I've made nearly 900 edits on the English language Wikipedia. I do not use gadgets such as Twinkle or Huggle. I love to use the good old wiki markup. My initial edits were not quite Wikipedia-worthy. But later on I learnt a lot and became quite experienced in the editing rules of Wikipedia. I'd like to be granted the rollback feature in order to revoke vandalism on Wikipedia and help make it the most reliable source of info on the internet. NiRinsanity 05:33, 16 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Um, did I do something wrong? If any administrator who is eligible to grant rollback rights can read this, please at least explain why I am not eligible if I'm not. NiRinsanity 18:28, 19 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
It's not been granted, declined, or removed yet... someone will get round to it when they get round to it. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 18:44, 20 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I am a frequent editor, and I see on my watchlist or notifications that users, this includes IP and anonymous users, reverting edits I have made or admins have made and replace them with things such as "KIDZ BOP SUCKS!!!!!!!". Someone reverts the edit, 19 minutes later, the same user reverts the edits. The only thing I hate more than people vandalizing articles is people vandalizing edits, even past edits! I will be glad to be a rollbacker because I want to stop vandalism. 𝕁𝕠𝕣𝕕𝕒𝕟𝕂𝕪𝕤𝕖𝕣𝟚𝟚 𝕋𝕒𝕝𝕜 𝕥𝕠 𝕞𝕖 / 𝕊𝕖𝕖 𝕙𝕠𝕨 𝕀 𝕒𝕞 𝕕𝕠𝕚𝕟𝕘 / 𝕄𝕪 𝕠𝕨𝕟 𝕦𝕤𝕖𝕣𝕓𝕠𝕩𝕖𝕤 / 𝕊𝕦𝕓𝕡𝕒𝕘𝕖𝕤 𝕠𝕗 𝕞𝕪 𝕠𝕨𝕟 21:53, 18 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
{{not done}} only 400 article space contributions, little vandalism reversion to date. Suggest contributing more to anti-vandalism and re-applying here Samir 03:20, 22 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
 Done In retrospect 400 mainspace is a lot. Still would suggest using the tool wisely Samir 04:12, 22 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I have recently returned to wikipedia from a year long break. I was banned for sock puppetry and the BASC allowed me back on to edit. I did obtain rollback before and used it for my anti-vandalism duties on the recent changes front of things. However, I believe that was removed with my ban. I have a history of good use with rollback before and was a main player in the CVU for a while, so I would love to have it back to continue where I left off with anti vandalism! I would also like to help everyone else out and start rewarding the Irish Warden anti-vandalism award again! Thєíríshwαrdєn - írísh αnd prσud 16:35, 19 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done sockpuppetry ban just lapsed yesterday. Will take longer to earn the community's trust for privileges again Samir 03:22, 22 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Actually it was back on Tuesday and have been editing correctly since then. Very annoyed ~ — Preceding unsigned comment added by TheIrishWarden (talk • contribs) 07:58, 22 March 2014‎
All of Wikipedia was annoyed by your prior jackassery. You don't need rollback to fight vandalism. Show that you have the community's trust for the tool then apply Samir 21:25, 22 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This is my Third Request for Rollback, and with about 500 Edits, Can I have it now... BTW results were: Snowed Twice. TitusFox 18:46, 20 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done only 88 mainspace edits. Still need more experience Samir 03:45, 22 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I want to be an active contributor to wikipedia Mufaddalqn (talk) 11:08, 21 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done recent editwar (<30 days ago) with warnings, unusual CSD#G10 request on an article and vague reason for requesting rollback Samir 03:46, 22 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I had been trying to protect the article Mufaddal Saifuddin from Blp violation and propaganda. later on I was successful to block the editor who was entering into war edit. CSD#G10 was done on request of my fellow editors which was the genuine case. I request reconsideration. My Global Contribution is (725 wikis searched. 426 edits found in 2 projects). I genuinely would like to be an active contributor to wiki and stop Articles from Vandalism. Mufaddalqn (talk) 07:53, 22 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Don't need rollback for vandalism patrol. Would like to see a cleaner recent slate when giving rollback but I wouldn't be averse to you reapplying after showing anti-vandalism edits -- Samir 21:29, 22 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

User:DendroNaja

I currently have 1,220 edits. I try to promote as many venomous snake articles to GA status. I have written the Black mamba, Forest cobra, and Many-banded krait articles and promoted them to GA status. I am currently working on a number of other articles for GA status. IP users can be huge vandals and I would like the rollback feature in order to revoke vandalism on Wikipedia. I am a firm believer that Wikipedia is an outstanding tool and world-wide resource that deserves its integrity to be protected. Fighting vandalism and trolls is of utmost importance in order to keep Wikipedia a source that's reliable, trustworthy and accurate. --Dendro†NajaTalk to me! 03:18, 23 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

User:Storye book

Some time ago I asked an administrator (I'm ashamed to say I forget who) to grant me rollback rights, and hooray! - a couple of days ago I noticed that I had the rollback facility available to me on article history pages and so on. So firstly I would like to know who granted it to me so that I can thank them. Secondly, I checked whether I'm on the rollback membership list, but I cannot see my name there. So please could you add my name to the rollbackers list? I should add that I was already occasionally using the Undo facility to remove obvious vandalism, and was always very careful not to misuse it for good faith edits. I have today been granted Autopatroller rights, for which I am very grateful. Thank you for your time in kindly dealing with this for me. Storye book (talk) 17:53, 23 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
(Non-administrator comment) Forgive me if I'm wrong, but your user rights log never mentioned that you were ever a rollbacker. You became a reviewer in June 2010, and got your autoreviewer rights today, so congratulations! But as far as I know, you were never given rollback rights and popups reveals that you currently do not have the rollback flag, thus you don't have rollback links. Perhaps the rollback links was on another wiki? K6ka (talk | contribs) 18:09, 23 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
You're right - that is really strange. For two or three days, I have been able to see the rollback facility (can't miss it, the rollback-vandal is bright red) on article history tabs, and on "difference between revisions" pages, such as this one. I can no longer see it on the history tabs, but can still see it on the difference-between-revisions pages. I do not share my PC at all, so there is no mistake about login. I only use en.wikipedia (this one) and Wikimedia Commons, and have just checked both. I'm not sure now what has been happening. So please can we start again at the beginning, and please may I request rollback facility formally? Thank you. --Storye book (talk) 18:28, 23 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
@Storye book:(Non-administrator comment)Bright-red? That's not the MediaWiki rollback, that is Twinkle, which gives autoconfirmed users rollback links. The way Twinkle rollbacks edits is a bit different than the MediaWiki rollback, so it's a bit slower. K6ka (talk | contribs) 18:45, 23 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, thank you, now I understand. Your help is much appreciated. But I would still like to apply for MediaWiki rollback, if that is OK? --Storye book (talk) 19:20, 23 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
(Non-administrator comment) You seem experience, 10 years and have couple thousand edits so sure it's alright. ///EuroCarGT 03:39, 24 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for your kind support. In fact I have 13,000+ edits in en.wikipedia mainspace. The 2,000+ refers to the number of images which I have uploaded to Wikipedia Commons. --Storye book (talk) 07:58, 24 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
