Requests for global rollback permissions

Please be sure to follow the instructions below:
Your request might be rejected if you don't follow the instructions, and not doing so would reflect poorly on your suitability.
Please also review the Global rollback policy.
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.

Global rollback for JenVan

The following request is closed. Please do not modify it. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

Hello there! I would like to get global rollback for more operative vandalism reverting. I understand the GR policy and think this flag will be useful for me. Example of my anti-vandalism work you can find at commons, en-wikibooks, ru-wiki and other projects. Thanks, JenVan (talk) 14:54, 27 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Global IP block exempt for Paul 1953

I do not quite understand why my IP has been globally blocked. I am currently unable to edit on Wikipedia due to this block.

According to whatismyip.com, my IP Address is 58.146.174.149. According to my computer however, my IP Address is 192.168.2.4. Thanks, --Paul 1953

Odd, according to stalktoy for 58.146.174.149 there's no global block that would affect that IP. The 192.168.2.4 address is a local network address which isn't used on the internet - One is assigned to systems on home networks by the router, for instance. Let's see what some others think about this ... I probably just missed something in my first check. Kylu 13:46, 17 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Maybe he means 202.156.14.10? [1] That IP is globally blocked. Jafeluv 13:48, 17 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
See? Missed something. Kylu 14:03, 17 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
192.168.2.4 is your internal IP-address (within your home Network), 58.146.174.149 is the IP address that is used for the Internet (so the relevant one). But 58.146.174.149 has neither a global block (1) or a local block on enwiki (1) on it (it even hasn't got any contributions 1), so it might be the wrong IP address (the IP address you made this contribution with has been globally blocked (1), so I presume it's the right one). But that doesn't really matter.
Notice: To receive a global flag you need a global account account - Hoo man (talk) 13:49, 17 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
On the other hand, if you only edit enwiki you can request local IP block exemption there. No need for a global flag. Jafeluv 14:16, 17 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Paul 1953 here. I can't edit my talk page. By the way, reason given for block was open proxy. 14:32, 18 December 2010 (UTC)
I've given you local exemption on the English Wikipedia. PeterSymonds 17:02, 18 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
