Hi, I have been on Wikipedia for over a year and have made over 1k edits. I mostly edit and monitor history articles. Several articles are sometimes disrupted knowingly or unknowingly by editors for which I have to revert. Having Rollback right would make the patrolling work easier and help to combat vandalism. I am aware of most of Wikipedia polices (WP:OR,WP:NPOV,WP:RS,etc.) I have also authored few articles like Bajirao I see [1]. Mohammad Umar Ali (talk) 07:21, 28 April 2025 (UTC)

Hello, I am requesting rollback permissions as I would like to utilize tools such as Huggle, which require this permission. I have been actively patrolling recent changes using a custom filter and have consistently notified users whose edits I have reverted. Thanks, – AllCatsAreGrey (talk) 20:00, 29 April 2025 (UTC)

Hello admins, I’m respectfully requesting rollback rights so that I may contribute more efficiently to counter-vandalism work using Huggle. Patrolling recent changes is what I enjoy most on Wikipedia, and I’ve found that it’s where I can make the most impact with the time I have available. I've made 1840 edits since January. At present, I review edits by right-clicking the diff link to open changes in a new tab in Chrome and then use RedWarn to revert and warn users when appropriate. While this process works, it's time-consuming and not ideal for high-volume patrolling. Having rollback rights would allow me to use Huggle, which would significantly increase my productivity and responsiveness in handling vandalism. Earlier, I made two requests for different user rights but withdrew them after realizing that my interest lies more in patrolling and counter-vandalism than in article creation or extended content curation. That said, I have written one article and contributed to creating another recently, and I do plan to continue helping in content areas where I can. I also take direction well and am open to feedback. Thank you for considering my request. m a MANÍ1990(talk | contribs) 21:48, 30 April 2025 (UTC)

Hi, I have been on wikipedia for a few years & I've made over 1600 edits on the english wikipedia, and I've made over 7700 edits on wikimedia commons. I have reverted many vandalizing edits on a varierty of articles, and I've left many notices of these reverts on their talk pages. I've also made a few pages, mostly redirects, but I've also created other articles, including List of Agriotes species, Choristostreptus, and 1854 in Mexico. Having rollback privileges would make it much more efficient for me when undoing vandalism. No matter the decision, thanks so much! -Fneskljvnl🪱 (Contributions, Talk) (stay silly forever) 02:38, 3 May 2025 (UTC)

Hi, I'm a long-time user on Wikipedia (have experience with rollback rights on my home Wiki), recently I'm actively using support tools to prevent cross-wiki vandalism (including enwiki). I'd like to be granted rollback rights on enwiki to make it more convenient to rollback here. Thanks! Halley luv Filipino ❤ 10:56, 4 May 2025 (UTC)

Reapplying. When I applied around 2 weeks ago I didn't have that many mainspace edits and was declined based on that (but given PCR) - [[2]]. I haven't used PCR that much, but I've made contributions elsewhere with CSD, AfC and files. I still believe Rollback will improve my ability to fight vandalism on Wikipedia. I'm fine with waiting longer though if I need a bit more experience elsewhere. Nahida 🌷 15:10, 5 May 2025 (UTC)

I've been fighting vandalism a lot, and would like to make the process more efficient in the case of obvious vandalism so that I will not need an edit summary to revert many disruptive edits by a single user. Faster than Thunder (talk | contributions) 15:34, 6 May 2025 (UTC)
- I have used a similar feature with Twinkle, but am prompted to add an edit summary. "Vandalism" doesn't require a summary, but only affects the most recent revision. Faster than Thunder (talk | contributions) 15:35, 6 May 2025 (UTC)
- Effectively canvassing for your RfRollback in an ill-fated RfA nom that you then transcluded against policy does not speak well to your suitability. While that doesn't directly go to rollback-related policies, the main thing we worry about with rollback is people rushing into things without understanding what's going on, and this sure seems like that. -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (they|xe|🤷) 07:58, 8 May 2025 (UTC)

Hi. I would like to request for rollback rights to fight and detect the vandalism and revert unconstructive edits more easily. I am familier with the relevant policies related to vandalism and also with WP:Rollback. Thank You ! Fade258 (talk) 08:57, 7 May 2025 (UTC)

I understand that the right may not be technically necessary due to redundancy with global rights, but I was previously declined local rollback. If the request is accepted this time, even without the flag being granted, it tells me that admins appreciate my works, and encourage me to participate using the rollback tool locally as part of the community. Thank you for your consideration. —— 🌸 Sakura emad 💖 (talk) 17:25, 7 May 2025 (UTC)

Hello, I am requesting rollback rights as I believe they will improve my ability to counter vandalism. I spend a decent amount of my time patrolling Recent Changes, and I am familiar with the policies concerning vandalism and other types of unconstructive editing.

Hello 🙏 My temporary rollback rights is expiring soon. I’ve used rollback right responsibly to revert vandalism. Would kindly like to request permanent rollback permission to continue this work. Thank you. Rahmatula786 (talk) 07:55, 8 May 2025 (UTC)
