If your request has to do with a global issue (such as IP blocking, account locking, etc.), please visit Steward requests/Global. If your request has to do with global permissions (either the removal of or addition of), you've come to the right place!

Most of my antivandalism experience comes from Wikimedia. I don't have global rollback here yet, but I'm requesting global sysop in order to deal with the flood of spam the wiki receives in the hours from 04:00:00 to about 09:00:00 UTC, when no other global sysops appear to be active. I am well-aware of the policies regarding global sysops however: global sysops may not action in lieu of local administrators unless the local community explicitly requests it. Usually it is not reverts I see needing to be done, but rather blocks and deletions of spambots and spam (respectively).--Jasper Deng (talk) 19:58, 2 November 2014 (GMT)

• Support - While I have to notice that Jasper's activity is low (I don't count edits on ircwiki as they are not related to "general Orain things"), I guess we could use him. Global Sysop TBloemink looks inactive, and so far only Revi and me are actually dealing with the massive spam attacks we have. We can use a third spam fighter, so I support this request. (Also, global rollback is already included in this request.) Southparkfan (talk) 15:03, 3 November 2014 (GMT)

The main reason I would appreciate your response is that I can help deal with spam; Arcane has already given me admin rights on MediaWiki Testers Wiki to fight off the spam that comes to that wiki; I could simply delete spam pages and block the spammer users as appropriate. I do that on not only Orain, but some other websites (such as EditThis.info), the trouble being that some of these wikis are too inactive so I can't get sysop attention. I have to remember to not act on a local wiki unless it is requested as such by the local community. (Note: If Arcane has asked me to fight spam on the wiki, is that a legit request, or does that mean I have to stop my spam-fighting activity on MWT just because they haven't said they need global sysop attention?) Thank you for your attention! Tau Ceti (talk) 22:09, 14 January 2015 (GMT)

Done - use the tools wisely. Dusti^{*Let's talk!*} 04:58, 23 January 2015 (GMT)

Status:    Done

Hi everyone. This is the first time that I've nominated someone for global rights. Cyberpower678 has been around Orain for quite some time and while he's mainly been a helper here and there, he's maintained an edit counter on behalf of Orain and has read access to our DB's for that bot. I'm nominating him for global sysop access to help the other global sysops keep up with the spam issues that we've been having. I see no reason to not trust him any further than we already trust him, and I think that he'd be a great asset to the global sysop group. Dusti^{*Let's talk!*} 20:28, 27 January 2015 (GMT)

I graciously accept.—cyberpower ^Chat_Offline 20:30, 27 January 2015 (GMT)

I already have the technical ability to do everything the steward flag offers me see here, and have also had the permissions onwiki to do these in the past and have made good use of them.. (see my global contribs) ·addshore· ^{talk to me!} 11:57, 6 February 2015 (GMT)
