I have been reverting vandalism since I created my account.

:{{u|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.

Hi! Though I started out doing grammar fixes, over the past 2 weeks, I've been using ] and ] to revert any vandalism seen on ]. It's understandable if you'd like to impose the hard and fast rule of 1-month experience, but I've made almost 300 edits related to vandalism. I always leave a message for the editor and undo my revert in cases where I question my decision in hindsight and would rather have another pair of eyes look at the edit(s).

::{{not done}} Thank you for your efforts in fighting vandalism, however, you are not doing it correctly. You are not warning users after reverting them, which in effect allows them to get away with the vandalism you reverted. We generally block vandals after a series of four escalating warnings have been issued by recent changes patrollers. By not warning any of the vandals you revert, you're protracting the process and allowing them to commit more vandalism before they can be blocked. Please come back in a week or so and show us that you have addressed this issue and have been competently reverting and warning vandals. If you have any questions, see ].

Rollback

Sorry, unregistered users cannot be granted permissions due to technical restrictions. Please create an account in order to request user account permissions. (add request · view requests) Shortcuts Please review Misplaced Pages:Rollback before making a request. Successful applicants will usually have:
  1. At least 200 mainspace edits.
  2. At least a month of experience patrolling Special:RecentChanges.
  3. No recent history of edit warring.
  4. A track record of consistently notifying editors when reverting their edits.
The counter-vandalism training program is available if you wish to gain experience in handling vandalism.
