This page hosts requests for global (un)blocks, (un)locks and hidings.


If you are here because you have been affected by a global block, please see Global blocks/FAQ for more information about global block and routes to appeal.

Note: (un)blocks apply to IP addresses; and (un)locks apply to global accounts.

Requests for global (un)block

Please be sure to follow the instructions below:
Your request might be rejected if you don't follow the instructions.
Please also review Global blocking . Only IP addresses can be globally blocked at this moment. Please see #Requests for global (un)lock and (un)hiding if your request involves an account.
Global blocks don't affect Meta-Wiki, so if your IP address is blocked, you can still appeal here. IP addresses that cause disruption on Meta should be reported at Meta:Requests for help from a sysop or bureaucrat instead of here so that they can be blocked locally.
Please describe the kind of cross wiki abusive activity you see from the IP. Saying an IP is a long term abuser is not helpful, but saying "IP vandalizes at ban.wikipedia, no.wikipedia and vi.wikipedia" is. This is especially important for range blocks. If you do not provide enough details, your request might be declined.
Instructions for making a request

Before requesting, make sure that:

  1. You know the IP address(es) you wish to have globally blocked or unblocked.
  2. For blocks, the global blocking criteria are met.
  3. For unblocks, your request addresses the original reason for blocking the IP, if any.

To make a request for the address(es) to be blocked or unblocked

Copy the template below to the bottom of this section and explain why the address(es) should be blocked/unblocked.
=== Global block/unblock for [[Special:Contributions/Some IP address|Some IP address]] ===
{{Status}} <!-- Do not remove this template -->
* {{Luxotool|IP address}}
Description, evidence, diffs, etc. --~~~~
When requesting that your IP be unblocked, note that stewards need to know your IP address to even consider a request.
To find your IP, please visit https://www.whatismyip.com/
You are not required to disclose your IP in public - you may make requests privately to any steward on IRC or by email at: stewards@wikimedia.org

Global block/unblock for 109.240.81.229

Status:    In progress

I yet placed a request to block this anonymous IP-number, below, apparently at "Global locks", on 22 September 2023. Lemonaka (talk) answered on 31 October 2023: "Global lock cannot be enacted to IP, please report to the upper section as Global block". So I now repeat my request here:

Sockpuppet of Nenoniel / Pakkoruotsi

A finnish user has multiple accounts blocked mainly on finnish, swedish and Esperanto branches of Wikipedia. In the Esperanto branch, I as a bureaucrat there had the task of stopping him and protecting multiple articles and personal sites from verbal assaults from him. No problem, there I have all rights to do so. In september, the user was starting to verbally assault my german discussion page, by placing the random finnish text "Neekerin jättkyrpä erektoituu" (after the title "Pippi Langstrumpf"), which means "The Negro's giant cock gets an erection" in English. This is just a stupid provocation, but probably is just the beginning of more provocations, as showed the experience in the finnish, swedish and Esperanto branches of Wikipedia. Meanwhile, the user continues to misuse my german talk page, for notorious Esperanto-themed notes, as he is re-blocked from the Esperanto branch soon after he finds a new IP-number and violates with it. Also my english talk page is mainly abused by him, as my Wiktionary talk page, but there are still many personal wiki talk pages to conquer. As he is pathologically emotionally instabile, and himself stated so, you can never know what comes next. I'd like to place a request to block this anonymous IP-number, best globally, and maybe to get advice where I can place a request to protect my discussion page from edits by anonymous IP-users (because there are still many IP-numbers left for him to find). --ThomasPusch (talk) 12:00, 2 November 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Global unblock for 23.230.0.0/16

Status:    In progress

There's a suballocation within this range that is not used for webhosting/proxy purposes (AS212109). After discussing with the blocking Steward, they agreed to undo the block on the /16 and replace it with smaller blocks that cover the parts of this range that are used for webhosting/proxy purposes, and the blocking Steward attempted to unblock this wide range. However, despite this, the global block still appears to be in effect (see: [7] and [8], which presently display the red banner referring to the global block).

I'm wondering if someone else could try to lift the block. I feel like this is a software bug, but oftentimes these sorts of bugs are resolved when someone just tries to do the same action a second time. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 19:34, 18 November 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Requests for global (un)lock and (un)hiding

Note that global blocking currently only applies to IPs, due to a technical limitation. If you wish to request a named account for global [un]locking, please request a global [un]lock here instead. Be sure to follow the instructions below:
  • Your request might be rejected if it doesn't include the necessary information.
  • Warning! This page is publicly viewable. If the account name is grossly insulting or contains personal information please contact a steward privately in #wikimedia-stewardsconnect or email your request to the stewards VRT queue at stewards@wikimedia.org (direct wiki interface) but do not post it here. Thanks.
  • Warning! This is not the place to ask for locks based on your opinion that someone is disruptive. Global locks are used exclusively against vandalism and spam, not because of content disputes, not because you think that someone deserves to be globally blocked. In such cases, you should ask for local blocks at appropriate places.
  • If you are globally locked, you should appeal your lock to stewards(_AT_)wikimedia.org.

Please describe abusive activity of an account before reporting them here. Since stewards are often not active at projects the reported accounts are, things that seem obvious to you may not be equally obvious to the reviewing steward.

Instructions for making a request

Before requesting that a global account be (un)locked, please be sure that:

  1. You have evidence of cross-wiki disruption from the account(s).
  2. You can show that it is not feasible to use local-only blocks or other measures like page protection to combat the disruption.
  3. You have considered making the request in #wikimedia-stewardsconnect, especially for account names which will be hidden, or for urgent requests.
To make a request for an account to be locked or unlocked
Copy one of the codes below to the bottom of this section and explain why the account(s) should be locked/unlocked.
=== Global lock/unlock for Foo ===
{{status}} <!-- do not remove this template -->
* {{LockHide|username}}
* {{LockHide|username|hidename=1}} <!-- if you do not want the name to be visible on this page -->

Sockpuppet of Nenoniel / Pakkoruotsi

A finnish user has multiple accounts blocked mainly on finnish, swedish and Esperanto branches of Wikipedia. In the Esperanto branch, I as a bureaucrat there had the task of stopping him and protecting multiple articles and personal sites from verbal assaults from him. No problem, there I have all rights to do so. Now, the user is starting to verbally assault my german discussion page, by placing the random finnish text "Neekerin jättkyrpä erektoituu", which means "The Negro's giant cock gets an erection" in English and "Der Riesenschwanz des Negers bekommt eine Erektion" in German. This is just a stupid provocation, but probably is just the beginning of more provocations, as showed the experience in the finnish, swedish and Esperanto branches of Wikipedia. I'd like to get advice, where I can place a request to block this anonymous IP-number, best globally, and where I can place a request to protect my discussion page from edits by anonymous IP-users.
