 Done, done some good work, keep up the fight and make sure you've read the policies (will post them on your talk page as well) James (T C) 11:16, 8 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I would like to use huggle to help revert vandalism. Thank you. seahorseruler |Talk Yoshi! 00:10, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
 Done. you've obviously done some good work with Twinkle. Keep it up. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 00:20, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I've been active in vandalism correction for a while, but up to now haven't seen any real need for rollback (particularly since Twinkle is available and easy to use). However, I think I'd find it useful now since I'm working on cleaning up after the latest 5000+ database lag event. —RP88 23:01, 6 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
 Done your reverts with Twinkle look good to me and I need a hand clearing up the mess from the database lag anyway ;). HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 23:19, 6 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I would like to use rollback to get rid of vandalism faster because with the pages I edit vandalism happens a lot and I don't want to have to go through things like undoing the vandalism because sometimes the vandalism is unable to be undone after say an edit conflict an editor may edit a page unknowing of the vandalsim. After this it's very tideous sometimes to re-edit the page to where the page was before vandalism happened. Curtis23's Usalions 22:33, 5 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done. Sorry, but in your last 250 contribs, which go back roughly a month, I see 2, maybe 3 edits that could have been vandalism reversion which is not sufficient for me to be entirely comfortable granting you rollback. Sorry. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 22:47, 5 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I'd like to say it's actually a lot more then that it is just not labeled as vandalism but there actually is a lot more vandalism revisions than 2 or 3 in my last 250 edits. Will you take another look?--Curtis23's Usalions 22:53, 5 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Actually I'd look at all my edits. You'd see a lot more more vandalism rversions.--Curtis23's Usalions 22:56, 5 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I took another look and examined a few diffs where you've used the "undo" button, but I don't see anything that would be blatant enough vandalism for you to use rollback. Your contributions appear to be very good, but I don't see a need for rollback- it's worth noting that it's a tool given to editors who frequently revert vandalism rather than an advanced status. You might also like to Twinkle, which is a very useful script both for reverting and issuing warnings. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 23:19, 5 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I do try to revert vandalism any time that I can so that's why I thought that I could use rollback to make these reverts faster. Also I'm trying Twinkle but it doesn't work for me.--Curtis23's Usalions 23:23, 5 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

 Done I just received rollback rights from User:Aqwis.--Curtis23's Usalions 21:35, 6 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

If I did do something wrong I'm sorry you can take away my rollback rights but I have started using Twinkle and have been using a plethora of it I think I'd like you to take one more look at my contributions.--Curtis23's Usalions 23:22, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
