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 Ts12rAc

Status:    In progress
Not ending before 12 August 2021 19:19 UTC

Hello everyone! I'm Ts12rAc. I would like to request global rollback permission. I patrol small wikis by using filter log, TwinkleGlobal and SWViewer. Global rollback permissions would help me a lot doing crosswiki vandalism fighting. Thank you.--Ts12rAc (talk) 19:20, 7 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Global IP block exempt for Zbobai

Status:    In progress

Requesting again. It was rejected by Amanda; see Steward requests/Global permissions/2021-07#Global IP block exempt for Zbobai. This is a user who wants to contribute to Incubator, Commons, English Wikipedia, and Wikidata, hence he needs a global exemption and not something in a particular wiki. He cannot do it because his IP range is blocked, but he's not the vandal. He cannot make the request himself because he's blocked. --Amir E. Aharoni (talk) 08:04, 8 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It will proceed concurrently with the request below. --Sotiale (talk) 09:58, 9 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Global IP block exempt for Kambai Akau

Status:    In progress

Similar to the request about User:Zbobai above—they both mostly want to contribute new content in the Tyap language in the Incubator, and also content about their culture to Commons, English Wikipedia, and Wikidata, hence they need a global exemption and not something in a particular wiki. He cannot do it because his IP range is blocked, but he's not the vandal. He cannot make the request himself because he's blocked. --Amir E. Aharoni (talk) 08:04, 8 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Amire80: Hello. May I know why their IP range is blocked? If it is an open proxy or VPN, please explain why they should use it as well(eg. certain countries restrict access to Wikipedia). --Sotiale (talk) 09:58, 9 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Global IP block exempt for ShazidSharif

Status:    Done

Hello, I am from Bangla Wikipedia. On there I am an autopatroller, reviewer, rollbacker and member of ip block exempter. As I use share ip, I frequently face automatic global block. So, I want this right on my global account. Thanks, ShazidSharif (talk) 15:04, 8 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. Please let me know what other wikis you would like to edit. Also, could you explain what 'shared IP' means? Thank you. --Sotiale (talk) 10:30, 9 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, @Sotiale: thank you. I would like to edit on english wiki also. In our country internet service provider use two types of ip adress ; 1. Dedicated ip 2.Share ip.Shared IP can host most or all sites on a webserver. Because the IP address of a website is used for multiple sites on the server, the actions of one site owner can affect the IP reputation of everyone sharing that IP on the server. That's why I am offended many times by automatic global blocking. Think you get it.Regards.ShazidSharif (talk) 17:45, 9 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Done. Thank you for your reply. --Sotiale (talk) 10:50, 10 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Sotiale: thank you. ShazidSharif (talk) 14:59, 10 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
