As far as offense, I am tempted to take offense at being denied the tool only because when I came here I noticed DocumentError was quickly granted the tool. That's not why I came here - just happened his request was on the page. If I am not qualified to do rollbacks then I strongly object to him being given this tool because of his frequent and against me and general incompetince as an editor who can't see past his nationalist views and refuses to accurately read and reflect sources. While I generally ignore his crap I feel strongly he should not even be allowed to edit here at all, and certainly not with any extra rights. ] (]) 20:41, 5 January 2015 (UTC) As far as offense, I am tempted to take offense at being denied the tool only because when I came here I noticed DocumentError was quickly granted the tool.

Rollback

(add requestview requests)
Please familiarize yourself with Help:Reverting and Misplaced Pages:Rollback before making a request.Misuse of the feature, even if unintentional or in good faith, may give cause for it to be removed.
To make a request, please follow the instructions below:

NOTE: It is unlikely that users with fewer than 200 mainspace edits will be granted the use of this tool. Please consider enrolling at the Misplaced Pages:Counter-Vandalism Unit/Academy to learn more about handling vandalism.

  1. Fill in the form below, replacing "Reason for requesting rollback rights" with a brief reason for requesting the right. Do not make any other changes. Do not sign the request – your signature will be added automatically.
    1. If you do not see the form, go back to the page, and click "add request".
  2. Please wait for your request to be approved or denied, checking back periodically so you can respond to any queries.
  3. If you would like to withdraw your request, use the {{withdrawn}} template with ::{{withdrawn}} ~~~~
Requests that do not meet the above criteria will be delayed or removed.

Sorry, please be aware that unregistered users cannot be granted permissions due to technical restrictions. Please create an account in order to request user account permissions.

Administrator notation templates
This template should always be substituted (i.e., use {{subst:Misplaced Pages:Requests for permissions/Rollback}}).

This template is used to answer requests for permissions, especially the rollback user right.

::{{subst:RFPR|option}} ~~~~

The second (unnamed) parameter is optional. It can be omitted or used to specify the admin when marking a request as already done or the number of edits when declining due to inexperience.

 Not done. Please see the notice at the top of this page. With only {{{X}}} edits to the mainspace, I don't think you have sufficient editing experience yet. Take a moment to check out what counter-vandalism is at WP:CVU, and if you decide you'd like to get involved, you can enroll at the Counter Vandalism Academy to learn more. ::{{subst:RFPR|exp|X}} ~~~~ ::{{subst:RFPR|moreedits|X}} ~~~~
 Not done. Please see the notice at the top of this page. I see you just also applied for Pending Changes Reviewer. Let's see how you get on with that first and then we'll take another look again when you've made a few more edits. ::{{subst:RFPR|rvw}} ~~~~ ::{{subst:RFPR|alsorequestedreviewer}} ~~~~
 Not done. Please see the notice at the top of this page. This is not what Rollback is for. Take a moment to read Misplaced Pages:Rollback and if that's what you would like to do, you can then check out the Counter Vandalism Unit to learn more. ::{{subst:RFPR|nrb}} ~~~~ ::{{subst:RFPR|notrollback}} ~~~~
Shortcuts

User:DocumentError

I have more than 3500 edits and an unblemished edit history over several years. Recently I have dealt with a number of instances of promotional vandalism and it would be helpful to have rollback for those cases. I understand how Rollback works. DOCUMENTERROR 00:49, 4 January 2015 (UTC)
 Done. Beeblebrox (talk) 01:19, 4 January 2015 (UTC)

User:Makro

I would like to expand my experience on Misplaced Pages and help keep it free from vandalism and copyright infringement Makro (talk) 14:38, 4 January 2015 (UTC)

User:Acj1

I would like to help stop vandalism to Misplaced Pages! Acj1 =^.^= Say Hi To Me! 23:46, 4 January 2015 (UTC) 19:48, 4 January 2015 (UTC)
 Not done. Please see the notice at the top of this page. With only 10 edits to mainspace, I don't think you have sufficient editing experience yet. Take a moment to check out what counter-vandalism is at WP:CVU and when you have made 200 or so edits to articles you may wish to enroll at the Counter Vandalism Academy to learn more. — MusikAnimal 23:40, 4 January 2015 (UTC)
@MusikAnimal: This will be my 367 edit. Acj1 =^.^= Say Hi To Me! 23:46, 4 January 2015 (UTC)
@Acj1: We generally expect 200 edits to the mainspace, or a sufficient recent editing history clearly showing you can identify what constitutes vandalism and good-faith edits. See WP:CVU to learn more. Thank you for your interest in helping fight vandalism. — MusikAnimal 00:05, 5 January 2015 (UTC)
Can I come back when I've made enough edits??? @MusikAnimal: Thanks, Acj1 =^.^= Say Hi To Me! 00:46, 5 January 2015 (UTC)
Certainly! Just file a new request at a later time, to help demonstrate your growth, include a link to this discussion: Special:PermanentLink/641027206. — xaosflux 02:09, 5 January 2015 (UTC)

information Administrator note This users request for pending changes reviewer was declined twice in December () — MusikAnimal 16:51, 5 January 2015 (UTC)

User:Legacypac

Dealing with increasing numbers of POV vandals, especially on terrorism related articles. My reports have resulted in quite a few bans recently, looking for ways to speed up damage cleanup. Legacypac (talk) 05:52, 5 January 2015 (UTC)
 Not done You seem to have had issues with edit warring in the recent past. Furthermore, looking at the edits you have undone over the past month, I see very few where rollback would be applicable. Reverting banned users is acceptable use, but mind you can use Twinkle to accomplish the same task. This decline is nothing personal, I just don't think you'll have much use for it given the controversial subjects you work, where many of the reverts would seemingly be expected to have an informative edit summary. Thanks for your understanding. — MusikAnimal 16:47, 5 January 2015 (UTC)
I have no issues with edit warring other then to deal with edit warriors. I recently stated using Twinkle, and without access to this tool it is hard to tell the difference. It almost sounds like this tool works like Twinkle and there is no real difference?

As far as offense, I am tempted to take offense at being denied the tool only because when I came here I noticed DocumentError was quickly granted the tool. That's not why I came here - just happened his request was on the page. If I am not qualified to do rollbacks then I strongly object to him being given this tool because of his frequent and outrageous personal attacks against me and general incompetince as an editor who can't see past his nationalist views and refuses to accurately read and reflect sources. While I generally ignore his crap I feel strongly he should not even be allowed to edit here at all, and certainly not with any extra rights. Legacypac (talk) 20:41, 5 January 2015 (UTC)
