This page hosts requests for global permissions. To make a request, read the relevant policy (global rollback , global sysop , global rename , …) and make a request below. Explain why membership is needed for that group, and detail prior experience or qualifications.

This is not a vote and any active Wikimedia editor may participate in the discussion.

Global rollback and global interface editor requests require no fewer than 5 days of discussion while abuse filter helper and maintainer requests require no fewer than 7 days. Global renamer and global sysop requests require no fewer than 2 weeks of discussion. For requests that are unlikely to pass under any circumstances, they may be closed by a steward without further discussion (after a reasonable amount of input).

Meta-Wiki requests


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.

Requests for global sysop 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 sysops policy.
Stewards
When you give someone global sysop rights, please list them on Users with global sysop access and ask them to subscribe to the global sysops mailing list.
Instructions for making a request

Before requesting, make sure that:

  1. You have a global account ;
  2. You are logged in on this wiki, and the account is part of your global account;
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. If you previously requested that right, please add a link to the previous discussion(s).
=== Global sysop 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|+2 week}} UTC''

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.


Requests for global IP block exemption

Please be sure to follow the instructions below:
Your request might be rejected if you don't follow the instructions. Please review Global IP block exemption. You may request Global IP block exemption via stewards(_AT_)wikimedia.org if you can not edit this page.
Please note: Global IP block exemption does NOT make one immune to locally-created blocks of any sort, only global blocks.
Instructions for making a request

Before requesting global IP block exemption, make sure that:

  1. You have a global account ;
  2. You are logged in on this wiki, and the account is part of your global account;
To request global IP block exemption
Copy the template below to the bottom of this section and explain why you need the access and why you're suitable. If needed, link to relevant discussions.
=== Global IP block exempt for {{subst:u|{{subst:REVISIONUSER}}}} ===
{{sr-request
 |status    = <!--don't change this line-->
 |domain    = global<!--don't change this line-->
 |user name = {{subst:REVISIONUSER}}
}}
<Add an explanation here>, thanks, --~~~~

The request will be approved if there is demonstrated need for the permission, such as bypassing a global block from someone who is not the intended target.

Requests for global rename permissions

Steward requests/Global permissions/Global renamers

Global rename for Cyberpower678

Not ending before 12 January 2016 02:23 UTC
Hello. I am a user on the English Wikipedia and can speak both German and English. I primarily do bot work on enwiki, but also volunteer at ACC. For those not familiar with ACC, it is a place for new users to request accounts. ACC volunteers are privy to sensitive information, requiring users to be identified to the foundation. Working there requires me to be quite adept with username policy there, and sometimes, we are asked to change usernames. It would be useful as an ACCer that having someone with the ability to rename would be quite helpful. —cyberpower ChatHello! 02:23, 29 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Global rename for MusikAnimal

Not ending before 12 January 2016 04:32 UTC
See en:Wikipedia:Village pump (proposals)#Allow admins to rename users?, which arose due to the not-so-friendly procedure us admins employ when dealing with good-faith username violations. I am an admin on enwiki and run into this scenario quite a bit. We may try to send them to en:Wikipedia:Changing username, Special:GlobalRenameRequest, or perform a soft-block as necessary. Especially in the latter case, being able to do the rename myself would make the process much easier for the newcomer, and avoid all the scary templates, walls of text, and exposing of bureaucracy involved with the project -- when all they wanted to do was make some simple contributions but were unaware their username was an issue. They could simply tell me what they wanted to change it to and I'd do it right there and then, barring any concerns with the new username, and won't need to block the account at all. If granted this meta right, I'd primarily utilize it for the aforementioned use case, but being a backlog hater I'm sure I'd make my way here and at en:WP:CHUS to process requests. I realize username policy may vary wiki to wiki, but I suspect I could get away with using common sense. If they opt to go with a foreign language username (albeit discouraged for an English language project), I would be sure that the translation doesn't imply something inappropriate. Many thanks — MusikAnimal talk 04:32, 29 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
