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.

Meta-Wiki requests

Requests for global (un)block

Symbol comment vote.svg 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

jawikivoyage unblock for こにしかめやも2

Global unblock for 47.243.198.62

Status:    On hold

XFF trusted hosts list IP, should not be blocked. Please unblock this IP sparately in the range. --AnYiLinTalk 06:14, 21 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Martin Urbanec: given you were working on another XFF whitelist project. -- Amanda (she/her) 17:53, 29 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@AmandaNP: If possible, please temporarily set the block to only apply to anonymous users. Thank you. A hard block doesn't make much sense and can actually affect normal usage, rendering the trusted list meaningless. AnYiLinTalk 04:13, 19 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@AnYiLin: Now X mark.svg Not done The range gave up on giving XFF out about a month ago, right around the time you requested this. -- Amanda (she/her) 05:23, 19 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@AmandaNP: The single IP that provides XFF information is 47.243.198.62, which is still available now. However, the entire /16 block has been blocked, resulting in this single IP unable to bypass the block. Please refer to the mentioned task below (https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T335176#8802126) for more details. Thank you. AnYiLinTalk 05:29, 19 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Point taken, but at the same time, this is still not actionable in my opinion. We have a process for applying for IPBE for this reason, we don't need to invite spambots and sockpuppets to start using this webhost to get around a block. We don't do this normally when people ask for their individual IP to be whitelist on any other webhost, and I don't know why we should start now. This is a software issue (of accepting the XFF or ability to whitelist IPs). If @MarcoAurelio: wishes to proceed with it, that is their choice, but it's not mine. Also, please be very careful in reverting status changes as those are only meant to be done by stewards. -- Amanda (she/her) 05:44, 19 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
This IP is a reverse proxy instead of a VPN, and it will correctly pass on the user's real IP. This ensures that those who use it are not spambots, and also ensures that CU can function properly. As for why this IP has been added to the trusted list, I believe it is precisely because it can pass on the correct XFF header, and thousands of people are using it. AnYiLinTalk 06:19, 19 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@AmandaNP: This is an error with the GlobalBlocking extension, and it's unclear when it will be resolved. In the meantime, I suggest temporarily change the hard block on this /16 block to only anonymous users until the extension is fixed. We can observe for a period of time to see if there are any spambots or sockpuppets, and then take further action if necessary. For Chinese users, applying for IPBE on meta-wiki is a relatively unfamiliar and cumbersome process. What's more, it's not the expected result when users are prompted to be blocked while editing on a server with a trust level similar to Wikimedia cache servers. AnYiLinTalk 06:36, 19 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I don't recall a function that would only enable the release of specific IPs within ranges, so I think something technically supported would be needed. --Sotiale (talk) 23:49, 29 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@Sotiale: Maybe try this method. Zhwiki has a admin robot, and its white list of blocked IP uses this method. Under this method, even if all IPs cannot be blocked in the form of IP range, I think that the remaining unblocked IPs will not cause any very bad consequences. If there is a problem, just ban that IP alone (this is exactly the goal of Steward_requests/Global). After all, these IPs belong to Alibaba Cloud, and they cost money to use. It is impossible for saboteurs to hold a lot of them. AnYiLinTalk 04:57, 30 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

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

Symbol comment vote.svg 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 ===

When the fifth, sixth and seventh letters of the username of this account are changed from katakana to hiragana, the username is えのきだたもつ, so the username is too similar to other Wikimedian and the username is also inappropriate. 郊外生活Kogaiseikatsu (talk,contribs) 10:46, 23 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Second one is definitely not Avoided. It might be Heymid, but I'm not that much familiar with them and the account is pretty old anyway. ~~~~
