Steward requests (Global permissions)

latest archive→

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).

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 DARIO SEVERI

Status:    In progress

• Global user: DARIO SEVERI (edits ^(alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)

Not ending before 25 April 2016 06:16 UTC

I have been editing since 2011 and I am currently a rollbacker in the English, Italian and Spanish. I am also a sysop in Portuguese Wikipedia with 14,000 administrative actions. Most of my 51,000 editions as editor is reverting vandalism or minor corrections in articles. Lately I have been active in reversing vandalism in several other Wikipedias. I would be grateful if you would consider me for the Global rollback flag. Any questions please do not hesitate to contact me. DARIO SEVERI (talk) 06:16, 20 April 2016 (UTC)

I am focusing my edits to revert vandalism in just over 50 wikis, because I do not see in Global rollback policy a minimum number, it cites only that the users must demonstrate heavy use of revert on many wikis. Excluding my home wiki (pt) I have over 10,000 edicts (cross-wiki experience) and thousands are related to vandalism (please see (en), (fr), (nl), (simple), (tr), (ca), (es), (it), etc. wikipedias). DARIO SEVERI (talk) 19:24, 23 April 2016 (UTC)

All the wikis you mention there are so-called big wikis, mostly with own governance of the rollback permission. --Vogone (talk) 14:49, 27 April 2016 (UTC)

•  Support, trusted user. It is very active in projects. -ks ^｢Talk｣ 22:12, 20 April 2016 (UTC).
•  Support. Activity is ok and it has been demonstrated. Besides, there are no concerns whatsoever in my opinion. Keep up the good work. RadiX∞ 03:02, 21 April 2016 (UTC)
•  Support -FASTILY 03:05, 21 April 2016 (UTC)
•  Oppose, for now. I see reverts on less than 60 wikis. Matiia (talk) 03:21, 21 April 2016 (UTC)
•  Support, trusted and active. Érico (talk) 03:27, 21 April 2016 (UTC)

•  Support seems fine. xaosflux ^Talk 02:41, 22 April 2016 (UTC)
•  Support, K'n-yan (msg) 09:33, 22 April 2016 (UTC)
•  Oppose per Matiia. --Steinsplitter (talk) 10:22, 22 April 2016 (UTC)
• Oppose, as per Matiia, activity is insufficient as of now. Please keep up the work and I will happily reconsider in case of a later application. --Vogone (talk) 11:59, 22 April 2016 (UTC)
•  Support he's present on it.wiki and a trusted user; tools like global rollbacking exist to be used, not as acknowledgement for some past work: if he will not use it, just remove--Shivanarayana (talk) 12:06, 22 April 2016 (UTC)
  • That cannot be done under current policy. --Rschen7754 05:12, 24 April 2016 (UTC)
    • I know User:Rschen7754, but in Special:GlobalUsers/global-rollbacker I can easily find active GRs who don't have the xwiki activity of Dario, that's all :-)-Shivanarayana (talk) 10:51, 25 April 2016 (UTC)
• Oppose. As above, I think his experiences in the SWMT area is currently not high enough. --MF-W 14:53, 22 April 2016 (UTC)
•  Support it would be better if they had more SWMT experience but I see no problems. Reguyla (talk) 19:43, 22 April 2016 (UTC)
•  Oppose, would like to see more activity, for longer time, many of your edits on your non-homewiki projects were made very recently, and most of them weren't undoing. --Stryn (talk) 08:50, 23 April 2016 (UTC)
•  Support --James970028 (talk) 10:42, 23 April 2016 (UTC)
•  weak oppose, per Stryn, would be happy to support later after gaining some more cross-wiki experience. Thanks for your contributions.—Ah3kal (talk) 18:14, 23 April 2016 (UTC)
•  Support has considerable xwiki experience reverting past language barriers, even if they aren't active with the SWMT. Ajraddatz (talk) 05:03, 24 April 2016 (UTC)
• Neutral Probably would be okay with the tool considering other userrights but most of the crosswiki activity isn't reverts. --Rschen7754 05:12, 24 April 2016 (UTC)
•  weak oppose per MF-W. Plus, I couldn't see heavy use of reverts globally.[1]--Infinite0694 (Talk) 14:54, 24 April 2016 (UTC)
•  Oppose Per all other opposes. eurodyne (talk) 19:39, 24 April 2016 (UTC)
•  Support trusted user active on a large number of projects. Omni Flames ^{let's talk about it} 00:25, 25 April 2016 (UTC)

•  Support It is sysop in pt.wiki, so there is confidence that the tool will use well. --File:Alvaro Molina.png Alvaro Molina (Let's Talk) 20:58, 26 April 2016 (UTC)

•  Support very constructive user, will make good use of the tool.--Druddigon (talk | contributions) 21:25, 26 April 2016 (UTC)

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.
