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.

}}
:''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.

Requests for global rename permissions

Global rename for Nihonjoe

Status:    In progress
Not ending before 5 April 2022 00:53 UTC

I previously had global rename, but hadn't used it for a year so it was removed. I plan to be more involved in this now. In the years I previously had it (including when it was part of the English Wiki Bureaucrat role), I handled it well. Thanks! ···日本穣? · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe 00:53, 22 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Requests for global IP block exemption

Shortcut:
SRIPBE

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 stewards(_AT_)wikimedia.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.
Instructions for making a request

Before requesting global IP block exemption, 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 request global IP block exemption
Copy the template below to the bottom of this section and explain why you need the access and why you're suitable. If needed, link to relevant discussions.
=== Global IP block exempt for {{subst:u|{{subst:REVISIONUSER}}}} ===
{{sr-request
 |status    = <!--don't change this line-->
 |domain    = global<!--don't change this line-->
 |user name = {{subst:REVISIONUSER}}
}}
<Add an explanation here>, thanks, --~~~~

The request will be approved if there is demonstrated need for the permission, such as bypassing a global block from someone who is not the intended target.

Global IP block exempt for Joytz

Status:    In progress

I'm in China and need proxy to accelerate access to Wikipedia for educational purposes. Info: "Your current IP address is 172.104.127.197 and the block ID is #361743". I'm requesting for global IP block exemption permission., thanks, --Joytz (talk) 04:04, 5 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Joytz: If you want to the edit Chinese Wikipedia, please follow the instruction on this page; if you want to edit the English Wikipedia, please read this section and send an email. Global IP block exemption permission does not allow you to edit either two sites. Stang 16:26, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I thought you need a global IP block exemption first and then you can request local IP block exemption? Joytz (talk) 03:37, 14 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Also, should I be asking for this in case I need to edit in the future but cannot, or should I ask this only when there is something I want to edit now? Joytz (talk) 03:39, 14 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
No, global IPBE is not a prerequisite for local IPBE. You could request for now if you though it is useful even in the future, but at least you need to clarify which project(s) you intended to edit. Stang 01:49, 16 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
{{notdone}} No response. -- Amanda (she/her) 23:11, 13 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Global IP block exempt for Daemonspudguy

Status:    In progress

I want to add JavaScript to my Wikipedia account, but my IP address (in range 3.139.79.129)is blocked, thanks, --Daemonspudguy (talk) 14:07, 16 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Global IP block exempt for Kaue548

Status:    In progress

When I try to edit from school I am blocked at all times and I can't edit my talk page or sandbox on Wikipedia it makes it quite hard to edit a draft I am working on. The school Wifi uses AWS for wifi and that makes it basically impossible for me to edit my draft. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Kaue548 (talk)

Global IP block exempt for Iljadrip

Status:    In progress

I escaped Russia to a west european country I would rather not disclose, being a young man afraid being called in to a war i do not want to fight. Now I cant edit because my IP is global blocked as open proxy. I dont use VPN, this is apartment complex internet. --Iljadrip (talk) 03:29, 24 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
