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).
Please note that Global rollbackers discussions are not votes. Comments must present specific points in favor of or against a user's approval.
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

|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.
Hello! I am SCP-2000 and a rollbacker in zhwiki, wikidata, and commonswiki now. I usually revert vandalism in cross-wiki (See also my global contribution). I would like to request global rollback permission so that help me revert vandalism rapidly. Thank you!--SCP-200012:04, 21 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Weak support On shwiki, hrwiki, huwiki and slwiki, I noticed your cross-wiki spam tagging, which your undo edits was reverted by other user on April 2020. Your undo edits on other wikis seems to current. Local users there didn't intervene for your edits. I also see that some of your vandal reports on enwiki have been completed. Even though you don't have a very active cross-wiki activity, you have a cross-wiki activity for nearly 60 wikis from time to time. --Uncitoyentalk18:43, 22 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Seems a little too soon. And edit matrix (i.e. crosswiki contributions) seems a little lacking. No red flags but then not much valid use case anyway. Not giving support but not opposing either. Camouflaged Mirage (talk) 11:49, 24 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Neutral to make things clearer, and my comments here for another candidate also applies. I don't see them having a trust problem either as they can be trusted, is just there isn't a clear use case (elaborated above in the another application).

Hi, I'm Jan Myšák and I'm a cswiki sysop. I've been doing RC patrol there for over a year, I revert cross-wiki vandalism using SWViewer and I also patrol on enwiki using Twinkle. Hence global rollback would come in handy for me. Best, --Jan Myšák (talk) 19:04, 25 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I don't see any cross-wiki evidence? The edit matrix is bad, and your statement mentions work only in cswiki and enwiki (which has its own rollback procedure if you are looking for that). GR is generally for users who work on several wikis. Leaderboard (talk) 19:11, 25 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Well, he's active much more in this month, but not only, see [1], [2] or [3]. GR should not be that big deal, in my opinion, trusted users from medium/large wikis with some experience in xwiki patrolling should be considered. However, I fully respect your opinion. Martin Urbanec (talk) 19:30, 25 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Weak support He/she is an admin on cswiki. There has been a cross-wiki activity of about 60-70 wikis for the last 2 weeks. Maybe he/she could be a little more active before this request. However, there are a few edits he/she has undone between August and November. For these reasons, I can't directly oppose this request and can't give full support. Thank for your edits. --Uncitoyentalk20:41, 25 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Neutral While the fact that they are a sysop on cswp prove they are reliable, but to be honest we are seeing very little of crosswiki activity (mainly due to them starting for 1 month only per 1997kB). I am seeing this and the above application as premature, there is no doubt they can be trusted (just as SCP-2000), but then there isn't much use cases (like heavy use of undos until the point a rollback will be preferred - to be honest undos aren't that painful). GR isn't a very big deal either so that partly negates. I really don't see a real reason to oppose, but doesn't see a real reason to support either. Hence, I am neutral here.

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.
Hello. I am active member of OTRS team and an administrator on the Persian wikipedia. My main concern for this request is non-Latin user names and abuses that It may cause because of similarities, I think an admin who knows these languages (Arabic and Persian scripts) is vital for global rename team.
I have read and understood all relevant rename policies and with global renamer I would help reduce the rename backlogs and contribute to a speedier block review process, easing the burden on other global renamers. Thanks for your consideration. Déjà vu • ✉19:09, 19 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Support He/she was an eliminator (like half-admin on fawiki) for 2 years. Now, he is an admin since 3 months. I think he/she know very well this project. To be elected for these rights, he/she must know to certain rules. He/she blocked some inappropriate usernames. There are 1 global renamer and 1 steward who speak Persian. He/she can help with requests related fawiki. --Uncitoyentalk21:02, 19 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Your request might be rejected if you don't follow the instructions. Please review Global IP block exemption. You may request Global IP block exemption via stewardswikimedia.org if you can not edit this page.
Please note: Global IP block exemption does NOT make one immune to locally-created blocks of any sort, only global blocks.
If you want to edit the Chinese Wikipedia, usually global IP block exemptions will not help you. Please see this instruction to request a local IP block exemption.
