Steward requests/Global permissions
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).

Global IP block exempt for Liouxiao
- Global user: Liouxiao (edits (alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)
Hi, my VPN IP address (162.220.14.232) is in the block IP range, I cannot edit articles (especially at zh.wikisource.org) most of time in the past several months. Could you unblock the IP address of 162.220.14.232? Or could you at least unblock it only with a logged-in user (like me)? Thanks, --Liouxiao (talk) 12:53, 4 January 2020 (UTC)
Global IP block exempt for Horzagger
- Global user: Horzagger (edits (alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)
Hello, I am a nomad worker around the world and I very often connect on the Net with unsecured connections, then I prefer to use a VPN, and I use Tor in some regions of the world. I need to be allowed to connect with my VPN and with Tor on Wikipedia. (I have sign up on fr.wikipedia with my VPN, and I want to participate on several wikis of the Wikimedia Foundation). Thanks, --Horzagger (talk) 03:36, 5 December 2019 (UTC)
- @Horzagger: All your edits are only to this cite? Ruslik (talk) 09:32, 11 December 2019 (UTC)
- @Ruslik0: Hello, sorry I'm new on Wikipedia, and I can't edit because all the IP addresses I'm probably going to use are blocked on Wikipedia. --Horzagger (talk) 15:59, 11 December 2019 (UTC)
- @Horzagger: Which project do you plan to contribute to? --Jyothis (talk) 15:26, 27 December 2019 (UTC)

Global IP block exempt for CoconutLord80
- Global user: CoconutLord80 (edits (alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)
<(Sorry for spelling errors) I use Cloudflare's DNS service 1.1.1.1 , as well as a VPN ocaionaly. I love editing Wikipedia and making it a better sight. My ISP's DNS is extremely slow so it is extremely hard for me to edit without 1.1.1.1. I need this exemption because otherwise, I will not be able to edit Wikipedia and make it better. I hope that you will understand my situation and help me. >, thanks, --~~~~
- You can use 1.1.1.1 DNS service without the VPN by selecting "1.1.1.1" and not "1.1.1.1 with WARP+" option in the settings of your 1.1.1.1 app. If your DNS is the only problem, you can simply use the 1.1.1.1 settings without the VPN. Is it sufficient or do you still need VPN after trying that options? — regards, Revi 01:11, 21 December 2019 (UTC)
- (Even though your mobile OS will report you have connected to "VPN server", for simple 1.1.1.1 settings, it only routes DNS traffic to Cloudflare, and all other traffic doesn't route Cloudflare. WARP+ routes all traffic through Cloudflare.) — regards, Revi 01:12, 21 December 2019 (UTC)

Global IP block exempt for 恨国党非蠢即坏
- Global user: 恨国党非蠢即坏 (edits (alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)
I would like to contribute to en:wikt (edits I've made). But I need an open VPN to connect now. Please give me an IP block exemption. Thanks, --恨国党非蠢即坏 (talk) 10:26, 3 January 2020 (UTC)
You should request local ipbe on the enwiktonary. I don't found any xwiki edits. So gipbe may not be a good solution for you. Renamed user uofgjwfojfowubwofemipvwjboiw (talk) 11:26, 3 January 2020 (UTC)
@User:Renamed user uofgjwfojfowubwofemipvwjboiw But I am sure I am blocked by a global ban. A global exemption is a natural solution to a global ban. If the ban on me is undue on en.wikt, so it should be elsewhere. And I may edit on some more wiki projects in the future. 恨国党非蠢即坏 (talk) 19:14, 3 January 2020 (UTC)
Global IP block exempt for Hasley
- Global user: Hasley (edits (alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)
Please restore GIPBE right. I have the same problems with censorship again. Thanks. —Sgd. Hasley 20:40, 5 January 2020 (UTC)
Global IP block exempt for 陳白腸
- Global user: 陳白腸 (edits (alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)
wikipedia is mostly censored in my country, thanks, --陳白腸 (talk) 04:17, 6 January 2020 (UTC)
Global IP block exempt for 佛祖西来
- Global user: 佛祖西来 (edits (alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)
Wikipedia is blocked in my country, so I need an GIPBE for editing, thanks, --佛祖西来 (talk) 02:49, 7 January 2020 (UTC)
Global IP block exempt for XanonymusX
- Global user: XanonymusX (edits (alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)
On August 4th, Jon Kolbert blocked the South-Tyrolean public train wifi (“RailLAN”) as an open proxy. I am spending a lot of time on those trains and necessarily have to use that network; I have already been unblocked on deWP and testwiki, but since I usually switch between a number of projects (Italian and English WP, most importantly), a global exemption should be the best solution (if the IP block has to be kept in place). Thanks, --XanonymusX (talk) 18:12, 7 January 2020 (UTC)

2FA Tester for Wintonian
- Global user: Wintonian (edits (alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)
Have been adding 2FA where possible over the last few months, and due to change of ISP I no longer have a static IP address to print on my user page. Documentation has been read. Thanks. --Wintonian (talk) 08:18, 7 January 2020 (UTC)
