== CIA391's removal/merger proposal  ==


==Request: [[User:Spirit-of-HALO|Spirit-of-HALO]]==
[[Halopedia:Projects/Overall#Step_2_Policies_and_Rules|There has been a proposal]] to remove this usergroup (and rank) and maintain only the Administration Team and the Patrollers. Honestly, I don't see much need for such usergroup since it's just skipping that one extra step to undo a revision to a page. I do not think the removal of such group would create any significant impact on its members as [https://www.halopedia.org/index.php?title=Special:ListUsers&group=rollbacker most of the them are inactive].
I figured out the rollback rights by [[User:HaloDude|HaloDude]] and [[User:CommanderTony|CommanderTony]] just recently. I wanted it because recently a couple of pages have been completely vandalized and couldn't do a thing about it (because the whole pages were practically deleted). And also I would like to better Halopedia from, you know, the vandalizes that come here and messes up stuff. Even though I'm just a User, I think I need to learn a lot more about Halopedia. Thank-you and have a nice day.[[Image:PO3.jpg|20px]] [[User:Spirit-of-HALO|'''<font color="Red">Spirit-of-HALO</font>''']]

I recently heard about Rollback rights from one of the Admins. I have experienced vandalism before and realise how frustrating it must be for a site like this to be constantly under the pressure of vandalism by people who have nothing better to do. I hope that if given rollback rights I will be able to by my small contribution decrease the amount of vandalism on this site. This site is the expert on everything Halo-related, and to reduce vandalism here would be a great honour.

I've been here since early February '07 and was a member of the now deleted Anti-Vandal Coalition. I have the edits required. I've helped take down quite a bit of vandals, mostly forwarding info to the admins. I also helped take down the vandal Uncivilgoth666 by forwarding information. (such warnings are evident in my contributes). However, my reverting of vandalism is quite bare, due to the time between forwarding of the info, and going to undo it it had already been done. I helped take down a lot of vandals, but I suppose that wouldn't count without "reverting" of vandalism. Might as well try. {{Signature5/Grievous797}}

I have failed on my recent request for rollback not to long ago and was wondering if I can give it a try once more. Since the time I've asked, I think Ive gotten use to, well, at least trying to revert edits or just unneeded edits made by users or banned users. During that time, its beed hard trying to "manualy" revert edits. I have also gave feed back to other Administrators about vandalism on articles or other such subjects. Thank-you for your time.

== Request: [[User:Subtank|Subtank]] ==
 
Dear Administration Team,
 
Request for Rollback.
 
I've been here since early September '07 and started off by making corrections on grammar and spelling. I have the edits required, approximately over 1400 in total ([[Special:Editcount/User:Subtank|1000+ of Main Page Edits]]) as I write this request. I've contributed by making several articles to the wiki as well as fixing the articles' quality. I've helped take down very few vandals, (In general those who spammed articles and created multiple account, otherwise known as sock-puppeting). Having rollback rights would greatly assist me in combating vandals as well as helping me in repairing broken articles.
 
Thank you for your time and have a nice day/night.[[User:Subtank|H-107 Subtle Tank]] 17:47, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

I have been among the dedicated members of Halopedia for over three months now.  In those three months, I've worked hard to try and make Halopedia a better place in my own way; especially reverting bad edits.  I've had to make do with the normal tools provided to the average editor, and although I have figured out how to revert multiple edits by a user, the process is very slow and inefficient.  I believe, if I had rollback, I could be faster and more effective in fighting vandalism.  As I always have, I only ask for this in hopes of improving Halopedia and all of its articles.  If it helps any, I have gone through my contributions and pulled out 13 of my reverts and compiled them in a list, which can be found [[User:Stigma-231#Can has Rollback?|here]].  I have the differences included, as well as the previous editor' special contributions, in most occasions.  I know I have the required number of edits; the [[Special:Editcount/Stigma-231|editcount]] doesn't lie.  If there are any questions or concerns or anything, feel free to ask me; I will be happy to comply if it helps solidify my chances of getting rollback.  I sincerely thank you for your time, the administration team of Halopedia, and I eagerly await a response. -[[User:Stigma-231|'''<font color="steelblue">Stigma-231</font>''']][[Image:1213513093 Halo2emblem.ashxv2.jpg|16px]]·†<small><font color="royalblue">i used to rule the world</font></small>†·<sup><nowiki>[</nowiki>[[User talk:Stigma-231|<font color="PurwaBlue">Talk</font>]]<nowiki>]</nowiki></sup><sub><nowiki>[</nowiki>[[Special:Contributions/Stigma-231|<font color="PurwaBlue">Work</font>]]<nowiki>]</nowiki></sub> 02:30, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

==Request 3: [[User:Spirit-of-HALO|Spirit-of-HALO]] ==
 
I have made over 2,000 edits to Halopedia and contributed in many ways, helping users, and restoring back edits that have been "impassible" or unacceptable. During my last 2 request, I have failed to pass, but, now I'm ready. I have seen a few articles that have been completely deleted such as [[Halo 3]] where I contacted an Administrator to restore it back, as for me, it would taken a lot to restore back "manually", another page [[Maria-062]] was also deleted and did the same as I did last time, Ive also corrected vandalism on the Halo 3 skull "I Would Have Been Your Daddy" by deleting the "added numbers" to confuse the users. I also increased my time in editing to fight and take out vandalism, such as restoring back information or "Tool boxes" that have been taken out. I've been efficient enough to contribute a lot, but a little slow when I don't have roll back rights, I ask permission to have the rights to better Halopedia. Thank-you for your time.

*This might not be to my business, but in reference to your recent contribution, none of them has particularly emphasize on undoing vandalisms. It really makes me think did you made the 2000 edits just to get a rollback right? And really, you should remove that sniper rifle gif.

Look, I may not have the 1000 edits required (rather 760 at the time of typing this), but I do fall into the other category of being an admin on another wiki. I'm an admin at [[w:c:unhalo|Gruntipedia]] and also an admin at the dead [[w:c:bomberman|Bomberman Wiki]], even though that's currently ran by a sadistic admin whom of which I have no control over.
Anyway, back to the topic:
I want rollback rights because I spend most of my IRC time in #cvn-wikia-halo. I check it every 20 minutes when I'm on the computer, and scout out vandalism. When I go to revert said vandalism, I have to use the undo button, which is extremely slow and can be edit conflicted.
Maybe if I had rollback I wouldn't need to worry about the whole taking too long or edit conflict things.

== Request by [[User:Dark Neptune|Dark Neptune]] ==
I have recently got a 1000 edits award to remind me I have a thousand edits since I have join Halopedia about 8 months ago. The last couple of months I wanted to make this request, but I do not have a 1000 edits yet as a requirement. Some of my edits were to revert Spam-edits or unwanted pages, but however considering the fact that Edit Conflicts are inevitable, this cleanup jobs are most of the time rather annoying. So if I had a Rollback Right, it would make my job easier. Thanks!
 
== Request:[[User:forgottenlord]] ==
 
Not sure if I should be granted this.  My countervandalism work has been fairly minimal but I have achieved the 1000 edit requirement so I thought I might as well ask.  --[[User:Forgottenlord|forgottenlord]] 20:34, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

CIA391's removal/merger proposal[edit]

There has been a proposal to remove this usergroup (and rank) and maintain only the Administration Team and the Patrollers. Honestly, I don't see much need for such usergroup since it's just skipping that one extra step to undo a revision to a page. I do not think the removal of such group would create any significant impact on its members as most of the them are inactive.
