 * Major pointless. Just ask Entropy on her talk. --84.24.206.123 14:43, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

 * It would be rather hard to keep track of such requests, and public comment on them, if it was in my talkpage. I mean, for the same reason we can't do RfA's on my talkpage - that would be stupid and unprofessional. While I am not quite sure exactly how the process will work, I do believe that there should at least be a central page from which all requests originate. It can probably be more informal than a full RfA since it's a lesser responsibility...but users still need to comment etc. since rollback shouldn't be given to everyone either. Btw, Viper, please sign in. [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 14:51, 12 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Hmm. Suppose so. Last suggestion: Rename to "Rf rollback rights". Sounds more correct, to me. Request for rollback sounds like a tag for someones edits to be checked out and perhaps rv'd... --- [[Image:VipermagiSig.JPG|Ohaider!]]-- (s)talkpage 15:13, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

Suggestion
Instead of a full RFA style template, why not something like Template:Proposed RFR and then people can place comments unser that user's subheading, when a decision is made, that entry is removed, or moved to archive RT | Talk  15:53, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

What's a rollback?reanor 17:32, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Rolback is a one click revert, when you rollback, you revert all of the last contributor's edits, you do not need to confirm this action, so it is good for reverting mass vandalism (i.e. page blankings) RT | Talk  17:34, 12 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Podax, anyone...? [[Image:Maui_sig.png]] 17:36, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Yeah. &mdash;[[Image:MaySig.png]] Warw/Wick 17:37, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
 * No, dosn't work for deltions, and I'm refraining from saying his name, as it may encorage his "reputation" RT | <font color="Black">Talk</B>  17:38, 12 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Anyone can revert page moves via the Move Log, it's not a hard job for an admin to delete leftover pages. No rollbacking needed. But having some users with rollback capabilities would be great for a lot of other vandals. We have a bunch of users who end up reverting lots of vandalism anyway, giving them a bit of extra tools for that would be great. Not much damage that can be done with rollback, so no need to worry about then going overboard with the power; but the ability to revert multiple edits in one shot, quite useful.
 * I'm all for this, a "rollback" user group I suppose? I would probably nominate users I've seen reverting a lot; after every major vandalism spree, you almost always see two or three users in RC doing all the work. Nominating users like that seems like a good plan. --[[image:GEO-logo.png]]<font color="#237d00"> Jïörüjï Ðērākō.> <font color="#237d00">.cнаt^  20:37, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
 * That seems like a good plan. We'll create a team of backrollers. [[Image:Felix_Omni_Signature.png]] 20:39, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
