I would like to request rollback permissions to help combat vandalism more effectively on Wikipedia, I have been reverting vandalism for a good amount of time from recent changes using twinkle and undo. Therefore I think rollback tool can help me to assist in identifying and reverting unconstructive edits efficiently. Imwin567 (talk) 16:22, 9 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I would like to get a rollback. I often search for vandalism on Wikipedia, and it will obviously be easier for me to fight it with a rollback. I warn users when necessary, and i know the most important WP policies. The Seal F1 (talk) 07:32, 10 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

User:Est. 2021

As a patroller and changes reviewer, I often find subtle vandalisms I can't easily fix in a click. I'd like to be more effective against disruptive edits. You can check my history at User:Est. 2021/contribs#Maintenance.— Est. 2021 (talk · contribs) 09:01, 19 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Est. 2021, that's a pretty impressive page. May become tough to maintain if the number of edit requests increases, of course. 🙂 ~ ToBeFree (talk) 18:10, 19 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

no Disagree The granting of new user rights has been questioned. Permission granted too hastily, in 9 hours from creation request by this user. Not only the contribution number of edits is important but also the behavior. The user violated the rules on the day the permissions were granted. The matter is explained here: User_talk:Est._2021#+rollback. Since when does Wikipedia treat disposable posting a valid link to an article as "unconstructive" and "disruptive" edits? Please read his application above, I quote, "I often find subtle vandalisms I can't easily fix in a click. I'd like to be more effective against disruptive edits". This is his "to be more effective against disruptive edits"? User named the correct edit as "disruptive" and just got tools to remove such edits more easily. @ToBeFree:: this is unacceptable. Permissions granted too hastily should be revoked. TravelerFromEuropeanUnion (talk) 21:21, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
TravelerFromEuropeanUnion, oh, here too. Same advice here: Talk to the user if you're unhappy about their conduct. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 22:31, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

User:Langusto

Currently, I am almost exclusively active in the fight against vandalism on the English Wiki. Therefore, I think that the rollback right that I already have in the German Wikipedia would be appropriate for me and would make my work a lot easier. Of course, I sometimes make mistakes, but I will use the right carefully if it is granted to me. Langusto (talk) 12:06, 19 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I would like to request rollback rights to assist with reverting vandalism. I’m familiar with relevant guidelines and will use the tool appropriately. Thank you for your consideration. 👑 Jesus isGreat7 👑 | 📜 Royal Talk 17:41, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done Requesting four different permissions in less than a day reeks of WP:Hat collecting. * Pppery * it has begun... 19:40, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Pppery I'm really sorry for applying all the request at once as I thought I have fufilled all the criterias, I would only like to apply for Rollback rights in order to gain a new experience so to prevent vandalism and disruptive edits, Thanks! 👑 Jesus isGreat7 👑 | 📜 Royal Talk 08:13, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I wish to have Rollback permissions to revert vandalism as I've been doing for at least a month with 500+ main space edits I wish to use like WP:HUGGLE and a lot more programs to help prevent vandalism. Valorrr (lets chat) 22:20, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

 Automated comment This user has had 1 request for rollback declined in the past 90 days ([1]). — MusikBot talk 22:20, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I know this, and I believe I improved. Valorrr (lets chat) 22:21, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
 Question: Valorrr: I'd still like to see you get some more experience before granting you the rollback permission as it will allow you access to some fairly powerful automated tools, as you have indicated. I can see that you have gained some experience though. To show that you understand when you can use permissions to help in a related area that usually has a backlog I'd be happy to grant you the pending changes reviewer permission so that you can help review Special:PendingChanges. Would you be okay with that? Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 04:15, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I'm perfectly okay with that, do you want me to notify you when I come back for rollback? Valorrr (lets chat) 16:05, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Callanecc: Just notifying. Valorrr (lets chat) 16:05, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

User:WormEater13

Hi! I've been patrolling, creating, and monitoring articles on Wikipedia for months, but recently i've been able to be more active. I would like to request the rollback right - having the right would make my work patrolling Special:RecentChanges easier, as I wouldn't need to manually undo edits, but rather just be able to rollback edits directly. I use tools such as WP:RedWarn and WP:Twinkle, so having rollback rights would help me combat vandalism easier. Not to mention, I am aware of Wikipedia's core policies - such as WP:N, WP:NPOV, etc. As a newcomer myself, I am very well aware of WP:BITE and try to be as friendly and welcoming to new editors as possible.

 Not done. I've just granted you the Pending Changes Reviewer permission from your request there. Let's see how you get on with that first and then we'll take another look again when you've made a few more edits. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 04:08, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Understood. Thank you so much! WormEater13 (talk • contribs) 11:46, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @Callanecc! I apologize if disturbing, but would I be able to ask for a re-review? Since you replied, i've made about ~300 more edits (60%), and have been able to review quite a few articles with PCR. I would love to utilize the rollback feature, especially since a lot of my contributions as of right now are towards combatting vandalism.
