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 ImprovedWikiImprovment

The following request is closed. Please do not modify it. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
Status:    Withdrawn
Not ending before 26 June 2020 02:36 UTC

I have been a global user for a number of years now. I also have an old account, WikiImprovment78, which I used between 2014 and 2018. Since then I've used this account. I have rollback currently on the English and Simple English Wikipedias. I would like global rollback to make anti-vandalism work easier on other wikis, such as meta. I want to move my anti-vandalism work more global as I have became involved with dealing with global LTAs on the simplewiki. I also have became involved recently with the SWMT, and I will monitor changes on its IRC channel. Thanks, IWI (chat) 02:36, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose. No xwiki experience, no demonstrated need. Your account have edits on 14 projects - most of which are on large wikis like enwiki and wikidatawiki. I see only one SWMT revert (which was made yesterday). Not now. Sgd. —Hasley 03:04, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Oppose You haven't enough cross-wiki activities. Why not if you become more active in the future? --Uncitoyentalk 08:20, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Oppose Well your crosswiki matrix shows that you have only edited 14 wiki on this account (1 or 2 are small wiki) 6 on other account you mentioned. Regretful to say but I don't consider this experience enough for global rights, particularly global rollback which is truly global. IMHO take some time and come back later. ‐‐1997kB (talk) 08:29, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong oppose because this user had been blocked at enwiki in February 2019. Nieuwsgierige Gebruiker (talk) 08:47, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
This was due to an isolated edit warring incident, from which actions I regret and will not repeat, for the record. IWI (chat) 09:00, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Global rollback for DutchTina

Status:    In progress
Not ending before 26 June 2020 16:26 UTC

I can't use SWViewer anymore since I don't have rollback anymore because I quit being a sysop at my former homewiki. I was planning to do some xwiki patrolling again today (and in the future) but this error showed up. I would love to spent my vacation being useful against xwiki vandalism again. :) DutchTina (talk) 16:26, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello everyone I'm Samuele2002 I'm global rollbacker since 2017 and I'm very active in the fight against vandalism and cross-wiki spam.
