Global editinterface for Ricordisamoa
- Global user: Ricordisamoa (edits (alt) • CA • global groups • crossactivity • verify 2FA)
I am a sysop on Wikidata, where I have been mantaining several gadgets for months. I am fairly good at JavaScript, CSS, template syntax and Lua. I think I could help wikis with few 'technically competent' administrators - mainly the Italian versions of Wikivoyage and Wikisource, but also Wiktionary, Wikiquote, etc., and other language versions as well. I read the (proposed) policy, and of course I will not do any controversial edit, but will ask the community before, except in case of very high security issues.
Moreover, I'm a filemover on Commons, and with this right I could replace renamed files in protected pages too. --Ricordisamoa 15:49, 12 December 2013 (UTC)
- Oppose. It's not clear to me what changes would be done, whether globally at all and why admins in the few projects you mention couldn't simply be advised by you how to edit css/js pages in the desired way. Also I think using this for changing renamed files is out of scope. --MF-W 16:52, 12 December 2013 (UTC)
- I agree with MF-W here. Especially the absence of any policy for this right makes it a big deal (lacking legitimacy) and unless an accurate rationale is provided this flag shouldn't be assigned. Vogone talk 17:22, 12 December 2013 (UTC)
Oppose The issues with his failing to remove his flooder right against policy numerous times on Wikidata [1] do not inspire confidence in me for this right. --Rschen7754 18:56, 12 December 2013 (UTC)
- So, because he forgot to remove a flag from his account on two (?) occasions, he can't be trusted with any unrelated tools? Seems a little unrelated to me, especially since there is no global flooder flag or relation between that and GEI. Ajraddatz (Talk) 19:08, 12 December 2013 (UTC)
- Well, it shows that he wasn't careful, in my opinion, especially after the first time. --Rschen7754 19:12, 12 December 2013 (UTC)
- The scope of the GEI is to edit the mediawiki pages - he's done that quite a bit on Wikidata. If he was careless in that area, there would probably be lots of examples of that as well. Ajraddatz (Talk) 19:28, 12 December 2013 (UTC)
- @Rschen7754: since then, I set up my mass-deletion script to automatically remove the flood flag when finished. --Ricordisamoa 19:16, 17 December 2013 (UTC)

- Oppose, since the request has no clear rational for the use of the tools. I infer you would help fix gadgets? If a more clear rational could be provided I'll reconsider. Ajraddatz (Talk) 19:08, 12 December 2013 (UTC)
Oppose per above. Wikidata adminship is not a qualification for this right.--Jasper Deng (talk) 19:47, 12 December 2013 (UTC)
Thank you all for the quick replies. I do not share Rschen7754's objection, nor Jasper Deng's. However, MF-Warburg, Vogone and Ajraddatz remind that our provisional policy requires a stricter rationale than mine. And since I planned to use the right for almost every kind of non-controversial edit the communities request - and no local administrator is able to perform flawlessly in short time - I am near to withdrawing. But I would rather wait for someone other's opinion. --Ricordisamoa 05:37, 13 December 2013 (UTC)
- I would think that if you offered your services to these communities, either language specific, or to one of the broader sister projects, eg. Wikisource, and they accepted your offer, that would constitute a need, though there would be the obvious need to keep yourself within your set boundaries. — billinghurst sDrewth 11:26, 13 December 2013 (UTC)

Global exemption to CAPTCHA for for Sven Manguard

- Discussion: I am a Commons admin, and I often remove images from articles right before or right after I delete the images. I know that there is a bot that (supposedly) does this, but I've often found that new users tend to break things when adding images, and doing it manually allows me to fix issues as I go. This is a good example of what I'm taking about; the user added in a new image, and in the process broke the infobox. When I removed the image, I fixed the infobox. Happy happy. Except that it made me do a Captcha. I find myself doing a rather large number of Captchas in this line of work, and am not particularly good at them, so I'd love to be able to skip over them.
