Wikipedia:Requests for permissions/Rollback

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Rollback

Hi, I have been on Wikipedia for over a year and have made over 1k edits. I mostly edit and monitor history articles. Several articles are sometimes disrupted knowingly or unknowingly by editors for which I have to revert. Having Rollback right would make the patrolling work easier and help to combat vandalism. I am aware of most of Wikipedia polices (WP:OR,WP:NPOV,WP:RS,etc.) I have also authored few articles like Bajirao I see [1]. Mohammad Umar Ali (talk) 07:21, 28 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I am requesting rollback permissions as I would like to utilize tools such as Huggle, which require this permission. I have been actively patrolling recent changes using a custom filter and have consistently notified users whose edits I have reverted. Thanks, – AllCatsAreGrey (talk) 20:00, 29 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello admins, I’m respectfully requesting rollback rights so that I may contribute more efficiently to counter-vandalism work using Huggle. Patrolling recent changes is what I enjoy most on Wikipedia, and I’ve found that it’s where I can make the most impact with the time I have available. I've made 1840 edits since January. At present, I review edits by right-clicking the diff link to open changes in a new tab in Chrome and then use RedWarn to revert and warn users when appropriate. While this process works, it's time-consuming and not ideal for high-volume patrolling. Having rollback rights would allow me to use Huggle, which would significantly increase my productivity and responsiveness in handling vandalism. Earlier, I made two requests for different user rights but withdrew them after realizing that my interest lies more in patrolling and counter-vandalism than in article creation or extended content curation. That said, I have written one article and contributed to creating another recently, and I do plan to continue helping in content areas where I can. I also take direction well and am open to feedback. Thank you for considering my request. m a MANÍ1990(talk | contribs) 21:48, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I have been on wikipedia for a few years & I've made over 1600 edits on the english wikipedia, and I've made over 7700 edits on wikimedia commons. I have reverted many vandalizing edits on a varierty of articles, and I've left many notices of these reverts on their talk pages. I've also made a few pages, mostly redirects, but I've also created other articles, including List of Agriotes species, Choristostreptus, and 1854 in Mexico. Having rollback privileges would make it much more efficient for me when undoing vandalism. No matter the decision, thanks so much! -‪Fneskljvnl🪱 (Contributions, Talk) (stay silly forever) 02:38, 3 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
