Steward requests/Global permissions
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 ]- 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
=== 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. |
Requests for global sysop permissions

Before requesting, make sure that:
=== Global sysop 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|+2 week}} UTC'' The request will be approved if consensus to do so exists after a period of consideration of no less than two weeks (no exceptions are allowed 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. Please note: Since 2019 all global sysops are required to have two-factor authentication (2FA) enabled. |

Hello
Currently, I am living in Russia. As you know, Russia has blocked several websites since 2022. These restrictions cause me to often use VPN to access blocked websites. Unfortunately, users cannot either editing or creating a page on Wikipedia with VPN. Although Wikipedia has not been blocked yet, however several important websites that can support me during the editing or creation of an article are blocked such as BBC.com, Archive.org, Rfel.org and others. Apart from that, there are several news that stated Russia wanted to block Wikipedia, although it has not materialized yet. Hence, I am requesting Global IP block exempt so that I can edit or create an article on Wikipedia without having turning off the VPN. Faldi00 (talk) 07:22, 11 September 2024 (UTC) [reply ]

I edit in mainland China. China's GFW blocks the Wikimedia Foundation so I have to use a proxy to edit. I applied for the global IPBE because I need to upload media on Wikimedia Commons. I have obtained the IPBE for Chinese Wikipedia. Thank you. --德川裕 (talk) 06:52, 20 September 2024 (UTC) [reply ]

2FA Tester for D33j r093r5
[edit ]- Global user: D33j r093r5 (edits (alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA )
I'm an IT technician and network admin, so am particularly security conscious. I use 2FA / MFA as standard on all accounts (where possible) to mitigate as much risk of compromise for work or personally. As requested, I have read the "Help:Two-factor authentication on Meta" page (https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Two-factor_authentication), thanks, --D33j r093r5 (talk) 19:21, 26 September 2024 (UTC) [reply ]

Hi, I'm a sysop on itwiki. I create and maintain filters, and I mostly deal with LTAs. While monitoring the abuselog, I occasionally come across supposed false positives, so access to private global filters would help me reporting these. Additionally, I've noticed a few LTAs trigger both local and global filters. Being able to view said filters could help improve handling cross-wiki LTAs in the long run, either by refining local filters or by assisting global filters developers. Thanks, Titore (talk) 14:47, 26 September 2024 (UTC) [reply ]
