- Automated comment This user has had 1 request for rollback declined in the past 90 days ([1]). — MusikBot talk 08:30, 4 August 2019 (UTC)
- @Viztor: Have you consulted with TonyBallioni, who processed your last request? – Juliancolton | Talk 02:59, 8 August 2019 (UTC)
- No objection to any administrator reassessing. I haven't followed their activities. TonyBallioni (talk) 21:58, 9 August 2019 (UTC)
- Not done, after thinking about this for a while. You've made precious few reverts of disruptive editing since your last request, so it's nearly impossible to judge your progress. Taken together with poor edit summary usage, long periods of inactivity on enwiki, and at least one recent instance of edit warring, it leaves me unable to grant your request at this time. – Juliancolton | Talk 15:06, 12 August 2019 (UTC)
- @Juliancolton: Where have I engaged in edit warring? viz ✦ 02:50, 13 August 2019 (UTC)

- I want to deal with vandalism that occurs on several pages I have on my watchlist. I worked hard with other users on those articles and other IPs vandalise them multiple times; therefore, it prevents me from reverting each edit. De88 (talk) 07:30, 7 August 2019 (UTC)
- @De88: Could you provide some examples of blatant vandalism you've reverted, and which you believe would have been candidates for use of the rollback tool? And just out of curiosity, why did you blank this message on your talk page moments after posting your request here? – Juliancolton | Talk 03:20, 8 August 2019 (UTC)
- Not done for lack of anti-vandalism experience, and absence of attention after several days. – Juliancolton | Talk 15:11, 12 August 2019 (UTC)

- I have been reverting a lot of vandal lately and would like to get this feature in order to keep up with high speed vandals/LTA. Taumata994 (talk) 00:34, 8 August 2019 (UTC)
- @Taumata994: It generally isn't necessary to engage disruptive editors in "high speed" revert wars like this, in which you made 30 reverts inside of 20 minutes. That serves no purpose other than to clog up page histories and watchlists – an admin came along almost immediately to deal with the situation. In the future, please don't just keep mashing the revert button while an admin reviews the RFPP/AIV request. Also, I'm a little curious about why you announced a wikibreak, then retirement, then semi-retirement all in one evening, then took it all back the next day. – Juliancolton | Talk 03:33, 8 August 2019 (UTC)
- Not done per above and lack of any reassurances. – Juliancolton | Talk 15:09, 12 August 2019 (UTC)

I want the rollback precisely because I want to use STiki, I have an idea when use rollback. Actully i'm interest to more Work using rollback for Vandalism and disruptive edit. i have lot work using rollback for protected. if i get, Having this user's rights will be a lot easier for me to work with and I through extend the rollback safe from a lot of other Vandalism edits. Thanks--Nahal(T) 10:21, 8 August 2019 (UTC)
- Not done for now. While I thank you for volunteering to help in this capacity, I'm not convinced your knowledge of policy is as strong as it should be. Your CSD nominations are frequently declined, and while you have plenty of reverts in your contribution history, it's hard to find many that dealt with the sort of disruptive editing for which rollback is intended. Indeed, the first revert I randomly clicked on seemed to be in error and without an appropriate edit summary. Please work on explaining your reasons for undoing edits made in good-faith. – Juliancolton | Talk 21:25, 13 August 2019 (UTC)

- Hello. I am requesting the rollback tool so that I can use Huggle and be able to revert multiple edits so that I can more easily revert multiple edits of vandalism. AnUnnamedUser (open talk page) 04:45, 9 August 2019 (UTC)

- I have been patrolling Recent Changes for some time, and find it difficult to deal with vandalism when it occurs over multiple edits, preventing me from easily dealing with it. I also want Rollback so I can fix the pages which I have worked on for some time, but are occasionally vandalized. Mgasparin (talk) 07:41, 11 August 2019 (UTC)

- I've been using Twinkle to undo vandalism for a couple months, and I'd like to use Huggle to do the same kind of editing. —Aranya (talk) 01:14, 13 August 2019 (UTC)
