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.

Global rollback for Hamish

Status:    In progress
Not ending before 18 May 2020 11:59 UTC

I've been monitoring global edits via SWViewer for a few months, I think I deserve this permission to help me do better. I am the sysop in both zhwiki and mediawiki.org, this makes me have a good understanding about the tool so I will use it properly. Regards, --Hamish 11:59, 13 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Add abusefilter-helper for Supertoff

I would like to understand the actions of private global filters and be able to help users who report false positives about them on frwiki. I am a sysop and an abusefilter editor on frwiki.

  • Question Question: Hi Supertoff, I could have a question for you: Could you describe the next script?
action = "edit" &
!("bot" in user_groups
| "sysop" in user_groups
| user_name in page_title) &
page_namespace = 2
Nieuwsgierige Gebruiker (talk) 14:07, 9 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Nieuwsgierige Gebruiker. A test to see if I understand filters ? Ok (I already made some of french filters) : This script is to detect edit on "user's page" when done by user except bot, sysop and page owner. Right ? Supertoff (talk) 15:31, 9 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
