Cross-wiki requests
Meta-Wiki requests
  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

  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 -->

Reasons, etc. --~~~~

For many accounts:

Abusive username. Estrellato (talk) 10:25, 30 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Inappropriate yes, but not offensive or lockhide level? EPIC (talk) 10:35, 30 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
It's someones real name with a slur, I would think lockhide would be appropiate no? Especially if it would show up on Google or things like that while searching for the person. Estrellato (talk) 09:40, 2 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
I'm going to mark this as not done at the time, also after checking with some colleagues. Generally usernames containing a real name are not lockhidable, except if they are combined with PII or libel. In this case it is just a real name with a Gen Alpha slang. It's likely rather the case of a joke account from a school kid, which can be locally handled at this time. EPIC (talk) 13:50, 4 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

Cross-wiki abuse. Spam / spambot.

The 1st and 5th user has activity overlaps at w:simple:Adama Joseph Adama and w:Draft:Adama Joseph Adama. Possible attempt to delay detection of w:simple:WP:ONESTRIKE. MathXplore (talk) 23:29, 30 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

There's no blocks anywhere though, and no CU confirmation AFAICS? I'll try getting a hold of a simplewiki CU to have a look. EPIC (talk) 23:34, 30 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
@EPIC: We now have CU-confirmation, please see w:simple:Special:Diff/9799752 for the results. MathXplore (talk) 00:48, 1 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
This confirmation is not as straight forward as it looks from the CU side. I think we are safe with the 1995 accounts, should we determine they meet criteria, but the other two (especially one stale) i'm concerned about from run own checking on enwiki. I am keep my steward hat off for this given I'm disputing with local results. -- Amanda (she/her) 11:53, 1 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
