Rollback

User:Wiiformii

Hello! For about the past month, I've been patrolling recent changes and have gotten to know Ultraviolet well as I consistently warn users who make unconstructive and bad-faith edits. I am requesting rollback rights to further enhance my patrolling by using tools such as AntiVandal which will speed up the process greatly and Huggle which is a helpful tool to have to combat vandalism. Rollback also makes my reverts faster and more efficient allowing me to respond faster and better. Wiiformii (talk) 15:00, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I see that you are failing to consistently warn editors when you revert their edits (e.g. 1, 2, 3). Why? Are you aware that we have tools such as Twinkle or Ultraviolet that make this extremely easy? -Fastily 00:42, 4 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Fastily Hello, these edits were mistakes on my part, although the large majority of the rest of my reverts come with warnings using Ultraviolet (e.g. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5) Thank you for bringing it to my attention and I will make sure to appropriately warn users in the future.

Please ensure that you are always leaving warnings. I can't stress enough the importance of not biting the newcomers; if you find yourself reverting good faith edits, then it's especially important to notify the editor. If you don't want to leave a template warning, that's completely fine, but you do need to leave a talk page message explaining why you reverted the edit. Moving forward, could you please make a promise to leave warnings/notifications for every revert? -Fastily 21:03, 4 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I understand. I promise I will always leave warnings in good faith or not. Thank you for letting me know. Wiiformii (talk) 21:24, 4 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Great, thanks for confirming  Done -Fastily 00:52, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! I revert vandalism quite frequently and I would like rollback rights so I can use the AntiVandal tool to make the process faster. CGP05 (talk) 02:34, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry about that. I try to warn the majority of editors that vandalize. I will ensure that I warn every time from now on. CGP05 (talk) 13:45, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If you don't want to leave a template warning, that's completely fine, but you do need to leave a talk page message explaining why you reverted the edit. I note that again, you've failed to notify an editor post revert even after you promised to do so yesterday. Anyways, upon further review, I'm not seeing enough consistent counter-vandalism work to determine whether you'll be able to use the tool appropriately. I also see that you've made a total of zero reports to AIV, which is an important stop for any serious counter-vandalism patroller. Please review my feedback, and if you're still interested in the tool, then please spend at least a month actively patrolling before reapplying. As such, closing as  Not done -Fastily 06:01, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
