably get at least sysop automatically. Long-time developers and so on get bureaucrat. Otherwise, don't ask for something that you can't demonstrate a use for, and don't expect to be particularly trusted if you aren't known within the MediaWiki community, or at least trusted on some major Wikimedia wiki. Transwiki may be given out freely and removed freely, sysop and bureaucrat not so much.

Requests for permissions

 * Bureaucrat: In light of the creation of this page, and the relative lack of active bureaucrats, I would like to now place a request to fill the shoes. I know my way around the interface form experience on WS, and I haven't yet made any stuff ups there, so I think I'd be suitable. Cheers, -- Anon  Diss  08:47, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
 * There's not much in the way of rename requests quite yet, we should really encourage non-admins to use this time to get renames straightened out before they all start having this problem. I don't have any issue with this, but if you could snag an opinion from another bureaucrat or developer first, I'd appreciate it? :) Kylu 16:16, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

Requests for renames
Could you please change my user name to Erwin. This user already exists but has no edits. Erwin is my user name on meta and my home wiki, nlwiki. I've put up a matrix on m:User:Erwin/Matrix. Thanks. --Erwin85 22:36, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
