Wikipedia:Expanded rollback access
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This Wikipedia page is currently inactive and is retained primarily for historical interest. Per Wikipedia:Policies and guidelines: "A historical page is any proposal for which consensus is unclear, where discussion has died out for whatever reason. Historical pages also include any process no longer in use, or any non-recent log of any process. Historical pages can be revived by advertising them. " If you want to revive discussion regarding the subject, you should seek broader input via a forum such as the village pump. |
If passed, this proposal would expand rollback access to all Wikipedians with user accounts.
Rollback is not an administrative control, but rather a tool of convenience. Most vandalism control on Wikipedia is managed by those who are not administrators, and most vandalism created by users with anonymous IPs. The logic behind the proposal is that the overall benefits of such an implementation far outweigh the costs.
