Wikivoyage:User rights nominations Voyage Tips and guide

You can check the original Wikivoyage article Here

If you believe a Wikivoyager – including yourself – should have administrative status or any other higher user right, then add that person's username to the nominations section below.

If nominated for permanent administrator, the Wikivoyager should meet the guidelines for becoming an administrator. Generally speaking, they should:

  • Have been a contributor for at least a few months
  • Have an extensive knowledge of our policies
  • Have a history of article contribution, janitorial work, cleaning up articles, contributing to policy discussions, and combating vandalism/spam
  • Have a demonstrated ability to work with the community

Nominations must include a short statement outlining the nominee's eligibility in terms of these requirements.

When responding to a nomination, most people choose to express their opinion with a bolded word or phrase, most often Support or Not yet, followed by an explanation of the opinion. After 14 days, a bureaucrat will close the discussion and, if there is a consensus that the nominee would make a good administrator, grant the administrator flag using Special:UserRights.

Bureaucrats, interface admins and checkusers should also be nominated here.

Users running for interface administrator must also confirm that they have 2FA enabled before they are promoted as per WMF policy. If this is not done, the request will be closed as unsuccessful.

Temporary permissions

Most requests on this page will go for 14 days and all will have a nomination period of 14 days, with the exception of temporary permissions, which may be granted no earlier than 7 days after the nomination was made if there are no outstanding questions or objections. An objection or question raised on the sixth day would automatically keep the nomination open (without temporary permission) for the full 14 days unless the matter was resolved before then. The nomination would always be open for 14 days so in some cases editors could comment after they have seen a couple of days of use of the temporary permission.

Nominations

OhanaUnited (checkuser)

[edit]

As per this discussion on the pub, I am nominating Ohana to be the site's third checkuser. The candidate has been a sysop here for more than 18 months now and has been a long-standing trusted admin on both enwiki and Wikispecies (where they are also a bureaucrat), and also has helped with anti-vandalism on this site. //shb (t | c | m) 04:19, 26 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I accept the nomination. I was a Checkuser clerk for English Wikipedia between 2008 and 2012 (and occasionally still guest appearance as one[1]). I hope I can put my previous knowledge to good use for the benefit of this project. OhanaUnitedTalk page 05:07, 26 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  1. Support as nominator. //shb (t | c | m) 04:19, 26 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  2. Support Trusted. Just to clarify, though: Would they be a full checkuser or some kind of alternate who would become active if needed? Because the nomination seems to present the nomination as conditional ("in case either SelfieCity or myself go inactive"). Ikan Kekek (talk) 04:25, 26 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Full/regular checkuser – sorry, I should have clarified this in the nomination. //shb (t | c | m) 04:27, 26 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Votes made by block evading users have been struck (though they were bound to be ignored by stewards anyway). //shb (t | c | m) 22:10, 29 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    Nah we don't have any voting criteria haha :) – it's just those three temp accounts were confirmed to be that of a community banned user. //shb (t | c | m) 08:09, 31 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Amusing, considering the CU context. Piotrus (talk) 03:49, 1 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    I'll file a request at m:SRP, though I assume this will be on hold for a little while since we need to wait for Ohana's ANPDP signature, which needs to come through. //shb (t | c | m) 22:40, 8 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
