Rollback

I have granted rollback rights to your account; the reason for this is that after a review of some of your contributions, I believe you can be trusted to use rollback correctly, and for its intended usage of reverting vandalism, and that you will not abuse it by reverting good-faith edits or to revert-war. For information on rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback and Wikipedia:Rollback feature. If you do not want rollback, just let me know, and I'll remove it. Good luck and thanks.

Warning vandals

Just a note on checking your contribs from the Rollback request. When warning users, you don't need to (and shouldn't) use level 1 warnings in cases of obvious vandalism. A first warning can and should be higher than level 1 if the user in question is making clear vandalism edits. I've written a little essay on this on my own user page that you can read if you like, and it's perfectly legitimate to be more or less harsh than I am, but using level 1 warnings (which implies you are assuming good faith) is unnecessary when the user is *clearly* acting in bad faith. Bad faith editors which are perpetually warned with level 1 warnings makes it harder to distinguish good faith from bad and harder to deal with problematic editors. —ShadowRanger ^(talk|stalk) 21:22, 30 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
