I would like to become a global rollbacker since I have been one for a long time on the English Wikipedia. I have made all of my reverts with good reason and have had none of them be refuted. I am also a member of many other things on the English Wikipedia. I am expanding my help to other wikis with my revert skills and would like this right so I can help with my skill on other MetaWikis. I will not abuse this permission and will always use it to be constructive. [[User:Joe Gazz84|Joe Gazz84]] 23:47, 12 September 2010 (UTC)
:So far, it appears you have no edits outside of mediawiki, meta, commons, and enwiki, which shows little in the way of cross-wiki antivandalism experience. I would suggest taking part in [[SWMT]] prior to requesting global rollback. [[User:Kylu|Kylu]] 23:55, 12 September 2010 (UTC)

*:If the section stays up here, it'll get commented on, regardless of whatever template we put up. I don't honestly think a week is going to make much of a difference either. If you want global rollback, you'll want to put in several months of global vandalism fighting, really, and if you just want rollback on the English projects, you'd do better to just request it there. You may want to consider what you really want to do, first, I think. [[User:Kylu|Kylu]] 00:42, 13 September 2010 (UTC)

=== Opt out for Amharic Wikipedia ===
{{status|not done}}
I am bureaucrat on Amharic wikipedia. Please remove Amharic wikipedia from "global sysops enabled". There was no need for us to "opt in" to begin with. Our local admins, who all understand Amharic, have everything under control. One of the requirements for sysop actions on that wiki is familiarity with, fluency and literacy in the Amharic alphabet and language. Otherwise, we may have "global sysops" barging in gung-ho and doing things they do not really understand, as has already happened today. Thank you kindly, [[User:Codex Sinaiticus|Codex Sinaiticus]] 06:34, 16 August 2010 (UTC)
*Please provide a link to the relevant discussion and !vote concerning this matter. [[User:Seb az86556|Seb az86556]] 10:50, 16 August 2010 (UTC)
*:There hasn't been any discussion or vote. Is getting off of this thing going to be a major hassle, or can it not be done simply and without pain? This is the very reason I opposed global sysop from the beginning, it's exactly what I envisaged would happen, it's exactly what I was repeatedly assured would never happen, and it's exactly what is happening now. Amharic-illiterate sysops looking to throw their weight around some "neglected" wiki, blundering in and enforcing their own notions of what Amharic wikipedia "should be" when they obviously cannot even read the first letter of the script, is definitely something we have no dire need for. Amharic speakers have been more than capable of building the encyclopedia without this kind of "assistance". They will not use something if it is being micromanaged by outsiders who are completely ignorant of Ethiopian languages, also they are quite technologically capable of creating a similar wiki elsewhere, and leaving this one to wither on the vine. [[User:Codex Sinaiticus|Codex Sinaiticus]] 13:54, 16 August 2010 (UTC)
*::There needs to be some local consensus attained, see [[GS#Scope]]. You may want to consider leaving a note on the Meta talkpages of the local offending Global Sysop(s), so they're aware of what they did incorrectly, also. [[User:Kylu|Kylu]] 14:08, 16 August 2010 (UTC)
*:::Alright then. This has all just happened recently, so I'll let you know when I get a chance to bring it up locally, and report some consensus from there. Thanks, [[User:Codex Sinaiticus|Codex Sinaiticus]] 14:50, 16 August 2010 (UTC)
*::::Can you please link to the discussion page there? -- [[User:Avraham|Avi]] 17:07, 23 August 2010 (UTC)
*:::::Looks like [[am:Wikipedia ውይይት:ምንጭጌ#ከ'Global Sysop' እንወጣ ስምምነታችሁን ስጡ እባካችሁ!]] [[User:Kylu|Kylu]] 20:16, 23 August 2010 (UTC)
*::::::Any updates? I'm sorry, but I cannot read Amharic. I see that there seems to be at least two responses… -- [[User:Avraham|Avi]] 19:20, 29 August 2010 (UTC)
*:::::::Indeed, two responses. No matter what those two say, it's not enough for an opt-out. [[User:Seb az86556|Seb az86556]] 10:46, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
**{{Not done}} Unfortunately, two responses does not indicate a consensus to opt-out as of now. Should Amharic wiki have a future discussion which exhibits consensus to opt out, please note that here. Thank you. -- [[User:Avraham|Avi]] 20:04, 12 September 2010 (UTC)

I'm active in the SWMT and it would be quit useful to have the global sysop flag, because a significant amount of the vandalism I come over are useless new pages. Further it would be fine to be able to ban users myself, so I do not have to call for stewards that often.


=== Global IP block exempt for [[User:KimjuenLau|KimjuenLau]] ===
Of course I already read the global sysop page and I have a link to meta on all my user pages, so users can contact me if necessary. Furthermore, I wont do anything if I'm not a 100% sure whether it's vandalism or not.
I know how to use the sysop tools from the administration of private wikis. - [[User:Hoo man|Hoo man]] 13:25, 24 August 2010 (UTC)

*Do you have any significant experience with the sysop tool on wmf wikis? Have you been sysop somewhere already? -[[User:Barras|Barras]] 13:29, 24 August 2010 (UTC)
*:Only on strategywiki, but I know the policys quite well and I think that I haven't done (if any) much wrong marking pages for deletion using dellieplagiat or requesting urgent blocks from stewards - [[User:Hoo man|Hoo man]] 13:36, 24 August 2010 (UTC)
*Comment: You're a very active SWMT member, and I've seen only good work from you in that area. However, you don't seem to have much experience with the sysop tools in Wikimedia projects? Unless I'm missing something, you only have sysop tools in strategywiki, where you've made a total of 1 block and 0 deletions.[http://strategy.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&user=Hoo+man] It would be a good idea to have some prior experience with the tools before applying for global rights. [[User:Jafeluv|Jafeluv]] 13:35, 24 August 2010 (UTC)
*:Are you talking about technical experience or community related things? - [[User:Hoo man|Hoo man]] 13:44, 24 August 2010 (UTC)
*::(Sorry for the late response, somehow I missed your follow-up question.) I was thinking more about technical experience, since GS aren't really part of the local community anyway, but both aspects have some importance. [[User:Jafeluv|Jafeluv]] 06:46, 26 August 2010 (UTC)
*:::That technical experience should be given. The only functions I'm really going to use frequently are block and delete. And I've already used block and delete on strategywiki and the private wikis. Further I'm usually able to understand technical things quite fast - [[User:Hoo man|Hoo man]] 11:49, 26 August 2010 (UTC)
*{{comment}} I think you should begin as sysop on a local wiki, because it's important to know how the technical actions are considered by other users. If you was already local sysop I would have fully supported you, because you make very good cross wiki work. This is just a comment, I don't oppose you become global sysop even without the local experience. --[[User:Hercule|Hercule]] 13:16, 26 August 2010 (UTC)
*:Thats definitely right, but I don't see a chance for me to get a local sysop on a content project, soon. The only WMF wiki, where a local sysop would be useful for me would be enwiki and I have far to less edits for that. - [[User:Hoo man|Hoo man]] 16:20, 26 August 2010 (UTC)

*'''Comment''' I guess this is as good a time as any to have this come up. Does the granting of global sysop first require that the candidate is an admin on an active project somewhere, or can a trusted, knowledgeable and active crosswiki candidate be considered qualified as well? Obviously global sysop must only be granted to people who have earned trust and shown they have the knowledge needed to use such a tool. I don't really know what to think in this case. I'd like to think that Hoo man has the clue to be a good admin, and I know the xwiki experience is there, but should someone's first experience of active adminhood be as a global sysop? IDK? '''''<font color="darkgreen">[[User:Fr33kman|fr33k]]</font><font color="blue">[[User:Fr33kman|man]]</font> <sup><font color="darkgreen" size="2">[[User talk:Fr33kman|t]]</font> - <font color="blue">[[Special:Contributions/Fr33kman|c]]</font></sup>''''' 03:04, 2 September 2010 (UTC)
*:I think making prior adminship somewhere else a requirement could easily give the wrong impression as to what the "job" is about. Global sysop is not the same as administrator. Global sysop is a much more limited a role. An administrator has to deal with content-issues, whereas a global sysop is explicitly not allowed to get involved. Under no circumstances would I want to give rise to the idea that one would have to get experience in all the duties of an administrator first, since as global sysop the person will get into trouble should that same experience be applied. [[User:Seb az86556|Seb az86556]] 03:41, 2 September 2010 (UTC)
*::I agree. The only experience should be the evidence of what a person already did (did they tag articles correctly? Did they rollback just blatant vandalism? etc.) since that's the kind of actions they'll be performing without a second opinion, sometimes. So, I think we should evaluate Hoo man based on their past performance, rather than their future potential. -- [[User:Mentifisto|<font color="#800080" face="courier new">Menti</font>]][[User talk:Mentifisto|<font color="#000000" face="courier new">fisto</font>]] 15:59, 4 September 2010 (UTC)
After this little discussion about the role of global sysops and the requirements, I think we should get back to my candidature. In my opinion Seb az86556 and Mentifisto are right and I think I haven't done much wrong (although I'm far not perfect). Furthermore I think I'm able to use the tools (as I already did on strategywiki and pirvate wikis), especially cause they are quite easy to use - [[User:Hoo man|Hoo man]] 21:52, 8 September 2010 (UTC)
*{{yes}}, definitely qualified. —[[User:DerHexer|DerHexer]]&nbsp;<small>[[User talk:DerHexer|(Talk)]]</small> 21:53, 8 September 2010 (UTC)
*'''Support''' '''''<font color="darkgreen">[[User:Fr33kman|fr33k]]</font><font color="blue">[[User:Fr33kman|man]]</font> <sup><font color="darkgreen" size="2">[[User talk:Fr33kman|t]]</font> - <font color="blue">[[Special:Contributions/Fr33kman|c]]</font></sup>''''' 00:46, 9 September 2010 (UTC)
* '''Support''' too. Hoo man does a really good work. -- [[User:Quentinv57|Quentinv57]] 21:15, 10 September 2010 (UTC)
*{{yes}} Yes, please. –[[User:BRUTE|BruTe]] <sup>[[User talk:BRUTE|talk]]</sup> 06:44, 13 September 2010 (UTC)
*'''Neutral''' per my comment above. I would still be more comfortable with some background with local tools first, but that probably shouldn't be an absolute requirement since the roles are actually very different despite having the same set of tools. As I said, from what I've seen Hoo man is a reasonable cross-wiki editor, although I do disagree with some of this taggings (for example, I don't see how [[:so:Dollar]] was a nonsense page). If this request is successful I recommend starting slow and being conservative with using the GS tools as opposed to leaving things to local admins. Good luck.

The request will be approved if consensus to do so exists after a short period of consideration (typically 5 days). 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.

I would like to request how I can check to see if an IP is gloabally blocked. Thanks, [[User:Fridae&#39;sDoom|Fridae&#39;sDoom]] 10:27, 11 September 2010 (UTC)
*::::Actually is a global IP block a cross-wiki block? If it is, can I have the link to account creation to first see if that is the case with my IPs. [[User:Fridae&#39;sDoom|Fridae&#39;sDoom]] 10:43, 11 September 2010 (UTC)
*:::::There's no way, to my knowledge, to perform a "cross-wiki block", since that would imply blocking a user/IP on another project from the project one is currently on. There are two types of blocks: Global IP blocks and local blocks (which may be user or IP). The GIPBE flag only grants exemption to global IP blocks, it has nothing to do with local blocks at all. As you're not currently globally IP blocked, this flag does nothing for you. [[User:Kylu|Kylu]] 02:15, 12 September 2010 (UTC)
*::::::Ah, I see a global block is a block that applies for all WMF wikis. The only way to find out if my IP was globally blocked would be to manually go through every globally blocked IP since CheckUser is only used for sockpuppet confirmation.

as I plan to reactivate my Tor node at my private internet connection within the next days I hereby request a global IP block exempt. Since a couple of months I add mostly interwikis (regularly [100+ edits] in 15 projects) with http://toolserver.org/~joanjoc/artniw.php, this would be quite hard with a running Tor exit node. My account is [http://toolserver.org/~vvv/sulutil.php?user=Rbrausse not blocked in any language variant] and at the German Wikipedia (my home wiki) I already belong to the [[:de:Spezial:Benutzer/ipblock-exempt|ipblock exempt group]]. It would be great if I could get the right as both Wikipedia and Tor are quite important to me.

SRGP
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.

Requests for global sysop permissions[edit]

Shortcut:
SRGS
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 sysops policy.
Stewards
When you give someone global sysop rights, please list them on Users with global sysop access and ask them to subscribe to the global sysops mailing list.
Instructions for making a request

Before requesting, 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;
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. If you previously requested that right, please add a link to the previous discussion(s).

 |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.

Requests for global rename permissions[edit]

Shortcut:
SRGREN
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 rename policy and the global renamers policy page.

Instructions for making a request

Before requesting, 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;
  3. You have considered the addition of a user language box to your user page
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. If you previously requested that right, please add a link to the previous discussion(s).
=== Global rename for {{subst:u|{{subst:REVISIONUSER}}}} ===
{{sr-request
 |status    = <!-- don't change this line -->
 |domain    = meta.wikimedia <!-- 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). While all input is welcome, there is a hard 80% support requirement for this role as per the global renamer policy.

Requests for global IP block exemption[edit]

Shortcut:
SRIPBE
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.

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;
To request global IP block exemption
