Wikipedia:Requests for permissions/Rollback

From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Current requests for rollback

Hello. It has been over two months since I joined Wikipedia. Between here and now, I have over two thousand edits and most of them deals with vandalism. I am also a recent changes patroller, and I use Twinkle to warn, report, and revert. I am a very active editor, and I think having the rollback feature would greatly benefit me and this Wikipedia. I have thoroughly read the rules of rollback, and I know the difference between vandalism and good edits. Thank you for your consideration. Aster🪻 talk edits 08:35, 19 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to assist Simple English Wikipedia even more than I currently have by having Rollback. I've been active for a while and feel that I am ready. Contributor118,784 Let's talk 14:13, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done User is currently under blocks on multiple wikis. Address those issues first. -- Enfcer (talk) 17:24, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I would like to have rollback because I usually undo and rarely use Twinkle to revert vandalism edits, and I have over 2,000 edits. Plus, I'm also a very active user that I edit almost every day. The reason I want to have rollback is because I will use rollback to revert most vandalism edits. Thank you. thetree284 (talk) 02:28, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Thetree284:  Not done Thank you for your contributions, however I don't think you have made enough undos to show enough experience for rollback just yet, only around 16 undos, excluding non-vandalism and self-undos. More experience should come with time, so please do not let this request discourage you from editing. Thank you, --Ferien (talk) 21:00, 9 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
How many undos do I need to get rollback? thetree284 (talk) 22:33, 9 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Thetree284 You've missed the point, It's not about the number of undos - it's about the experience - the more experience you have the better. –Davey2010Talk 22:43, 9 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
How long do I need to stay in this Wikipedia to get rollback? thetree284 (talk) 22:44, 9 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Continue editing for 3 months and use undo a couple of hundred undos and I'm sure it will granted. Yelromcc (talk) 22:55, 9 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That's not how it works, either. You need to show that you understand when something should be undone, and the difference between vandalism and other kinds of things that should be undone. There's no specific amount of changes or amount of time. -- Auntof6 (talk) 23:51, 9 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I would like to request rollback rights. I am active on simplewiki, I often check Recent Changes. I've met vandalism here before, and I also created a script to fight it (User:BZPN/Rollback.js; I also use Twinkle). While I'm constantly trying to gain experience for the patroller, I also have rollback permissions on the plwiki and I know when and how to use them :). Thank you and best regards, BZPN (talk) 22:34, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
