Hi there. I'm submitting this request for the GS flag to help the current team fight spam, vandals, and LTAs, especially in small wikis. I'm a global rollbacker, a bureaucrat/sysop on it.wiki and here on meta.wiki, and I have helped as a steward for ten years between 2007 and 2016, so I've gained some confidence with the admin tools, and I promise to act appropriately if needed. GS will of course be a new experience to me, but I am willing to learn, and I will follow other fellows' advice, especially in the very first period, if you will trust me for this role. Thank you. --M/ (talk) 16:35, 12 October 2024 (UTC)

- Neutral do not get me wrong, I am very happy to see former stewards come back to the activity, however, GS flag is usually given out when there are clear signs of recent xwiki activity and necessity for usage and not as a "learning tool". Unfortunately, you have very limited cross-wiki activity and I hope that you will raise it.--reNVoy (user talk) 11:41, 19 October 2024 (UTC)

Hello! I'm an administrator on kowiki. Currently, there is only one user managing renaming requests on kowiki. I am requesting this permission to help with renaming requests related to the Korean language as a Korean speaker. There have also been comments regarding the issue of delayed local request processing, and I would like to help address this. I am also familiar with the relevant policies.

Requests for global IP block exemption
edit
| Please be sure to follow the instructions below:
- Global user: Faldi00 (edits (alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)
Hello
Currently, I am living in Russia. As you know, Russia has blocked several websites since 2022. These restrictions cause me to often use VPN to access blocked websites. Unfortunately, users cannot either editing or creating a page on Wikipedia with VPN. Although Wikipedia has not been blocked yet, however several important websites that can support me during the editing or creation of an article are blocked such as BBC.com, Archive.org, Rfel.org and others. Apart from that, there are several news that stated Russia wanted to block Wikipedia, although it has not materialized yet. Hence, I am requesting Global IP block exempt so that I can edit or create an article on Wikipedia without having turning off the VPN. Faldi00 (talk) 07:22, 11 September 2024 (UTC)
- Can you please file a UTRS appeal? There are questions we need to ask that are better done not visible to everyone. -- Amanda (she/her) 16:06, 29 September 2024 (UTC)
- I just read your message so apologize for late reply. Yes, I have made a UTRS appeal. Faldi00 (talk) 06:34, 10 October 2024 (UTC)
Global IP block exempt for Player8635
edit- Global user: player8635 (edits (alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)
I was blocked when logging into Wikimedia Commons
I hope I can log in to upload some resources (such as photos of my school) for use in the wiki, and I also hope to log in to participate in editing activities, but I only have access to the Chinese wiki now, and I hope to get a global IP exemption --Player8635 (talk) 14:32, 3 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Player8635, have you tried local (commons) IP block exempt? As far as I can understand you, you only want to edit the chinese wikipedia and commons. More information: Commons:IP block exemption. TenWhile6 15:19, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
- I did apply for a local IP exemption, but I was blocked by Wikimedia Commons when I was editing a realm, and I can't edit tasks like: "Add an image to an article without an illustration

I travel back and forth between China and Europe. If I am in China, I would like to be able to edit Wikipedia in English and Italian in time. Some content and images related to Chinese cities and rural areas are quite outdated. I will update them within China. I appreciate your consideration of my request to continue contributing to the Wiki community, thanks, --Iuliusnanus (talk) 16:48, 16 October 2024 (UTC)
Global IP Block Exempt for MarkRosenbaum
edit- Global user: MarkRosenbaum (edits (alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)
Per UTRS #95471 --DeltaQuadBot (talk) 13:00, 23 October 2024 (UTC)
- @MarkRosenbaum the IP range you are operating on is globally blocked, but also locally blocked at enwiki. A global IP block exemption only helps agains global blocks, while local exemptions override both local and global blocks (see IP block exempt). If you want to edit at enwiki (which seems to be your main wiki) you will need to ask for a local exemption -> en:WP:IPBE, a global exemption won't help you. Johannnes89 (talk) 10:13, 24 October 2024 (UTC)
- Hi @[[User:Johannnes89|Johannnes89],
- I was actually looking to edit testwiki when I hit the block, I believe the testwiki block is controlled by the global block as opposed to a local block but I could be wrong. MarkRosenbaum (talk) 11:57, 24 October 2024 (UTC)
- I have attempted to also submit an enwiki exemption request but I get the message "It has been detected that you or someone else may be trying to spam our system with appeals. Please wait until your previous appeal is closed" MarkRosenbaum (talk) 12:26, 24 October 2024 (UTC)

I would like to activate 2FA for my account. I use TOTP-based or U2F/FIDO2-based 2FA whenever the option is available for all my online accounts (or even passkeys on USB security keys). I always save 2FA recovery codes in my password manager. I have also read the 2FA help article. Thank you, --TaiVLam (talk) 21:26, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
