Question

How do you revert people's edits that quickly? I want to know, since I want to be able to revert vandalism more efficiently. Cheers! // 🌶️Jalapeño🌶️ Don't click this link! 08:05, 23 May 2023 (UTC)

@Jalapeño: Hi Jalapeño! I usually patrol Special:RecentChanges and Special:AbuseLog and use Twinkle to do the reverts. I hope this answers your question. Cheers!-Prince of Erebor（The Book of Mazarbul） 08:12, 23 May 2023 (UTC)

I know, I do the same thing, but it always feels like you do it way faster than me. Cheers! // 🌶️Jalapeño🌶️ Don't click this link! 08:32, 23 May 2023 (UTC)

@Jalapeño:Hmmm... Maybe you can try adding filters like "likely have problems" or "very likely have problems" in RecentChanges.-Prince of Erebor（The Book of Mazarbul） 08:34, 23 May 2023 (UTC)

That's what I'm doing!!! Maybe it takes too long for me to check if it's vandalism or not.

Here's what I do:

1. Patrolling RecentChanges with the Likely have problems filter.

2. I check every new addition, by going to the page, then pressing History, then comparing the 2 latest revisions.

3. If it's vandalism, I revert it. If it isn't, I leave it as it is, and keep patrolling RecentChanges

4. ???

5. Profit

6. Repeat

Cheers! // 🌶️Jalapeño🌶️ Don't click this link! 08:45, 23 May 2023 (UTC)

@Jalapeño: Oh, you can actually press the "diff" button next to an article in Recent Changes and it will show the 2 latest revisions directly, so you don't have to scroll through the page history. Maybe that's why it took you a longer time to patrol. See if this helps. Cheers!-Prince of Erebor（The Book of Mazarbul） 08:53, 23 May 2023 (UTC)

Rollback granted

Hi Prince of Erebor. After reviewing your request, I have enabled rollback on your account. Please keep the following things in mind while using rollback:

• Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle or RedWarn.
• Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
• Rollback should never be used to edit war.
• If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
• Use common sense.

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into trouble or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! — Ingenuity (talk • contribs) 02:11, 24 May 2023 (UTC)
