User:The Last Arietta

As I use navigation pop-ups, I should not have to click on a link itself when patrolling Recent changes to revert unconstructive/unhelpful edits. I also intend to use Huggle or STiki, etc. in the future. TLA 3x ♭ 04:10, 4 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

User:AllenHAcNguyen

What I did on Wikipedia is I would have rollback rights to rollback some edits that are vandalism and would undo revision. I'm shocked with the vandal user who made edits messed up that I'm going to revert them than other rollbackers does. --Allen Talk 05:47, 4 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done. Please see the notice at the top of this page. With only 11 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. Armbrust The Homunculus 07:11, 4 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
What I learn is rollback or revert vandalism edits on Wikipedia, so I can have rights for it after I enrolled at the Counter Vandalism Unit! --Allen Talk 07:26, 4 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
AllenHAcNguyen: One of the largest issues with rollback, apart from not knowing what is good and what is bad, is inability to talk to another contributor about something they've messed up by mistake when having a different intention. You need to demonstrate thorough experience of talking to people about their first messy edits where undoing and moving on without talking was a (the worse) possibility. -- This is why rollback, which undoes multiple edits at once, requires bigger experience. It is not just about edit count. Gryllida (talk) 17:23, 5 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Gryllida: That reminds me of getting rollback rights on Wikipedia if I try to revert some edits that completely messed up and actually vandalized. --Allen Talk 17:44, 5 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Pardon my bluntness, but it is going to be nearly impossible for you to have any advanced permissions if you cannot communicate in English. Your remarks read like you are using machine translation or something, they don't make any sense. Beeblebrox (talk) 00:31, 6 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Beeblebrox: My worth English is good, it maybe right or impossible for me to have rollback rights on Wikipedia and however I'm not using translate (that's because the translate from another language to English is maybe nonsense or gibberish). What I did on Wikipedia is try revert some edits that is vandalism and fix the articles on difference above with undo revision. --Allen Talk 02:52, 7 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I'm willing to take your word that you aren't using machine translation, but your English is so poor you might as well be. Your posts are gibberish, and if you can't recognize that I can't imagine how you could be expected to recognize vandalism from other types of editing. Beeblebrox (talk) 00:20, 8 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
That's a bit harsh. While I agree with denying this request at the moment I don't think there's any reason to discourage the user from contributing. His English is rather hard to understand, but it's usually easier to read a non-native language than to speak/write it, and given quite a few examples of positive vandalism identification I'd be happy to grant the right. – Juliancolton | Talk 01:39, 8 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
@Beeblebrox: We can all appreciate good communication and even promote it, your method is just plain rude, which caught me by surprise from such a seasoned editor, not a good day for Wikipedia. Mlpearc (open channel) 17:34, 8 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Well, we can all see above where Gryllida tried to tell him in a less direct way that his communication skills were lacking, and the response was...nonsense. And then I made my first remark, which was a little more direct, and the response was "My worth English is good". In other words, complete denial of the problem, while confirming it at the same time. Of course we don't expect new editors to know all of our policies and procedures before they start out, but competence in the language actually is kind of a prerequisite, not something you will just pick up as you go along. Beeblebrox (talk) 19:02, 8 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Do ya think this could be the beginning of this users "pick up along the way" ? so let's just beat the crap out of them just in case...ignorance. Mlpearc (open channel) 20:21, 8 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Whether it's relevant to this project or not, wikiasite:community:Message wall:Lt. Allen, he's been known to be annoying, disruptive, and incognizant on various other projects. Beeble is not the only person to suspect Allen of using a translator. From what I've been told, he's been translating from Vietnamese to English. Though when I confronted him directly about where he learned to speak English, his response was "Mol, I learned English before I was born!" (@22:02:58). I also hate to be that guy, but, from scrutiny of his past requests on other projects, this is just some weird power grab. moluɐɯ 22:12, 8 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

User:ElectronicKing888

I am requesting rollback as I have been trying to fight vandalism on Wikipedia. I believe that rollback will make this task much easier. I also intend to use Huggle to revert vandalism on Wikipedia. ElectronicKing888 (talk) 16:16, 4 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done - your level of experience is really quite borderline IMO, and I see you have some notices on your talk page about misidentifying vandalism, which gives me further pause. A few more weeks and I think you'll be there. If another admin disagrees, they can feel free to grant the right. – Juliancolton | Talk 17:57, 5 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

User:Septate

I am requesting rollback because it is a proper tool to fight vandalism. It will be extremely helpful for me.Septate (talk) 09:05, 5 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done - I see minimal experience with vandalism reversions, and you've been blocked fairly recently for edit warring. I'd like to see some evidence that you understand the relevant policies. – Juliancolton | Talk 17:59, 5 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

User:Rovine

I wish to use this privilege to revert obvious vandalism and non-constructive edits made to Wikipedia. I have been a wikipedia user for a long time (more than some others) and my favourite page is Recent Changes, giving me this right will make my job a lot easier as I believe even a second wasted can't be given back Rovinemessage 20:43, 5 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done You have had an account for quite a while, but you have only made 25 edits to actual articles. I can't say I get why you have made nearly five times as many user talk edits as you have article edits but as rollback is a content tool and you demonstrably have very, very little experience with content this request is denied. Beeblebrox (talk) 20:49, 5 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Those 25 edits were reverts done to articles and I know that I have made those five times more user talk edits as welcoming users and warning users for content blanking and vandalism. Rovinemessage 20:55, 5 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Welcoming new users is a fine thing to be doing, but again, this is a content tool and you do not have much experience with content. Content is actually the purpose of this website, not designing fancy user pages. Beeblebrox (talk) 21:05, 5 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think I can convince you, not yet with my current contributions. PS:I'm a badboy (programmer) so I always make the best of my skills, including designing a fabulous user page.Rovinemessage 21:12, 5 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

User:Quibilia

I understand I have a lack of edits as compared to the suggestion on this page, but I feel that with the rollback right, I may be capable of better fighting vandalism when I see it. I do not seek out vandalized pages, but nor do I ignore them when I come across them; my low number of edits is due in part to simply not seeing a page to which I could greatly contribute. I wish to become a better contributor to Wikipedia. With the rollback right, I could more easily become an accomplished editor, as well as a better force in fighting vandalism. I am Quibilia. (talk) 23:20, 5 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done Rollback is generally the easiest of all user rights to get, but you need to have a bit more than 23 article edits. Like, about ten times that amount. The good news is that it is entirely possible to revert vandalism without rollback, by either simply editing it out or using the "undo" button, and doing some work that way would be exactly the sort of thing that would make an admin comfortable with giving you rollback rights. Beeblebrox (talk) 00:36, 6 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

User:Faux Ville

The reason for asking for rights is because I want to fight vandalism on Wikipedia. I've had problems with vandalism on my pages with people promoting their material, and adding unsourced material that is false. I have over 200 mainspace edits and I think I'm eligible. Faux Ville (talk)
 Not done No edit summaries or apparent history demonstrating a clear understanding of what constitutes vandalism. You also seem to edit exclusively on mobile devices. I don't think rollback is available in the mobile interface, and using the desktop version on mobile is discouraged as it may easy to accidentally tap the rollback link. Take a moment to read Wikipedia:Rollback and if that's what you would like to do, you can then check out the Counter Vandalism Unit to learn more. — MusikAnimal talk 18:03, 6 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
@MusikAnimal: Without commenting on the merits of the rest of your decline I have to say that considering what platform a user is editing from as a factor in granting permissions seems highly inappropriate and grossly unfair. While you are correct that the (terrible) mobile version of WP does not support any advanced permissions or scripts, there is nothing wrong with using the desktop version on a mobile device, which I have been doing almost exclusively for more than three years now without problems. Beeblebrox (talk) 19:59, 6 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
@Beeblebrox: I suppose it is wrong to discourage use of the desktop view on a mobile device. I was speaking from my own experience on how this practice can have real consequences when working with more powerful tools such as rollback. I do want to make it clear that the platform used was not a true deciding factor for me and I apologize if I made it seem otherwise. — MusikAnimal talk 20:43, 6 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
So long as it was not actually a deciding factor, that's fair enough. And I suppose I should note that I do use a script that blocks rollback links in watchlists and page histories because it is possible to click them by accident. Beeblebrox (talk) 21:27, 6 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I'm here since July 2013, I have rollback in Arabic wikipedia and wikidata, I think I have a good experience in the removal of vandalism, and I intend to use Huggle 3 here (I already use it in ar.w), with my regards MohamedTalk 20:38, 7 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
notdone - while having rollback elsewhere does help your case, we need to see some evidence of local competence. A vast majority of your 150-ish edits are merely welcoming new users in the past few hours, with sporadic activity since 2013. Please spend a bit more time becoming established on this wiki and ask again after you've accumulated a few hundred worthwhile contributions, including multiple instances of anti-vandalism work. Also, unrelated, but please do consider toning down your signature a bit. Sorry, – Juliancolton | Talk 21:27, 7 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you very much, I'll try to be more active here MohamedTalk 21:47, 7 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't necessarily mean for you to make a mad dash for edits and come back in 36 hours, but here we are I suppose. :) I'll defer to another admin here—your eagerness gives me some pause, and editcount notwithstanding, you've still only been editing for three days.
