This page hosts requests for global (un)blocks, (un)locks and hidings.

If you are here because you have been affected by a global block, please see Global blocks/FAQ for more information about global block and routes to appeal.

Note: (un)blocks apply to IP addresses or accounts; and (un)locks apply to global accounts.

Cross-wiki requests
Meta-Wiki requests

Requests for global (un)block

Please be sure to follow the instructions below:
Your request might be rejected if you don't follow the instructions.
Please also review Global blocking .
Global blocks don't affect Meta-Wiki, so if your IP address or account is blocked, you can still appeal here. IP addresses or accounts that cause disruption on Meta should be reported at Meta:Requests for help from a sysop or bureaucrat instead of here so that they can be blocked locally.
Please describe the kind of cross wiki abusive activity you see from the IP or account. Saying an IP or account is a long term abuser is not helpful, but saying "IP vandalizes at ban.wikipedia, no.wikipedia and vi.wikipedia" is. This is especially important for range blocks. If you do not provide enough details, your request might be declined.
Instructions for making a request

Before requesting, make sure that:

  1. You know the IP address(es) or accounts you wish to have globally blocked or unblocked.
  2. For blocks, the global blocking criteria are met.
  3. For unblocks, your request addresses the original reason for blocking the IP or account, if any.

To make a request for the address(es) or account(s) to be blocked or unblocked

Copy the template below to the bottom of this section and explain why the address(es) or account(s) should be blocked/unblocked.
=== Global block/unblock for [[Special:Contributions/Some IP address or account|Some IP address or account]] ===
{{Status}} <!-- Do not remove this template -->
* {{Luxotool|IP address/username}}
Description, evidence, diffs, etc. --~~~~
When requesting that your IP be unblocked, note that stewards need to know your IP address to even consider a request.
To find your IP, please visit https://www.whatismyip.com/
You are not required to disclose your IP in public - you may make requests privately to any steward on IRC or by email at: stewards@wikimedia.org

Long-term abuse: LeandroTelesRocha1983, also known among many other things as Professor Olavo. They're now doing weird cross-wiki image spam (I don't know whether it's worth listing/blocking the Commons accounts uploading the images they're using for that, such as Lula é Ladrão e Abortista ... or maybe they're just innocent parties). I traced them by following a link trail through this page history on Wikidata. If you feel safer globally blocking the /64 (2804:14c:5b74:99c5::/64), I'd be OK with that. --Graham87 (talk) 09:27, 19 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Requests for global (un)lock and (un)hiding

Be sure to follow the instructions below:
  • Your request might be rejected if it doesn't include the necessary information.
  • Warning! This page is publicly viewable. If the account name is grossly insulting or contains personal information please contact a steward privately in #wikimedia-stewardsconnect or email your request to the stewards VRT queue at stewards-oversight@wikimedia.org (direct wiki interface) but do not post it here. Thanks.
  • Warning! This is not the place to ask for locks based on your opinion that someone is disruptive. Global locks are used exclusively against vandalism and spam, not because of content disputes, not because you think that someone deserves to be globally blocked. In such cases, you should ask for local blocks at appropriate places.
  • If you are globally locked, you should appeal your lock to stewards-appeals@wikimedia.org.

Please describe abusive activity of an account before reporting them here. Since stewards are often not active at projects the reported accounts are, things that seem obvious to you may not be equally obvious to the reviewing steward.

Instructions for making a request

Before requesting that a global account be (un)locked, please be sure that:

  1. You have evidence of cross-wiki disruption from the account(s).
  2. You can show that it is not feasible to use local-only blocks or other measures like page protection to combat the disruption.
  3. You have considered making the request in #wikimedia-stewardsconnect, especially for account names which will be hidden, or for urgent requests.
To make a request for an account to be locked or unlocked
Copy one of the codes below to the bottom of this section and explain why the account(s) should be locked/unlocked.
=== Global lock/unlock for Foo ===
{{status}} <!-- do not remove this template -->
* {{LockHide|username}}
* {{LockHide|username|hidename=1}} <!-- if you do not want the name to be visible on this page -->

Unauthorized bot operating cross-wiki. Marks as "edit war" admin operations such as reversion of vandalisms. Already blocked locally on some wikis (e.g. de.wiki, it.wiki).--Superspritztell me 13:39, 17 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Since the bot belongs to a constructive user and is flagged on bnwiki, I think it might be better to leave it to local communities if they object to the bot operating without a flag, also since a lock would prevent the bot from editing bnwiki. EPIC (talk) 13:51, 17 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Nokib Sarkar আপনার বট শুধু বাংলা উইকিপিডিয়ায় অনুমোদিত। তাহলে অন্য উইকিতে কাজ করছে কেন? ~ Yahya (talkcontribs) 13:07, 18 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Yahya @EPIC I was testing on bot's own user-space only and experimenting with high volume data. But, the edit frequency is low to flood the recentchanges. I did not realize it is prohibited to experiment on user namepace of that bot. I am disabling it right now. Nokib Sarkar (talk) 15:39, 18 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
Also I have a question, in the almost every bot template, it appears to be allowed editing on the bot's or its operator's user namespace without having approval (for experimental purpose without flooding the recentchanges). So, I am wondering if I am missing any piece of the puzzle. Nokib Sarkar (talk) 15:43, 18 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Nokib Sarkar Every local project has its own policies and practices. Just because something is accepted on Enwiki doesn't mean another wiki will accept it as well. Do not edit projects where you are unfamiliar with the local policies. I am closing this as not done. ~ Yahya (talkcontribs) 08:55, 19 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
