Meta:Requests for limited adminship/GeneralNotability

Not ending before 25 September 2020 22:48 (UTC)

Hello all, I'm GeneralNotability, an enwiki sysop. Lately, I have found myself increasingly active in the areas of cross-wiki spam and sockpuppetry and I would like to put my experience to use in Meta. I am asking for limited adminship to edit the global spam blacklist and work with global edit filters, and request that the permission be granted for six months as a trial period (if there are no issues, I would then make a new request to be granted the permissions indefinitely). My use for the spam blacklist is pretty straightforward, I plan to use it when I come across spam links that are being spammed cross-wiki. As for the edit filters, some cross-wiki LTAs have fairly specific names or topics they write about, I'd like to be able to create (log-only) edit filters to catch them early. I recognize that I'm still fairly new in terms of cross-wiki activity, but I think I both have a specific use for the tools and have shown through my activity elsewhere that I have the competence and experience to be trusted with them.
