- Hello. I am Secondhand Work. I am a vandal-fighter on Wikipedia as well as an RC patroller. I have used Twinkle to combat vandalism. But, with rollback, I can use programs like igloo and STiki to further combat vandalism. Thank you. Secondhand Work (talk) 02:15, 1 March 2014 (UTC)
- Not done. Please see the notice at the top of this page. With only 136 edits to mainspace, I don't think you have sufficient editing experience yet. Take a moment to check out what counter-vandalism is at WP:CVU and when you have made 200 or so edits you may wish to enroll at the Counter Vandalism Academy to learn more. only (talk) 12:52, 3 March 2014 (UTC)

- I only occasionally stumble across the kind of multi-edit vandalism that would require rollback rights, but during my more than seven years as a Wikipedia editor, it certainly would have been a benefit from time to time. I can also assure I know pretty well when and when not to use this function. Axolotl Nr.733 (talk) 11:02, 4 March 2014 (UTC)
- Done Based on tenure and mainspace engagement. Please remember never to use the tool in situations such as at Deaths in 2014, where the edit summaries you provided were vital. Pedro : Chat 11:14, 4 March 2014 (UTC)

- I mostly tend to patrol RC and new pages (on and off, time permitting), and aim to cut back vandalism. Rollback would ease/speed up things for me, as the occasional strings of vandalism edits can take a lot of effort to remedy. The responsibilities associated with rollback rights are clearly understood, and I will only use the feature when there is no other, more sensible way to fix things. noisy jinx huh? 20:53, 4 March 2014 (UTC)

- I've used Twinkle for quite awhile and would like to try out other tools Kap 7 (talk) 04:27, 8 March 2014 (UTC)

- Much of my activity is Recent Changes patrolling. I have gained experience with Twinkle "rollback" but wish to use native rollback for more rapid removal of vandalism. I understand it is only for blatant vandalism. BethNaught (talk) 09:51, 9 March 2014 (UTC)
