Hi there stewards! I would want to be a global rollbacker so as to fight vandalism on Orain Wikis. I have been fighting vandalism in WMF and Wikia wikis. I believe I would do well with global rollback here. I know I only have 44 global edits. I'll try to become active here. Thanks!

{{sr-request

Since I like things to be done by consensus (most of the time, when necessary of course), I am making probably the first consensus based 'Steward recommendation' which is Shanmugamp7. Those who actually look at Meta RC will see I have now promoted Shan to admin on two wikis for sysops related tasks which are not controversial (the allthetropeswiki one went through local admins, I removed it once they finished). Since I feel they will make great use of the tools, benefiting Orain and we act on consensus, I am asking the community to trust them with the right. For information; they are most active on Wikimedia where they hold sysop on two projects as well as global rollback and global sysop permissions.

Hello!

Hi guys. I'm requesting global sysop access now. The last time, I see a mass attack of spam at multiple wikis. On Meta I can delete this (as a local sysop), but not on other wikis as I do not have sysop access there. At the moment, I can't do much more than only nominating spam. When I see Agent Isai's request above, and somewhere he is right, but he's not getting much support because of activity, not long a member of Orain yet, bad communication, no knowledge of Orain's processes, and more. But performing deletions, blocks, and whatever, is not the only reason I'm requesting this: I am known as a wiki creator here on Meta, and I'll need GS also in my line as Wiki Creator. I am checking wikis for inactivity (and lock these), and I must say that I need to work on this project again (and I really promise I will do), but I can't create/edit the sitenotices on those wikis. Closing wikis without leaving a sitenotice why it is closed, info about the adoption process, and related things, is probably not a good thing.
 
If I get GS, I can do all the needed things when doing my wiki creator work + do other general stuff on request. Please note that this is a general permissions request, and that I will use the rights for things outside my wiki creator or spam-deletion role but in the role as a Global Sysop (this can include blocks, RevDel and more - I want to make a notice of this so I didn't confuse you). I promise that I won't use the tools outside of situations where the tools are meant for, unless I got the permission of a local sysop to do so. I'm a proud member of Orain, and I really hope you trust me with these tools. If you have any questions, comments, other notes, you can leave them below. [[User:Southparkfan|Southparkfan]] ([[User talk:Southparkfan|talk]]) 19:46, 25 September 2014 (BST)
 
*You understand that Global Sysops are not considered local sysops, and that the global tools should only be used when absolutely necessary (spam attacks, no local sysops, etc.) correct? <font face="MV Boli">[[User:Dusti|'''<font color="#ff0000">D</font><font color="#ff6600">u</font><font color="#009900">s</font><font color="#0000ff">t</font><font color="#6600cc">i</font>''']][[User talk:Dusti|<sup>*Let's talk!*</sup>]]</font> 01:23, 26 September 2014 (BST)

Reasons for me to block/delete are spam (sure), <s>'''perhaps''' obvious vandalism ("vandalism" (but in other kinds) is tolerated on testwiki, and probably a few others. That is a reason to better ignore that, as it only can cause problems with the community.), </s>and if there is a request from a local sysop which asks me to do something, and gives the permission to do that, I'll be happy to help out there.

*{{comment|Question}} - Could you elaborate a little bit more on why you need GS to assist in your wikicreator duties? As far as I know, and it may have changed since I've been inactive-ish, but Wikicreators aren't actually responsible for handling locking wikis or anything else besides the actual creation of a wiki. I'm not opposed to them helping out with this in the slightest, but I'm not sure what the GS bits will actually do for your true wikicreator role. I would also like to make sure, along the lines of Dusti's question, that you understand that GS permissions are only to be used in an emergency in which no local sysop is available to act? That does not include handling any routine local requests through the appropriate local venue, routine deletions or blocks, et cetera. -- <font color="blue"><b>[[User:Joe G|Joe&nbsp;G.]]</b></font> ([[User_talk:Joe G|Talk]]) 03:50, 26 September 2014 (BST)
*:Wikicreators have the ability to lock wikis and I encourage them to because I'm not doing it and no one else seems interested in actively doing it. The policy is when locking; create MediaWiki:Sitenotice, which SPF is the only wikicreator who is not able to as Revi is a GS. [[User:John|John]] ([[User talk:John|talk]]) 07:55, 26 September 2014 (BST)
*::Wikicreator: There is no requirement to monitor the activity of wikis, but I've been asked to get through a list of wikis, like you did in 2013. In fact, I've closed a few, leaving the known notices on the Main Page (which sometimes is editprotected). There's no global editinterface (if there's one, that would be also okay for me), so therefore GS seems the only option. GS: see above.
