I have more than 3500 edits and an unblemished edit history over several years. Recently I have dealt with a number of instances of promotional vandalism and it would be helpful to have rollback for those cases. I understand how Rollback works. DOCUMENT★ERROR 00:49, 4 January 2015 (UTC)

 Not done. Please see the notice at the top of this page. With only 10 edits to mainspace, I don't think you have sufficient editing experience yet. Take a moment to check out what counter-vandalism is at WP:CVU and when you have made 200 or so edits to articles you may wish to enroll at the Counter Vandalism Academy to learn more. — MusikAnimal ^talk 23:40, 4 January 2015 (UTC)

@MusikAnimal: This will be my 367 edit. Acj1 =^.^= Say Hi To Me! 23:46, 4 January 2015 (UTC)

@Acj1: We generally expect 200 edits to the mainspace, or a sufficient recent editing history clearly showing you can identify what constitutes vandalism and good-faith edits. See WP:CVU to learn more. Thank you for your interest in helping fight vandalism. — MusikAnimal ^talk 00:05, 5 January 2015 (UTC)

Can I come back when I've made enough edits??? @MusikAnimal: Thanks, Acj1 =^.^= Say Hi To Me! 00:46, 5 January 2015 (UTC)

Certainly! Just file a new request at a later time, to help demonstrate your growth, include a link to this discussion: Special:PermanentLink/641027206. — xaosflux ^Talk 02:09, 5 January 2015 (UTC)

Dealing with increasing numbers of POV vandals, especially on terrorism related articles. My reports have resulted in quite a few bans recently, looking for ways to speed up damage cleanup. Legacypac (talk) 05:52, 5 January 2015 (UTC)

 Not done You seem to have had issues with edit warring in the recent past. Furthermore, looking at the edits you have undone over the past month, I see very few where rollback would be applicable. Reverting banned users is acceptable use, but mind you can use Twinkle to accomplish the same task. This decline is nothing personal, I just don't think you'll have much use for it given the controversial subjects you work, where many of the reverts would seemingly be expected to have an informative edit summary. Thanks for your understanding. — MusikAnimal ^talk 16:47, 5 January 2015 (UTC)

I have no issues with edit warring other then to deal with edit warriors. I recently stated using Twinkle, and without access to this tool it is hard to tell the difference. It almost sounds like this tool works like Twinkle and there is no real difference?

As far as offense, I am tempted to take offense at being denied the tool only because when I came here I noticed DocumentError was quickly granted the tool. That's not why I came here - just happened his request was on the page. If I am not qualified to do rollbacks then I strongly object to him being given this tool because of his frequent and outrageous personal attacks against me and general incompetince as an editor who can't see past his nationalist views and refuses to accurately read and reflect sources. While I generally ignore his crap I feel strongly he should not even be allowed to edit here at all, and certainly not with any extra rights. Legacypac (talk) 20:41, 5 January 2015 (UTC)
