Rollback (add request)


User:Levonscott

I have asked once before and been denied because I had only done 4 edits in the article namespace, but I am back with more experience under my belt this time! Levonscott User talk:Levonscott User:Levonscott 04:59, 13 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Excellent, you now have 7 edits to articles. That's a noticeable improvement, an addition of 75% your previous value! With hard work, I can assure you that you will gain the rollback button. Good luck, --Σ talkcontribs 05:09, 13 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
☒N Not done and not likely to be done Please contribute to some articles and revert vandalism before re-requesting. Thank you. Reaper Eternal (talk) 17:13, 13 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I'm in agreement with the decision to reject the request; but I believe the replies we've given might just be perhaps too harsh... Wifione Message 03:06, 14 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I have reverted many edits from IP user's in the past. Currently I have undone quite alot of the edits on the Canada's Got Talent and Canada's Got Talent (season 1) article as a result in Original Research or simply vandalizam. By receiving the role back tool, I will be able to undo any Original Research or vandalizam very quickly. This tool will also help me revert edits on other articles as well. Thank-you!

 Not done. You have little to no recent experience fighting real vandalism here on Wikipedia. If you want the rollback tool, show us that you need it! Go to Special:RecentChanges and make 50 or so vandalism reverts, either with the undo function, or the userscript, Twinkle. Once you have done that, come back and request the tool again. -FASTILY (TALK) 19:20, 15 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
O.K...will do.--Dom497 (talk) 19:55, 15 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

User:Solar Police

I am contributing well for wikipedia and I would like the rollback feature to contribute more and track vandals. Solar Police►Talk 09:58, 22 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done Sorry but you have very few vandal reverts and over half your edits seem to be to your user page. Please keep on using manual reverts (like WP:UNDO) and reapply soon. Pedro :  Chat  12:12, 22 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Fine. I will do that Solar Police►Talk 15:41, 22 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Although my activity has been low this month, I want to find a way to revert vandalism quicker than Twinkle. Rollbacking sounds good. Command and Conquer Expert! speak to me...review me... 00:38, 25 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
(Non-administrator comment) You seem to have only made about three reverts of vandalism, one with Twinkle. You should probably get some more experience before requesting the rollbacker right. Logan Talk Contributions 00:43, 25 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Ok. I will post again once I done some more reverting. Command and Conquer Expert! speak to me...review me... 16:02, 25 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Alrighty. Done more reverting. Twinkle is too slow for me. Command and Conquer Expert! speak to me...review me... 20:56, 25 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Because mass reverts like this morning's are pretty tedious without it. Jpatokal (talk) 11:33, 25 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Are you kidding me? I've been on Wikipedia since 2003 and have 14,000+ edits, including thousands of vandalism reverts. [1] I would do more if it wasn't a pain in the ass to do it, hence the request. Jpatokal (talk) 02:28, 26 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
On closer review, I note that your talk page bears numerous edit warring warnings and complaints regarding reverts you have made. In spite of your tenure on Wikipedia, you have not demonstrated to me that you understand the relevant policies required to use rollback properly, so I am not comfortable granting you access to the tool at this time. Please carefully review WP:AGF, WP:EW, and WP:VAN, make 50 or so reverts, and re-reqeust the tool. -FASTILY (TALK) 05:45, 26 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I find your characterization of my record borderline offensive. My unedited and unarchived talk page aggregates every single comment I have received in 8 years on Wikipedia, including two (2) accusations of edit warring, meaning that 0.014% of my edits have been challenged. The first was utterly spurious and made by a user who was blocked shortly thereafter. The second was made after I reverted two (2) times, over 24 hours apart, to restore sourced content that was deleted with no explanation; see here for the tedious details.
So here's a simple challenge to you if you're still worried by the vast amounts of havoc I'll be able to wreck by reverting edits with a single click instead of two: find a single revert of mine that clearly violates the three policies you cite. Good luck! Jpatokal (talk) 12:04, 26 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

User:CRRaysHead90

I requested this right after my unban in June cause I have it on the Simple English Wikipedia and am trusted with it there. I was denied due to my ban just ending. Now it's been roughly four months since my unban and am requesting it again. I'm trusted with it on another wiki. I have a need for it here. I know how to use it properly.
