Steward requests (Global permissions)

latest archive→

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. 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

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.

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.

Global sysop for AramilFeraxa

Status:    In progress

• Global user: AramilFeraxa (edits ^(alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)

Not ending before 29 May 2024 07:56 UTC

I would like to request global sysop permissions. I am a meta and plwiki sysop (also a member of arbcom), global rollbacker and global renamer. I try to be active in the fight against xwiki vandalism. There are only a few people who regularly look at GSR, and there are times when reports wait even a few days. And I think I could help them, I am available basically all day. There is always something to do on small wikis, and I'm happy to make myself useful :) I have also already met with voices to try, so I hereby do so. I am familiar with the global sysop policy and of course I already have 2FA enabled. AramilFeraxa (Write to me!) 07:56, 15 May 2024 (UTC)

2FA Tester for Tairosonloa

Status:    In progress

• Global user: Tairosonloa (edits ^(alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)

I just want to enable 2FA on my Wikimedia account, to make it more secure. I already have 2FA enabled in all my accounts online that allow me to. I acknowledge that I can permanently lose access to my account if I lose my 2FA device, and that there is no way to recover it. --Tairosonloa (talk) 18:17, 12 May 2024 (UTC)

@Tairosonloa have you read the help page? TenWhile6 (talk | SWMT) 18:19, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
