The [[meta:Stewards/elections 2009|Stewards election 2009]] has begun on February 1, 2009 and will end on February 22, 2009.
 
[[meta:Stewards|Stewards]] perform technical tasks on all Wikimedia wikis, based on community consensus: modifying user access, viewing user information in cases of abuse, and so on (see [[meta:Stewards|details]]). While new Stewards are elected, current Stewards are to be confirmed. The [[meta:Wikimedia Board of Trustees|Board of Trustees]] will select new Stewards from the applicants in this election.
