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).

Global sysop for Aqurs1

[edit]
Status:    In progress
Not ending before 12:35, 28 April 2025 (UTC)

Hello. I'm Aqurs1, a global rollbacker and a sysop in Chinese Wikivoyage. As a SWMT member, I'm active in anti-vandalism and cleaning spam, especially in small wikis with no or less admins. I'm here requesting global sysop right as it can help my work be more efficient when I patrol small wikis (just like what I did in fawikt and other small wikis), I would also like to offer help in Global_sysops/Speedy_delete_requests and GSR where I made over 1500+ edits. The reason I made this application is also because multiple colleagues encouraged me to do so.

I already read and I'm familiar with local policies related to GS. If I'm granted the right, I will take it slowly to learn the toolkits and will not hesitate to ask questions to other GS or stewards if I have any doubts or concerns. 2FA is enabled. Thanks for your consideration~ --aqurs 🍧 12:35, 14 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Reconfirming my !vote. Although the mentioned iswiki incident is concerning, I believe that both parties need to improve. While I respect the opinions of BRP and Ferien, Aqurs1's cross-wiki work and dedication lead me to trust that they will be cautious and will not repeat this when collaborating with cross-wiki communities in the future. Dealing with cross-wiki abusers is a tough job; however, it must be handled with proper care and respect for the communities involved. I believe they will take this incident as a learning opportunity. – DreamRimmer (talk) 14:28, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    • Strike "vote" per BRPever, replacing it with a regretful Oppose Oppose. The iswiki incident is all quite poor, I'm disappointed in seemingly a few global sysops' (and potential future GSes/GRs) simply adding flames to the fire here rather than stepping back and reviewing whether they could perhaps take a less aggressive approach to the situation. Again not defending the iswiki sysops involved here either (threatening to "block your ass" and blocking over a few edits from a trusted user is perhaps excessive at best!) but when you write on local talk pages on the way you did, you're just going to be viewed as having your own agenda you want to push on a wiki. You're there to help their community, not to boss them about and tell them how to do their work. Ironically, when you cited AGF towards the admin in question (here), you violated the principle that you also assume the assumption of good faith towards you, which is technically an assumption of bad faith on your end by assuming this was not the case. This is addressed on the very guideline you cited on enwiki, Although bad conduct may seem to be due to bad faith, it is usually best to address the conduct without mentioning motives, which might intensify resentments all around., as well as here on meta However, they may start making personal attacks towards you [...]. Now, you may get angry, right? As a result, your comment certainly did intensify resentments all around, as did other global sysops' comments on the page that I'm not impressed with at all either. --Ferien (talk) 09:46, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
      • Update to Strong oppose per the doubling down on assuming bad faith below, although I am perhaps more disappointed of the other global sysops who have consistently acted as though they have the right or authority to override smaller wikis on content matters. I would typically reflect on whether they are likely to improve based on the feedback, per what DreamRimmer said, but we have seen nothing other than deflection here from all users involved. Not once have any of the users in question accepted that their actions might have even been slightly out of line. Universal Code of Conduct/Coordinating Committee/Cases/Snævar is also particularly telling on this point, with criticism of their actions being described as victim blaming and de-adminship of the admin being proposed when their own tones worsened the situation for it to get to that point ("go ahead [and block me]", "yeah right" etc are still the type of things heard on a playground too, not on Wikimedia). I doubt this comment will even slightly affect the evasion of responsibility for those involved, but I just thought I'd make my position clear. --Ferien (talk) 10:35, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
        FYI, comments you cited have nothing to do with Aqurs1, so how are they relevant here? A09|(pogovor) 13:22, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
        Yeah, but there is pretty much an agreement from them there. And there is plenty of confrontational comments made by Aqurs1 themselves like, Thanks for telling us that you are lack of understanding on AGF and Universal Code of Conduct. BRP ever 13:54, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
        My opinion is that global sysops as more experienced cross-wiki patrollers will set the tone for how discussions play out, so Aqurs1's comments also appear to be matching the attitude of existing GSes such as yourself. It'd be unfair if I only noted Aqurs1's comments when the comments you and SHB2000 made as global sysops come across as just as confrontational if not more so. --Ferien (talk) 13:57, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose Oppose I'd say not now. Initially, I was going to support but the recent iswiki incident has been making me think otherwise. I expect GS to have a certain level of diplomacy skills; this situation was clearly inappropriately handled. If the user is not globally banned or wmf banned, the project has the autonomy over how they handle the content unless it is clearly inappropriate. A mass revert, followed by the argument with local admin who is telling you the edits are fine is by no means acceptable for this role. While I do find few comments by local admin unacceptable for a collaborative community; I think the other involved users also played a part for things to get that far. Thus, the oppose.-BRP ever 09:06, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Thanks for feedback. Initially, I do not have any argument against my block. Since the block reason was 'content removal', I was just clarifying what I did actually, and I would fully respect their judgment if they consider those edits are appropriate for the community and advise against reverting them. However, the lack of communication before the block, did made me confused. The 'argument' part would be in Snævar's talk page, and that's not related of my block, it's because I believe their attitude is problematic. While I think the situation could have been managed better, but both sides need to put effort to improve it. aqurs 🍧 09:36, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Notice or warning aren't always necessary before blocks; it usually depends on the community. From what I see you asked local admin for clarification on block reason, which they did. But I do not see you acknowledge any mistake or error from your part there. Normally, unlock requests (at least on my home wikis) starts with understanding of the issue, followed by corrective measures. BRP ever 09:56, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose Oppose Sorry, no. The concerns voiced above are clearly problematic, as is you telling a local administrator that what you said above only that show you are refusing to follow policy and assume good faith, in defense of another global rollbacker stating Please stop giving bot permissions to accounts of long term abusers. Uljas kai is a sockpuppet of Risto hot sir, so it should be blocked on sight AND NOT given flood permissions. You are a guest helping out on a wiki that has local administrators. If they don't feel the need to get rid of someone, that needs to be the end of it, and you have not demonstrated a sufficient understanding of the expected behavior of global rollbackers. The behavior seen in that incident isn't behavior I think is really compatible with that of a holder of global rights. EggRoll97 (talk) 03:14, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    'Refusing to follow policy and assume good faith' part is for threatening with the word 'block your ass', and the policy is linked to WP:ATTACK on Icelandic Wikipedia version, I really cannot AGF to them if they made harassment like that, as it should goes for both way. If they don't feel the need to get rid of someone, that's completely fine, but the serious thing is don't grant LTA bot or flooder flag, if they think it's not harmful, at least it affected our work. Although that's just a reminder of course, and we can do nothing if they still grant flags to LTA. If you believe that it's a major red flag, I'll respect your decision anyway. aqurs 🍧 03:55, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    You're still saying don't grant LTA bot or flooder flag. Granting of permission flags is at the discretion of the local administrators, and the demand made by A09 was delivered in a way that began the conversation confrontationally. You defended that "reminder", and I maintain that impacts my assessment of your judgement and communicative abilities as a global rollbacker. EggRoll97 (talk) 04:01, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    I'd hate to break it to you, but I'm sure being on Meta-Wiki, you'll probably have found on by now that not everyone is a native English speaker. I'm not saying the way Aqurs1 responded was perfect (I certainly would've used phrasing that's a bit more calmer, but I'm also an en-N speaker), but they are also not a native English speaker and expecting them to be spot-on with communication in English goes against the entire principle of the Wikimedia Community aiming to cater to a diverse range of linguistic abilities – all the more so when the phrasing Aqurs1 used was still within the bounds of what's considered civil. I will also say it's pretty disappointing on your end to expect everyone to have that ability. //shb (t • c) 10:15, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Aqurs1 did not need to chime into that debate at all. They had the option to simply ignore the talk page in its entirety and remain uninvolved, but decided to chime in regardless. That is a decision that doesn't require linguistic ability to be able to make. Your point is correct that the comment they made was civil. My point is that they do not need to get involved at all. It was fully an option for them to let the discussion between A09 and Snævar continue and come to a natural end, without their involvement. EggRoll97 (talk) 02:56, 24 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    If block your ass is truly such an offensive comment that you cannot even bare to assume good faith that the admin could just be having a bad day, how do you intend to deal with the more emotionally charged situations global sysops face? Global sysops have to collaborate with smaller wiki admins, not find themselves in conflict with them. If a single comment stops you from assuming good faith, that shows a poor ability to work through conflict because as much as you seem to like to point to AGF, you're simply not following it. The moment you assume bad faith because of a single bad comment, as you've now explicitly stated you have (I really cannot AGF to them), your assumption of good faith has gone out the window. How can you even point to AGF when you are actively refusing to follow it yourself? --Ferien (talk) 08:40, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I believe iswiki should treat all users equally, from those with zero edits to admins and bureaucrats. But when they threatened to block A09 with a statement like that, in my view, is not conducive to collaborative communities like Wikimedia. I always strive to act in good faith, and my replies to the iswiki admins were made in that spirit.
I am aware of my mistakes in the conversation, that I left confrontational comments to the local sysop, which is not ideal. My stance for the future is clear: I apologies on that, and I will not repeat this type of behavior moving forward.

Global sysop for Svartava

[edit]
Status:    In progress
Not ending before 14:04, 29 April 2025 (UTC)

Hi. I'm a global rollbacker and an administrator on English Wiktionary, Meta and MediaWiki. I received encouragement from several active cross-wiki patrollers and I am finally running for GS after some deliberation. I am active in patrolling cross-wiki and have also made numerous requests for global sysops at GSR, of which nearly all were accepted.

As indicated by my babel box, I have native and near-native proficiency in Hindi and English and have decent skill in Sanskrit as well; along with that I have quite interest in linguistics (as also seen in Wiktionary being my home wiki), due to which I have some basic knowledge of many other Indic languages (such as Punjabi, Gujarati, Bengali, Marathi, etc.) as well as some Romance languages (such as French, Spanish, etc.). My experience in linguistics also helps me when making sense out of and dealing with languages which are completely new as well.

As a global sysop, my areas of working would include GSR and GSRSD along with my usual cross-wiki patrolling work where having administrator tools on small wikis would be quite effective for me as well as reducing the load for other global sysops. I have read the relevant policies (both global and local) and I understand the high-impact nature of GS permissions, considering which I will always tread mindfully and take care with whatever I am doing.

Thanks for considering! – Svārtava (tɕ) 14:04, 15 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello everyone, I am an edit filter manager on Chinese Wikipedia, I've read the policies and guidelines about rename, and I'd like to help process rename requests on zhwiki and global rename requests written in Chinese. I noticed that the global community expects the requester of this right to have advanced permissions on their home wiki, I'm not sure whether the edit filter manager permission meets this requirement or not, but based on enwiki, I believe it does. So I have submitted my request here. If it does not meet the requirement, I'll withdraw it. Thank you! :) Yours sincerely, Iming 彼女の愛は、甘くて痛い。 04:58, 23 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

global-interface-editor for MusikAnimal

[edit]
Status:    In progress
Not ending before 01:27, 28 April 2025 (UTC)

Hello! I got a nifty reminder from Global reminder bot that my Global interface editor rights will soon expire. I'd like to request a longer appointment, or if permissible and should you have my trust, to retain these rights indefinitely. See xtools:globalcontribs/MusikAnimal/8 for some examples of my somewhat sporadic, but ongoing global interface editing. In addition to helping out fixing scripts, deprecations, etc. on an ad-hoc basis, I maintain several "global" gadgets that occasionally require me to manage their local gadget definitions. See previous requests [1][2][3] and my 2020–23 stewardship. In full transparency, I note that I also hold global-edit-interface rights with my staff account (solely for editing in a staff capacity). — MusikAnimal talk 01:27, 23 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
