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 rename for Superpes15

Hi everyone, I'm Superpes15, I'm a rollbacker on wikidata and a sysop on it.wiki. I'm also a x-wiki patroller. As a patroller and administrator I have often dealt with users with inappropriate usernames. I've read several policies on inappropriate usernames and I think the itwiki policy is one of the most rigid (but effective against vandalism). I've read and understood the global rename policy and the global renamers policy and I think (and hope) that I can help out with renaming. Obviously, in case of doubt, I would always turn to the most experienced. Thanks for your comments and for attention. --Superpes15 (talk) 16:57, 3 September 2020 (UTC)

- Support I can see he has a lot of experience on Italian Wikipedia. He has blocked hundreds of inappropriate usernames since he is an admin and he knows many of his main wiki's policies. Italian Wikipedia is one of the biggest wikis, there can be a lot of rename requests. There seem to be two global renamers whose native language is Italian for now. He can help other global renamers at this point. Good luck. --Uncitoyentalk 11:05, 5 September 2020 (UTC)

Global rename for A

Hi everyone, I'm Chloe from Vietnamese Wikipedia. I'd like to help out the global and local renaming processing by requesting for the global renamer right. I am an OTRS member as well as an eliminator on the Vietnamese Wikipedia, a user group that does not exist in many Wikipedias but has the right to make certain admin actions. The main reason I am requesting this right is because there's currently a lack of global renamers on vi.wiki, since both global renamers are busy with their personal lives and are currently on Wikibreak. There're currently some requests that have not been approved for weeks. With this right, I would help reduce the local and global rename backlog. Thank you very much for your time and consideration! --阿 talk 20:47, 6 September 2020 (UTC)
- Weak support, there clearly is a need for these permissions. Cheers! Nadzik (talk) 07:16, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

- Weak support It is eliminator (such as half-admin) on the Vietnamese Wikipedia. I couldn’t see its actions for usernames rules from its contributions and logs (maybe I'm misunderstanding this because I don't speak Vietnamese, I would be glad if you tell the truth with your arguments). But it is obvious that knows the Vietnamese Wikipedia. Maybe it can help username processes. --Uncitoyentalk 14:15, 8 September 2020 (UTC)

I am a sysop of Vietnamese Wikipedia. In our project (viwiki), we receive the rename requests every week [1] but seem that only 1997kB works on it. Therefore, I request this right for a local admin to solve the rename requests more efficiently. Alphama (talk) 21:32, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
- Support I think you understand the rules as admin from the logs (blocking the some inappropriate username) and contributions. It can facilitate renamer processes with the languages that it understands. --Uncitoyentalk 14:15, 8 September 2020 (UTC)

Requests for global IP block exemption

ADD Global IP block exempt for Marek Torba
- Global user: Marek Torba (edits (alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)
Hi, I would like to ask for an IP block exemption for the abovementioned user. As noted on his pl.wiki userpage, this is a staffer of a Polish museum (Wawel Royal Castle in Cracow), taking a part in the most recent GLAM partnership of Wikimedia Polska. The global IP block removal is vital for e.g. Commons work and upload. On behalf of the WMPL, aegis maelstrom δ 19:14, 5 September 2020 (UTC)

New wikis importer for Sotiale
- Global user: Sotiale (edits (alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)
Hello! I'd like to propose that Sotiale be addded as a new wikis importer to support our small team. As a sysop on BetaWikiversity and Incubator, Sotiale is already well-acquainted with the creation process of new wikis. Thanks to his experience with numerous other permissions, I am sure Sotiale will also be able to execute this task impeccably. --MF-W 22:43, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

- Previously new wikis importer flag was not removed when a user with the flag was elected to new stew. This is just my guess(If anyone knows, please help!), but it seems to differentiate between stews normal worklist and the new wikis importing. I don't care if I can work either way =) [And because I'm scared of going through any RFP process] --Sotiale (talk) 14:57, 8 September 2020 (UTC)

- Sorry, I usually look the other page. For example, if Sotiale resigns from stewardship in the future, such as MF-Warburg, can register this right automatically. --Uncitoyentalk 14:21, 8 September 2020 (UTC)

Abuse filter helper for Pseudo Classes
- Global user: Pseudo Classes (edits (alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)
Hiya! I'd like to apply for abuse filter helper, because I often view the private abuse filters to understand the settings. As the former rollbacker in zhwiki, I think I've gained a lot of experience in using this right over the months. Pseudo Classes (talk) 16:53, 9 September 2020 (UTC)
- How can you view the private filters when viewing them require a special right, like Abuse filter helper? Also, how did being a rollbacker help you with abuse filters? For what will you use the rights? --MF-W 21:14, 9 September 2020 (UTC)
