    Administrator Elections | Call for Candidates

    [edit]
    Administrator Elections | Call for Candidates

    The administrator elections process has officially started! Interested editors are encouraged to self-nominate or arrange to be nominated by reviewing the instructions at Wikipedia:Administrator elections/July 2025/Candidates.

    Here is the schedule:

    • July 9–15 - Call for candidates
    • July 18–22 - Discussion phase
    • July 23–29 - SecurePoll voting phase

    Please note the following:

    • The requirements to run are identical to RFA—a prospective candidate must be extended confirmed.
    • Prospective candidates are advised to become familiar with the community's expectations of administrators, which are much higher than the minimum requirement of having extended confirmed status. This includes reviewing successful and unsuccessful RFAs, reading the essay Wikipedia:Advice for RfA candidates, and possibly requesting an optional poll on their chances of passing.
    • The process will have a seven day call for candidates phase, a two day pause, a five day discussion phase, and a seven day private vote using SecurePoll. Discussion and questions are only allowed on the candidate pages during the discussion phase.
    • The outcome of this process is identical to making a request for adminship. There is no official difference between an administrator appointed through RFA versus administrator elections.
    • Administrator elections are also a valid means of regaining adminship for de-sysopped editors.

    Ask any questions about the process at the talk page. A separate user talk message will be sent to official candidates with additional information about the process.

    If you are interested in the process, please make sure to watchlist the appropriate pages. A watchlist notice will be added when the discussion phase opens, and again when the voting phase opens.
