- I'd like to try using Huggle. Twinkle seems quite nice but it certainly seems slower and clunkier to use. It's not been uncommon for me to find that a revert I was working was already completed by a Huggle user. Mordgier (talk) 15:58, 28 January 2010 (UTC)
- You've been here less than two weeks, have just 200 edits, your very first contributions use WP:UNDO [1] and here you are requesting rollback. Strikes me you are not unfamiliar with Wikipedia before this account. Comments from you would help make granting easier I feel. 86.130.4.4 (talk) 21:31, 28 January 2010 (UTC)

- I'm going to be doing a lot of travelling in the next few months, so I made this account for airport Wi-Fi, internet cafes, etc. I'd like to have it marked as confirmed and with the rollback feature, which is enabled on my main account. Thank you. Bradjamesbrown is travelling (Talk to my master) 08:11, 28 January 2010 (UTC)
- To save anyone having to trawl through the account creation logs, I confirm the above. Bradjamesbrown (talk) 08:12, 28 January 2010 (UTC)
- Not done The same reason you're not going to use your regular account while travelling is the same reason that advanced permissions cannot be granted to the temporary account. (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 12:32, 28 January 2010 (UTC)
- I take issue with this decision, and believe the right should be granted. Legit alternate accounts of rollbackers are usually granted such requests, regardless of activity. PeterSymonds (talk) 12:34, 28 January 2010 (UTC)
- Can you at least mark it as confirmed to get rid of the CAPTCHAs? I have to have someone read them for me when I encounter one. Bradjamesbrown (talk) 13:07, 28 January 2010 (UTC)
- Done. I added rollback too (hope you don't mind, Bwilkins) because it's an uncontroversial request. However, do let us know if you stop using the account, so we can remove the permissions if need be. Best, PeterSymonds (talk) 13:11, 28 January 2010 (UTC)

- To help revert vandalism. I'm a fairly new member (~1 month), but I'm a responsible Wikipedian that has been combating of vandalism and trying to help users understand what is and is not acceptable on Wikipedia by leaving messages on their Talk: pages. armoreno10 06:29, 28 January 2010 (UTC)

- To assist with reverting vandalism using Twinkle, also to allow me to use other anti-vandalism tools such as Huggle. MegaSloth (talk) 02:50, 28 January 2010 (UTC)
- Done. I see no problems so I've granted rollback. Please remember to rollback only in cases of clear vandalism. Valley2city‽ 03:33, 28 January 2010 (UTC)

- I copied pages and pasted them somewhere else i dint know you cant do that?? Mizak123 (talk) 21:25, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
- Short answer, you can copy and paste from one wikipedia article to another, but you should see Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia before you do that. That being said, we generally don't copy and paste entire sections like you did and instead link to articles using the [[brackets]]. I will give you a list of links to check out on your talk page. If you want to continue this discussion I suggest doing so on your talk page or my talkpage Meanwhile, for rollback please address the questions I raised below so we can review them. Thanks Valley2city‽ 19:24, 27 January 2010 (UTC)

- Been an editor and contributor since 2004/2005. Was inactive for a while due to personal issues but am back and plan to be active again. I enjoy watching IP edits and reverting blantent vandalism. Now that I am back though, it appears that a lot of my old tools are no longer compatible and am looking for another option. I feel I am a trustworthy user and will use this tool responsibly. Thanks! —akghetto talk 18:47, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
- Not done While we can always use another vigilant editor watching for vandalism, you've only done a small amount since returning, and you haven't issued warnings to the users/IPs. Get a little more experience with the tools you have (Twinkle, Popups, etc.) and reapply in a couple of weeks. Thanks. —DoRD (?) (talk) 19:33, 26 January 2010 (UTC)

- To make it slightly easier to revert vandalism. Santa Claus of the Future (talk) 20:16, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
- Not done While I applaud your edits, you've really only reverted two instances of vandalism in the past month, and they were just prior to filing this request - that's really just not enough to judge on. Spend some time fighting vandals and then reapply. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 20:22, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
- Mizak123 · (talk · contribs · deleted · wikichecker· count · pages created · logs · block log · lu · rfar · rfc · rfcu · ssp · spi · search an, ani, cn, an3) (assign permissions)
- For reverting vandalism. I was removed from rollback last time because of bad use of Huggle. Now I use Twinkle and it really helps me concentrate on what edits are vandalism and what isn't Mizak123 (talk) 23:26, 24 January 2010 (UTC)
- I appreciate your exuberance but I see a contradiction within your three requests for rollback. You write below [2] that you have always edited for years only anonymously ("i have used wikipedia for several years but not in a account and sometimes find inaccurate untrue information") but here you say "I was removed from rollback last time because of bad use of Huggle." Anonymous users cannot be granted rollback so I can only assume you previously edited under a separate account as this account you are using is less than a day old. In order to consider your application I need a clarification and would also like to know under what name you have previously edited. In order to grant rollback we need to ascertain your history of fighting vandalism. If you can, please respond here to my concerns. Thanks, Valley2city‽ 04:01, 25 January 2010 (UTC)

- I have been using wikipedia for several years and really want to edit pages i have already contributed to many pages and want to contribute to more pages as i find some of the infomation on some pages wrong or innacurate I have reverted several vandalism edits and the rollback feature will enable me to revert vandalism much faster because I will have access to Huggle, but with Twinkle I am facing problem because I have to look at the diffs separately before reverting, and it takes a long time to fight vandalism

- I fight alot of vandalism using Twinkle, and have a zero tolerance policy on vandals (all are warned, most straight onto level 2's). I do, however, understand that you mustn't bite the newcomers, and sometimes add verbal comments if the edit appears to be in good faith or such like. So far, I have only been involved in two disputes about my edits, and both have been resolved peacefully. I would like rollback rights so I could use Huggle and revert vandalism easier. Thanks!

- Long time editor with more than 7,000 edits. I keep almost 500 pages on my watchlist and do alot of reverting. username 1 (talk) 15:09, 22 January 2010 (UTC)
- Done. I see a good history of fighting vandalism and don't see any problems so I've gone and granted you rollback. Keep up the great work. Remember to only rollback clear instances of vandalism. Valley2city‽ 17:54, 22 January 2010 (UTC)

- Reason for requesting rollback Takid123 (talk) 04:10, 21 January 2010 (UTC) i would be exceptionally happy to help you fight against the people (me at first) who decided it was funny to desecrate the wonderful resources here
- Not done Thanks for offering to turn yourself around, but you need to have some other checkable edits before requesting rollback. Take some time to get a feel for the place, make some good edits here and there (I can try and help you through the process if you'd like), and then we can go from there. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 04:15, 21 January 2010 (UTC)

- I would like to aid wikipedias combat of spam by being a "rollbacker". I know what is and isn't spam, useless text, or innapropriate. Vader7666 (talk) 22:04, 20 January 2010 (UTC)
- Not done - thanks for expressing an interest in vandalism fighting. However, for now, consider using the undo feature (or even Twinkle) to revert vandalism and patrol the recent changes. When you've gained some more experience dealing with vandalism, say in three or four weeks, feel free to come back and re-request rollback. In the mean time, happy editing!

- Would like to rollback 19 January 2010 vandalism to Ethernet hub article Kvng (talk) 16:12, 19 January 2010 (UTC)
- Not done. Thanks for applying, I appreciate that you're being vigilant on on reverting vandalism to these pages, but you haven't issued warnings for people who have vandalized. I need to see that you know how to identify particular types of vandalism as well as how to properly warn vandals before I can grant rollback. Please see WP:VANDAL.

- Have used Twinkle for a long time. I am an active member of several Wikipedia projects that also include pages which are particularly susceptible to vandalism (schools; lists of notable residents; BLP; etc.) I'm not a 'patroller' per se, but I have over 1,000 article pages on my watchlist to which I have a permanent RSS feed. I am familiar with the levels and use of warnings and leaving rationale in edit summaries. Kudpung (talk) 04:42, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

- I believe personally that I would be able to revert vandalisim faster if granted use of the rollback feature. I understand the consequences of misbehaving, and know what would be a trigger to revoke by usage of the tools. I have a little bit of trouble with warnings, but I will try to learn. Buggie111 (talk) 22:31, 18 January 2010 (UTC)

- I hope that huggle/rollback permission would make my anti-vandalism contributions faster. Currently I am using MWT. Songrit (talk) 05:50, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
- Could you please explain your previous request for rollback as seen here? I also don't see any warnings on user talk pages of vandals after you reverted vandalism. Thanks, Valley2city‽ 06:25, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
- The previous request was made for research purposes. As I said there, I am doing research on vandalism detection and thus I want to survey on the current methods being used. Since, it was not granted, I have to evaluate it in some other way. I found that twinkle and MWT are doing fine but they are kind of slow. That is why I request the right again. Also I think reverting bad edit is a way to contribute to Wikipedia. I don't put the comments on talk page because they are mostly anonymous users. I think it is pointless to warn them. Songrit (talk) 06:41, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
- Not done. Even anonymous users need to be warned. Warning users is a way to track vandalism patterns and to take corrective action as necessary and most users who vandalize, whether registered or IPs, need to be warned. As Tiptoety indicated when you previously requested it, research isn't really a sufficient reason to grant rollback. However, reverting vandalism is. That being said, I appreciate your reverts of vandalism so far, but I need to ascertain that you can give proper warnings before I can grant the rollback bit. Seeing as I have not seen any sort of warning, I cannot grant rollback at this time. Valley2city‽ 07:07, 18 January 2010 (UTC)

- I want the rollback feature to make reverting the vandalism a lot more easier. I edit mainly the articles on video games and cartoon shows and I occasionally find vandalism on these page pages. I have been on here for over a year, so do you think that I could have the rollback feature? User:Thebigfan (talk) 16:55, 11 January 2010 (UTC)
- I got confused when I saw that your last edit was in May of last year but then I noticed that you've been editing both as User:Thebigfan and User:Thebigfan2. First of all I'm confused for which account you are requesting rollback. Also I'm curious why you decided to create a second account and linked it to the old account? Meanwhile, I only notice a handful of reversions of vandalism but no warnings on user pages nor reports to AIV. If someone vandalizes wikipedia, once you revert the edit, in the vast majority of cases you also need to put a templated warning on their talk page and I don't see any from you. With Rollback you need to know how to use warning templates and I have no way to determine you know how to use them. Also I like to see a potential rollbacker demonstrate reporting users who continue to break the rules past a final warning to AIV. So for now, Not done.

- I'm not wildy comfortable giving this out as an arbcom case will likely be filed following the thread at AN/I where you were involved for what seems to be edit warring over an extended period of time. Still, I admit to not having followed it nor having read it very closely, so if another sysop feels it would be appropriate go wild. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 18:52, 10 January 2010 (UTC)
- The accusations of me edit-warring are against situations where I held to 1RR, which was pointed out in the ANI. 1RR is my preferred use of undo. Other than BLP and blatant vandalism, I'll tag after 1RR, and have made the {{Linkspam}} template to use for such situations with disputed external links.
- I don't plan on using rollback for anything even remotely so controversial. Rather, mass-vandalism, mass-spamming, and cleanup situations where others only cleaned up a portion of the problems. --Ronz (talk) 19:37, 10 January 2010 (UTC)
- Not done Looking through your recent history, I don't see much evidence of major anti-vandalism work. Not only that, but most of the recent reverts you have been making pertain to only one editor, Tzahy (talk · contribs), who you seem to be having a dispute with.

- It's not a matter of time, it's a matter of edits. Your history shows little use of WP:UNDO (the only cases I see are you undoing your own edits) and virtually no use of edit summaries. To get rollback, you should:
- Actively fight vandalism with some regularity
- Use appropriate edit summaries when reverting (If it's an obvious vandalism revert, "rvv" would be acceptable, but otherwise you need to provide an explanation)
- Warn vandals and report them to WP:AIV if they continue vandalizing after a final warning
- WP:TWINKLE provides most of the functionality of Rollback without requiring the privileges and helps with all the tasks above. You might want to try it out. If you like it, you might not need the permissions. If you feel constrained by it after a while, you can reapply with some vandal fighting history under your belt. —ShadowRanger (talk|stalk) 22:45, 11 January 2010 (UTC)
