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
|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.
When you give someone global rename rights, please add them to the list of global renamers and ask them to subscribe to the global renamers' mailing list.

=== Global rename for {{subst:u|{{subst:REVISIONUSER}}}} ===

|domain = meta.wikimedia <!-- 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). While all input is welcome, there is a hard 80% support requirement for this role as per the global renamer policy.
I am applying for global rename permissions because many people go through the stress of having a “bad name” that they would like to get rid of. In fact, I experienced this, and I want to help others who may want to change their usernames. A little bit of information about me is that I am from Codrington, Antigua and Barbuda, and I am very interested in politics and demography. I think I am a qualified candidate because…
I would have a very quick response time, as I spend most of my day working on a Wikimedia projects.
I am online whenever I can access the internet.
Although I cannot say I am perfect, I am getting better at dealing with people who may be a little angry.
When dealing with requests, I will be as neutral as possible, and, unless the name may be interpreted as offensive by others, give them the username they would like.
I also think I am experienced, being an active editor for over a year now.
I understand this is an important rule, and that it can be abused, this is why I will avoid using the role unless I absolutely need to, or if a user requests a new username.
In conclusion, these are the reasons why I think I am a qualified candidate for this role.
I remind you not to confuse me with “Croix”, my username is all uppercase.

Oppose Sorry, but you have 1.214 global contributions, you are new user and you haven't admin rights on a Wikimedia wiki. AlPaD (talk) 17:58, 24 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Neutral Global renamer is a minor role, akin to the VRT permissions agent role. One does not need to have sysop let alone bureaucrat rights for this role. This is a good-faith request, so I cannot oppose this, but that being said, I'm not seeing enough global activity to justify supporting. Dmehus (talk) 20:24, 24 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Neutral I don't care about whether you are an admin or not, but since there is no evidence of experience I cannot support. On enwiki you have 5 edits in project namespace, 3 deleted, 2 at Wikiprojects; I don't think that is sufficient to prove that you have experienced the administrative aspect of Wikimedia of which GRN is a part. You are welcomed to re-request any time when you think you're truly ready for it. NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh00:35, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Global rename is a very sensitive permission with effects over all Wikimedia project and without any trusted role already, I can't support this request. ‐‐1997kB (talk) 02:21, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Not done — closing as an unlikely to pass under any circumstances request. CROIX, thank you for volunteering and please do not let this discourage you. Your help is welcome but for now you should get more experience interacting with the community, both on your home English Wikipedia and cross-wiki. For the latter your may for example consider joining small wiki monitoring team. --Base (talk) 10:37, 27 April 2022 (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.

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.
I have moved to Mainland China for work. I require GIPBE to edit Wikidata and jawiki.I would appreciate it if the administrators can grant me GIPBE, Thanks very much --Nqcwxp (talk) 04:17, 28 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
