Rollback

User:Fork99

I would like to have the rollback permission as it would make watching my watchlist easier, when vandalism occurs. I currently use Twinkle, but some recent situations involving vandalism from a sockpuppet master (more info: Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Iran Turkey war) involve a lot of reversions. I have experience in reverting other vandalism and am aware and understand the WP:3R rule. I have gotten many users reported to AIV and successfully blocked.

I've been reverting vandalism for a while now, and I'd like rollback rights to help me achieve this a bit more effectively. Grumpylawnchair (talk) 01:31, 16 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

User:TheBigBookOfNaturalScience

I've been reverting a lot of vandalism since I became a recent changes patroller to the point where I think I would qualify for rollback. I have more than 3000 edits to the English Wikipedia. With this, I can access tools that require rollback rights (e.g. AntiVandal) so I can contribute more to the English Wikipedia. I have read both H:RV and WP:RBK. [EDIT: I forgot to mention that I was declined for not having a recordable track history for vandalism, which I have fixed] 📖 (💬/📜) 23:19, 17 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

User:Trailblazer101

Hello, I am requesting Rollback permission as I believe I have developed further in counter-vandalism efforts and engaging with other editors when a potential edit war arises or before to ensure active, civil discussions occur. Other than my bundle of edits ensuring up-to-date information with accuracy from sources, I have a track record of reverting vandalism on several film-related articles that are primarily plain vandalism, edits going against consensus, or additions of unsourced statements. I have requested Rollback in the past and was advised to ensure I leave messages to editors I have reverted, and I have been doing so for a good while now and have made sure to give detailed responses in counter-vandalism reversions where mostly applicable for engagement in discussions. I do use Twinkle for several reversions, although at times, it does not load always given my computer's wear and tear and periodical slowness with the internet, which has delayed some of my reversions, hence this request. I am open to discussing any questions or concerns that anyone has. Trailblazer101 (talk) 04:38, 18 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Trailblazer101, I'm impressed by the amount of detail provided in your edit summaries. Please keep that up; don't let rollback interfere with this helpful behavior unless you're reverting really obvious vandalism. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 22:31, 27 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

:: Not done You only have 39 mainspace edits (far below the 200 recommended at the top of the page) and no track record of fighting vandalism. (Non-administrator comment) JML1148 (talk | contribs) 11:21, 23 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@JML1148 Non-administrators are not permitted to decline permissions requests. Please revert your response. - 🔥𝑰𝒍𝒍𝒖𝒔𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝑭𝒍𝒂𝒎𝒆 (𝒕𝒂𝒍𝒌)🔥 23:59, 25 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Illusion Flame: My apologies for the mistake, I have struck it out. I had done it because I thought it was clear enough for a non-admin to decline. JML1148 (talk | contribs) 00:14, 26 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, and I should clarify. There was no issue with your response, this will obviously be declined. It should always be reviewed by an administrator just in case though. - 🔥𝑰𝒍𝒍𝒖𝒔𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝑭𝒍𝒂𝒎𝒆 (𝒕𝒂𝒍𝒌)🔥 00:17, 26 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Illusion Flame, Whilst it's not a best practice to decline requests, it is not explicitly stated that non-admins cannot decline requests. Zippybonzo | Talk (he|him) 07:22, 27 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Looking through policies, you’re correct, I cannot find anything that non-admins can’t decline requests. However, I do remember awhile back an admin telling me that only admins should decline requests. I don’t really know. - 🔥𝑰𝒍𝒍𝒖𝒔𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝑭𝒍𝒂𝒎𝒆 (𝒕𝒂𝒍𝒌)🔥 09:18, 27 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The admins just don't want people to clerk requests. Zippybonzo | Talk (he|him) 11:31, 27 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, but I remember being told that PERM requests should only be closed by administrators, but I don’t quite remember where. - 🔥𝑰𝒍𝒍𝒖𝒔𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝑭𝒍𝒂𝒎𝒆 (𝒕𝒂𝒍𝒌)🔥 12:59, 27 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done – I can't find any evidence that you've been reverting vandalism for a while now, at least not on the English Wikipedia. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 03:25, 26 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

User:Vyvagaba

Hi, I have been editing on Wikipedia for years now, and I have around 1200 edits made, including a fixing vandalism from a a vandalism-only account which I nominated successfully for an indefinate ban. I think I am a good candidate for roll back permissions. Vyvagaba (talk) 13:12, 23 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

User:Denisarona

Reason for requesting rollback rights To make it easier, especially when reverting vandalism. Thanks Denisarona (talk) 15:00, 23 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The previous revocation of rollback and this old ANI thread will need to be addressed before this request goes anywhere. DanCherek (talk) 03:49, 26 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

User:Karnataka

I have much more experience than my previous request, I currently use Twinkle for reverting and can heavily contribute further to fighting vandalism with this right. Karnataka (talk) 21:21, 24 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

User:Knowledgegatherer23

Hello. I would like to request Rollback Rights so I can use tools that require it such as AntiVandal and Huggle. Thanks for your time. Knowledgegatherer23 (Say Hello) 06:50, 26 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
