+Rollbacker

User has consistently been undoing vandalism for some time and I believe being able to revert vandalism would be helpful in anti-vandalism efforts. It would also make things easier and encourage continued action along the same line. -- Adrignola talk contribs 13:18, 4 February 2010 (UTC)[]

I don't object to a promotion, but perhaps someone can explain how I should exercise my new powers (whatever they are!). Recent Runes (talk) 17:16, 4 February 2010 (UTC)[]
Rollbacker is very straightforward: you will have a single extra control. When you are looking at the most recent edit of a page, you will have a control [Rollback] which undoes all the most recent contributions by the most recent single editor in one click. E.g. edits by a, c, a, b, a, d, a, a, a, click once to remove the top three edits by a and return to d's last edit. This is clearly handy in cases of repeated vandalism of a single page, but is also set up so that you can go to a vandal's contributions page, and just click on everything he has contributed to revert it all. Note that there is a limit of 20 reversions per minute; this is a bit low, I've brushed up against it a few times. Chazz (talk) 17:33, 4 February 2010 (UTC)[]

Done. Recent Runes is a highly active "undoer", Rollback makes it easier and they've been around long enough to know what they are doing! QU TalkQu 00:15, 8 February 2010 (UTC)[]
