latest archive→

This page hosts requests for global (un)blocks, (un)locks and hidings.

• For global IP or account block requests, read the guideline and make a request below under Requests for global (un)block. Indicate why a global block is necessary and for how long.
• For account lock requests, read the guideline and post under Requests for global (un)lock and (un)hiding. Note that temporary accounts can't be locked; in this case please request a global block.
• For local requests here on Meta, see Meta:Requests for help from a sysop or bureaucrat.

---

If you are here because you have been affected by a global block, please see Global blocks/FAQ for more information about global block and routes to appeal.

Note: (un)blocks apply to IP addresses or accounts; and (un)locks apply to global accounts (except temporary accounts).

Requests for global (un)block

Please be sure to follow the instructions below:

Your request might be rejected if you don't follow the instructions.

Please also review Global blocking .

Global blocks don't affect Meta-Wiki, so if your IP address or account is blocked, you can still appeal here. IP addresses or accounts that cause disruption on Meta should be reported at Meta:Requests for help from a sysop or bureaucrat instead of here so that they can be blocked locally.

Please describe the kind of cross wiki abusive activity you see from the IP or account. Saying an IP or account is a long term abuser is not helpful, but saying "IP vandalizes at ban.wikipedia, no.wikipedia and vi.wikipedia" is. This is especially important for range blocks. If you do not provide enough details, your request might be declined.

Instructions for making a request

Before requesting, make sure that: You know the IP address(es) or accounts you wish to have globally blocked or unblocked. For blocks, the global blocking criteria are met. For unblocks, your request addresses the original reason for blocking the IP or account, if any. To make a request for the address(es) or account(s) to be blocked or unblocked Copy the template below to the bottom of this section and explain why the address(es) or account(s) should be blocked/unblocked. === Global block/unblock for [[Special:Contributions/Some IP address or account|Some IP address or account]] === {{Status}} <!-- Do not remove this template --> * {{Luxotool|IP address/username}} Description, evidence, diffs, etc. --~~~~ When requesting that your IP be unblocked, note that stewards need to know your IP address to even consider a request. To find your IP, please visit https://www.whatismyip.com/ You are not required to disclose your IP in public - you may make requests privately to any steward on IRC or by email at: stewardswikimediaorg

Global unblock for 151.48.0.0/17

Status:    In progress

Facts:13th june a steward (masti) blocked this italian ip range globally for six months with the motivation 'Cross-wiki spam: spambot'.There was not a spambot which is a computer making automatical spam edits but just a troll who abused account creation.The steward also blocked about twenty fake accounts created from that ip range whose only edits were message spamming in various wikipedias.I have seen that the messages were invitations to many users to join a votation in it.wikipedia.org which was closed short after so probably the abuser would have stopped anyway.But yet the block is still active for about 33000 ips until december.
Considerations:a global block is useful to protect wikipedia but this kind of block exceeds this need.It is excessive both because the abuser has apparently no more reasons to continue his abuse and because to stop his abuse it was sufficient preventing users from that ip range from creating new accounts instead of blocking completely the possibility to edit anything.I know that every block causes unavoidably some collateral damage but in this case the collateral damage is too high but most important it is not necessary.I would not be asking to unblock the ip range if the problem was a spambot or an anonymous user who spammed his messages from various ip addresses from this range.I am asking to unblock the ip range because the abuser used the new accounts he continued creating to spam messages.
Request:imho the most proper solution which both protects wikipedia from the abuser's possible return and makes the least possible collateral damage for the remaining 33000 innocent users is globally blocking new account creations but allowing editing from ips.In this way users can continue contributing anonymously and it would be even easier checking possible disruptive edits by keeping an eye on the ip range.Also consider that this italian ip range is maybe the most common provided by the telecommunication company 'Wind' and that a large part of italian contributors are currently prevented from editing for no justified reason.It is still possible that some users from this ip range will commit some abuse but no ip range contains zero percent of abuse and from this ip range no more abuse than from any other ip range is committed.You can check the contributions from the blocked ip range in it.wikipedia.org to verify my affirmation.So please review this six months global block and change its settings to allow normal users to make their usual constructive edits while preventing the abuser from creating new accounts.

Persistent cross-wiki vandalism for the past several months (going back more than a year on en.wiki). This person has vandalized en.wiki, es.wiki, pt.wiki, fr.wiki, de.wiki, and Simple Wikipedia recently (other sites are probably affected as well). Most of the abuse involves date-changing vandalism and BLP vandalism (including attacks). The LTA appears to be the only person using this range, and there are almost no positive contributions on any wiki in the past year. After being rangeblocked on en.wiki in June, they took their vandalism cross-wiki again, most notably on simple.wiki. Please block the range (set to "anon-only") for at least 6 months.

Requests for global (un)lock and (un)hiding

Be sure to follow the instructions below:

• Your request might be rejected if it doesn't include the necessary information.
• Warning! This page is publicly viewable. If the account name is grossly insulting or contains personal information please contact a steward privately in #wikimedia-stewards^connect or email your request to the stewards VRT queue at stewards-oversightwikimediaorg (direct wiki interface) but do not post it here. Thanks.
• Warning! This is not the place to ask for locks based on your opinion that someone is disruptive. Global locks are used exclusively against vandalism and spam, not because of content disputes, not because you think that someone deserves to be globally blocked. In such cases, you should ask for local blocks at appropriate places.
• If you are globally locked, you should appeal your lock to stewards-appealswikimediaorg.

Please describe abusive activity of an account before reporting them here. Since stewards are often not active at projects the reported accounts are, things that seem obvious to you may not be equally obvious to the reviewing steward.

Instructions for making a request

Before requesting that a global account be (un)locked, please be sure that: You have evidence of cross-wiki disruption from the account(s). You can show that it is not feasible to use local-only blocks or other measures like page protection to combat the disruption. You have considered making the request in #wikimedia-stewardsconnect, especially for account names which will be hidden, or for urgent requests. To make a request for an account to be locked or unlocked Copy one of the codes below to the bottom of this section and explain why the account(s) should be locked/unlocked. === Global lock/unlock for Foo === {{status}} <!-- do not remove this template --> * {{LockHide|username}} * {{LockHide|username|hidename=1}} <!-- if you do not want the name to be visible on this page --> *...

Both users were locked as the result of a recent check on an LTA on Chinese Wikipedia. However, we are confident that both users are NOT the LTA himself for clear behavioral evidence. Please unlock these accounts immediately or it would be definitely bad for newbies. --Techyan（Talk） 14:06, 16 August 2019 (UTC)

I don't know are they innocent or not, however, there is a huge local discussion where many users expresses their faith that the user is innocent. I have no comments on this case but I wish that the stewards can make a through investigation and hope that this can be resolved as soon as possible. I hope that more information can be given (like the ISPs / UA used) and how the stewards make determination that the users are socks of NDC. Thanks much. --Cohaf (talk) 11:02, 17 August 2019 (UTC)

@Ruslik0:Thanks for your reply. First, 应援小嵩鼠 have just edited the pages about the singer 許嵩 and 娱乐新闻 have just edited the page about the actor 陳嘉俊. Their editing behavior is different from Nipponese Dog Calvero. Second, 应援小嵩鼠 said that he lives in Mainland China that he use Simplified Chinese to edit and he needs to use different proxies to edit Wikipedia. So 应援小嵩鼠 and 哀悼中國共產黨竊國70週年 IP may same. Third, 应援小嵩鼠 is his third account. His first account 音樂人許嵩 and second account 許嵩和格洛米 is blocked because he used the misleading username and violate w:zh-tw:WP:UN. So he created third account and the same created time is a coincidence. Please unlock user 应援小嵩鼠 and 娱乐新闻. Thank you! (edited at 1:43 p.m UTC in 20 Aug)--SCP-2000 (talk) 12:56, 19 August 2019 (UTC)
