Leaderbot informs me that "[my] global permission "global-ipblock-exempt" will expire on 2025-05-19". At en:Wikipedia I'm an admin (which seems to insulate me in en:Wikipedia from global IP blocks); elsewhere I'm a mildly active contributor to Commons and sometimes update WikiData, but only trivially a contributor to anything else. My main purpose in asking for the global exemption to be extended is that, in Commons, I can continue to be able to question the copyright status of dubious images that I encounter in drafts and articles at en:Wikipedia. -- Hoary (talk) 23:17, 12 May 2025 (UTC)

I have been granted IP block exemption at the English-language Wikipedia and Wikidata and have requested this permission on Wikimedia Commons (via email). I use a VPN for work, as I need to have an American IP to access my company's servers, and also to facilitate some of my research for my contributions to Wikimedia projects (such as when I am contributing to articles relating to Australia, certain resources are only available from Australian IPs). Being able to edit whilst connected to a VPN means I can contribute more regularly. The global IP block exempt flag would be useful as it would allow me to contribute to all Wikimedia projects uninterrupted. I mainly contribute to the English-language Wikipedia, Wikimedia Commons and Wikidata but hope to expand my cross-project work.

Global sysop for Aqurs1

- Not ending before 12:35, 28 April 2025 (UTC)
Hello. I'm Aqurs1, a global rollbacker and a sysop in Chinese Wikivoyage. As a SWMT member, I'm active in anti-vandalism and cleaning spam, especially in small wikis with no or less admins. I'm here requesting global sysop right as it can help my work be more efficient when I patrol small wikis (just like what I did in fawikt and other small wikis), I would also like to offer help in Global_sysops/Speedy_delete_requests and GSR where I made over 1500+ edits. The reason I made this application is also because multiple colleagues encouraged me to do so.
I already read and I'm familiar with local policies related to GS. If I'm granted the right, I will take it slowly to learn the toolkits and will not hesitate to ask questions to other GS or stewards if I have any doubts or concerns. 2FA is enabled.

Support- Strike "vote" per BRPever, replacing it with a regretful
. The iswiki incident is all quite poor, I'm disappointed in seemingly a few global sysops' (and potential future GSes/GRs) simply adding flames to the fire here rather than stepping back and reviewing whether they could perhaps take a less aggressive approach to the situation. Again not defending the iswiki sysops involved here either (threatening to "block your ass" and blocking over a few edits from a trusted user is perhaps excessive at best!) but when you write on local talk pages on the way you did, you're just going to be viewed as having your own agenda you want to push on a wiki. You're there to help their community, not to boss them about and tell them how to do their work. Ironically, when you cited AGF towards the admin in question (here), you violated the principle that you also assume the assumption of good faith towards you, which is technically an assumption of bad faith on your end by assuming this was not the case. This is addressed on the very guideline you cited on enwiki, Although bad conduct may seem to be due to bad faith, it is usually best to address the conduct without mentioning motives, which might intensify resentments all around., as well as here on meta However, they may start making personal attacks towards you [...]. Now, you may get angry, right? As a result, your comment certainly did intensify resentments all around, as did other global sysops' comments on the page that I'm not impressed with at all either. --Ferien (talk) 09:46, 21 April 2025 (UTC)
Oppose- Update to
Strong oppose per the doubling down on assuming bad faith below, although I am perhaps more disappointed of the other global sysops who have consistently acted as though they have the right or authority to override smaller wikis on content matters. I would typically reflect on whether they are likely to improve based on the feedback, per what DreamRimmer said, but we have seen nothing other than deflection here from all users involved. Not once have any of the users in question accepted that their actions might have even been slightly out of line. Universal Code of Conduct/Coordinating Committee/Cases/Snævar is also particularly telling on this point, with criticism of their actions being described as victim blaming and de-adminship of the admin being proposed when their own tones worsened the situation for it to get to that point ("go ahead [and block me]", "yeah right" etc are still the type of things heard on a playground too, not on Wikimedia). I doubt this comment will even slightly affect the evasion of responsibility for those involved, but I just thought I'd make my position clear. --Ferien (talk) 10:35, 22 April 2025 (UTC)

- My opinion is that global sysops as more experienced cross-wiki patrollers will set the tone for how discussions play out, so Aqurs1's comments also appear to be matching the attitude of existing GSes such as yourself. It'd be unfair if I only noted Aqurs1's comments when the comments you and SHB2000 made as global sysops come across as just as confrontational if not more so. --Ferien (talk) 13:57, 22 April 2025 (UTC)

Oppose I'd say not now. Initially, I was going to support but the recent iswiki incident has been making me think otherwise. I expect GS to have a certain level of diplomacy skills; this situation was clearly inappropriately handled. If the user is not globally banned or wmf banned, the project has the autonomy over how they handle the content unless it is clearly inappropriate. A mass revert, followed by the argument with local admin who is telling you the edits are fine is by no means acceptable for this role. While I do find few comments by local admin unacceptable for a collaborative community; I think the other involved users also played a part for things to get that far. Thus, the oppose.-BRP ever 09:06, 20 April 2025 (UTC)
- Thanks for feedback. Initially, I do not have any argument against my block. Since the block reason was 'content removal', I was just clarifying what I did actually, and I would fully respect their judgment if they consider those edits are appropriate for the community and advise against reverting them. However, the lack of communication before the block, did made me confused. The 'argument' part would be in Snævar's talk page, and that's not related of my block, it's because I believe their attitude is problematic.

- Notice or warning aren't always necessary before blocks; it usually depends on the community. From what I see you asked local admin for clarification on block reason, which they did. But I do not see you acknowledge any mistake or error from your part there. Normally, unlock requests (at least on my home wikis) starts with understanding of the issue, followed by corrective measures. BRP ever 09:56, 20 April 2025 (UTC)

Oppose In case anyone else is wondering, "the iswiki incident" can be read about here. It doesn't look too great for the candidate. --MF-W 17:11, 21 April 2025 (UTC)
Oppose Sorry, no. The concerns voiced above are clearly problematic, as is you telling a local administrator that what you said above only that show you are refusing to follow policy and assume good faith, in defense of another global rollbacker stating Please stop giving bot permissions to accounts of long term abusers. Uljas kai is a sockpuppet of Risto hot sir, so it should be blocked on sight AND NOT given flood permissions. You are a guest helping out on a wiki that has local administrators. If they don't feel the need to get rid of someone, that needs to be the end of it, and you have not demonstrated a sufficient understanding of the expected behavior of global rollbackers. The behavior seen in that incident isn't behavior I think is really compatible with that of a holder of global rights. EggRoll97 (talk) 03:14, 22 April 2025 (UTC)
- 'Refusing to follow policy and assume good faith' part is for threatening with the word 'block your ass', and the policy is linked to WP:ATTACK on Icelandic Wikipedia version, I really cannot AGF to them if they made harassment like that, as it should goes for both way. If they don't feel the need to get rid of someone, that's completely fine, but the serious thing is don't grant LTA bot or flooder flag, if they think it's not harmful, at least it affected our work. Although that's just a reminder of course, and we can do nothing if they still grant flags to LTA. If you believe that it's a major red flag, I'll respect your decision anyway. aqurs 🍧 03:55, 22 April 2025 (UTC)
- You're still saying don't grant LTA bot or flooder flag. Granting of permission flags is at the discretion of the local administrators, and the demand made by A09 was delivered in a way that began the conversation confrontationally. You defended that "reminder", and I maintain that impacts my assessment of your judgement and communicative abilities as a global rollbacker. EggRoll97 (talk) 04:01, 22 April 2025 (UTC)
- I'd hate to break it to you, but I'm sure being on Meta-Wiki, you'll probably have found on by now that not everyone is a native English speaker. I'm not saying the way Aqurs1 responded was perfect (I certainly would've used phrasing that's a bit more calmer, but I'm also an en-N speaker), but they are also not a native English speaker and expecting them to be spot-on with communication in English goes against the entire principle of the Wikimedia Community aiming to cater to a diverse range of linguistic abilities – all the more so when the phrasing Aqurs1 used was still within the bounds of what's considered civil. I will also say it's pretty disappointing on your end to expect everyone to have that ability. //shb (t • c) 10:15, 22 April 2025 (UTC)
- Aqurs1 did not need to chime into that debate at all. They had the option to simply ignore the talk page in its entirety and remain uninvolved, but decided to chime in regardless. That is a decision that doesn't require linguistic ability to be able to make. Your point is correct that the comment they made was civil. My point is that they do not need to get involved at all.

I'm not saying the way Aqurs1 responded was perfect (I certainly would've used phrasing that's a bit more calmer, but I'm also an en-N speaker), but they are also not a native English speaker and expecting them to be spot-on with communication in English goes against the entire principle of the Wikimedia Community aiming to cater to a diverse range of linguistic abilities – all the more so when the phrasing Aqurs1 used was still within the bounds of what's considered civil. I will also say it's pretty disappointing on your end to expect everyone to have that ability. //shb (t • c) 10:15, 22 April 2025 (UTC)
- If block your ass is truly such an offensive comment that you cannot even bare to assume good faith that the admin could just be having a bad day, how do you intend to deal with the more emotionally charged situations global sysops face? Global sysops have to collaborate with smaller wiki admins, not find themselves in conflict with them. If a single comment stops you from assuming good faith, that shows a poor ability to work through conflict because as much as you seem to like to point to AGF, you're simply not following it. The moment you assume bad faith because of a single bad comment, as you've now explicitly stated you have (I really cannot AGF to them), your assumption of good faith has gone out the window. How can you even point to AGF when you are actively refusing to follow it yourself? --Ferien (talk) 08:40, 22 April 2025 (UTC)
- You're still saying don't grant LTA bot or flooder flag. Granting of permission flags is at the discretion of the local administrators, and the demand made by A09 was delivered in a way that began the conversation confrontationally. You defended that "reminder", and I maintain that impacts my assessment of your judgement and communicative abilities as a global rollbacker. EggRoll97 (talk) 04:01, 22 April 2025 (UTC)
- 'Refusing to follow policy and assume good faith' part is for threatening with the word 'block your ass', and the policy is linked to WP:ATTACK on Icelandic Wikipedia version, I really cannot AGF to them if they made harassment like that, as it should goes for both way. If they don't feel the need to get rid of someone, that's completely fine, but the serious thing is don't grant LTA bot or flooder flag, if they think it's not harmful, at least it affected our work. Although that's just a reminder of course, and we can do nothing if they still grant flags to LTA. If you believe that it's a major red flag, I'll respect your decision anyway. aqurs 🍧 03:55, 22 April 2025 (UTC)

Neutral--Cactus🌵 spiky ouch 06:26, 22 April 2025 (UTC)- Thanks to those who opposed here, which made me think more about it, and let me had some reflect to myself. My main point would be AGF is a two-way street. I believe iswiki should treat all users equally, from those with zero edits to admins and bureaucrats. But when they threatened to block A09 with a statement like that, in my view, is not conducive to collaborative communities like Wikimedia. I always strive to act in good faith, and my replies to the iswiki admins were made in that spirit.
- I am aware of my mistakes in the conversation, that I left confrontational comments to the local sysop, which is not ideal. My stance for the future is clear: I apologies on that, and I will not repeat this type of behavior moving forward.

Hello everyone, I am an edit filter manager on Chinese Wikipedia, I've read the policies and guidelines about rename, and I'd like to help process rename requests on zhwiki and global rename requests written in Chinese. I noticed that the global community expects the requester of this right to have advanced permissions on their home wiki, I'm not sure whether the edit filter manager permission meets this requirement or not, but based on enwiki, I believe it does. So I have submitted my request here. If it does not meet the requirement, I'll withdraw it. Thank you! :) Yours sincerely, Iming 彼女の愛は、甘くて痛い。 04:58, 23 April 2025 (UTC)

Question: If you become a renamer, what would you look at before accepting a rename request? – DreamRimmer (talk) 07:36, 23 April 2025 (UTC)
- Thank you for your question, I will mainly perform the following checks:
- Whether the new username meets the technical requirements;
- Whether the requester has changed their username too many times;
- Whether the requester is currently blocked or has been blocked on any project. Specifically, if there is a block record, then I would wait for another experienced renamer to process it for now.;
- Whether the new username contains any destructive, offensive, defamatory, misleading, or confusing content, or includes any non-public information. (Whether the new username meets the requirement of Chinese Wikipedia)
- In addition to this, I also check the user talk page of requester on their active wiki and home wiki to see how they are doing locally. (e.g. whether they have been nominated in SPI, etc.) Yours sincerely, Iming 彼女の愛は、甘くて痛い。 14:15, 23 April 2025 (UTC)

Question: When handling usurp requests, how to you evaluate "valid edits" under an account? Stang 01:25, 24 April 2025 (UTC)
- Thank you for your question. I believe that if an account has at least 50 edits anywhere, and at least 10 edits in the mainspace or draft pages (including user space), it can be considered as having "valid edits." However, most previous cases involved accounts with few or no edits, and there was no clear consensus in earlier discussions. Therefore, I am not confident in applying this standard universally, and I choose to consider usurp requests case by case. For now, I will not handle usurpation requests for accounts that exceed the standard I mentioned. Yours sincerely, Iming 彼女の愛は、甘くて痛い。 04:16, 24 April 2025 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Jet Pilot. I'd like to request global rollback rights. I have around 16,000 global edits, and most of my cross-wiki activity consists of anti-vandalism work. I'm already experienced with the rollback tool, which I use on several projects where I have the local permission, such as the Spanish Wikipedia (my main wiki) and Meta-Wiki itself. I also use SWViewer regularly as part of my workflow - with my current username, I have logged 5,683 actions, and with my previous username ("Tres Libras") I performed an additional 3,418 actions. My main areas of [antivandalism] activity have been the Spanish, English, Simple English, French, and Bulgarian Wikipedias, as well as Meta-Wiki and MediaWiki. I also occasionally contribute to vandalism reports at GSR and sometimes at SRG. I'm open to feedback and willing to learn from any suggestions or concerns that may arise.

- Hi there! I'm Sid, an Arbitrator on Chinese Wikipedia and an Administrator on zh Wikiversity, as well as a Global rollbacker and renamer. I want to become a GS to assist with requests on GSR and I will also patrol GSRSD. I frequently use tools like SWViewer and TW for patrol work. Due to my cautious personality, I often check edit differences manually and only use tools after confirming everything is in order. This might make the evaluations a bit tricky, I hope no one minds. At the same time, I’d love to hear the global community’s thoughts on me becoming GS. Additionally I often patrol the meta and try to help out as much as I can (e.g. [1]), I think this will help with my evaluations even though meta is not the scope of the GS wiki.
- I understand that for some people my request to become a GS might seem a bit too soon, that’s exactly why I hope to get feedback from the community.
- I have read and understood the GS policy and local GS policies, and enable to 2FA. If I encounter any problems or have doubts, I will not hesitate to seek advice from other GS. Thanks for your consideration, and regardless of the final result, I am very grateful to everyone, best regards, ~~Sid~~ 11:41, 27 May 2025 (UTC)
