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 מקף
- Global user: מקף (edits (alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)
- Not ending before 29 October 2023 02:14 UTC
- Hi,I fight and revert cross-wiki vandalism, both as part of SWMT and randomly (= xwiki vandals I encounter when they pop-in the local projects I'm active in, as well as Wikiproject:Antispam, and somtimes even requests submitted on SR/G by anothers and still need help to be reverted).
Currently I can rollback only in some of the local projects I'm active in (HeWiki, Commons), and the permission will allow me to operate easily (and with similar efficient speed) in others as well.I know the policy and have read it carefully. If the permission is granted, I will make sure to use it carefully in clear cases of vandalism. In any other case I will continue to use the undo button or TwinkleGlobal, as usual.Thank you for your consideration, · מקף Hyphen ෴ · 02:14, 24 October 2023 (UTC)

- Question: I see that among many wikis, including here you were accused of "cross-wiki image spam" by @Wutsje:. Can you explain what happened there?--reNVoy (user talk) 21:18, 25 October 2023 (UTC)
- @Hi, thanks for the question. I will try to answer, at least from my perspective - it was a silly mistake that resulted from a lack of thought. I wanted to add a photo that received a commendation grade on a local community contest (And was taken by a fairly well-known Hebrew Wikipedian, along with many other pictures that were not related to the same subject), and I didn't think it might have the dimension of a slight apprehension for commercial advertising. To be clear - I have no interest in the subject of the photo and I don't even know what event is documented in it (only where). This photo seemed to me a nice and very high quality one, enough to put it into many article & langs. As soon as I saw that those edits were restored, I stopped, and when I realized the reason, I thanked one of the restorers (I myself hold fairly strict positions regarding publishing as well as conflict of interest/paid editing.).

Global IP block exempt for Huggums537
- Global user: Huggums537 (edits (alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)
Hello. I was finally granted the exemption on my local enWiki, and I had also previously requested here, but the request here went dormant due to the long backlog at my local Wiki. My request here was dependent on getting approval on my local Wiki. I'm resubmitting my request here on the same premise as the previous request. Thanks. Huggums537 (talk) 12:15, 14 August 2023 (UTC)
I think it might also be a good idea to ping @Base and Vermont: since they participated in the previous request. Thanks. Huggums537 (talk) 20:12, 14 August 2023 (UTC)
I guess I should add that there have been no changes since the previous request. I still travel for work on public wifi with the same concerns for security and privacy mentioned in the previous request. Thanks. Huggums537 (talk) 06:49, 16 August 2023 (UTC)
I noticed this hasn't been answered in a very long while. Am I not allowed to make a new request based on a previous request by simply linking to the previous request if nothing has changed? Try pinging @Base and Vermont: again in case the first ping did not work. Huggums537 (talk) 17:00, 19 October 2023 (UTC)

Is there an update on this? UTRS has seen no changes yet AmandaNP apparently tried to change blocks of the relevant IP range. https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:GlobalBlockList?ip=154.49.0.0%2F16
For context: The IP range of a /16 subnet was moved to a German ISP blocking every customer that receives an IP from this subnet.

Global IP block exempt for Dustfreeworld
- Global user: Dustfreeworld (edits (alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)
I cannot edit any page anymore even though I’ve logged in. I’m the main contributor of the page Coco Lee but can’t edit it now. Please help, thanks! --Dustfreeworld (talk) 22:58, 2 September 2023 (UTC)
- Hi there just a bit more information. I don’t have broadband access at home and I mostly edit on mobile (4G). I don’t use proxies. There might be once or twice that I forgot to log in and edited as IPs, but all other edits were made as a logged-in user.
- And now that I can’t edit anymore (except here at meta), should I try using public Wi-Fi? Would that affect my request here? That’s very inconvenient anyway, because I’m not sure which public wifi would work, and that means I can’t edit at home…
- Thanks again. Dustfreeworld (talk) 11:29, 3 September 2023 (UTC)

Hello, I have recently had to use VPN and Proxy to contribute because the internet connection where I live is inherently poor and often intermittent. Because of using VPN, many times when I access projects I cannot edit them (Except for Vietnamese Wikipedia). I wish I was granted this permission so that I can contribute to many global projects of the organization. Thank you! --Meiko 10:04, 22 October 2023 (UTC)
