Administrators on Meta are users who have been granted the technical ability to perform certain special actions with local (protect and unprotect pages, delete and undelete pages, block and unblock users, and perform a variety of other tasks) and global (edit the title and spam blacklists, modify global abusefilters, send mass messages globally and more) effects.
- For a list of administrators on other Wikimedia projects, see Administrators of Wikimedia projects.
- For assistance from an admin, visit Meta:Requests for help from a sysop or bureaucrat.
Policy for requesting adminship
To request administrator access on Meta, you need to:
- Demonstrate cross-wiki experience (e.g., be a participant of at least two months' duration on at least one project other than Meta and the "home" project).
- Have a user page on Meta.
- Have a valid contact address (either a confirmed email address in preferences, or a valid email address on the user page).
- Be an active contributor on Meta (this is a subjective, not objective, measure; there is no official edit-count).
- Preferably add {{#babel}} to your user page, given the multilingual nature of Meta.
Ill-considered nominations for adminship can be draining and deflating to both community and candidate. Any successful candidate will need to demonstrate sufficient experience within the Wikimedia community, in addition to a familiarity with Meta. If a candidate is not already a local administrator or holder of advanced permissions, or is currently blocked on a Wikimedia content project, they are less likely to pass a request for adminship at Meta.
The request is made at Requests for adminship, with at least one week allocated for the community to express opinions. The candidate will be named sysop here only if approved by at least 75% of participants. All active Meta-wiki editors may participate and give their opinion on the candidate. If your activity is outside Meta, but you have an opinion based on working with candidate in other Wikimedia projects, in support of or against the candidate, you are welcome to submit it.
If the candidate becomes a sysop, they should add their name to the Administrator list, and ensure they keep a valid user page, links to at least one other project, and valid contact. Administrators not respecting these rules will be desysoped.
For current administrators: Template:AdminWelcome contains some handy links.
To become an administrator, make a request at Requests for adminship and meet the requirements listed there and above.
Regular administrators are allowed to subscribe to metawiki-admins, a private mailing list. Should you wish to subscribe, you'll find the instructions on the mailing list page.
Exceptions
It is helpful for some people to have access to protected pages on Meta (related to languages files). In such cases, two options are possible:
- Temporary unprotection of these pages, so that the user can quietly work on them for a limited time.
- Temporary sysoping of the user so they can edit the protected pages. In this case, the adminship shall be granted with no requirements and approval, but the user will promise to limit their activity to the necessity of their local project. Preferably, the admin status will be temporary.
