Global rollback for Rrmsjp

The following request is closed. Please do not modify it. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
Status:    Not done

I have the rollbacker flag on Eswiki, Enwiki and Simplewiki. Also I am Sysop at Eswikti. I have experience reverting vandalism, and I think I can be useful on all English and Spanish projects, and also in Lad projects. I leave this at your consideration, if you think I can be useful with this flag. Thanks. --Rrm·Sjp Eswiki Dewiki SimpleWiki 01:30, 8 March 2010 (UTC)

For now we will not grant global rollback. We do appreciate your anti-vandalism work, but global rollback is intended specifically for users actively fighting vandalism on a large number of projects. This means that doing SWMT work for a few months is pretty much a prerequisite for being granted global rollback. If you're interested in helping out please do so. If you have any questions you can always ask a SWMT member of a steward. --Erwin 18:45, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

Latest about 2 months I have been watching small wiki and as possible, revert spam links, vandalism and incorrect edits or mark pages for speedy deletion. For more effectively cross-wiki work I need this flag. Some examples such my latest edits: 1, 2, 3, 4 etc. My current flags are represented on the user page. Thanks — Jack 13:04, 6 March 2010 (UTC)

    Yes, mostly my cross-wiki contribution is manually interwiki, but antispam/antivandalism edits I make since ~ January 2010. Automatic interwiki's bot I run only before accept bot flag on ru-wiki, a few times on ~5 projects because don't have global bot flag now. Some days ago I make SUL for my additional account for future bot and divide cross-wiki contribiton (interwiki / other). Sorry, I do not remember exactly the first edit within SWMT project activity, but think, now a few tens such edits include on deleted pages. By my logs I joined to the #cvn-sw channel since 9 jan 2010, but date of first edit during monitor I don't know, may be same or approximate. — Jack 09:02, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

    •   Not done There are,unfortunately, only a few respondents here, and of those heavily involved in small-wiki work, it does not appear that there is a consensus to allow Jackie to have the global rollback maintenance tool at this time. My suggestion to Jackie would be to accept the constructive criticism and to spend a month or two more actively in small wiki work, after which the next request should sail through smoothly. Good luck and thank you for volunteering! -- Avi 14:23, 21 March 2010 (UTC)

Global rollback for Bsadowski1

I have remained active crosswiki since my last request, doing many reverts and taggings, and I think that rollback globally would help me do the job faster. I also have been doing XWiki spam reports as well. --Bsadowski1 07:11, 24 March 2010 (UTC)

Global sysop for Tiptoety

The following request is closed. Please do not modify it. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
Status:    Done
  • Hello, I am Tiptoety. Currently our Stewards are overworked, and often I come to find that there are none online when they are most needed. I would like to help to resolve this issue by throwing in my hat for global sysop. I currently serve as an administrator at the English Wikipedia, Wikimedia Commons, and Meta (as well as a couple of simple projects). I also serve as a CheckUser at Commons. Being that I currently have global rollback, I am a participant in the small wiki monitoring team and have performed a number of vandalism reverts on a multitude of projects. I understand that global sysop is simply a tool, and does not give the holder of said permission the right to enact community consensus, override the decisions of local community members and/or sysops, or involve him/herself in editorial disputes. Cheers, Tiptoety talk 04:51, 1 March 2010 (UTC)

← Oh dear. I guess I could see how my comment could easily be construed as a pompous reply to failing an RfA. That was not my intention at all. ;-) Instead it was more of a "I was offering to help perform non-controversial tasks such as deleting attack pages, and blocking vandals. But with the possible implementation of global sysops coming up this RfA may be a bit pointless." I will agree though that being a local administrator is far different than that of a global sysop. Like I stated in my nomination statement, global sysops are simply a group of trusted users who have a few special technical abilities to stop imminent threats to smaller projects. I do not plan on using the tools for anything other than that. Hope that clears things up. Cheers, Tiptoety talk 22:24, 8 March 2010 (UTC)

Global sysop for Jamesofur

The following request is closed. Please do not modify it. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
Status:    Done
  • Hello, I am Jamesofur (James Alexander). I know that the creation of this group was slightly controversial but I honestly feel that it will be a big help for the small wikis. As Tiptoety said above and we have said many times the Stewards are over worked. No where is this more true then with xwiki vandalism, abuse and spam. I hold Global Rollback permissions as well as Checkuser on Simple Wiki and sysop both on Simple and here on Meta. I am constantly on IRC and available for emergences even when working on other projects. I think that with the small number of stewards that were selected this year (and the large amount of stewards that have left us over the past year) the xwiki work will be even more stressed and I would like to help out with that as much as I possibly can. Even more so then Global Rollback (which is not a tool without its share of problems on small wikis) Global Sysops need to be very careful to make sure they do not interfere with the local community, in the end the local community wins REGARDLESS of what I think in the matter personally and I intend to live by that through out my time there and to totally remove myself from any kind of content dispute. As always please please feel free to ask questions if you have one, I will be happy to answer.James (T C) 05:08, 1 March 2010 (UTC)

Global sysop for Seb az86556

The following request is closed. Please do not modify it. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
Status:    Not done

Yes -- what am *I* doing here? Given my opposition to the whole idea during the vote, it should be crystal clear that I am aware of the dangers, implications, and possibility for abuse that these tools include. That's exactly what makes me a perfect candidate for this job - I know how I would feel if some outsider messed with nv.wiki, and I will be wary to consider this each and every time. In addition, I intend to use these exclusively on Native American wikis which I patrol on a daily basis. Furthermore, I will voluntarily surrender these tools upon the first complaint received. That's for the record. Seb az86556 05:24, 1 March 2010 (UTC)

  • Indeed weird. I see your point. I think its better to get admin flag on those wikis you monitor. On the other hand I think local admin at a wiki means much more than being a global one, operating in the same wiki, especially in a small wiki. Global admin is for trivial maintenance (such trivial that you don't even need to understand the language). I tend to   Support per you being aware of "dangers, implications, and possibility for abuse" and "will voluntarily surrender these tools upon the first complaint received". --Egmontaℨ♤ 13:22, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
  • I tend to agree with Egmontaz. Wouldn't it be better to get admin on the wikis where you plan to carry out administrative tasks? I think that'll be better than getting GS which means getting admin on over 50 wikis. If you are going to edit only on 2-3 wikis, why do you need this flag? Cheers, Pmlineditor ∞ 13:26, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
    • Question is: Wouldn't that look even weirder? Seriously - I pop up on Admin-requests and say Cheyenne, Inupak, Inuktitut, Cherokee, Aymara, Guarani -- that's 6, and yes, all of'em, please (I already have the flag for Navajo, by the way...). Ah well, just trying to help... Seb az86556 13:46, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
      • Getting temp admin on 6 wikis isn't too difficult. Sorry, but while I appreciate your work, I can't support this and will be neutral. If you work actively for some more time, that's a support from me. Pmlineditor ∞ 07:08, 2 March 2010 (UTC)
  •   Oppose - Lack of SWMT work. Would advise that you ask for temp adminship on the projects that you actually intend to use the tools on. NW (Talk) 18:41, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
  •   Support In general you don't go with what I think the main requirements (Global Rollback for experience etc) should be but you have proven yourself and for what you request... I'm ok with. I trust you and think you could do a lot of good for those wikis and while yes you could ask for it on all of them there are enough that I think this is a valid request (1,2,3 for example is not at all). I do kind of hope this doesn't bite me in the behind and cause people to point at precedence but /me shrugs you have to do what you think is right regardless of what others think.

  • Support - Imo normally both previous sysop and SWMT experience are essential for a succesful RfGS, but in this case that does not apply. His edits show this user is experienced and that he can be trusted, he's willing to help, he knows his limits and he promises not to use the tool on other projects than the ones he mentioned.

Global sysop for Innv

The following request is closed. Please do not modify it. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
Status:    Done

Hi friends! I'm active user in many WMF wikis, active member of SWMT, worker in small slavic-wikis (info), global rollbacker. My main work - fighting with cross-wiki spam and vandalism. I have big sysop expirence in different projects (currently I'm admin on Meta, Ru-wikisource, StrategyWiki, etc).

Global sysop need for me because:

  • I plan cleanup small wikis (remove test pages, vandalism, spam, etc);
  • I will block the vandals and other abusers in small wiki;
  • I can make help for local communities of small wikis with abusefilter and mediawiki edits (optionally, if needed).

Else I want to help the stewards in their hard work (associated with the GS rights).

Global sysop for Pmlineditor

The following request is closed. Please do not modify it. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
Status:    Done

Hi, I am Pmlineditor. I am an active member of SWMT and I often revert crosswiki vandalism and tag pages for deletion. I have been a global rollbacker for nearly 5 months now and I'm an admin on Meta, Simple Wikipedia, Simple Wiktionary and a probationary custodian on English Wikiversity. I think I can help out with GS as I am quite active in SW patrol; often tagging vandalism pages for deletion and asking stewards to block users. As a global sysop, I can do these tasks myself provided there is no other local admin around. I will always try not to offend/disturb the local community and will never handle deletions/blocking where community decision is necessary and will not override local discussions or perform any controversial and unacceptable tasks. It is often seen that there are too few stewards to handle massive cw vandalism and I think that I can help with this. My timezone is UTC+5:30, which is probably different from most others. Additionally, I am bn-N, hi-3, hif-2 which should also help. Thank you for your consideration. Cheers, Pmlineditor ∞ 06:43, 1 March 2010 (UTC)

Global sysop for Prince Kassad

The following request is closed. Please do not modify it. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
Status:    Done

Hello. I am Prince Kassad and I help to keep the wiki clean, tagging pages for deletion on small wikis to let other sysops know this page needs to be deleted. However, there are those wikis which are very dormant: they get little to no activity, their sysops, if any, left the project years ago and they're real breeding grounds for vandalism. We're way understaffed at the moment to deal with this problem, and I believe I could help in cleaning up the vandalism. Global sysop is, of course, not a sign of power, it is not at all meant to override or subdue the local community; its sole purpose is helping in deleting obvious vandalism pages (gibberish, attack pages, etc.) and blocking IPs and users who destroy good content with their vandalism. I am a sysop on enwiktionary so I already know my way around with the sysop tools, and I've asked for temporary sysop several times before to clean up the large backlog of pages for deletion. -- Prince Kassad 06:56, 1 March 2010 (UTC)

    •   Not done We realize that there appears to be improper off-wiki canvassing, possibly from both sides of an internal RuWiki political fracas. As such, we have taken this into consideration; especially as these discussions are not a vote but discussions. However, the issues regarding behavior and trust that were raised sufficiently resonated among respondents, especially those not actively involved in RuWiki politics, to indicate that there is no consensus among those supplying an opinion here to allow putnik access to the global sysop toolbox at this time. It should be reiterated, however, that targeted off-wiki communications to specifically affect on-wiki processes (e.g. above and beyond friendly notices) are forbidden, and evidence indicating violation of wikimedia policies may result in actions being taken in the future to protect the projects and ensure their integrity. -- Avi 15:46, 22 March 2010 (UTC)
      Well, I only see two NO votes from users not involved in ru.wiki politics: those of Udmulu and Pmlineditor. The majority of others have been indefinitely blocked from ru.wiki for disruptive behavior. This seems to be a result of off-wiki canvassing--Yaroslav Blanter 18:21, 22 March 2010 (UTC

Global sysop for Hercule

The following request is closed. Please do not modify it. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
Status:    Done

Hello,

I'm Hercule,

My home wiki is the french Wikipedia, but I'm active on small wikis, where I do frequent patrols. I've been temporary sysop on corsican Wikibooks (rights log) and aceh Wikipedia (rights log). I'm also bureaucrat and sysop on wu Wikipedia. So I have experience on small wiki administration. I had requested the global roolback flag few times ago, but it was refused because most of my patrols consist in tagging pages for deletion, not to revert crosswiki vandalism. So I think that global sysop is the flag that suite to my SWMT activity.

I will also soon become sysop on french Wikipedia. I'm also sysop on french Wikipedia.

I founded many of my ser pages completly destructed by a bot, whereas I never asked him to update my interwikis. The fact that a user decide to touch many of my user page without my authorization is not acceptable for me (It is a personnal decision to just post a link to my home wiki on non Wikipedia projets). The fact that the mistake was not corrected before I asked it is a second bad point. For this reason I said it is vandalism when I discovered it. But I don't consider that the user that make this is a vandal, and I never asked any sanctions for that (and will not request any^^). --Hercule 17:28, 2 March 2010 (UTC)

Hi. I'm a global rollbacker, bureaucrat on ptwikisource and former sysop on other wikis, still have a global bot. I haven't been too active lately, but can help a lot as a global sysop; and think that my global experience is sufficient (just see my SUL page). --Lucas Nunes 01:04, 3 March 2010 (UTC)

hmm , i don't think 11 votes is enough for GS , do we have any min criteria  ? --Mardetanha talk 09:59, 17 March 2010 (UTC)
GS just says "consensus" is needed, and I think that has been achieved here. Might be worth looking into setting a minimum limit, though. –Juliancolton | Talk 18:21, 17 March 2010 (UTC)
Yes , and "consensus" seems to be clear here but in general i have feeling global status should get more attention , i really think it worth having min criteria --Mardetanha talk 18:24, 17 March 2010 (UTC)
See Talk:Global sysops#Should there be a minimum level of support together with consensus to become a global sysop? -- Avi 14:56, 19 March 2010 (UTC)

Global sysop for Amdf

Status:    Not done

Hi. I am amdf, my home wiki is Russian. I'm active in ru-wiki and in some small wikis in languages of Russia, such as Erzya Wikipedia (myv:), Meadow Mari Wikipedia mhr: and others. I was a temporary sysop of mhr-wiki (august-november 2009), in that time there were no local admins there. I was a test administrator of Erzya Wikipedia in incubator, before it was opened, and now I am a test administrator of Hill Mari Wikipedia, see incubator:Incubator:Test-administrators. I want a global sysop account to help small wikipedias in languages of Russia. амдф 09:31, 8 March 2010 (UTC)

btw as Derhexer suggest best idea for you is temp-)sysopship --Mardetanha talk 15:07, 8 March 2010 (UTC)
  Question: Do you think advertising your candidacy for Global Sysop is a good idea? ru:Обсуждение Википедии:Проект:Малые разделы Википедии на языках России#Глобальные администраторы m:Global sysops Sukida 20:56, 8 March 2010 (UTC)
This meta-project for the coordination and support for small wikis, are attracted to ru-wiki (the wiki in the languages of the peoples of Russia), based on ruwiki-user's knowlege and experience. What is wrong? Support of user:amdf - not the result of advertising, but the result of his initiative and his reputation as a partisipant of the project. This is not an advertising campaign in ru-wiki - it is rather the candidate nominated by the local "small wiki support"-project. (sorry for my wrong english)--Kaganer 17:42, 14 March 2010 (UTC)

Global sysop for NuclearWarfare

The following request is closed. Please do not modify it. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
Status:    Done
Hi all, I am NuclearWarfare. I had said earlier that I wasn't planning on running for global sysop (even though I was the one that authored the proposal[2]). However, I am planning on getting involved with SWMT again, and I figure that the global sysop flag would be helpful. In addition to being a sysop on enwiki, commonswiki, and metawiki, I have been a global rollbacker since last June, and I have made just about fifteen hundred antivandalism edits since becoming active with SWMT.

I do wish to acknowledge that about a year ago, when I was relatively new to SWMT, I made some serious mistakes with the use of a temporary admin flag that I received for uncontroversial maintenance. The maintenance turned out to be not so uncontroversial, and I really should not have done it in the first place. This incident is the one that Mike.lifeguard alludes to in his comment at my request for global rollback (linked above). As such, I promise to only use these tools to combat blatant vandalism, or when specifically requested to by local administrators.

Please feel free ask me any questions you have; I will be glad to answer them. Cheers, NW (Talk) 05:28, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

Global sysop for JAn Dudík

The following request is closed: d. Please do not modify it. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
Status:    Not done

Hello, I want to ask for global sysops rights. I am sysop and bureaucrate of cs.wikipedia. My international domain is mainly interwiki linking with JAnDbot. During this work I sometimes found vandalised page in some small project, but there are some locked pages with incorrect interwiki (links to irrelevant artcles or bad redirects). So I would use mainly editprotected, sometimes rollback or delete (mainteance or sure vandalism) and only in rare cases blocking. JAn Dudík 12:28, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

  •   Support Trusted, helpful and highly experienced admin. --Mercy 17:20, 9 March 2010 (UTC)
  •   Oppose Sorry just not sure this is the right position for you at least at the moment :/ I would have no problem with global rollback (which would give you rollback as well as the ability to at least do semi-protected pages but we've made it very clear to people that this position is anti-vandalism only and I'm just not sure your activity in that area is enough despite your great work. Sorry :( James (T C) 18:38, 12 March 2010 (UTC)
  •   Oppose per Jamesofur. Maybe the global editinterface right (see one section below) would fit better to what you want to do. --MF-W 17:03, 13 March 2010 (UTC)
  •   Comment: please add activity as cross-wiki spam/vandal-fighter and create new request later. Thanks and regards, —Innv {ru-ws} 02:08, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

Global sysop for Mentifisto

The following request is closed. Please do not modify it. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
Status:    Done

I would like to be more efficient at what I do; I think I'm quite active xwiki, so I'm sure I'll find the tools useful. I had 79% support in the SE, which (presumably) indicates widespread trust in the global community. I plan to be mindful and thorough with local communities, as I always try to be in normal circumstances. -- Mentifisto 21:42, 14 March 2010 (UTC)

  Done Right has been granted. Good luck! - Andre Engels 21:51, 24 March 2010 (UTC)

Global editinterface for Beau

Status:    Done

I would like to request global editinterface rights for one day. I want to update gadgets for Polish projects, where I don't have sysop rights (pl.wikibooks, pl.wikiquote, pl.wikinews). Beau (talk) 08:44, 11 March 2010 (UTC)

These projects have a lot of admins, is not possible you make a request for the local admins (for admins update the gadgets for you)? ---- @lestaty discuţie 09:00, 11 March 2010 (UTC)
I can ask them, but it is more time consuming for me to explain what I want to be done, and for other sysops. I have chosen the faster way. This is not my first request - log. Beau (talk) 09:18, 11 March 2010 (UTC)
  Done Please ask for remove the flag... Regards ---- @lestaty discuţie 09:23, 11 March 2010 (UTC)
Thanks! You can remove me from the group. Beau (talk) 16:47, 11 March 2010 (UTC)
And removed. Thanks for your work. — Dferg (talk) 16:50, 11 March 2010 (UTC)
