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 EstrellaSuecia
- Global user: EstrellaSuecia (edits (alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)
- Not ending before 1 July 2023 08:59 UTC
Whenever I see spam or suspected xwiki vandalism or abuse on my home wiki, I always go on CA or GUC to revert it, then report users to SRG and links to the global blacklist. Am not part of small wiki monitoring team or anything but I still think the tool would be useful for me so I'd like to try it. I've been a sysop at my home wiki for three years almost, and a patroller here at Meta for some time. EstrellaSuecia (talk) 08:59, 26 June 2023 (UTC)
- Weak oppose You’re trusted, but Global Rollback is for “users who are demonstrably active in cross-wiki counter-vandalism or anti-spam activities”. I took a look at your crossactivity and I am sorry to say that it’s not enough xwiki activity for me. Thank you for volunteering! --TenWhile6 (talk | SWMT) 09:15, 26 June 2023 (UTC)
- Weak oppose The group is intended for those active in small wikis, and also according to your words you are not that active in small wikis. I really appreciate you for the fact that when you see something suspicious you go in immediately to check, but unfortunately it is not enough. Good luck in the future! Neriah - 💬 - 09:43, 26 June 2023 (UTC)
- Weak oppose Per above. --V0lkanic (talk) 10:07, 26 June 2023 (UTC)
- Neutral I understand the usefulness of the tool and I see you have undos on some wikis, but per above I think it's better to have a regular commitment in cross-wikis monitoring like SW monitoring to have this global right. Thank you for volunteering. ShifaYT ✉Talk 12:06, 26 June 2023 (UTC)
- Oppose too few edits on SW. ―Eihel (talk) 15:09, 27 June 2023 (UTC)
- Neutral The level of cross-wiki experience certainly isn't bad, with edits in 73 different wikis, although a little more would usually be expected for global rollback. Thank you for volunteering! --Ferien (talk) 16:02, 27 June 2023 (UTC)
- Neutral per Ferien --Ameisenigel (talk) 03:06, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
- Neutral +1 as you are trusted user, but -1 due to the relatively low cross-wiki contributions. --LR0725 [ Talk Contribs ] 19:32, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
- Weak support would have stayed neutral per Ferien & LR0725, but weak support for encouragement :) Perhaps reapply in a few months if your xwiki activity increases a bit? --Johannnes89 (talk) 19:36, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
- Oppose per above. Concerns with limited experience reverting vandalism on small wikis. -FASTILY 08:56, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
- Weak support Per Johannnes89. AlPaD (talk) 09:00, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
- @EstrellaSuecia:, regarding this: "I still think the tool would be useful for me" - personally, I've found Twinkle to be enough for the odd cross-wiki vandalism I need to revert. You haven't quite explained why you need it (common reasons include being hit by a rate limit or Twinkle's functionality being insufficient for whatever reason). Can you elaborate on that? Leaderboard (talk) 19:52, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
- @Leaderboard I made the decision to try to get these rights when I tried to revert Piermark but on two different wikis it would not let me just undo, the abuse filters said I removed too much text and tagged it as vandalism. I assumed with rollback I would not run into that. Also Twinkle does not seem to work for me whenever I click diff from GUC, but that might be a me issue that some setting would fix. EstrellaSuecia (talk) 20:42, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
- OK indeed rollback should exempt you from abuse filter issues - that's enough for a support from me. Leaderboard (talk) 08:36, 30 June 2023 (UTC)

- Neutral EstrellaSuecia is a sysop on svwiki, a mid-sized wiki so trust isn't an issue for me here – x-wiki edit count is. Would have happily supported if you made this request sometime in spring or so (and will do so if you rerequest in 3 months time), though. --SHB2000 (talk | contribs) 01:55, 30 June 2023 (UTC)
No consensus for promoting. EstrellaSuecia, do not be discouraged and feel free to re-apply once the concerns raised above are resolved. Thank you for volunteering. --Mykola 12:12, 1 July 2023 (UTC)

Global rename for Blua lago
- Wiki: meta.wikimedia.org (list 'crats • bot policy • summary • 'crats rights)
- User: Blua lago (talk • edits • logs • UserRights • activity • CentralAuth • email • verify 2FA)
- Not ending before 9 July 2023 09:19 UTC
As a long-time editor and trusted user, I’d like to volunteer for the global rename permission; I sense that I could be of help in handling global rename requests, especially those on my local wiki’s rename page. As there is currently only one Hungarian-speaking global renamer, I believe the Hungarian community would greatly benefit from another helping hand. Initially, it was proposed by FoBe that I should take on the duties of GRN -- this was followed by a request for comment by him on our local village pump on Huwiki, where the community overwhelmingly supported the idea of me requesting the permission. Thank you for your consideration, and should you have any concerns or any relevant feedback, please feel free to let me know. --Blua lago (talk) 09:19, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
- Support Trusted, sysop on huwiki and there's a need for another Hungarian-speaking global renamer. Thank you for volunteering! --Ferien (talk) 09:33, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
- Support I have been working alongside Blua lago for quite a while now. During this time, I have found that he approaches community issues in a highly constructive manner, takes his rôle as an administrator seriously, and approaches sensitive issues with the appropriate level of circumspection. He possesses good communication skills both in English and in Hungarian. I think that he would make a fine addition to the global renamer team. – FoBe (talk) 09:59, 25 June 2023 (UTC)

Global rename for TheAafi
- Wiki: meta.wikimedia.org (list 'crats • bot policy • summary • 'crats rights)
- User: TheAafi (talk • edits • logs • UserRights • activity • CentralAuth • email • verify 2FA)
- Not ending before 9 July 2023 13:44 UTC
Hello, I am an eliminator on ur-wiki and a global permissions VRT agent. I am a translation administrator on several wikis including here. On ur-wiki, I can delete/undelete, block/unblock users etc. apart from having another advanced permissions such as editing main page, editing cascade-protected pages. The only global renamer from ur-wiki has not edited since more than four months and has performed last rename on 6 November 2022. I have been through the policy pages and assure that, if I am granted this flag, I won't do any harm. Best regards, ─ The Aafī (talk) 13:44, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
- I have had made a request here several months ago, and withdrawn that due few of my own mistakes. This has been a good lesson, and I am still open to learning more. Let me know if you have any questions. ─ The Aafī (talk) 13:47, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
- Question: What has changed since your first request, and what do you think you learned from there? —MdsShakil (talk) 14:26, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
- Support The last request failed for some pretty poor reasons, the main one being that TheAafi isn't an admin, but has access to pretty much all admin tools apart from ones that would be used pretty infrequently anyway. Now there's even more of a need for an urwiki renamer, hopefully the community recognise that global renamer shouldn't be a box-ticking exercise, but rather a review of the candidate's need and related experience, which TheAafi clearly has. --Ferien (talk) 14:33, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
- I've also talked more about urwiki's eliminator rights in two previous requests where eliminators were applying for the role: TheAafi's first request and Ulubatli Hasan's request. Essentially, all the admin tasks related to renaming (e.g. blocking and unblocking) are already included in eliminator. --Ferien (talk) 14:39, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
- @MdsShakil, apart from what @Ferien has stated above, I have of course learned about the blatant error that I did here. I have also learned that file renaming is different from renaming users and have had this expressed on a number of GR requests here. What has changed since then also includes my work on the Urdu Wikipedia, I am extensively involved in keeping ur-wiki's main-page updated with the News section, a place where unlikely any admins have helped since 11 September 2022. I have alone helped this section to get better and introduced the concept of nominations in this. Having said this, I believe, I could be someone who can fill a lot of gap! ─ The Aafī (talk) 15:21, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
