This page hosts requests for global permissions. To make a request, read the relevant policy (global rollback, global sysop) and make a request below. Explain why membership is needed for that group, and detail prior experience or qualifications.
Any active Wikimedia editor may participate in the discussion, though only stewards may use {{yes}} or {{no}} templates.
Please note that Global rollbackers discussions are not votes. Comments must present specific points in favor of or against a user's approval.
Instructions for making a request
Before requesting, make sure that:
You have sufficient activity to meet the requirements to be allocated the global rollback flag
To make a request
Copy the template below to the bottom of this section and explain of why you need the access and why you're suitable.
=== Global rollback for {{subst:u|{{subst:REVISIONUSER}}}} ===
{{sr-request
|status = <!-- don't change this line -->
|domain = global <!-- don't change this line -->
|user name = {{subst:REVISIONUSER}} <!-- don't change this line unless you're nominating another user -->
}}
::''Not ending before {{subst:#time:j F Y H:i|+5 days}} UTC''
The request will be approved if consensus to do so exists after a period of consideration of no less than 5 days (with rare exceptions, no matter how obvious the result may seem). This is not a vote, and all input is welcome. Stewards will determine whether consensus exists; when doing so it is likely that the weight given to the input of those involved in cross-wiki work will be most influential.
Hi. Most of my cross-wiki vandalism fighting dates to last year, however, this is do to an extended wikibreak I took at the beginning of the year. I have reverted vandalism cross-wiki on several projects including: bar, ca, el, enwb, eu, gl, and several others. I am a sysop on the Simple English Wikipedia, and the multilingual Wikisource, and a rollbacker at enWP and commons, where I have been active fighting vandalism in the past. Thanks for your consideration. Maximillion Pegasus16:37, 17 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
When you give someone global sysop rights, please list them on [[<tvar name="T:GS">Template:List of global sysops</tvar>|Users with global sysop access]] and ask them to subscribe to the [[<tvar name="2">mail:global-sysops</tvar>|global sysops mailing list]].</translate>

The request will be approved if consensus to do so exists after a period of consideration of no less than two weeks (no exceptions are allowed no matter how obvious the result may seem). This is not a vote, and all input is welcome. Stewards will determine whether consensus exists; when doing so it is likely that the weight given to the input of those involved in cross-wiki work will be most influential. Please note: Since 2019 all global sysops are required to have two-factor authentication (2FA) enabled.</translate>
Hi, I'd like to ask for global sysop rights. I'm sysop in jawp and Commons, and a member of OTRS. In ja sister projects such as wikisource there are few sysops in daytime, so when I find a cross-wiki vancal who uses Japanese language, I have to ask stewards for help. Of course stewards are very kind and helpful, though, most of them don't understand Japanese. I believe a global sysopship would allow me to block cross-wiki vandals (mainly coming from ja projects) efficiently by myself instead of asking stewards for help. Thank you.--miya22:51, 4 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment First off, I noticed that you have a number of unattached accounts. Secondly, while you have some cross-wiki experience I see little that indicates and sort of anti-vandalism work. Would you mind providing me with some examples of your cross-wiki anti-vandalism work? Tiptoetytalk07:27, 5 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for your comment. Yes, I have 6 unattached accounts. Should I merge them first? Then I shall withdraw this request. As to the second, my main cross-wiki activity is to request for help on IRC (#wikimedia-stewards) when I find vandals in RC of ja sister projects which language most stewards don't understand. If I could block vandals in such cases by myself, it would be more efficient. Isn't it enough? If there were a status which allow sysopship across sister projects of a certain language, I would have applied for it.--miya17:24, 6 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Miya is a well-known and highly trusted editor in ja. I like the idea of "a status of sysopship across projects of a certain language". It's certainly a natural request. (In fact, it would be nice to have a status which automatically granted sysop status across {projects of that language with fewer than 5 sysops} -- for small languages one could simple grant that right to all sysops on any project.) –SJ+16:12, 9 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - Sorry, but I don't see the necessary crosswiki activity for such a tool. By your statement it looks to me, that you don't want to use the mop across all wikis where it is needed. If you need the sysop tool just on ja.wikis, so apply for the mop locally and get a regular adminship. Sorry, I don't actually see any need for you having this tool.

Support I confess here is COI; I'm sysop on jaWN and jaWQ but not active 24/7. Other helpful and trusted hands are welcome, even in a limited scope. --Aphaia01:06, 10 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Support - Miya is a trustworthy cross-wiki contributor; I have full confidence in their ability to use the global sysop right responsibly. Languages are good, as well. –Juliancolton | Talk21:06, 12 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Support It isn't bad that you will fight mostly japanese vandals. I think it would be better to have one global flag than gather flags on dozen different wikis. I believe that you will not missuse this strictly technical tool.--Dima io13:26, 18 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
There needs to be some general discussion then. It can't just be arbitrary by telling some people, "ok, go ahead and limit yourself," and tell others, "rejected, get local flags." Seb az8655618:35, 20 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
