Rollback

I have been reverting vandalism since I created my account. Although it appears I am a new user, I also have experience editing Wikipedia and reverting vandalism as an IP for many years (which I will not be disclosing due to security concerns). The rollback right will help me revert vandalism faster, which is why I am requesting it. PersonAccount 🐉 (talk) 20:08, 13 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

PersonAccount, to be honest, no, it doesn't appear you are a new user. Which is okay if all previous activity was without having an account and without disruption. It will take longer than for other users until the trust for manually granting permissions is there in your case. It isn't yet, to me. Unless someone else grants rollback in the next week or so, I'll decline this with a recommendation not to ask for permissions until your account is a year old. Regarding rollback in particular, Twinkle and Ultraviolet will do just fine. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 02:11, 15 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I am requesting for a Rollback right in other to help curb and prevent vandalism in English Wikipedia articles Abike25 (talk) 22:59, 17 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done You have only used rollback 4 times. Applicants generally need to have a history of patrolling Special:RecentChanges for at least a month; I looked at the other wikis that you have edits on and didn't see any use of undo there either, so am reluctant to grant this at this time. I'd recommend Twinkle for the time being. Once you have more of a track-record, feel free to re-request here or reach out to me on my talk page. --TheSandDoctor Talk 06:18, 18 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I monitor Special:RecentChanges and revert vandalism and having rollback rights would assist me in removing vandalism. Thank you. Cyrobyte (talk) 02:17, 18 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to request rollback rights to combat vandalism more efficiently. I am an experienced recent changes patroller and I understand that the rollback should be used mainly for clear cases of vandalism. I am committed to using this tool responsibly.

Hello! I've been patrolling Recent Changes for a few months now. Rollback will help my work, especially when I'm out and about and can only access the app. Cmrc23 ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ 15:28, 19 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Reason for requesting rollback rights: I have been on Wikipedia for a while now, and when my last rollback request was declined, I began to work on other sections on Wikipedia such as XFD, CSD and more. I now feel like I have a more in-depth understanding of the Wikipedia Guidelines and know what to do in specific vandalism scenarios.

I have been reverting vandalism for a while, and I often monitor the recent changes page. Rollback would help me combat vandalism easier.
Please note that I might be inactive after a few months of editing. I'm currently hyperfixated on Wikipedia and it might go away.
