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

Shortcut:
SRGR
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.

:''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.

Global sysop for Hasley

Status:    In progress
Not ending before 12 May 2020 14:46 UTC

Hello everyone! I am Hasley, an active SWMT member in cross-wiki anti-spam/vandalism works. I am a global rollbacker and have sysop-experience on three projects.

Global sysop toolkit would be quite useful for me. I have:

  • tagged more than 1,000 pages for speedy deletion using SWViewer up to January. I would like to help with xwiki deletions and SRM/GSR backlog;
  • reverted and reported via SRG/#wikimedia-stewards hundreds of LTAs from many GS-projects. Sometimes massive vandals/spambot attacks also appear. I think being able to block them would help tremendously.

My mother tongue is Spanish, I can read an, ast, ca, cbk, co, ext, fr, gl, ia, it, lad [Latin script], lmo, nap, oc, pap, pms, pt, rm and vec. I have carefully read the global policy. Two-factor authentication is enabled. Please let me know if you have any questions. Kind regards, —Sgd. Hasley 14:46, 28 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Global IP block exempt for JJonahJackalope

Status:    Done

Recently received an IP block with the reason being "long-term abuse" made by User:Green Giant. The blocked range is 2600:387:2:800:0:0:0:0/60 . Thanks, --JJonahJackalope (talk) 00:04, 6 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Global IP block exempt for Pompilos

Status:    In progress

I always use a VPN service to access internet for privacy reasons (avoid tracking of my activity by my internet provider and others). The proxy servers of the VPN service are usually locked for editing WP, so that I have to unconnect from VPN and reconnect again everytime I want to make any edition. I would appreciate to get a global IP block exemption. Thanks, --Pompilos (talk) 11:45, 6 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
