Importir

An importer is a user with import rights, generally speaking.

On Wikimedia wikis, there are two kinds of importers:

• transwiki importers can perform only transwiki import (import permission);

• importers can perform both transwiki and upload import (import and importupload permissions).

Import is a rarely needed feature; for instance, it's not needed for CC-BY-SA copyright compliance, see Terms of use.

These flags are enabled on all wikis, but can be assigned only by stewards after a request on dedicated page (especially the import flag which includes the importupload right which is particularly dangerous) and only on a temporary basis for a specific task, unless the project has a local process and policy to assign permanent import rights.

Very few projects need and have such a policy, including:

• German Wikipedia,
• English Wikibooks,
• French Wiktionary,
• Incubator,
• Italian Wiktionary,
• MediaWiki wiki (importers, transwiki importers).

Wikis where bureaucrats (or sysops) can assign import rights

On some wikis local bureaucrats (or sysops) can assign and remove import rights. Their list is in the Table below.
