Rollback

Sorry, unregistered users cannot be granted permissions due to technical restrictions. Please create an account in order to request user account permissions.
Shortcuts
Please review Wikipedia:Rollback before making a request. Applicants with fewer than 200 mainspace edits are unlikely to be granted this right. More importantly, applicants must have a measurable track record of counter-vandalism and no recent history of edit warring. The counter-vandalism training program is available if you wish to gain experience in handling vandalism.

User:King Rishab Dugar

Hello please grant me the rollback rights.There are many instances where I require it to prevent vandalism which is otherwise a lengthy process.I have been using Wikipedia for more than a year and I am active for past 6 months.With this feature in hand I can contribute more and help in fighting vandalism more effectively and smoothly .

Hi there King Rishab Dugar. Could you please provide a few examples of your anti-vandalism work, especially those where you believe having rollback would have made the job easier? – Juliancolton | Talk 03:53, 14 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Pages like Morkhana where irrelevant and nonsense things were being added when it was recently created.I don't remember many of them since at that time i didn't provide an edit summary.However I take care to do that now.— Preceding unsigned comment added by King Rishab Dugar (talk • contribs) 01:28, 19 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

User:PakEditor

I am a member of WikiProject Pakistan and edit Pakistan-related articles. I am an active and experienced editor. I am undoing bad faith edits and vandalism specially made by unknown users on Pak-related articles. I have read about rollbacking and have understood that it is a good facility and an easy way to undo bad faith edits and vandalism. I want to attain this facility and be a rollbacker so, I may fight more against vandalism easily. PakEditor (talk) 05:47, 27 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I've had rollback on Commons for over a year now and got rather used to it, and to the best of my memory never abused it or accidentally rolled back something. Although I admit I don't actively hunt for vandalism, when I do spot it I find that rollback would be rather convenient. Sometimes I'd also undo the addition of copyvio images to articles, odd things or undo a bot after a file has been undeleted. If rollback can't be granted due to a lack of volume, I understand. But it would be convenient. - Alexis Jazz 09:01, 28 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
 Done for three months (limited just for a routine review either here or on my talk page before making permanent). You might find that Twinkle might be more useful for your use case, also. Best, Kevin (aka L235 · t · c) 19:42, 28 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@L235: Thank you! I actually do have Twinkle enabled, but rarely use it. Mw-rollback works much smoother for me. - Alexis Jazz 08:07, 29 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

User:IsraphelMac

My primary focus on the English Wikipedia is counter-vandalism. I have recently returned from inactivity, and have seen a few editors using Huggle over the past day or two. I'd like to try out Huggle and see if it works better than Twinkle for my workflow. IsraphelMac (talk) 07:30, 29 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Requesting Rollback rights for the usage of Huggle over Twinkle, as what I primarily do on Wikipedia is counter-vandalism (as is viewable via my contribs), and i'd like to see if that makes it easier, or otherwise affects my work-flow.

I have been combating vandalism on Wikipedia for quite a while now, and I would like to have Rollback rights to help me in the process. Dinan8 (talk) 00:51, 31 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done. Please see the notice at the top of this page. With only 145 edits to the mainspace, I don't think you have sufficient editing experience yet. Take a moment to check out what counter-vandalism is at WP:CVU, and if you decide you'd like to get involved, you can enroll at the Counter Vandalism Academy to learn more. — JJMC89 (T·C) 04:44, 31 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

User:The4lines

Hello, I know I'm new, but since I started reverting vandalism I would like to have the rollback right just for a small time (like 1 week or less) before we see if I can if the rollback right forever. (or not)The4lines (talk) 02:39, 31 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Good Afternoon. I held rollback permission for a number of years before a fairly lengthy retirement. I asked for it to be removed after I misclicked an edit on my watchlist. However I've begun to make a handful of edits once again and I think it may be useful to have it enabled. I still remember the rules and have no intention of abusing the tool.
