Rollback

(add request • view requests)
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. The counter-vandalism training program is available if you wish to gain experience in handling vandalism.

I use Twinkle's rollback feature dozens of times daily and I am very involved in anti-vandalism. I am a recent changes patroller and rollback is very necessary for reverting vandalism there. I also have more than 1,000 edits. Thank you. — Music1201 talk 05:55, 3 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
 Automated comment This user has had 1 request for rollback declined in the past 90 days ([1]) and has 198 edits in the mainspace. — MusikBot talk 06:01, 3 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The above comment is invalid, I have over 200 mainspace edits now and also did at the time of requesting. Also my previous request wasn't declined, I withdrew just moments after. — Music1201 talk 06:19, 3 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Music1201: A few extra mainspace edits isn't going to make a massive difference anyway. The 200 mainspace edits is just a guideline, and it doesn't guarantee that you will get the permission, and if you have less than 200, there are still exceptions to the rule. — Omni Flames (talk contribs) 06:53, 3 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Omni Flames: I know that, but I do have over 200 mainspace edits and that number is continuing to grow. I know that doesn't guarantee me that permission. — Music1201 talk 06:56, 3 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done Note: requester solicited me to review this on my talk page. You will need to demonstrate more experience with reversions and vandalism fighting, for example this edit that you just reverted - doesn't assume good faith, this is something you could have verified yourself in about 5 seconds with a web search. — xaosflux Talk 21:38, 3 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry about the bot... it wasn't written to distinguish withdrawn from denied, but either way I think it should be reported. The mainspace count issue I can't explain. It uses the replication database in the same way Supercount and XTools do. However the repl can be behind production, so you might have saw you had 200+ mainspace edits using Special:Contribs. Anyway the count as you know doesn't actually matter. All the bot comments are simple clerking and not representative of hard requirements — MusikAnimal talk 19:38, 4 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I use Twinkle at least 4 days a week for vandalism squelching and honestly thought I had the permission already. I haven't been criticized by any non-vandals (as far as I know) for my use of Twinkle. Julietdeltalima (talk) 22:45, 5 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

User:Dschslava

I routinely use Twinkle and STiki for counter-vandalism edits (see my semi-automated edit history). Rollback would help me considerably. Dschslava (talk) 06:04, 6 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
