Rollback request
[edit]I saw your request for rollback rights on my page, and I'm declining it for now, but only on the grounds that you are brand new. Feel free to ask me again in a few months once you have a chance to build up a track record. Hiberniantears (talk) 12:59, 24 February 2015 (UTC)

Rollback request (2)
[edit]Hi there, I've noticed that you've placed rollback requests on several user's talk pages. We unfortunately only accept rollback requests from people who have demonstrated their ability in reverting vandalism, so you'd need quite a bit more experience before requesting the right. You also stated that you are interested in learning more about reverting vandalism. In that case, I recommend playing the the Wikipedia adventure for a general tutorial on Wikipedia, and then reading our page about vandalism and then joining our course for vandalism. Thanks!

- Re: your request at my page: Unfortunately, I have to agree with the other editors here. Your account is too new (0 mainspace edits) to grant you rollback at this time. WP:ROLLBACK notes that users should generally have at least 200 mainspace edits before requesting the right. I'd further note that it is useful if a significant portion of those edits are fixing vandalism in a similar manner to the way you would fix vandalism if you had the rollback right. I'm sorry to have to decline your request, but hope that you'll stay around and get some experience so that we can grant it in the future! – Philosopher Let us reason together. 00:34, 27 February 2015 (UTC)
