Hello. I contribute trwiki (sysop, CU), wikidata and meta (GR). Also I am using SWViewer for monitoring small wikis and reverting vandalism. Especially I need this flag for small wikis which I did not get any confirmed rights. Sometimes I get trouble. Thanks for your comments. Vincent Vega ^msg? 12:24, 27 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Can't support this time. I have checked some wikis randomly. Most of your edits are page moves during renaming users. —Yahya (talk • contribs.) 16:27, 27 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Of course it is Yahya I am an active renamer. The problem is when I try to use SWViewer I can not revert vandalism. So that times I needed this flag, especially on small wikis. I am using it when I available not always. If you say these edits are not too much, I can understand. Vincent Vega ^msg? 17:18, 27 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You don't need rollback permission for using SWViewer. Stang 18:40, 27 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Yes I know, because I have used tool for a bit more than 1 year. But in some wikis especially small ones I can not revert edits via SWViewer. Nowadays these errors' frequency rised, that's why I am here. My intention is avoiding abuse filter preventation or CAPTCHA validation. Vincent Vega ^msg? 18:48, 27 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Trapped by AF could be a valid reason, and thanks for your clarification here. Stang 18:52, 27 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome and thanks for your assistance/comment @Stang:. I am explaning myself more clearly with your opinion. Vincent Vega ^msg? 19:01, 27 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Strong oppose per yahya. → αѵίɾαʍ7 ([ʆεt'ς tαʆƘ🇮🇳])← 16:53, 27 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
•  Weak support Although the user definitely has limited cross-wiki experience in regard to fighting vandalism, all such edits were okay and I generally believe that the user is trusted enough for this rights--reNVoy (user talk) 19:30, 27 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
•  Support – User already holds several advanced permissions, which shows they can be trusted. –FlyingAce^✈hello 03:49, 28 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  Hmm. Vincent Vega doesn't seem to be doing much cross-wiki patrol after that, even though they was told their cross-wiki experience was lacking. Is this permission useful for small wikis? Syunsyunminmin 🗨️talk 08:01, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  Yes @Syunsyunminmin:. This permission is useful for all Wikimedia wikis not only small ones. This flag normally contains autoconfirmed, skipcaptcha, editsemiprotected, move and movestable rights. In fact, usually I need autoconfirmed, skipcaptcha and rollback rights on small wikis. Also autoreviewrestore, autopatrol and patrolmarks rights will be useful for me. I am familiar these ones at my main wiki, I do not think I will have a problem about vandalism. At least "why local small wiki users spend time for checking when I revert a vandalism edit?" In my opinion this flag will be useful for users and also small wikis if GR doesn't misuse.

  Actually after my request I do not want to exaggerate my cross wiki action while this period. If I would this it will be insincere behavior. I am on my routine. Vincent Vega ^msg? 08:20, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  Furthermore, I couldn't find any records of what you reported to GSR, did you know this page existed? Syunsyunminmin 🗨️talk 08:35, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  Yes I know this page,I am familiar to Meta. I am using IRC Stewards channel if I needed. Actually I requested blocks twice; one time vandal has been blocked, one time we waited for a delayed rollback. Usually vandals stopping after my edit I do not need so much. Vincent Vega ^msg? 08:58, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  Thank you for your answer. Hmm. Given that their a Sysop on another wiki, I am on the weak support side, but I'll keep my upvote for now. Syunsyunminmin 🗨️talk 09:08, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  I am respectful for your comment. Regards! Vincent Vega ^msg? 09:09, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

•  Support Trusted and he can help in Turkic-language projects.--Turkmen ^talk 19:49, 29 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
•  Oppose per Yahya. You don't need GR to revert vandalism. --SHB2000 (talk | contribs) 03:18, 30 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  I know I do not need GR for this, however I need a prevention for AF and CAPTCHA. If there is another way for this prevention I will do that. Vincent Vega ^msg? 08:24, 30 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  @Vincent Vega Non-voting comment You can use a tool like User:Krinkle/Tools/Global SUL to create local accounts at all public Wikimedia wikis. At the majority of wikis, users who registered more than 4 days ago are considered autoconfirmed (which exempts you from many AFs and from CAPTCHA as well). By using Global SUL tool, you would become autoconfirmed at most wikis after 4 days. Of course, GR's still helpful regardless, but this might be helpful if your request does not pass. Sincerely, Martin Urbanec (talk) 14:29, 30 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  Thank you so much @Martin Urbanec:. If I would fail for this request because of unsufficient cross wiki activity, I will try this tool ASAP. Vincent Vega ^msg? 18:40, 30 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

•  Oppose for now. Cross wiki activity (reverts and similar things) is a little bit low. I would love to see more activity in this area before getting the role. —MdsShakil (talk) 07:56, 30 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I'm requesting global rollback permission, as that would help me when I'm reverting vandalism on small wikis. I have been monitoring small wikis with SWViewer since October 2021, having made almost 1300 undos with SWViewer and many more with other methods. I'm active rollbacker on fiwiki, so I have experience with the rollback tool. --Brewster239 (T·C·CA) 09:33, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This is a request on behalf of the user concerned. This user want to add interwiki links to Wikidata but IP is globally blocked (as an open proxy). The user can not edit Meta-Wiki either.
