I believe there is some error here, as Innv is an admin on Russian Wikisource (their [http://toolserver.org/~vvv/sulutil.php?user=Innv homewiki], and I have found this user to be productive on both Russian and English Wikisource. They are a sysop on many other wikis, notably mediawikiwiki. I suggest that this request be dropped unless someone in good standing puts their name to this request.

Revision as of 00:41, 5 August 2008
Interface-translations are done at Betawiki.
For urgent requests, such as to combat large-scale vandalism on a small wiki, contact a steward in the #wikimedia-stewardsconnect IRC channel (see a web-based IRC client). In emergencies only, type !steward
in the channel to inform stewards that you need help.
Please only make requests here after gaining the on-wiki approval of your local community.

Confirmation of identity
Certain permissions (notably CheckUser and Oversight) additionally require users to confirm their identity. Users requesting these permissions must make a request below, and must also submit the relevant identification to the Foundation. The request is placed on hold temporarily, until receipt has been formally confirmed by the office.
Instructions for how you can confirm your identity can be found at: Steward handbook/email templates.

Requests
Administrator access
Bureaucrat access
HalanTul@sahwiki
I request bureaucrat access.

- Automatic List of local bureaucrats: sah:Special:Listusers/bureaucrat
- Local User Page: sah:User:HalanTul
Thank you. ~Innvs: 16:00, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
CheckUser access
To request CheckUser information, see Request for CheckUser information. This is the place to request CheckUser access. Note that temporary CheckUser access is not permitted.
Stewards: When someone asks for CheckUser status, please check the current policy regarding bestowal of status before giving the status. The current mail template to use to request identification from the new CU can be found here. Do not grant CheckUser access unless the user is identified to the foundation, which will be announced on the Identification noticeboard. Breaching these rules may be cause for removing your steward access. When you give someone CheckUser, please list them on CheckUser, ask them to subscribe to checkuser-l, email checkuser-l-owner@wikipedia.org so that the listadmins know the person is allowed on the mailing list (the list may contain confidential information), and make sure they contact an op for access to #wikimedia-checkuser.
Cruccone@it.wikipedia
Please grant checkuser access to Cruccone@it.wikipedia due to successful poll
- Language Code: it
- Local Request Link: it:Wikipedia:Check user/Elezioni/Cruccone, it:Wikipedia:Check user/Sistema di voto
- Local User Page: it:Utente:Cruccone
Thanks. --Brownout(msg) 10:13, 9 July 2008 (UTC)
- On hold please provide to send your identification to the Foundation--Nick1915 - all you want 12:23, 9 July 2008 (UTC)
- STILL On hold... This has been on hold for a long time. I have sent Cruccone another mail, using the en and it versions of the template. I hope that helps. ++Lar: t/c 13:41, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
- Cruccone's it.wikipedia user talk page says Cruccone is moving, and the user hasn't edited since 29 June 2008. I think this may be on hold for a while. :| Kylu 16:01, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
- STILL On hold... This has been on hold for a long time. I have sent Cruccone another mail, using the en and it versions of the template. I hope that helps. ++Lar: t/c 13:41, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
Oversight access
Do not initiate an oversight request here. The Arbitration Committee will make the request once there is consensus on the local wiki (this process is currently for en-Wikipedia only).
Stewards: Do not grant Oversight access unless the user is identified to the foundation, which will be announced on the Identification noticeboard. When you give someone oversight access, list them on Hiding revisions.
Removal of access
If you want to request that your own status be removed, please don't forget to place a note on your local user talk page (preferably with an English translation). This is required to prove your identity. And then add the request here. You should add the difflink of your local confirmation edit to the request.
To request the removal of another user's status, you must gain consensus on the local wiki first. All discussion must be kept on your local wiki. When there is community consensus that the user's access should be removed, a trusted person from that wiki should provide a link here to the discussion, a very brief explanation of the reason for the request, and summarize the results of discussion.
Copy and paste the following text into the correct section. Fill in all the required fields -- language code, link to the local request, and link to your local user page. Without this information, a steward cannot process your request.
==== Username@language-code project-name ==== I request removal of my '''sysop''' access. *'''Language Code:''' xx *'''Local Confirmation/Request Link:''' <!--Difflink of the local confirmation edit (for own requests), or link to the community decision--> *'''Local User Page:''' [[xx:User:Example]] Thank you. ~~~~
Please summarize your request in the "summary".
Innv@ruwikisource, Innv@ruwikiquote, Innv@ruwiki
I request removal and block this user on Wikimedia wikis. This user is [Afninogenoff]'s (indefblocked vandal & troll) sockpuppet. Please remove all permissions and check this user! See this information - quote anonymous Wikipedia user: "Watch carefully for the community, Andy (AndyVolykhov) and VasilievVV reported that Afinogenoff on Wikipedia, and another heap of projects - a Innv." (russian: Следите внимательнее за сообществом, ВасильВВ и Энди сообщали, что Афиногенов в Википедии и еще куче проектов - это "участница" Innv.). This is serious sockpuppeter (more 28 indefblocked puppet), see Request for Russian Wikipedia Checkusers and old version list of sockpuppeter.

Tnank you, 80.234.6.97 22:21, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
- Why do You think this user is "Afninogenoff". Besides ru.wiki has local checkusers. Thanks, --birdy geimfyglið (:> )=| ∇ 23:08, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, ru.wiki has local checkusers. Need cross-wiki check this user on more 50 Wikimedia wikis. 80.234.6.97 23:22, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
- No, first there must be a reason for a check. --birdy geimfyglið (:> )=| ∇ 23:30, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
- This is sockpuppet of serious vandal Afinogenoff, see Pauk's quote in LJ: [russian:А разве Таллирдиева фотки публиковала? И тоже УЖЕ не в Википедии.][english:How Tallirdieva photos published? And also not ALREADY in Wikipedia.][comment:Tallidieva is Afinogenoff's indefblocked virtual] - they wrote this on livejournal community ru_wikipedia.
- No, first there must be a reason for a check. --birdy geimfyglið (:> )=| ∇ 23:30, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
- Answer to this post: 1) [AndyVolykhov:1) публиковала; 2) нет, в Википедии, под другим логином.][english:1) published; 2) No, in Wikipedia, under another username.]. 2) [AndyVolykhov:Фотка уже удалена, видимо. А ник сейчас, как писал админ меты на IRC-канале - Innv.][english: Photo has already been removed, apparently. A nick now, as the Meta-sysop wrote to IRC-channel - Innv.][comment:Innv=Tallirdieva=Afinogenoff]. 80.234.6.97 23:51, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
- Ok, that is no prove of it. If You continue to replace Innvs pages across wiki I will block Your account Сварог Всевышний, so please stop that (also don't do it with other accounts...). Ru.wiki checkusers can comment here tomorrow, they might sleep now. Thanks, --birdy geimfyglið (:> )=| ∇ 23:55, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
- Ok. Thanks. Everything should be done to block all accounts this serious sockpuppeter/vandal. Afinogenoff created a lot of offensive sockpuppet and more provocations. 80.234.6.97 23:59, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
- Ok, thanks. As I feared I can't reach anyone at this hour, I will talk to ru.wiki checkusers tomorrow as this is not an emergency right now. I have added Innv to our watchlist, so nothing unexpected can happen. --birdy geimfyglið (:> )=| ∇ 00:21, 5 August 2008 (UTC)
I believe there is some error here, as Innv is an admin on Russian Wikisource (their homewiki, and I have found this user to be productive on both Russian and English Wikisource. They are a sysop on many other wikis, notably mediawikiwiki. I suggest that this request be dropped unless someone in good standing puts their name to this request.

Temporary permissions for emergency or technical purposes
If you are requesting administrator status to make a translation of the wiki interface, see also the BetaWiki project, which seeks to make a neutral MediaWiki translation that will then be default for all wikis. That is more useful than only making a local translation. You can ask questions in the IRC channel or in the mailing list. See also MediaWiki localisation. If you are requesting adminship to handle one-time vandalism incidents or clearing a deletion backlog, please see Vandalism reports and Multilingual speedy deletions.
Stewards: Currently active temporary permissions are listed at /Approved temporary. When granting a request, please copy the request to the appropriate section there, and clearly state the date of removal. Requests only need remain listed below for a few days, and may afterward be removed as long as they have been copied to the subpage.
Copy and paste the following text into the correct section. Fill in all the required fields -- language code, link to the list of sysops and bureaucrats, local request link, link to your local user page, and the preferred duration with a reason. Without this information, a steward cannot process your request.
====Username@language-code project-name==== I request temporary sysop access. *'''Language Code:''' xx *'''List of local sysops:''' [[xx:Special:Listadmins]] *'''List of local bureaucrats:''' [[xx:Special:Listusers/bureaucrat]] *'''Local Request Link:''' [[xx:Example]] *'''Local User Page:''' [[xx:User:Example]] *'''Preferred duration and reason:''' Thank you. ~~~~
Miscellaneous requests
Reminder
- Import rights can be granted by stewards only, not bureaucrats, so the automatic list of local bureaucrats is irrelevant for this.
- Usurpation requests should be placed at Steward requests/Usurpation.
- Username changes should be placed at Requests for username changes.
- Please make sure you have your accounts renamed before merging them.
Requests for global permissions
- Before requesting, make sure that:
- You have a global account;
- You are logged in on this wiki, and the account is part of your global account;
- You have read the relevant description page for the access you want (see Global rollback). Your request might be rejected if you don't follow their instructions, and not doing so would reflect poorly on your suitability.
- To 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 [[user:Foo|Foo]]==== {{sr-request |status = <!-- don't change this line --> |domain = global <!-- don't change this line --> |user name = }} Explanation here. ~~~~
Stewards will review the request. The request will be approved if at least three stewards endorse it and there are no objections after a short period (typically approximately three days). If there is steward opposition, the discussion will require at least one week and 75% steward approval. Non-steward users are welcome to discuss as well, though stewards will make the final decision. (It is appreciated if non-steward users use {{comment}} instead of the yes/no templates to reduce confusion among those who do not have all the stewards memorised)
Global rollback for Erwin
- Global user: Erwin (edits (alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)
I'd like to able to have global rollback access as I'm active in reverting cross-wiki spam and vandalism. Please note that I've been on holiday lately and haven't made any contributions during that time. --Erwin(85) 10:01, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
- Note for stewards
- SUL is not complete, please chose a wiki (e.g. Metawiki) if You add him to global rollback, thanks, --birdy geimfyglið (:> )=| ∇ 11:55, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
- Support, contributions show long time cross-wiki spam removing, thanks for helping, --birdy geimfyglið (:> )=| ∇ 11:41, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
- Comment, dedicated crosswiki worker. Active & trusted. --Herby talk thyme 11:43, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
- 'Support'support —DerHexer (Talk) 11:44, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
- Comment, very active on cross wiki anti spam front. Certainly trusted. --Beetstra public 21:10, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
- Comment Trusted user, should have global rollback for reasons mentioned in user's nom. Cirt 22:55, 2 August 2008 (UTC)
- Support sure. --Thogo (talk) 09:43, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
- Yes please — Mike.lifeguard | @en.wb 20:36, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
Global rollback for EivindJ
- Global user: EivindJ (edits (alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)
Member of the Small Wiki Monitoring Team, trying to revert all vandalism I come over at small wikis. E.g., [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8]. I haven't been a SWMT member for too long, so if more contributions are necessary before I can request Global rollback, please let me know! Thanks in advance. EivindJ 11:44, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
- Support, trusted user (sysop nowikt), helpful, friendly, hard working, active helping in swmt, thanks for helping, --birdy geimfyglið (:> )=| ∇ 12:02, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
- Comment, former sysop nowiki, interested in many languages and only good experiences with him from nowiki. Laaknor 23:23, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
- Comment, I don't think new members of the SWMT would qualify for this, since people who have cross-wiki experience for a very long time should be a priority...--Cometstyles 22:56, 2 August 2008 (UTC)
- That's not a reason to deny someone. Majorly talk 23:02, 2 August 2008 (UTC)
- I find that highly irritating, I looked at his contributions not when he added some template to his userpage. And his contributions show cross-wiki vandalfighting experience, thanks, --birdy geimfyglið (:> )=| ∇ 23:14, 2 August 2008 (UTC)
- That's not a reason to deny someone. Majorly talk 23:02, 2 August 2008 (UTC)
- Comment Trusted user and active on smaller projects (and trusted there) as mentioned above, should be useful with global rollback. Cirt 23:00, 2 August 2008 (UTC)
- Support Short period of activity is no reason why not. --Thogo (talk) 09:44, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
- Comment A user who'd benefit from the tool immensely. Rudget. 13:46, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
Global rollback for Nixeagle
- Global user: Nixeagle (edits (alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)
I'm planning on getting into counter vandalism again. I'm already a meta sysop, and I have experience in this task. One of the things that must be done is reverting crosswiki spam before or after we blacklist those links. You will see that I have been active back in April 2008: Spam_blacklist/Log#April_2008, and prior to that Spam_blacklist/LogPre2008#February_2007, for a period of about 3 months. (note that Eagle 101 was my old username). —— nixeagle 17:30, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
- I would like to vouch for Nixeagle here. He often does excellent work in a variety of areas, and I believe he'd use this tool well. --Anonymous DissidentTalk 21:08, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
- I support this, Nixeagle is a trusted user who I believe will contribute positively in this form. MBisanz talk 21:30, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
- Normally I'd suggest waiting a while, but Eagle is a well trusted user, and was, at one point the most active user on the spam blacklist pages. He's become more active lately in this area, and I think global rollback will suit him well. Majorly talk 21:44, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
- Hm, I tend to Oppose (or better not yet). You did a couple of cross-wiki edits just in the 10 minutes after you put in this candidature here, but that was after 4 months of nothing (and the activity phase in March/April was also not more than two weeks). I would say, let's wait one or two months. --Thogo (talk) 21:46, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
- Looking at this, I really don't think she has any cross-wiki experience so as per Thogo, not yet...--Cometstyles 22:38, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
- I unluckily concurr with Thogo: not yet, quite possibly later. Regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 22:43, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
