'''Support''' having requests for rollback - I agree that it is a tool that may not be as helpful as it is on, say, Wikipedia, but it does still come in handy in the rarer cases where one finds themselves staring at vandalism here. I agree with Miles that if someone doesn't want more users with rollback privileges at a certain time, that they can express their opposition at a RfR. I don't find the chance of misused rollbacking to be high, as hopefully, the process of RfR would stop any abusers and people with a lack of experience. Accidents, however, definitely do happen - I've accidentally clicked the rollback button one too many times on Wikipedia. But mistakes are just as easily fixable as they are done, so I feel that the accidents don't outweigh giving users rollback privileges. <b>~<i>[[User:SuperHamster|<font color="#07517C">Super</font>]]</i>[[User:SuperHamster|<font color="#6FA23B">Hamster</font>]]</b> <small>[[User talk:SuperHamster|Talk]]</small> 22:05, 31 January 2011 (EST) | '''Support''' having requests for rollback granting rollback rights, but not having RfRs (see Omega's comment below) - I agree that it is a tool that may not be as helpful as it is on, say, Wikipedia, but it does still come in handy in the rarer cases where one finds themselves staring at vandalism here.

:I have changed my standpoint to one similar to Omega's below. I support handing out rollback rights, but oppose holding discussions for them. Rather, I would like to see a system where a user can simply request the rollback ability on the same page as before, and a bureaucrat will simply deny or accept the request - no discussion involved. <b>~<i>[[User:SuperHamster|<font color="#07517C">Super</font>]]</i>[[User:SuperHamster|<font color="#6FA23B">Hamster</font>]]</b> <small>[[User talk:SuperHamster|Talk]]</small> 15:27, 2 February 2011 (EST) | |||
'''Support''' - Right now I have the same opinion as SuperHamster, altough accidents could happen with the rollback, they can be fixed and they don´t outweight the positive things that the rollback grants.

:After reading your comment, I've decided that I agree with you, except for one point - instead of approaching a specific bureaucrat, I'd rather see users ask for rollback on the same page as before, except that there would be no discussion. Rather, a random bureaucrat will review the request and either accept or deny it, no discussion involved. Now that I think of it, that's also how Wikipedia grants rollback. <b>~<i>[[User:SuperHamster|<font color="#07517C">Super</font>]]</i>[[User:SuperHamster|<font color="#6FA23B">Hamster</font>]]</b> <small>[[User talk:SuperHamster|Talk]]</small> 15:27, 2 February 2011 (EST) | |||
