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]

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.

Hi, I'm an bn-wikibooks Admin and also contribute in others wiki project. There have no rename user, As a result, if someone wants to change the username, it is not possible to do so at the local level. I have been a trusted administrator on Wikibooks for 4th term as an administrator and interface administrator. I also try to contribute to other language projects including Wikipedia, Commons.-Shahadat Hossain (talk) 16:45, 15 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support Support, Does have enough experience as an administrator on the Bangla Wikipedia, been serving our community for five years now. 113.158.209.121 03:59, 16 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Could you give an example of a user wanting their account renamed on bnwikibooks? Vermont (talk) 04:14, 16 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • Vermont Since Wikibooks does not have a renamer, users are encouraged to apply to Meta. Wikibooks has stopped accepting renaming applications on its project page. Please check bn wikibooks project page. If I get this right, it is possible to apply for name change in that project. I am also active in other projects, I can work on all those projects, such as Wikipedia, Wikivoyage, Commons and others. You can trust me as a loyal user. I also previously worked as an OTRS member. In addition, I was honored as the Asian Ambassador in 2019 in the Bengali Wikipedia project, see here.-Shahadat Hossain (talk) 06:01, 16 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
