[Foundation-l] Global rollback users

Hello, Stewards can now create and edit global groups[1]. Users assigned to these groups will have the groups' rights on all public Wikimedia wikis. For example, a user in the 'global rollback' group could use the 'rollback' feature on all Wikimedia wikis. However, stewards will not create or assign these groups without community consensus. I propose the creation of a global rollback group. This would be very useful for members of the small wiki monitoring team[2] and other users involved in multiple-wiki countervandalism. We will also need objective criteria for its assignment; I suggest elected administrator access on at least one public Wikimedia wiki, and evidence of activity in multiple-wiki countervandalism (like links to contributions on multiple wikis).
