Can someone grant me rollback when they have the chance? Realized I forgot to ask for it after turning in the tools, and while I'm not around that much, when I am I prefer it to Twinkle. TonyBallioni (talk) 21:12, 22 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. Requesting rollback rights to more swiftly correct vandalism and other clearly improper edits. I have dealt with a variety of these over time, with demonstrated knowledge of how to warn and/or welcome with specific guidance tailored to the problematic edit in each case. Thank you.

 Not done I noticed you make a handful of edits, and then drop off for months at a time. While I appreciate your enthusiasm, I'd like to see you spend at least a month consistently patrolling RecentChanges (Twinkle & Ultraviolet can help with that) before reapplying. Also, please ensure that you are always warning editors when you revert their edits. Thanks, Fastily 11:21, 23 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

As someone who constantly reverts disruptive editors and reports vandals to WP:AIV almost daily, I would greatly appreciate access to rollback permissions to facilitate my work. Skitash (talk) 20:13, 23 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I see that you are failing to consistently warn editors when you revert their edits (e.g. 1, 2, 3). Why? It's important to leave a notification for every revert you make. Are you aware that we have tools such as Twinkle or Ultraviolet that make this extremely easy? -Fastily 21:58, 23 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I apologize for not consistently warning editors when reverting their edits. This was primarily the case with IP hoppers, as warnings seemed redundant given that IPs keep changing. For instance, instead of warning this IP I believed to be a WP:LOUTSOCK of Derklnin (whom I had already warned), I opted to request protection for the page at WP:RPPI to secure the article against long-term IP vandalism instead. Moving forward, I will make sure to issue a warning for every IP and registered user I revert. Skitash (talk) 22:51, 23 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I had rollback on trial that expired about a year ago. My request to renew it was denied due to inactivity. I want to to request it again to gain access to WP:UV and WP:HUGGLE. Thanks. C F A 💬 21:36, 23 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done When I declined your previous request, I asked you to spend a month actively patrolling RecentChanges. Upon reviewing your contributions, I found almost no reverts in the interim period. I see you made a handful of reverts today, however I'm specifically looking for experience acquired over time, not during a single day. Also, please ensure that you are consistently warning editors when you revert their edits. -Fastily 21:58, 23 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Fastily: I have been patrolling RecentChanges for about a month, not only today. See my undo log. I assumed this would be enough. C F A 💬 22:17, 23 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Please re-read my previous decline, I asked you to patrol consistently and actively. You're reverting vandalism sporadically for a day and then dropping off for weeks at a time. -Fastily 22:48, 23 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, sounds good. I'll start patrolling more consistently. Thanks. C F A 💬 01:05, 24 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
