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 rollback for Synoman Barris
- Global user: Synoman Barris (edits (alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)
- Not ending before 3 January 2022 21:13 UTC
Hello everyone, I would like to present myself to the community to volunteer for the role of a global Rollbacker. Firstly, I have been active in fighting cross wiki spam and vandalism in most wikis using the abuse log and SW viewer on almost a daily basis. I have a broad understanding on the use of rollback since am a Rollbacker in three projects. Secondly,I understand that this right will grant me autopatrol in all wikis and therefore I'll only revert clear cut vandalism and spam using it ( it would also be nice to not be stopped by the filters everytime I mark a userpage for spam) I ask the community to evaluate my contributions and trust me enough with this permission not to abuse it but to use it for the good of the projects. Cheers --MeganB... …till the end 21:13, 29 December 2021 (UTC)

autopatrol
, butautoreview
feature instead.--Renvoy (talk) 22:07, 30 December 2021 (UTC)- OT & clarification to a clarification: It does give
autopatrol
right in each and every wiki; some wikis just rely on autoreview instead. Even though, the autopatrol right is present (and does its job in places that aren't affected by FR). --Martin Urbanec (talk) 22:31, 30 December 2021 (UTC) - And it may also be worth mentioning that on enwiki all the pages you create as a global rollbacker will be unpatrolled by DannyS712 bot III if you don't have autopatrol. -- Ferien (talk) 22:41, 30 December 2021 (UTC)

Global rename for Lofty abyss
- Wiki: meta.wikimedia.org (list 'crats • bot policy • summary • 'crats rights)
- User: Lofty abyss (talk • edits • logs • UserRights • activity • CentralAuth • email • verify 2FA)
Happened to redirect someone asking for help on changing usernames through the VRT system, and was wondering if any direct help was needed (although probably not, considering the numbers that seem to do this already, but thought of asking anyway instead of just redirecting people and loading the system further). ~Lofty abyss 23:01, 29 December 2021 (UTC)

- No. Go use your other permissions. —Thanks for the fish! talk•contribs 00:41, 30 December 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose --Rschen7754 02:10, 30 December 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose Stop trying to bump the community into giving you permissions that you won't or rarely use. --Minorax«¦talk¦» 02:21, 30 December 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose I believe the user is already inactive enough for the roles they hold, let alone for any further rights. Not impressed by the nomination statement either. ~~~~
User:1234qwer1234qwer4 (talk) 04:15, 30 December 2021 (UTC) - Oppose Right now on simplewiki they are making loads of AWB changes to catch up with being completely inactive from February to December, so they meet the 100 edits/logged actions requirement for them to keep their admin bits on simplewiki. Considering they have been very inactive up until now and on 30 Dec they still haven't met the 100 edits minimum and when they were a steward they only made 12 renames, I think it is reasonable to assume they wouldn't use the global rename rights often. I think they need to use their other rights more, then we can speak about more global ones. --Ferien (talk) 10:18, 30 December 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose Hate pile on but they are a clear serial hat collector that don't actually use the tools they have. -Djsasso (talk) 14:32, 30 December 2021 (UTC)

Requests for global IP block exemption

Global IP block exempt for Guxiangli Tongguan
- Global user: Guxiangli Tongguan (edits (alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)
Hello everybody. I am a Chinese student living in Australia. I haven't been able to edit lately because of many blocked IP blocks. Therefore, I would like everyone to exempt me from IP. I need to always mask my IP address for reasons of my personal security and privacy. However, I am unable to make contributions to Wikimedia projects when I am logged in and accessing the Internet via an IP that happens to be blocked. I would greatly appreciate it if I were granted an exemption, so that I may continue to contribute to Wikimedia projects. I do not have any other account on Wikimedia projects.--Guxiangli Tongguan (talk) 03:58, 30 December 2021 (UTC)Guxiangli Tongguan

Global IP block exempt for Li_Dicker
- Global user: Li_Dicker (edits (alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)
Hello administerators.I'm Li_Dicker from China.When I was searching a Chinese actress tonight,I found it annoying that someone write Taiwan as an independent county. From ancient China to this moment,Taiwan has been part of territory of China.At the same time,United Nations has admitted that Taiwan is part of China.But some reactionary try to prowork disord to separate my country and some Taiwan people can't recogoniese the fact so that they write Taiwan as Republic of China not People's Republic of China .Now,as a Chinese citizen,I have to correct this mistake.But because of having to use proxy software to access Wikipedia,I can't correct the website.I hope administrators can give me the right to correct these mistakes(https://zh.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E5%AE%8B%E8%8A%B8%E6%A8%BA#).Thanks for your cooperation.
Note: I want to correct this mistake globally not just correct it on zhwiki.This is a global political problem.I want everyone have a correct cognition about Taiwan.As a Chinese, I obligated to correct these mistakes globally.Thanks for administrators and merry chrismas everyone.
Merry Christmas everyone!!--—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Li Dicker (talk) 15:01, 23 December 2021 (UTC)

Global IP block exempt for Din-nani1

Hello All Administrators, This is Abdul-Rasheed Yussif, User:Din-nani1 from Ghana. I am a Co-Founder of Dagbani Wikimedians User Group. Through hard work we have been given a new language Wikipedia i.e Dagbani Wikipedia. With this, there are a lot of newcomers that still need skills to be able to contribute to Wikimedia projects. I am one of the trainers of such contributors and usually juggle among the various Wikimedia projects in order to help editors to be able gain the relevant knowledge and skills required to contribute to the various projects of Wikimedia, this usually lands me into my IP address being blocked. It is for this reason that I request for Global IP Block exemption.Din-nani1 (talk) 06:57, 28 December 2021 (UTC)
- Hello @Din-nani1, thanks for the message! If you're using a VPN service, I recommend to disable it -- that should make you able to edit freely. If you're not using a VPN, I'd like to ask you to share the IP address you use, so we can investigate the block. If you don't want to do that publicly, you can email stewardswikimedia.org instead (just note the ticket number here [will come in an automated response], so we can follow-up quickly). Thanks!

- They want to have 2FA tester assigned to User 909080978978 so that they test how it works first. But Riurik is also the user that has requested me to lock WMFOffice on my talk page and asked all sorts of pointless questions so I am not sure where on the spectrum of "well this would not hurt" and "is this just another pointless thing?" to place this request. --Base (talk) 21:29, 28 December 2021 (UTC)

Global Interface Editor for Ladsgroup (extension)
- Global user: Ladsgroup (edits (alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)
- Not ending before 2 January 2022 01:51 UTC
Hi, I have had this right since Jan 2021 (discussion) and has done over 100,000 edits to fix deprecated javascript usages across all wikis. It enabled us to finally remove and close several really long standing tickets with next to none disruption like phab:T72470 (after seven years) and phab:T280944 (four years since upgrade to jq 3). I have reduced number of deprecation warnings from 20M per day to 1M per day (graph of 1:100 sampling). I'm planning to do more cleanups and then removals to make the site faster for everyone, including phab:T193314 and phab:T130879 and keeping the right would be useful for me. thanks, --Amir (talk) 01:51, 28 December 2021 (UTC)
