Test Wiki:Requests for permissions

Requests for permissions

You can request administrator, bureaucrat, or other permissions below. To be eligible for bureaucrat permissions, you must fulfill the criteria established in the bureaucrat policy. Generally, this means 4 days of being an administrator and having 10 edits total, with exceptions. Interface administrator rights can only be granted by the stewards and are only given to highly trusted users. Abuse filter administrator rights may be requested here, but two stewards must support your request. These rights are only granted to trusted users for non-test reasons. If two stewards do not support your request, please request abuse filter administrator rights at the community portal. All rights will be removed after 3 months of inactivity. Other Permissions: Bot, translate administrator, interwiki admin, autopatrol, election administrator, For Steward or System Administrator, a vote should take place on the community portal. Bureaucrats, you can use the userRightsManager gadget to easily handle requests. Please note that you should make a confirmation edit, then link to the diff on the other wiki, when specifying cross-project accounts.

Comments by the requester (optional): Have been an editor for a while (since December 31st, 2025), and wanted to take a look at the cozy stuff that adminship has to offer. SimpleObjects-testwiki (talk) 03:46, 15 February 2026 (UTC)

 Done. Please follow our policies when performing tests and non-test actions. Feel free to ask questions on a steward's talk page, or on the community portal. Happy testing! Not done for bureaucrat; you must hold sysop for at least 4 days before you can receive bureaucrat. In other words,  Partly done. Quaille (talk) 04:12, 15 February 2026 (UTC)

Understood. At least I will be holding on to that. May re-request for bureaucrat in or around March of 2026. 😉 SimpleObjects-testwiki (talk) 12:40, 15 February 2026 (UTC)

• User: Elton (talk · contribs · deleted · logs · rights) (assign permissions)
• Requested right: Steward
• Link to your account in other projects, e.g. Wikimedia, Miraheze, Fandom (optional): Look at my Wikimedia account
• [Yes sir!] I am familiar with all of Test Wiki's policies and agree to follow them completely.
• [Yes sir!] I agree that I am entirely responsible for all actions done under this account, including those performed by someone other than myself.
• [Yes sir!] I agree that if I misuse the tools, my access might be revoked and I may be banned from Test Wiki without prior warning.

Comments by the requester (optional): I’m heading over to Test Wiki to formally petition for steward rights because I want to be a force for good within the global community. My goal isn’t just to poke around in the code; I want the responsibility of protecting this project. By gaining these rights, I can step in as a "firefighter," using my permissions to intercept vandals and clear out malicious spam that might otherwise sit for days on wikis without active local administrators.

I see this as a way to serve the movement more deeply. With steward tools, I can act as a neutral mediator and a protector of the project's integrity, ensuring that this wiki remains a safe space for knowledge. I'm ready to take on the burden of Oversight and CheckUser duties to safeguard user privacy and keep our platforms clean. For me, these rights are a commitment to the well-being of the entire Wikimedia ecosystem. Elton (talk) 21:16, 17 February 2026 (UTC)
