From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

My requests to gain rollback permission were denied twice. I don't really need special privilege that comes with this permission. I just want to be able to use Huggle.

The first denial is fine for me since the reason for request is not appropriate. Even though I think it is useful since one possible product of research can be a tool that will make a vandalism detection better.

The second denial is because I don't put vandalism warning in talk page of the vandals. Different views, if I am a real vandal, I don't care what they put in my talk page. I just try to create as much damage as I can. Real reasons I don't put comment on talk page are 1) MWT, the current tool I am using, requires extra step if I want to put comment and it is rather slow. 2) I don't think vandals care. However, an admin said no, I have to put that warning to provide a way to trace the activities. Who will trace the activities? Fixing these pages consumes time of a lot of dedicated people already. Just changing IP or user name, the trace is all meaningless.

I try to understand the admins, screening people is also hard just like detecting vandalism. But they should also understand that when one with the willingness to help is slapped like this, it's just gone.

I will not request for that stupid rollback permission again. I will just use Wikipedia. I will occasionally do well-intended fixings in slow traditionally way. Leaving special channels and permissions to those who can abuse their power.
