Global rollback for 511KeV
- Global user: 511KeV (edits (alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)
- Not ending before 18 November 2023 17:54 UTC
Hello, I'm actively volunteering with the SWMT to combat cross-wiki vandalism. While I currently utilize the undo button to address instances of vandalism across various projects, its effectiveness diminishes in cases of multiple edit vandalism. Hence, I am seeking access to the global rollback tool to enhance my capabilities in anti-vandalism efforts. I understand the importance of using this tool judiciously and commit to doing so. Drawing from my experience on En Wiki and Ks Wiki, I am confident in navigating its usage responsibly. I pledge to adhere strictly to the guidelines outlined in the Global rollback policy, recognizing that any misuse may lead to the revocation of these rights and, in severe cases, result in a block. Thankyou. signed, 511KeV (talk) 17:54, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
- Neutral I don't see enough cross-wiki anti-vandalism work to support. – DreamRimmer (talk) 18:15, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
- Weak support - contributions are on the low side, and activity is relatively infrequent for getting new global rights, but reverts look good and the candidate has clearly demonstrated the ability to revert across language barriers. – Ajraddatz (talk) 21:09, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
- I've seen the candidate around, but looking at their crossactivity, they only seem to have resumed their cross-wiki efforts this month. I'd suggest they continue patrolling for some more 2 – 3 months to gain some additional experience with the various wikis, after which I'd probably be willing to support. ~~~~

- Weak support I think we are being too strict with global rollback permissions oftentimes. If users have shown a good amount of xwiki contributions + good use of rollback and other advanced permissions at different local projects, I see no reason not to support. --Johannnes89 (talk) 07:17, 14 November 2023 (UTC)

- Support - you have a valid reason and your edit matrix, while on the lower side, is also reasonable. So a yes from me. While I understand 1234qwer1234qwer4's perspective, I don't think waiting in this case is necessary. Leaderboard (talk) 15:48, 14 November 2023 (UTC)

Global sysop for LR0725
- Global user: LR0725 (edits (alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)
- Not ending before 22 November 2023 05:54 UTC
Hello, I am here to request global sysop permission. I'm now working for global rollbacker, Korean Wikipedia sysop, and Korean Wikisource sysop. When dealing with many LTAs, I feel that I need to block that LTA accounts or IPs or protect pages on small wikis, which are vulnerable for vandalism especially.
Also, I am patrolling all the other Korean Wikimedia projects (wiktionary, wikiquote, wikibooks, and wikinews) regularly, and LTAs at Korean Wikipedia sometimes make vandalism on other projects, too. There is 1 sysop for each projects, but kowiktionary doesn't have any sysop currently. It is hard to create appropriate admin vote as there is no active user now, so I want to patrol small wikis and Korean Wikimedia projects by gaining global sysop permission. Thanks for your consideration!
You can see my works as sysop if you want: kowiki, kowikisource. --LR0725 ( Talk / Contribs ) 05:55, 8 November 2023 (UTC)

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)
- We would need to know more about what block is affecting you. If you wish not to disclose your IP, please use UTRS for accounts. -- Amanda (she/her) 13:51, 3 September 2023 (UTC)

- I’ve posted at UTRS as instructed, I can’t find it’s link to my appeal to post here though. Dustfreeworld (talk) 15:00, 3 September 2023 (UTC)
- @Dustfreeworld: I don't see any blocks that affect accounts. They only affect you logged out. -- Amanda (she/her) 15:48, 23 October 2023 (UTC)
- Yes that global block I mentioned above doesn’t affect me anymore on English Wikipedia now (when logged in). It did affect me previously. It seems that the block was modified on 4 Sep after my post above, please see: [2]. On a side note, I never have access to the Wikipedia Library even when logged in. Also, I can never edit the Chinese Wikipedia (no matter logged in or logged out); there seems to be more than one/two blocks over my IP range. Thanks again for the help :) Dustfreeworld (talk) 09:16, 2 November 2023 (UTC)
- FYI, these local blocks (English Wikipedia), anon. only, which affected my IP range seemed to have expired recently on 28 Oct. So now only the block from Chinese Wikipedia and the modified global block are acting on my IP range. I’m not sure I understand fully the differences between the different blocks. It looks complex to me. But I’m fine now as long as I can edit the English Wikipedia :) I’m not keen on editing the Chinese Wikipedia, though it would also be great if I can help translating some articles. And access to the Wikipedia Library is of course a plus. Dustfreeworld (talk) 16:51, 3 November 2023 (UTC)
