I check the Recent changes page for vandals, the right will help me quickly revert vandalism, Thanks Mohamed^Talk 06:03, 16 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

 Done - you were turned down less than a week ago, and I'm still not 100% convinced, but something tells me you'll be back every few days indefinitely if I don't get it over with now. :) Have fun. – Juliancolton | ^Talk 18:16, 16 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I have a moderately long list of articles on my watchlist, and in order to maintain them I sometimes need to revert vandalism (and occasionally weird good faith content), which often comes in the form of consecutive edits. Having rollback would make things a little faster. Thanks. -- Pingumeister^(talk) 23:01, 17 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

(Non-administrator comment) Keep in mind that rollback is only for obvious vandalism. If you're reverting anything good faith, make sure you leave a summary, either by using the undo link or by using Twinkle's "Rollback" feature. —LucasThoms 23:05, 17 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I'm interested to have rollback role and i have also reverted many articles that were vandalised, Becoming part of anti-vandalism is new role which i would love to have it and support the wikipedia to avoid much damages to articles, But having Rollback feature will help me to work faster on reverting vandalise.

(Non-administrator comment) User only has 264 to the article mainspace at the time of this post. TheMesquito^buzz 01:49, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

 Administrator note Thank you for your observation. I can assure this is something that any admin considering this request would have noted themselves. Thanks again. Beeblebrox (talk) 03:31, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Beeblebrox i'm bit confused. But the above instruction says that i must have over 400 edits in total and it didn't mention “mainspace”, How come you have granted Pingumeister rollback role? They have less edits (228) than me :/ --Prince Sulaiman ^{Talk to me} 07:25, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

No admins have made a decision yet, PrinceSulaiman. That was a non-administrator observation. -- Pingumeister^(talk) 10:09, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Pingumeister, Oh, I thought it was admin decision, Thanks for correcting me :) --Prince Sulaiman ^{Talk to me} 10:12, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done @Yngvadottir: and @GiantSnowman: made points at an ANI thread (which I did read for myself) about your inability to be trusted and your biting of new editors. Beyond that, you also said "With all due to respect i'm not concerned to defend my actions" in that same thread which is very concerning since we would be giving you new tools which have an obligation to do per WP:RBK#When_to_use_rollback. I would like to see you take some time to do constructive editing, blatant vandalism reverting, and warning the vandals before I grant such a request. -- DQ (ʞlɐʇ) 18:00, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I'm an experienced user who has an understanding of the Policies and Guidelines. I keep an eye on Recent Changes page and revert nonconstructive edits (Rovinemessage) 19:11, 18 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done You still have less than 100 edits to article space. While there is no bright line, itis generally expected that you have more than 200 before requesting new user rights. Beeblebrox (talk) 20:09, 18 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there. I am currently in the CVUA(you can find the link on my talk page) and I am requesting rollback rights to help me revert vandalism faster and to be able to use tools like STiki. Wackyike (talk) 01:15, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done You haven't reverted too much in your last 500 edits that is blatant vandalism which is what the tool is used for. You've done reverting for adding unexplained content or removal thereof, but you haven't particularly done too much vandal fighting. Also the warning issued on User talk:2602:304:6EF0:E119:B956:ED2E:19F9:3B72 is excessively harsh. At this time I'm not sure you understand the procedures and policies. -- DQ (ʞlɐʇ) 21:35, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

As my watchlist gets longer, I find I'm spending more and more time reverting vandalism. Twinkle does the trick as of now, but rollback sure will make it much faster and easier. I'd love to be able to do something about the pending changes bit as well, but I guess for the reviewer rights, I’d need more edits to the article space. So maybe I’ll request that a bit later. Thank you.  NQ  talk 07:11, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done Taking a look at your last 500 edits, I see a few vandal reverts in the past day or two, and then it goes back to the beginning of July before you were reverting blatant vandalism which is what this tool is for. I'm also concerned about your not putting a warning notice when you have semi-automated tools like twinkle to do the job. I would like to see more experience reverting vandalism before I grant rollback here. -- DQ (ʞlɐʇ) 17:24, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
