Global rename for Hide on Rosé

Hi everyone. I'm Hide on Rosé, orginally known as Vanhdeeptryy and Tryvix1509. Currently I'm a eliminator at vi.wikipedia and a global rollbacker. Previously I served as a VRT member (info-vi and permissions). I would like to help at local request for username change at viwiki, and therefore I’m requesting for the global renamer right. Per Administration page, viwiki has 3 global renamers, but Alphama has resignated as a sysop, so he is less active on viwiki request page; Trần Nguyễn Minh Huy's right has been removed due to inactivity. NhacNy2412 is the only active user on viwiki, but not very often, because she is also busy writing new articles, editing and doing other maintenance tasks. Therefore, I would like to be granted this right in order to help, not only at viwiki but also all Wikimedia communities. My language knowledge: vi-N, en-3, ko-0. Should you have any questions, let me know. Thanks! Hide on Rosé t 13:04, 12 February 2024 (UTC)

CAPTCHA exemption for Tmv
- Global user: Tmv (edits (alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)
Hi all, I often use Twinke to rollback vandalism on several wikis, and in the process, I am sometimes prevented from smooth rollback by CAPTCHA annoyingly; for instance, on zhwiki, nowiki, itwiki and cawiki most recently, and you can find my edits using "undo" feature to enter the CAPTCHA on some of them. So I'd like to request CAPTCHA exemption (I think GR is not necessary for me right now). Thanks, --Tmv (talk) 11:09, 14 February 2024 (UTC)
- It seems like you are having this problem primarily on projects that explicitly asked to not confirm people early, this accessibility feature isn't really for bypassing these local controls. — xaosflux Talk 15:08, 14 February 2024 (UTC)
- @Xaosflux okay, so there's no way to avoid CAPTCHA except requesting confirmed flag on each wikis? --Tmv (talk) 11:13, 20 February 2024 (UTC)
Abuse filter helper for Maximillion Pegasus
- Global user: Maximillion Pegasus (edits (alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)
- Not ending before 23 February 2024 06:00 UTC
Hi there, I'd like to request abuse filter helper. As a quick introduction to who I am, I've been around a pretty long time. I was active back around 2008-2012 (I've been a global rollbacker since 2010, and was a global sysop from 2010-2012 until I voluntarily resigned due to decreased activity). After years of only the occasional edit, I've recently become regularly active again, and I've been experimenting with using the abuse filter as part of my cross-wiki patrolling. Sometimes it'd be useful to see the specifics of some filters/logs. I appreciate your consideration, --Maximillion Pegasus (talk) 06:00, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

- Neutral Since you resumed actively reverting vandalism on 4 January 2024, I'm uncertain about supporting the granting of such a sensitive right with only 43 days of activity. – DreamRimmer (talk) 03:55, 17 February 2024 (UTC)
Oppose.Their global edit/revert count looks okay, but otherwise I'm not seeing much of a demonstrated need for this highly-trusted role, given DreamRimmer's concern. – 64andtim (talk) 22:26, 17 February 2024 (UTC)
- Due to most of the community supporting as there is no risk of abuse, I am switching my vote to Neutral. – 64andtim (talk) 15:37, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
- Support - I remember you from wayyy back in the day, happy to support even with your recent return to activity. No concerns with misuse of these read-only permissions. – Ajraddatz (talk) 22:36, 17 February 2024 (UTC)
- Support No issues for me. Been a global rollbacker for a long time and like Ajraddatz, this is a read-only permission and I don't see any risk for misuse in this case. EPIC (talk) 23:09, 17 February 2024 (UTC)
- Support --Julius 12345 (talk) 09:12, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
- I disagree with EPIC and Ajraddatz's characterisation that they are not open to misuse - in my opinion, this is actually not far off from oversight in terms of the material that you see. That being said, Support since the reason is valid. Leaderboard (talk) 18:11, 19 February 2024 (UTC)
- Just to clarify, I agree that read-only permissions can be misused, I just don't think that is a concern with this candidate; i.e. he is trusted enough to have this access, and the worst case I could imagine here would be inactivity. – Ajraddatz (talk) 18:57, 19 February 2024 (UTC)

CAPTCHA exemption for The Squirrel Conspiracy
- Global user: The Squirrel Conspiracy (edits (alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)
I'm an admin on Commons and work heavily in closing DRs. CommonsDelinker has been down since the 15th and has periodically gone down before, so I've been using the justReplace script to perform global replacements under my own account, ahead of deleting duplicates and copyvios. Unfortunately, the script breaks (stops the entire replace, doesn't just bypass that one page/project) whenever it needs to replace a file on a project that requires a CAPTCHA, so I'd like to be able to bypass them. --The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 05:03, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
