Hello administrators and other Wikipedians,

I actually requested this permission recently, but was denied because I apparently had "no anti-vandalism work." I initially disagreed with the statement since I did have some anti-vandal work through reverting pending changes and new pages patrol, but I decided to make it more clear by doing more anti-vandalism work. Since then, I have warned dozens of users for vandalism (starting at level 1, but level 2 or 3 if the issue is serious). Also, I have made more than 200 undeleted edits using STiki (although I have no rollback permission yet, I was granted the right to use by the developer) as you can tell by using xtools. This proves my competency with anti-vandalism tools. However, I also want to use tools like Huggle, which requires this permission. I strongly believe that I can be trusted with this permission, but if your thoughts are different, please leave me a message. Thank you and happy editing!

 Automated comment This user has had 1 request for rollback declined in the past 90 days ([1]). — MusikBot ^talk 06:41, 5 February 2016 (UTC)

Non-admin comment This experienced young editor has enough mainspace edits and counter-vandalism work in order to be granted rollback.. The fact that it has been less than 90 days since he asked previously should not be any reason to decline this request. Ches (talk) 17:02, 6 February 2016 (UTC)

If it's unclear, there is no requirement that a user wait 90 days before requesting again. The bot just reports it so the responding admin will know why the previous request was declined, to see if issues brought up then have been addressed — MusikAnimal ^talk 19:53, 6 February 2016 (UTC)

Indeed, thank you for clarifying that. Ches (talk) 20:07, 6 February 2016 (UTC)

Hi William, could you change the color of your signature to a darker shade? It's difficult to read. — Earwig ^talk 00:54, 7 February 2016 (UTC)

@The Earwig: Okay, I have changed the colors a little. Is it fine now? Also, can you please either accept or decline (preferably accept :)) my request? Thank you! William2001^(talk) 01:47, 7 February 2016 (UTC)

William, I can read that so it should be OK. :) Ches (talk) 10:16, 7 February 2016 (UTC)

Ches, okay, thank you for confirming that. :) William2001^(talk) 20:01, 7 February 2016 (UTC)

Okay, now I have more than 150 undeleted STiki edits. Although edit counts do not mean anything (quality over quantity), this clearly shows my competence as an anti-vandalism editor. Thank you. William2001^(talk) 20:20, 7 February 2016 (UTC)

I'm going to defer to another admin here. Katie^talk 22:49, 7 February 2016 (UTC)

204 STiki edits, but is there any admin who is willing to look at my request? At least 3 admins did so far (probably more), but I don't see any decisions being made. I understand that rollback permission should not be given out easily, and I am not asking an admin to quickly accept my request. I'm just worried that I am doing something wrong right now since my request is taking an unusually long time. But please, I am not pressuring you. Take your time.

I have was rejecting on Wikipedia vandalism, create articles, editing articles, corrections articles, etc., notify the administrator what woes. So please feel free to give me those rights, so that I can use Huggle because this is simpler. Thank you.--^.^ Lukaslt13 --Talk ^.^ 14:05, 6 February 2016 (UTC)Lukaslt13

• Non-admin comment - Lukas, I am seeing a lot of edits you have made where you warn an IP user, but you do not actually revert their edits. That is definitely concerning. For example, [2] and here where you warn a user that was already warned by cluebot. You should be careful to only warn a user when appropriate. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Allthefoxes (talk • contribs) 16:33, 6 February 2016 (UTC)

But I always rejecting vandalism, so I think, that I can observe vandalism and in Huggle. What do you think? I have some places intermingled because clicked edit, and clicked save rather ClueBot has already been done, when I edited. So here is a trifle.--^.^ Lukaslt13 --Talk ^.^ 16:52, 7 February 2016 (UTC)Lukaslt13

On that page, where you mark where a lot of the blue, I wanted to write a warning through VizualEditor, ugh, I wanted to immediately warned not to write {{subst:Uw-vandalism}}.--^.^ Lukaslt13 --Talk ^.^ 16:55, 7 February 2016 (UTC)Lukaslt13

I'll let another admin decide on action here, but I really worry about your English abilities. Being able to communicate with others is an important part of vandalism work; yes, we utilize many templates, but verbalizing explanations is an important aspect as well. only (talk) 20:24, 7 February 2016 (UTC)

 Not done Your English simply isn't good enough to communicate with editors about vandalism. Depending on VE to warn editors isn't sufficient. Please improve your English skills before doing counter-vandalism work. Katie^talk 22:46, 7 February 2016 (UTC)

What is meant by an anti-vandalism? It's good, then if you want it, I'll be vandal. I asked for some rollback rights, and here say, be vandal... As for the English, after all, I am studying it while sitting here, Argue with their parents, simply because Wikipedia. 1 I get on Wikipedia, I'm here better than the English lesson, simple past, past participle, past continuous, and I been using books, so I can with YOU finding a common ground. And you do not appreciate my efforts, small, that have created a lot of articles that made 819 edits. Please empathy. This is not an insult, and no eye robbery. I just said to my opinion. And, behold, why all pull on for language? Respect others, and that you respect. One for all and all for one. :)--^.^ Lukaslt13 --Talk ^.^ 09:04, 8 February 2016 (UTC)Lukaslt13

Lukaslt13, please don't take offence to this, but you do not have the WP:COMPETENCE required to edit the English Wikipedia, let alone use rollback. I highly recommend that you edit the Wikipedia in your strongest language. Thanks, --Ches (talk) 13:44, 8 February 2016 (UTC)

I not can edit Lithuania Wikipedia, because I blocked for 2018 years, april 14. I will repeat that I develop English language.--Wikipedia great! - Lukaslt13 My talk - Yes? - Yes 14:14, 8 February 2016 (UTC)Lukaslt13

You've been blocked? Makes the administrator's decision to not grant you rollback justifiable then, in my opinion. Why should anybody support your request if you don't have the competence to edit the English Wikipedia, and you've been blocked on the WP in your language? Ches (talk) 19:50, 8 February 2016 (UTC)

 Administrator note Let's close this up please for the reasons already given by KrakatoaKatie this is  Not done and that decision will not change this time around. NJA (t/c) 08:15, 9 February 2016 (UTC)

Ane? Yes, I am responsible for you, and insult me finish, I ended up also have human rights, so please at least constructively communicate instead: You blocked? It has no competence, plus you are blocked their language wikipedia I would write no IP addresses: You, yes you stop vandalise would do as deleted, :)

Think about whether you are not insulting the other person, or hurt him. Here is my opinion.--Music land - Lukaslt13 Come in my talk! 13:49, 9 February 2016 (UTC)Lukaslt13

I have been more engrossed in combating vandalism during the past couple months. Rollback rights may increase my efficacy in this manner, but I am unsure. Fdssdf (talk) 03:07, 8 February 2016 (UTC)

I have experience of article that include incorrect information and that got me lot of trouble of have incorrect information. So I begun to clean thing and correct every vandalism in Wikipedia as soon as I can. Having Rollback Right would boost my work. Thank you all! Cheers Price Zero (talk) 14:44, 8 February 2016 (UTC)

I would like to be able to use the feature to combat vandalism. I believe I've battled enough vandalism using Twinkle as well as hand-bombing.   Aloha27  talk  19:10, 8 February 2016 (UTC)

I have done quite a bit of countervandalism work during the past three months, including, but not limited to, using STiki and Page Curation. I recently found that without Rollback, it is quite difficult to massively remove edits made by an individual user on one page, increasing my workload. Also, Rollback would enable WP:HG access for me and might therefore help me in the process of removing vandalism abovementioned.

Thank you. Ueutyi (talk) 06:43, 9 February 2016 (UTC)
