Rollback

(add requestview requests)


There have been many users that have vandalized pages that are on my watchlist and I wish to fight the vandalism. Plus there have been occasions where I had to revert edits going against WP:MOS. iPhoneHurricane95 23:33, 27 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
There aren't many reverts that I noticed (about two since March) - do you also know that rollback, since a reason can't be specified, shouldn't be used to undo any edits related to style? -- Mentifisto 02:49, 28 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Yes. iPhoneHurricane95 22:01, 28 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I also have reverted edits made by me by mistake and in my own userspace. iPhoneHurricane95 23:07, 28 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done. Rollback is to be used strictly for clear cases of vandalism only, and is accorded to users who are highly active in this area. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 06:14, 31 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
To counter vandalism in a timely manner. As a member of the SWMT, I also have some experience dealing with cross-wiki vandals and spambots. Thanks Glaisher (talk) 10:58, 29 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Once again, requesting for anti-vandalism work. DavidLeighEllis (talk) 19:47, 30 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I want to fight vandalism in en wikipedia. Most of the time i keep eyes on page histories from my mobile phone. When i see any vandalism i always try to revert it by clicking undo. But my phone hanks when i try to undo or edit a large page. As a result i cant delete that words put by vandals. For instance, i can see that the last edit in this artical is a vandalism, but without rollback right i cant clear it. I have rollback right on bengali wiki, Check. I rollback right on en wiki. রাহাত | 20:16, 30 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I have about 500 edits (250 mainspace) with some undos of blanking sections across 3 months. I am making a 2nd request (after the first one was unfulfilled) for rollback as it would help me revert blanking and vandal edits more efficiantly.

I am usually monitoring the recent changes page and manually reverting edits using TW and stiki. Though Stiki is very useful it doesn't work inside my VPN. I am requesting a rollback access to help me do rollbacks quicker - I am not saying I am perfect and there have been few mistakes from my side during my many edits, but i always tend to correct any mistakes brought to my notice.
