This page hosts requests for membership in an existing global group and for requesting Global (un)blocks, locks and hidings. Proposals for new groups should be made on Meta:Babel.

To make a request, read the relevant policy (global rollback, global bot, global blocking) and make a request below. Explain why membership is needed for that group, and detail prior experience or qualifications and for requesting a global block, please indicate why a global block is necessary and for how long.

Any active Wikimedia editor may participate in the discussion and vote.

Request for global (un)block

Unblock request for IP 85.71.45.169

I request a global unblock for IP address 85.71.45.169. User:Spacebirdy recently has given 85.71.45.169 a 3-month block, as this account was considered being a cross-wiki category vandal. Admittedly, these edits of this user from this IP address have some negative edit summaries and a bad username, but please don't consider this as such bad vandalism, warranting 3-month global block. The username " MorelikeMikethe will-never-get-a-wife guard lol " is clearly unacceptable (but hopefully the "lol" in the end can deem the name not so bad), I should've thought about that before I have created it. Also the edit smmaries can be considered a personal attack, however it is quite mild attack ("he's a lousy steward", "You bastard Mike, that work took me like 10 hours", "yeah, gonna flick your ears when I see you, for sure, Mike" "also, Mike, Im gonna shake my fist at you", "And I will spit in your djeneral deerection too, Mike.lifeugard - why the damn reverts to perfectly good edits", "I'mnot gonna send Mike/lifeguard any Xmas pressies next yr", "This Mike.lifeguard has some kind of anti-vandalism bot, which he can't be trusted to run" (OK, so "Bugger off Mike/lifeugard, whatssa-da-matter with you?" is not nice, I admit this. I was quite annoyed in this time), "you know what Mike/lifeguard, you should have some fucking lithuanian lessons", "seriously, this Bird from Space was an awesome contributor, you should be ashamed Mike.lifeguard" and my favorite one "Mike.lifeguard has an ugly neck". I am doing a lot of very useful category interwiki links in the other Wiktionarys, and since this last block in 2007 I did not do a single vandalism edit. Please consider to review these edits from IP address, and make up your minds if this is really 3-month-global-block vandalism. --Agricoleur 19:15, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I personally will not unblock it and ask another steward to review the issue. -> see also Vandalism_reports#Language-category-vandal for more information.

Agricoleur, I don't understand why You did that anyway, I have observed Your edits from "Agricoleur" and would not have taken action on this account, although other sysops asked me to because they were afraid You would continue with Your vandalism edits, but that editsummaries of the sock are totally unacceptable, which is why it got blocked. Best regards, --birdy geimfyglið _(:> )=| 19:20, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I understand the reason I did that - I'm just a bit immature I guess (nothing wrong with that lol!), hence the stupid edit summaries - I was unhappy with Mike.lifeguard, due to these reverts to my good edits (although I probably would do the same mass-revertion, if I were a steward in his situation). As for the socks, I'll stick with my one name. Maybe you can impose upon me some kind of final warning or something like that, this way I will be forced to behave. Anyway, thanks for replying - I've always appreciated you, Spacebirdy ;). And I'll give Mike a personally apology, in the case of getting unblocked. --Agricoleur 19:37, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You know what, give him the appology now (he has an account here on Meta, where You can still edit) and I will discuss that issue with my collegues, sleeping about it. Taking Your word that You will stick to one account and stopping to weave these things into Your contributions is a bit hard to do, because there is not much trust left in You, unfortunately. --birdy geimfyglið _(:> )=| 19:44, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding the crosswiki contributions of Your account Agricoleur [stalktoy] – [cross-wiki edits] at least lead me to [1] and [2] which does not convince me that You turned a new leaf.

I'd like to hear the opinions of other stewards now too, thanks, --birdy geimfyglið _(:> )=| 21:13, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The pt.wikt one was an accident. Sure, I can't prove this, but it was. --Agricoleur 21:45, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Global lock/unlock for Chipmunk63

Chipmunk63 (talk • contribs • block • xwiki-contribs • xwiki-date ^(alt) • CA • ST • lwcheckuser)

Why I was locked? I edit nothing except some soccer players stats, last October. --151.49.26.241 17:39, 6 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, the account "Chipmunk63" is not locked, it is not even possible to do that technically, because it is no sul account. Best regards, --birdy geimfyglið _(:> )=| 17:44, 6 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Requests for global permissions

Before requesting, make sure that:
- You have a global account;
- You are logged in on this wiki, and the account is part of your global account;
- You have read the relevant description page for the access you want (see Global rollback). Your request might be rejected if you don't follow their instructions, and not doing so would reflect poorly on your suitability.
To 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 [[user:Foo|Foo]]====
{{sr-request
 |status    = <!-- don't change this line -->
 |domain    = global <!-- don't change this line -->
 |user name = 
}}

The request will be approved if consensus to do so exists after a short period of consideration (typically approximately 3 days). If there is significant opposition, the discussion will require at least one week and 75% approval. 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 Crochet.david

Status: In progress

Global user: Crochet.david (edits ^(alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)

I resquest the rollback tool to make easier the undo on all the wikiversities. I check, as possible, all the RC of the wikiversities and the betawikiversity and sometime, they are some IP User (as zombies PC) that make idious modifications and the undo is not easy, mainly if 2 or more modifications are done. So I am aware that the tool help me only on wikiversities wiki because it's my main project and it's in there project that I made the undo action. Thanks to you.
