Twinkle

Hey :). I thought I'd reply here because my reply's quite lengthy! If you've installed Twinkle, that should help you with that kind of thing if you're in the right browser- it doesn't work in Explorer, but I use it in Firefox and Google Chrome and I think it may work with a few others. When you click on a diff to revert it, Twinkle gives you three buttons at the top: [Rollback (AGF)] [Rollback] and [Rolllack (VANDAL)]- you might want to test them (use my sandbox if you want) to see what they do (it's easier to see for yourself rather than explain it!). In vector (the horrible new skin) you get a dropdown menu labelled "TW" at the top of the page. You have buttons called "PROD" "XfD" "CSD" for requesting deletion and, at the top of a user talk page, you get a "warn button" which will give you a menu to choose how severe you want the warning to be and what it's for and you can add an optional note. If they get a "final warning" and vandalise again, use the "ARV" button to report them to AIV (you can also report sockpuppets and usernames, but one thing at a time!) and they'll probably be blocked. It also lets you request page protection and various other things that are quite tedious (like deleting every page in a category if you;re an admin)! WP:TW has a few pictures and instructions written by someone who isn't an idiot if you need them and the folks at WT:TW should be able to help if you get stuck. Hope that helps, HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 12:13, 19 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks very much your help was very useful and I think I have now worked out how to do what I need to do within protocol. Thanks once again. Tubby23 (talk) 12:15, 19 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You're more than welcome! Give it a week or two to get to grips with Twinkle and then come and ask me on my talk page about rollback :). Don't hesitate to ask if you have questions. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 13:34, 19 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks!

For signing my Guestbook, that was nice of you. --Tommy2010 00:37, 20 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Your request for rollback

Hi Tubby23. After reviewing your request for rollback, I have enabled rollback on your account. 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:New admin school/Rollback. I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Tiptoety ^talk 04:27, 24 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, glad to see you got rollback, though I would have liked to have granted it myself :). Let me know if you need help, Best, HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 16:44, 25 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
