I've been editing on Wikipedia for more than three years and i have developed the expertise to identify vandalism and familiarize myself with Wikipedia's content policies and copyright laws. I'm requesting the rights and responsibilities that come with this experience. [[User:S-Aura|𝒮-𝒜𝓊𝓇𝒶]] 13:39, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
I've been active at [[Special:RecentChanges|recent changes]] for more than 3 months to help [[Help:reverting|revert]] [[WP:vandalism|vandalism]] and report [[WP:Administrator intervention against vandalism|AIV]], which is successful. Rollback rights need access to a counter-vandalism tool. [[User:HirowoWiki|HirowoWiki]] ([[User talk:HirowoWiki|talk]] &#124; [[Special:Contributions/HirowoWiki|contribs]]) 01:21, 23 May 2024 (UTC)

I have been active on RCP over the past month. I would like rollback for the particular case where a vandal persistently vandalizes the same page. It takes time to load via Twinkle and is frustrating when my attempt to revert fails because the vandal or someone else has made more edits. I believe rollback will save me time and make my efforts against vandalism more effective. [[User:Air on White|Air on White]] ([[User talk:Air on White|talk]]) 03:00, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
Good day! I am requesting rollback rights to speed up the process of reviewing recent changes. I meet the mainspace edit count requirement and have been patrolling recent changes for over month. My track record of reviewing shows that I can quickly and effectively differentiate between vandalism and good faith contributions. Thank you.

::I do not warn users in what I assume to be legitimate content disputes, as warning would be patronizing and unconducive to discussion. The user who added the name of one of [[Pat Morita]]'s grandchildren appeared to be acting in good faith; I reverted not because he was vandalizing or disruptive, but because the person did not have his own Wikipedia article. The argument here is not about vandalism, NPOV or BLP, but simply a content dispute about what is proper to include in the infobox. Meanwhile, in the case of [[Matthew Heineman]], that was the third edit by a user who added BLP violations who was hopping to a different IP for every edit. It is useless to warn such a user, who I had already warned twice on two different IPs, just as it is useless to further warn a user who has received a level 4 warning and is still vandalizing. My failure to warn the vandal on [[The Chris Moyles Show]] was a mistake on my part, possibly because I forgot after I restored the page to remove vandalism by multiple IPs. I hope this helps you understand my editing process. [[User:Air on White|Air on White]] ([[User talk:Air on White|talk]]) 06:28, 26 May 2024 (UTC)

I am requesting rollback rights after making regular efforts towards combatting vandalism and disruptive editing. After previous denial, I sent messages in the users talk page multiple times as norms. Hope, the rollback permission able me enough to fight against vandalism edits on Wikipedia.

Hello,
:{{Not done}} I reviewed your contributions and found little to no recent anti-vandalism work. If you're still interested in this tool then please spend at least a month actively patrolling [[Special:RecentChanges|RecentChanges]] ([[Wikipedia:Twinkle|Twinkle]] & [[Wikipedia:Ultraviolet|Ultraviolet]] can help with that) before reapplying. Also, please ensure that you are consistently [[Wikipedia:Template index/User talk namespace|warning]] editors when you revert their edits. Thanks, [[User talk:Fastily|<span style="font-family:'Trebuchet MS';color:Indigo;font-weight:bold;font-variant-caps:small-caps;font-size:120%;">Fastily</span>]] 08:04, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

Roughly a month ago, I requested to be granted rollback rights. The administrator who responded, {{u|Fastily}}, [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_permissions/Rollback&oldid=1221172853#User:RodRabelo7 asked me] to patrol recent changes for a month before requesting the permission again. Having done so, I believe I am now ready to become a rollbacker. As mentioned in my previous request, I've been a rollbacker [https://xtools.wmcloud.org/ec-rightschanges/commons.wikimedia.org/RodRabelo7 on Commons for quite some time now] – over a year –, understanding how the tool works and the risks associated with it, and committing myself not to misuse it, under the risk of losing it temporarily or permanently, and even being blocked.

Having patrolled recent changes for this month, [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&end=&namespace=0&start=&tagfilter=Ultraviolet&target=RodRabelo7&offset=&limit=5000 with over 700 reversions in the main domain,] I'm now more confident than ever in distinguishing between obvious vandalism, non-constructive changes, and good-faith edits, for example. I always make sure to notify editors after reverting their edits, so that these newcomers are not "[[Wikipedia:Please do not bite the newcomers|bitten]]" (e.g. [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=McDonald%27s_ice_cream_machine&diff=prev&oldid=1225054227 1a], [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Pickleishere&diff=prev&oldid=1225062674 1b], [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Village_industries&diff=prev&oldid=1224744735 2a], [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:2605:59C8:154E:9400:217B:EDB8:E6F1:523F&oldid=1224744813 2b], [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Jan_Hus&diff=prev&oldid=1224722152 3a], [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:71.90.171.81&oldid=1224722167 3b], [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=History_of_timekeeping_devices&diff=prev&oldid=1224348946 4a], [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:50.207.254.140&oldid=1224349045 4b], [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Isle%C3%B1os_(Louisiana)&diff=prev&oldid=1224347861 5a], [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:2603:7080:9301:A7D:C922:90BB:619:4AEE&oldid=1224348025 5b]). Sometimes I even notify and guide them without reverting their edits; that's why I currently have a bit more [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&end=&namespace=3&start=&tagfilter=Ultraviolet&target=RodRabelo7&offset=&limit=5000 warnings on user pages] than reversions in the main domain.

I also have [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&end=&namespace=4&start=&tagfilter=Ultraviolet&target=RodRabelo7&offset=&limit=5000 a constant presence] in [[Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism|Administrator intervention against vandalism]], with a considerably high success rate (that is, the ratio between blocked accounts and reports). Of the more than 20 accounts I reported there (ignoring the IPs), only one was not blocked, for reasons I now understand well, so these will not be repeated. I have even opened [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/ImTheUnsub77&action=edit&redlink=1 a checkuser request] as a result of my anti-vandalism activities (although this request was deleted in favor of [[Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/AreYouARightPerson/Archive|one created later]], I don't know precisely why).

Therefore, I would like to finally become a rollbacker. As mentioned [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_permissions/Rollback&oldid=1221172853#User:RodRabelo7 before], I would like to have access to semi-automatic tools, namely Huggle, which would greatly facilitate my anti-vandalism work, making it more efficient. I enjoy patrolling recent changes, and rollback rights would certainly make my life easier.

:::Yes, unfortunately it is true that I am currently blocked on my home wiki. I was blocked there due to an administrative decision.

There was a certain [[WP:WIKIHOUNDING|wikihounding]] surrounding my edits, which I perceived as harassment and tried to respond accordingly.

:::Trying to be succinct so that you, unfamiliar with the specific Wikipedia in question, can understand the issue, what I can say is that people change, and today I have a completely different view than I did almost two years ago regarding the dynamics of a collaborative editing environment – a view that is constantly evolving, by the way. I always strive to improve as a person and as a user, and I believe my activities not only here and on [https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/RodRabelo7 Commons], but also on [https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/RodRabelo7 Wiktionary] and Wikisource (in [https://pt.wikisource.org/wiki/Especial:Contribui%C3%A7%C3%B5es/RodRabelo7 Portuguese] and [https://fr.wikisource.org/wiki/Sp%C3%A9cial:Contributions/RodRabelo7 French]), demonstrate my good faith towards Wikimedia projects.

However, it is difficult, being blocked on ptwiki, to convince the administrators there that I am acting in good faith. It is a [[Catch-22 (logic)|catch-22]].

Hi there,

I am requesting rollback rights so I can revert vandalism faster. I've been using Twinkle and reverting vandalism for more than a month now and I finally feel like it's the time. Around last month I've requested Rollback rights but it got declined because I had limited experience in reverting vandalism. I now have over 200 mainspace edits, reverting for more than a month now, and only [[Special:History/Connie Mulder|this]] that might count as edit warring. Having rollback rights would give me access to tools such as [[WP:AntiVandal|AntiVandal]] which will help me revert vandalism easier.

:::If I recall, what happened was I didn't see their edit summary and I only saw the edits that were blanking content. So, to answer your question, I shouldn't have reverted those edits because there were reasonable explanations for blanking. That was my mistake. Are there any other problems?

I am a German Wikipedian and have been active on enwiki as vandalism fighter since April, mostly using Twinkle sind SWViewer and always warning editors after reverting their contributions. Currently I have made almost 800 Edits here, which mostly consist of vandalism control. On dewiki I am member of the CVU, have more than 17000 edits as well as rollback rights. [https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/special:centralauth/ankermast]
I would like to be granted rollback rights as they would allow me fighting vandalism more efficiently and faster. Thanks [[User:Ankermast|Ankermast]] ([[User talk:Ankermast|talk]]) 08:24, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
:I see that you are failing to consistently [[Wikipedia:Template index/User talk namespace|warn]] editors when you revert their edits (e.g. [[Special:Diff/1226040089/prev|1]], [[Special:Diff/1225879709/prev|2]], [[Special:Diff/1225557294/prev|3]]). Why? Are you aware that we have tools such as [[Wikipedia:Twinkle|Twinkle]] or [[Wikipedia:Ultraviolet|Ultraviolet]] that make this ''extremely'' easy? -[[User talk:Fastily|<span style="font-family:'Trebuchet MS';color:Indigo;font-weight:bold;font-variant-caps:small-caps;font-size:120%;">Fastily</span>]] 20:48, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
::As I am using Twinkle, it becomes clear that the vast majority of my reverts are followed by a warning when looking at my contributions. Regarding your examples: 1. I restored an older version edited by two other users: an anonymous user which I did warn and a user which removed some of the vandalism by the IP, which I would not warn as this edit was constructive. 2. Here, the user removed the contribution by themselves except for a blank which I removed with restoring the latest constructive version. Here, as it seemed like a test edit and as the user removed it, I just removed said blank. 3. Out of hundreds of reverts, there are some cases in which I do not warn the editor. These are natural and I can’t do more than making the promise that like now, I am going to warn every vandal, to the best of my ability.

Hey, hope you're all doing well. I have created 54 pages so far. And also fighting vandalism by IP and other new users on Resenchanges. But I face problem in using Twinke to undo an article which has been attacked by different IPs. So, one has to face a lot of problems in that. This is why I want rollback rights, thanks with warm regards! [[User:Youknowwhoistheman|Youknowwhoistheman]] ([[User talk:Youknowwhoistheman|talk]]) 09:41, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
:{{Not done}} I reviewed your contributions and found little to no recent anti-vandalism work.

I am back requesting rollback rights, after a long [[Wikipedia:Wikibreak|wikibreak]]. I use twinkle for sending the warnings, and either the [https://web.libera.chat/?channel=#cvn-wp-en IRC] chat or recent changes to monitor for edits that seem to be needed a review. I practiced using huggle to test how it would suit me (without rollback rights, of course), and I think it would make fixing vandalism much easier. if you check, I have a good track record of notifying after an undo-edit, excluding when another editor beats me to the chase. please notify me of any concerns you have, and I will attempt to respond in a timely manner [[User:Megabits000|Megabits000]] ([[User talk:Megabits000|talk]]) 03:46, 29 May 2024 (UTC)

Revision as of 08:04, 9 July 2024

Rollback

I've been editing on Wikipedia for more than three years and i have developed the expertise to identify vandalism and familiarize myself with Wikipedia's content policies and copyright laws. I'm requesting the rights and responsibilities that come with this experience. 𝒮-𝒜𝓊𝓇𝒶 13:39, 6 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done I noticed you started actively editing about a week ago. While I appreciate your enthusiasm, I'd like to see you spend at least a month gaining experience editing Wikipedia before assigning you advanced permissions. Thanks, Fastily 20:45, 6 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, Thankyou for your guidance! 𝒮-𝒜𝓊𝓇𝒶 06:41, 7 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Good day! I am requesting rollback rights to speed up the process of reviewing recent changes. I meet the mainspace edit count requirement and have been patrolling recent changes for over month. My track record of reviewing shows that I can quickly and effectively differentiate between vandalism and good faith contributions. Thank you. Garsh (talk) 17:39, 7 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Done -Fastily 08:04, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I am requesting rollback rights after making regular efforts towards combatting vandalism and disruptive editing. After previous denial, I sent messages in the users talk page multiple times as norms. Hope, the rollback permission able me enough to fight against vandalism edits on Wikipedia.
