Rollback (add request)


User:TheSaxons

I am a user dates back from August 2010, but not too bad for me, but I have done editing on Wikipedia since February 2010 (121.1.55.87). I am a fresh graduate here on Wiki, but I've packed a lot of experience here. I've done a lot of editing here. I love Wiki, and I am willing to use this feature, not because I am lazy, but because I want to contribute to Wikipedia in a single click.

 Done. Rollback is generally granted to editors who have some experience with anti-vandalism, but I personally don't see it as a big deal. Make sure you're familiar with what is and isn't vandalism, and remember that rollback is intended for reverting obvious vandalism.

Oh, thanks a lot. I'll use it more efficiently.

Yes, sure I will use this tool--sahim (talk) 07:06, 25 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done, for the moment. If you still want rollback later, ask again after getting some experience with Twinkle. Feezo (send a signal | watch the sky) 07:43, 25 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
ah! ok, I have not problem! thank you Feezo --sahim (talk) 10:11, 25 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

User:Tad Lincoln

I've been on Wikipedia for a few years, and I try to revert vandalism whenever I see it, as well as sometime patrolling new pages. I think Rollback would help me in this task. Tad Lincoln (talk) 11:19, 25 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

User:Mojoworker

I've been using WP:Twinkle for rollback-like functionality to revert vandalism for quite some time. I've also been using wpcvn, but I'd like to try WP:IGLOO and for that it looks like I need rollback permission. Thanks Mojoworker (talk) 21:08, 26 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

User:Doomgaze

I have many association football articles on my watchlist and these just seem to be a magnet for vandalism. I believe use of the rollback feature would aid me in keeping these BLP articles up to scratch. doomgaze (talk) 00:03, 27 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

 Done. Enjoy, but please remember that rollback is only for blatant vandalism. Salvio Let's talk about it! 00:21, 28 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Reason for requesting rollback

There was recent addition of non-notable and unsolicited information on my college wiki page. As there were couple of edits from the same IP address, undo didn't work for me and the changes had to be removed manually. Though such cases are not vandalism (I think), I believe rollback will still be useful. So please grant me rollback rights.

I am a reviewer but as the page (and another page related to my college and susceptible to misuse) doesn't come under PC protection, reviewer rights are of no apparent use here.Mittgaurav (talk) 09:08, 28 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

 Done. I've granted this request, but keep in mind that rollback is only to be used in conjunction with the guidelines; in particular, it would not be appropriate to undo the edits on PEC University of Technology, since they are not obvious vandalism.

User:Crisco 1492

I have been an editor for nearly six years and have over 1700 edits. I am currently a reviewer and recently have started using the User:Lupin/Recent IP edits tool to combat vandalism. I wish to be able to rollback so that I can combat vandalism more efficiently. Crisco 1492 (talk) 09:46, 28 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
