Twinkle

Hi! I noticed you've been reverting vandalism quite a bit, so I wanted to see if you knew about something called Twinkle. It is essentially a software on Wikipedia which users can use after they have had an account for 4 days and made 10 edits, that makes many forms of editing, notably reverting vandalism, much easier. This includes the ability to quickly tag articles, mark them for deletion, quickly rollback one's edits to a page, quickly warn users, report users to administrators, and much more. The details are outlined on the documentation page. To install Twinkle, go to your preferences, and navigate to the "Gadgets" tab. Under the "Browsing" section, check off the box to the left of the following sentence: "Twinkle: automate common tasks such as reporting vandalism, warning vandals, requesting deletion, welcoming users, and tagging articles (preferences)." Let me know if you have any questions about this, and thank you for your work with fighting vandalism!--SkyGazer 512 ^{Oh no, what did I do this time?} 03:02, 25 October 2018 (UTC)

@SkyGazer 512: Thanks a lot for your advice and way forward to fighting more bad edits. I'm grateful. I've heard about Twinkle but never used it so it's high time I give it a try now. If I've got any questions, I'll poke you :) Thanks! --Alangi Derick (talk) 08:44, 25 October 2018 (UTC)

And also, you can use Huggle. It’s much faster than Twinkle but it requires rollback. Sandy14156 (talk) 16:27, 27 October 2018 (UTC)

@Sandy14156: You're right but I don't have rollback userright so I'll just have to stick with TW for the mean time until I'm qualified to have rollback then I'll move to Huggle. Thanks :) --Alangi Derick (talk) 12:13, 4 November 2018 (UTC)

Rollback granted

Hi X-Savitar. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have temporarily enabled rollback on your account until 2019-03-03. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

• Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
• Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
• Rollback should never be used to edit war.
• If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
• Use common sense.

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! ~ Amory (u • t • c) 11:49, 3 February 2019 (UTC)

Thank you very much Amory (u • t • c). --X-Savitar (talk) 12:05, 3 February 2019 (UTC)
