Hi there! Requesting rollback rights to be able to use different tools for reverting vandalism. I'm open to any questions or feedback on my editing and counter-vandalism actions. Cheers. [[User:Rkieferbaum|Rkieferbaum]] ([[User talk:Rkieferbaum|talk]]) 11:34, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
I would like rollback rights to make it easier for me to revert multiple vandalized edits done by a single user. Prior to this I reverted manually which was pretty time consuming, but I recently tried out a few tools (Twinkle and RW), and while I do like them, they do take a while to load up and I'd much prefer to get things done in a single click.
:I see that you are failing to consistently [[Wikipedia:Template index/User talk namespace|warn]] editors when you revert their edits. Why? It's important to leave a notification for every revert you make. Are you aware that we have tools such as [[Wikipedia:Twinkle|Twinkle]] or [[Wikipedia:Ultraviolet|Ultraviolet]] that make this ''extremely'' easy? -[[User talk:Fastily|<span style="font-family:'Trebuchet MS';color:Indigo;font-weight:bold;font-variant-caps:small-caps;font-size:120%;">Fastily</span>]] 06:21, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
::{{re|Fastily}} hi there. It's true that I seldom warn IP users that don't edit on a regular basis. I just feel like no one is going to see that warning and it might be confusing for other users from that IP. This might be a mistake on my part and I'll gladly fix it. You'll see that, with registered users, I've warned them 100% of the time or very close to that. Thanks for your time.

:::Please ensure that you are ''always'' leaving warnings. I can't stress enough the importance of ''not'' [[Wikipedia:Please do not bite the newcomers|biting the newcomers]]; if you find yourself reverting [[Wikipedia:Assume good faith|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? -[[User talk:Fastily|<span style="font-family:'Trebuchet MS';color:Indigo;font-weight:bold;font-variant-caps:small-caps;font-size:120%;">Fastily</span>]] 10:09, 13 July 2024 (UTC)

I would be using this feature to revert clear vandalism (eg. spam, advertising, disruptive). If it's subtle or unintentional (eg. good faith edits) I would probably resort to leaving a handwritten message so as to not confuse the user.
*{{rfplinks|1=}}

Hi! I've been fighting vandalism for a while now and would like to use some other tools, like [[WP:HUGGLE]] to do so more efficiently. I've grown to have a good understanding of how to fight vandalism, including [[WP:RPPI]] and [[WP:AIV]].
I would also be interested in exploring other tools that require rollback rights to use. (such as Huggle)

::{{reply to|Fastily}} Regarding the first one, I should have placed a {{tl|uw-vandalism2}} (or level 1) on their user page looking back at it. In the moment though I was a bit tired and under the impression that the person who did the edit would surely know it would get reverted so I didn't think to warn them. Second one I could have done better too. Fourth one was pretty much decision fatigue (appears they did not know they were editing within a template, I tried looking for an appropriate message to leave on their talk page but couldn't find one so I just gave up).</br>Situations like the first two don't commonly occur, I know how I would deal with them now but I must have slipped up somehow.</br>But yeah I'll be sure to warn others when I can, and if I don't know how I could warn them, I would simply not to revert them to begin with and let another person deal with it.

::{{reply to|Fastily}} Sure. The first edit is related to an (at that time) unconfirmed sports transaction. At that time, I couldn't find the appropriate warning to give (which in this case should have been a uw-sportstrans), and I quickly moved on to another edit. The remaining three are caused by me closing a tab too early while the RedWarn tool is in the middle of warning a user. In the future, I will make sure that I warn users appropriately. --[[User:Fehufanga|*Fehufangą]] ♮ [[User talk:Fehufanga|✉ Talk page]] ♮ 23:43, 14 February 2022 (UTC)

I usually patrol pages and check if there is vandalism, reverting vandalism sometimes easy when the vandal edits are 1 or 2, but it becomes very hard and take too much time to revert vandalism one by one when there is too much edits, with rollback feature I can revert the vandalism easily.

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 10:09, 13 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Great, thanks for confirming. Could you please now go some RC patrol in which you demonstrate how you will be notifying all users? -Fastily 03:17, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
