:Most of what I do is reversion of bad edits, whether vandalism or POV or something else. I use Twinkle at the moment, and it has the annoying habit of cutting out mid-send and truncating articles (eg: ). ] (]) 08:30, 10 January 2008 (UTC) |

*I agree. Rollback should not be used for content removal that is disputed. I am minded not to approve at this time, without prejudice to re-application at a later date. <small><span style="border:1px solid #0000ff;padding:1px;">] : ] </span></small> 09:34, 10 January 2008 (UTC) |

:To be fair, his Twinkle reverts all have reasonable edit summaries. In most cases, rollback would have been wrong, though. Can't say whether the user would use rollback instead of Twinkle-with-good-edit-summary for non-vandal reverts. ] (]) 09:38, 10 January 2008 (UTC) |

::Its very early in their wiki-career (600 odd edits) to really know how they would react and the evidence is that they don't quite understand the reasons why rollback use is so restricted so. There is no reason the next application will not succeed if they stop rolling back content with TW. ] <sup>'']''</sup> 09:47, 10 January 2008 (UTC) |

:::That's the problem. We should have had policy answers to that (and other outstanding issues) prior to launching this process. ] 11:05, 10 January 2008 (UTC) |

::::I'm not sure of that. This seems a good example of common sense working. Admin S isn't sure, seeks further comments and admins W and P weigh in and confirm doubts. Request not actioned. No doubt we will develop as we go along - in 20 years of working within a system that constantly reinvents itself I have yet to see a single example of something new following exactly along the predicted lines. Perhaps this should be better discussed at talk but I need to go to work and its probably not fair on the user to use this as a case in point to argue through the pros and cons of non-admin Rollback ] <sup>'']''</sup> 11:21, 10 January 2008 (UTC) |

:::::I'm sorry - maybe I'm being stupid but I'm afraid I don't understand the point you are making. Perhaps you can take this to talk as I'm going to work as soon as I save this edit and won't be able to look at this again for several hours. ] <sup>'']''</sup> 11:36, 10 January 2008 (UTC) |

:Okay, this request would be granted but for a current technical issue. No real need for the user to change their name, as e-mail address accounts are permitted under a grandfathered policy, and it seems silly to force a name change because of a bug.
