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

If you are here because you have been blocked by a global block, and believe that the block is in error or you have not done anything wrong, there are a few methods through which you can appeal:

  • If the IP is not currently blocked on meta, you can post a request to this page following the instructions below to have the IP unblocked.
  • If the IP is currently blocked on meta, you can post an appeal on your talk page. For maximum effectiveness, link to the username of the steward who globally blocked the IP address using the code [[User:USERNAME|USERNAME]] so that they are pinged by it.
  • If you are editing from an account and have been caught by a global IP block that is unlikely to be removed (i.e. because it is an open proxy or because of long-term abuse), you can request an individual exemption from the block at the requests for global permissions page. Please see the section on global IP block exemptions on that page for specific instructions for making a request.
  • If none of those options work, you are free to email us at stewards@wikimedia.org.

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 .
Global blocks don't affect Meta-Wiki, so if your IP address or account is blocked, you can still appeal here. IP addresses or accounts that cause disruption on Meta should be reported at [[<tvar name=rfh>Meta:Requests for help from a sysop or bureaucrat</tvar>|Meta:Requests for help from a sysop or bureaucrat]] instead of here so that they can be blocked locally.</translate>
<translate> Please describe the kind of cross wiki abusive activity you see from the IP or account. Saying an IP or account 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.</translate>
<translate> Instructions for making a request</translate>

<translate> Before requesting, make sure that:

  1. You know the IP address(es) or accounts 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 or account, if any.

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

Copy the template below to the bottom of this section and explain why the address(es) or account(s) should be blocked/unblocked.</translate>
=== Global block/unblock for <translate><!--T:5--> [[Special:Contributions/Some IP address or account|Some IP address or account]]</translate> ===
{{Status}} <!-- Do not remove this template -->
* {{Luxotool|<translate><!--T:6--> IP address/username</translate>}}
<translate><!--T:7--> Description, evidence, diffs, etc.</translate> --~~~~

<translate>

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 <tvar name=whatismyip>https://www.whatismyip.com/</tvar>
You are not required to disclose your IP in public - you may make requests privately to any steward on <tvar name=IRC>IRC</tvar> or by email at: <tvar name=address>stewards@wikimedia.org</tvar></translate>

Done Reviewing the existing DNS information shows that the range is recorded as components which makes the existing /17 block redundant. You have successfully removed the global block #39787 on the IP address 62.75.128.0/17. — billinghurst sDrewth 13:10, 26 December 2014 (UTC) Reply

Global block/unblock for 108.194.238.251

Long-term abuse. Do the same expiry as WP: 06:11, 19 December 2015. --2602:306:CC2E:EFB0:44F5:CE1B:1046:B6EC 17:00, 22 December 2014 (UTC) Reply

There is no global block for this IP address. If it is blocked at a wikipedia, you will need to ask at that wiki for its removal. It is not something that a steward can override. — billinghurst sDrewth 13:11, 26 December 2014 (UTC) Reply


Global block/unblock for Claw of Slime

Status: In progress

After my user account has been blocked on en.wikipedia.org, I try to prove my .net template is reasonable, but this user adds comment like "You have been blocked on enwp because of "Not being here to build an encyclopedia". What you should do is to be unblocked on enwp, but not to do disruptive edits on other projects. --Claw of Slime" on de.wikipedia.org, fr.wikipedia.org, ja.wikipedia.org and ru.wikipedia.org, and trapped me blocked from de.wikipedia.org and ja.wikipedia.org. The following are the links:

For all my reputation, and all the good reputation of Wikipedia.org, I request this user block glabllly. Janagewen (talk) 04:35, 27 December 2014 (UTC) Reply

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

Latest comment: 9 years ago 12 comments11 people in discussion
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-stewards connect or email your request to the stewards VRT queue at stewards-oversight@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-appeals@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-stewards connect , 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 -->
*...
Reasons, etc. --~~~~

For many accounts: 

=== Global lock for spambots/vandals ===
{{status}} <!-- do not remove this template -->
{{MultiLock|username|username2|username3}}
{{MultiLock|username|username2|username3|hidename=1}} <!-- if you do not want the names to be visible on this page -->
*...
Reasons, etc, --~~~~

Global unblock for Ibidem

Hi! I have such problem. At ruwiki and other wiki (english, german and other) for several days I receive such message "WIKIMEDIA FOUNDATION Error Our servers are currently experiencing a technical problem. This is probably temporary and should be fixed soon. Please try again in a few minutes.

If you report this error to the Wikimedia System Administrators, please include the details below.

The problem is the same from 3 different computers and different IP. There is no problem with new created account "Ibidem 2".

(Not steward)There is nothing to do with Steward about server error. It's the task of Sysadmin. — Revi 10:02, 8 December 2014 (UTC) Reply
These are temporary and transitory issue. They will resolve, or someone will resolve them. — billinghurst sDrewth 12:43, 8 December 2014 (UTC) Reply

Global block for User:アルトクール

Status: Not done

This user ever reported me and wanted me blocked globally without reasonable reason at all, at https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Steward_requests/Global&oldid=10646917

And I've been blocked on ja.wikipedia.org, and my user page there be removed by this user too, without any reasonable reason.

Obvious, I've no written any article or modified anything on ja.wikipedia.org. So the block to my user account there is unreasonable, and discrimniation.

So for those reasons, for the good reputation of the entire Wikipedia.org, I request to block this user from Wikipedia.org globally. Janagewen (talk) 04:20, 27 December 2014 (UTC) Reply
