Rollback

I've been monitoring Recent Changes for just over a month and would like to expand my tools to Interceptor and Wikimonitor. I would be fine with a trial as well.

I have one incident that may disqualify me: My edit war with a TA that I took to ANI too hastily and was quickly corrected by BlackKite. Otherwise I believe I fulfil all requirements? Realtent (talk) 17:33, 9 April 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Does the lack of response mean my application is unsuccessful? If so, where should I improve? Realtent (talk) 21:26, 12 April 2026 (UTC)[reply]
No, it merely means no admin has looked at your request or that they looked at it and weren't comfortable making a decision on it. * Pppery * it has begun... 01:48, 13 April 2026 (UTC)[reply]
(Non-administrator comment) For what its worth, I checked a number of Twinkle reverts in articlespace with 'rvv' in the summary and found them to be pretty good, or at least within discretion. There is also good ratio of user talk and mainspace edits. But well, said ANI is only 12 days ago which is pretty recent. 45dogs (they/them) (talk page) (contributions) 00:12, 15 April 2026 (UTC)[reply]

I patrol the guild of copyeditors, and WP:Cleanup. I also do vandalism patrol in recent changes, and sometimes Twinkle doesn't work. Thank you. Robloxguest3 (talk) 15:50, 16 April 2026 (UTC)[reply]

I've been doing some RC patrol for a bit, plus using Twinkle and several other gadgets, so I want access to more tools and to rollback to revert vandalism more quickly. User97104 (tcr) 23:23, 16 April 2026 (UTC)[reply]

I have been actively patrolling Recent Changes using Twinkle/RedWarn, and I would like to request the rollback permission. Granting this right would allow me to utilize faster anti-vandalism tools like Huggle and native rollback to help keep the encyclopedia clean. I have a solid track record of identifying vandalism and consistently leaving the appropriate warnings on user talk pages. Thank you for your consideration!

I have been patrolling recent changes for a few months now using RW Patrol and more recently RTRC. While reverting/warning is done using RW/UV/Twinkle. Granting me rollback rights would let me access more tools such as Interceptor for easier anti-vandalism tasks. Scoria (talk) 01:27, 18 April 2026 (UTC)[reply]

I’d like to request rollback rights. Over the past few weeks I’ve been patrolling Recent Changes and reverting clear vandalism and disruptive edits, following the advice I received earlier. I use brief edit summaries, avoid edit warring, and understand rollback is only for obvious vandalism. I’d use it responsibly. AriuCH (talk) 21:41, 19 April 2026 (UTC)[reply]

I am currently working through a bunch of WP:COLOR violations, and the ability to do mass rollbacks isn't part of Twinkle. I have a good track record of explaining why stuff is removed, and can be trusted with this permission. Kingsmasher678 (talk) 15:45, 21 April 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Having seen the other requests, I can confirm that my reasoning is the same as many others on here. I have been doing RC patrolling for a few weeks now and would like to expand the tools I have access to in order to streamline the process. I have a strong track record of notifying people when I revert, which I have done many times at this point. Either way, thank you for your consideration! --DollarStoreBa'alConverse 20:47, 21 April 2026 (UTC)[reply]
