Steward requests/Global permissions

From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki
This is an archived version of this page, as edited by Dolotta (talk | contribs) at 17:04, 23 May 2019 (→Global rollback for Cohaf: support). It may differ significantly from the current version .
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

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.
Please note that Global rollbackers discussions are not votes. Comments must present specific points in favor of or against a user's approval.
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 rollback for Cohaf

Status: In progress
Not ending before 26 May 2019 06:42 UTC

Hey all, I can't say I am very experienced in handling crosswiki vandalism but I do have some experience. I know my index isn't that impressive and my cross-wiki matrix isn't that great as some global rollbackers / sysops (when they applied for the right). However, I believe I can tell the difference between good faith edits and vandalism in languages I am not familiar with. I also believe I have the experience of the rollback tool based on my experience in multiple project with the tool. Regarding supressing redirects, I also have some experience with the right in some projects. I hope to be given the tool to be able to clean up after crosswiki abusers more efficiently (although the undo button works), just a little faster. I intend to be of help to SWMT when needed. Thanks for consideration and your time. Regards, --Cohaf (talk) 06:42, 21 May 2019 (UTC) [reply ]

Requests for global IP block exemption

Please be sure to follow the instructions below:
Your request might be rejected if you don't follow the instructions. Please review Global IP block exemption. You may request Global IP block exemption via stewards(_AT_)wikimedia.org if you can not edit this page.
Please note: Global IP block exemption does NOT make one immune to locally-created blocks of any sort, only global blocks.
If you want to edit the Chinese Wikipedia, usually global IP block exemptions will not help you. Please see this instruction to request a local IP block exemption.
Instructions for making a request

Before requesting global IP block exemption, make sure that:

  1. You have a global account ;
  2. You are logged in on this wiki, and the account is part of your global account;

The request will be approved if there is demonstrated need for the permission, such as bypassing a global block from someone who is not the intended target.

Global IP block exempt for Hoodrop

Status: In progress

I am living in PRC and I need edit Wikipedia with ExpressVPN. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Hoodrop (talk) 10:44, 15 May 2019 (UTC) [reply ]

@Hoodrop: Which language projects do you want to edit? Ruslik (talk) 18:28, 16 May 2019 (UTC) [reply ]

All language, could I? Mainly English and Chinese. Thank you.

I think that you should request local IP block exemptions. Ruslik (talk) 09:43, 18 May 2019 (UTC) [reply ]

But it only could exemption for Chinese.

@Hoodrop: You can also request local ipbe in English Wikipedia -- Catherine Laurence
@Catherine Laurence: Fwiw, I’d be fairly skeptical granting local IPBE on en.wiki for an extended period of time to an account with three total edits, all to meta. At most I’d grant for s month and then tell them to contact me again if they still needed it. TonyBallioni (talk) 16:02, 21 May 2019 (UTC) [reply ]

Okay, thank you.

2FA for melvynadam

Status: Done

I'm in the same situation as Liamwli below: I have 2FA enabled on every other website that supports it, and 1Password just gave me a large banner yelling at me to enable here. I've read all the relevant documentation. Thanks, --melvynadam (talk) 09:40, 22 May 2019 (UTC) [reply ]

@Chamaelion: Have you read 2FA. Ruslik (talk) 20:53, 21 May 2019 (UTC) [reply ]

@Ruslik0: Yes - I realise it's in beta, appreciate the risks, have a code generator ready, and will keep my scratch codes handy :) --Chamaelion (talk) 22:41, 21 May 2019 (UTC) [reply ]
