I'm requesting Rollback rights, having recently passed the 2000 total edit mark. An obvious reason why i would like Rollback rights is to help revert vandalism and/or uneccesary edits.

 * Agreed, you are low on mainspace edits. However, as there is not a specific number of mainspace edits required, I'm going to set it at 150, and geant them to you. -- DEMON SPAWN  ED  03:16, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

Firstly, 150 edits is not enough--I'll ask ED to change the policy to something moar reasonable. Secondly, the plus sign next to edit is there for a reason. When you use that, it properly formats new sections, since you are apparently incapable of doing so yourself--a blank line goes between the == Blahblahblah == and the rest of the message. -- NOTASTAFF  GPT ( talk )( eating ) 03:16, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

Request: Sgt.johnson
I hit the 1,000 mark about a week ago. In vandal fighting, I have experienced problems reverting the edits before the final edit made by that user/IP. Usually, vandals make 2 edits to pages making it hard for me or other users to fully revert thier edits. And so, that is why I am requesting rollback rights. I have been fighting vandals for a while because I just hate it when people think they can mess up what others have been working so hard on. <font color="Red">The Sarge  <font color="Gold">Comm <font color="Red">CSV 02:10, 22 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Firstly, the history of a page can be used to revert edits by multiple editors. I could revert this page to it's first revision rather easily, without the use of rollback or sysop tools.


 * Secondly, I'm a little concerned with your use of ordinary undo, including this reversion in violation of policy. This page blanking after a content dispute also worries me.


 * After taking that into consideration, and your editcount, I think this request should be denied for now. Come back when you have some more mainspace edits, and have demonstrated you know how to appropriately use normal editing tools. -- Manticore  [[Image:Fleet Admiral.jpg|20px|Manticore is a Halopedia administrator.]] Talk 13:40, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

Even though it has been a very few number of days since my first application, I feel that I am ready for the privilege of rollback. I have properly learned how to use editing tools since then and I have long since settled my issues that were referenced in the previous application. I have increased my edit count and I have significantly fought vandalism. Therefore, I request rollback rights for the second time.

 * "I have properly learned how to use editing tools". No you haven't. Case in point: . Instead of using the history to revert, you've used undo. What are you doing changing his userpage anyway? If he wants to blank it, that's his right. -- Manticore  [[Image:Fleet Admiral.jpg|20px|Manticore is a Halopedia administrator.]] Talk 07:04, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

You should only use undo for reverting one revision that recent, otherwise use the history. I don't have the time to review every single edit either of you have made, but Simon doesn't have a history of going against policy or blanking articles like you do. Request denied. -- Manticore   Talk 15:38, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

 * Usergroup ranks are irrelevant, and it has been less than a week since you last applied. You seem to end each unsuccessful application with "I don't need rollback", something you later strike out before applying again. Perhaps now that you have learnt how to revert using the history you can put that into practice a bit before applying again. -- Manticore  [[Image:Fleet Admiral.jpg|20px|Manticore is a Halopedia administrator.]] Talk 05:56, 17 November 2007 (UTC)


 * I don't think there's anything extraordinary about the majority of our Rollback-ers, and I don't think there's anything particularly stellar about AJ. His administratorship at ACW was because ACW was inactive and he petioned to staff for administratorship, and UNSCOH rank is not particularly weighty in determination of this. While at our current poor standard for Rollback-ers, AJ is somewhat qualified, I think that the standard needs to be raised; there's nothing wrong on AJ's behalf, just the par at which we grade users.

 * Why is AJ getting punished because you don't like the system? And how on earth can you say that AJ is "not particularly stellar"? Just look at his contributions in comparison to the other people who have gotten rollback. And Manticore, stop denying him rollback because you don't like him and/or he made a mistake when he was new. How is it people with around 1,000 edits are getting Rollback, but AJ, who has more then twice that amount isn't? Tesfan 23:56, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

I havent been at Halopedia that long (I joined in late August) but I feel I deserve rollback rights because I have fought vandalism in the past and have had to use the puny (undo) button.
