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.

Requests for global sysop permissions

Shortcut:
SRGS
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 sysops policy.
Stewards
When you give someone global sysop rights, please list them on Users with global sysop access and ask them to subscribe to the global sysops mailing list.
Instructions for making a request

Before requesting, make sure that:

  1. You have a global account ;
  2. You are logged in on this wiki, and the account is part of your global account;
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. If you previously requested that right, please add a link to the previous discussion(s).
=== Global sysop for {{subst:u|{{subst:REVISIONUSER}}}} ===
{{sr-request
 |status    = <!-- 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|+2 week}} UTC''

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.

Global IP block exempt for Mirinano

Status:    In progress

I use Safari on my Mac and iPad to access Wikimedia. Recent global blocking has blocked editing from these devices. I'm temporarily logged in from Google Chrome, but I still want to edit in the familiar safari, so I request the global IP block exemption flag.

You were previously asked which country it was. Could you reply to that please? -- Amanda (aka DQ) 15:47, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Butcher2021: How were you able to post here? -- Jeff G. ツ (please ping or talk to me) 20:43, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Probably through some vpn. --Zabe (talk) 20:48, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Depending on the country, Meta might also not be blocked (especially since it uses a different domain, wikimedia.org). ~~~~

Sometimes meta is not blocked. I do not know how. Butcher2021 (talk) 20:39, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Global blocks do not apply on Meta, so stewards might have forgotten to block on Meta or deliberately left it unblocked. ~~~~

I`m in mainland China and I use VPN,but it always blocked ,so I ask to unblock. thanks, --Rizīka (talk) 13:03, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Rizīka, it looks the majority of your edits are at English Wikipedia. Could you please first request a local exemption there? The process is explained at en:WP:IPECPROXY. Once the request is granted, we'll gladly consider granting a global exemption. Best, Martin Urbanec (talk) 16:42, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Global IP block exempt for 07

Status:    In progress

I often contribute Wikipedia from public Wi-Fi, and I found out that the IP address of a Starbucks in Berlin, where I often contribute from was globally blocked because of being a webhost. For this reason, I demand a global IP block exempt, if possible. Thank you. --07 (talk) 16:26, 5 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
