This page hosts requests for global permissions. To make a request, read the relevant policy (global rollback , global sysop , global rename , …) and make a request below. Explain why membership is needed for that group, and detail prior experience or qualifications.

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).

Requests for global rollback permissions

[edit]
Shortcut:
SRGR
Please be sure to follow the instructions below:
Your request might be rejected if you don't follow the instructions, and not doing so would reflect poorly on your suitability.
Please also review the Global rollback policy.
Instructions for making a request

Before requesting, make sure that: You have sufficient activity to meet the requirements to be allocated the global rollback flag

To make a request
Copy the template below to the bottom of this section and explain of why you need the access and why you're suitable.
=== Global rollback for {{subst:u|{{subst:REVISIONUSER}}}} ===
{{sr-request
 |status    = <!-- don't change this line -->
 |domain    = global <!-- don't change this line -->
 |user name = {{subst:REVISIONUSER}} <!-- don't change this line unless you're nominating another user -->
}}
::''Not ending before {{subst:#time:j F Y H:i|+5 days}} UTC''

The request will be approved if consensus to do so exists after a period of consideration of no less than 5 days (with rare exceptions , no matter how obvious the result may seem). This is not a vote, and all input is welcome. Stewards will determine whether consensus exists; when doing so it is likely that the weight given to the input of those involved in cross-wiki work will be most influential.

Global rename for Aqurs1

[edit]
Status:    In progress
Not ending before 5 February 2025 07:23 UTC

Hi all, I am here requesting for global rename permissions. I would like to help and deal with Special:GlobalRenameQueue, and especially rename request on zhwiki (aka my home wiki). I've read and clearly understand the policy, FAQ and other local policies. Although I'm not a sysop on any wikimedia projects, but I believe it's not a big deal to grn, I will try to do my best with this role. Appreciate if y'all could give me a try.

Global IP block exempt for שיפוץ-ניק

[edit]
Status:    Done

"I am IP block exempt on Hebrew Wikipedia due to edits from public IP addresses, but occasionally when editing other sites (mainly Wikidata), I encounter blocks, thanks, – שיפוץ-ניק (talk) 20:36, 20 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

ping EPIC (and neriah who granted me the authorization on Hebrew Wikipedia.) שיפוץ-ניק (talk) 12:36, 26 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Support Support. The user is reliable and occasionally encounters global range blocks. I granted them the permission on Hebrew Wikipedia after they reported the issue, but it seems the block is interfering with their edits on Wikidata. I should note that I reviewed several of their recent edits, all of which are constructive. Neriah - 💬 - 22:06, 26 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Granted for six months, valid use case. I've timed the global rights to expire slightly after the hewiki rights, if you need longer please re-request at that time. – Ajraddatz (talk) 17:07, 28 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Global IP block exempt for মোঃ সাকিবুল হাসান

[edit]
Status:    Done

I can't make any edits using the router I'm using. The IP has changed and the current IP is blocked globally. That's why I'm requesting a global IP block exempt. — The preceding unsigned comment was added by মোঃ সাকিবুল হাসান (talk) 26 January 2025 (UTC)

You don't seem to be using a globally blocked IP at the moment? (at least not what I can see from our technical data) Could you email us with more information? EPIC (talk) 10:51, 26 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@EPIC, I can edit using mobile internet. But the IP address of the router that I use regularly is blocked. It is expensive for me to always use mobile internet. মোঃ সাকিবুল হাসান (talk) 16:58, 26 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Done The user sent more information privately, and the request seems to be valid. ~ Yahya (talk • contribs) 14:35, 28 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Global abuse filter helper for TenWhile6

[edit]
Status:    In progress
Not ending before 31 January 2025 10:43 UTC

Dear Wikimedians, I would like to ask for global abuse filter helper rights. Besides being a global sysop and rollbacker, I’m an active dewiki & metawiki abuse filter maintainer [1][2]. Due to my experience with abuse filters I sometimes assist in creating and improving abuse filters on wikis where I’m not local admin, for example Wikidata. This would be much easier with abuse filter helper permissions and allow me to see the hitlist of private filters. GAFH would also give me the opportunity to analyse private filters on other wikis and import parts of them to dewiki or metawiki, which is very helpful in case of crosswiki vandalism. Recently I had this case again and because I didn't have GAFH, stewards/local admins had to send me the abusefilter content. This is doable in the beginning but when this process is needed every time, it’s annoying for both them and me.

Feel free to ask if you have any questions or concerns. Thanks, --TenWhile6 10:43, 24 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
