Ok, I have been here for a month already and I have at least 680 edits right now. I know how important it is for my contributions to make this wiki better and I know my understanding for reverting edits.

:I'm going to go ahead and '''support''' this application. You are a bit on the new side for an editor, but you show good potential, and I'm almost always in support of editors spreading their wings and learning new skills and gaining new experience.

Rollback requests on The Sims Wiki are, in my opinion at least, a little more formal than the system on Wikipedia given how we have significantly fewer editors here (and significantly fewer incidents of vandalism) than on the English Wikipedia. That being said, rollback is not like granting adminship and it can easily be revoked in the event of abuse, as rollbackers cannot hide their edits from [[Special:RecentChanges|recent changes]]. Needless to say, rollback can still affect newer users if the tool is used inappropriately against them; as such, I generally expect to see some level of trust in users before I support a nomination for rollback here on The Sims Wiki. Personally, I prefer waiting at least six months for that to happen.
 
IsaiahScribblenauts is still very new here (only recently passed their two-month mark), and at least by my standards, still have somewhat of a novice understanding of wiki editing. That being said, they have picked up the ropes fairly quickly, and while they are not top-notch they have shown a willingness to learn and have gotten along well with other editors. They have helped with vandal fighting on the wiki and have done some work with content creation, particularly in our TS4 articles which are lacking and in need of attention. They aren't ready for content moderator—not by a long shot—but they show potential, and even if they do not get content moderatorship or adminship, they are still the type of editor that the community values—and so desperately needs.
 
With that being said, I am in {{support}} of this request. The user has demonstrated sufficient trust for me to believe that they will not intentionally abuse the rollback tool, and I am confident that they will be open to suggestions and advice should they ever make a mistake. —[[User:K6ka|'''<span style="color:#0040FF">k6ka</span>''']] <span title="Canadian!" style="color:red">🍁</span> ([[User talk:K6ka|<span style="color:#0080FF">Talk</span>]] · [[Special:Contributions/K6ka|<span style="color:#0B4C5F">Contributions</span>]]) 01:59, May 28, 2018 (UTC)
 
==Closed requests==
Line 115 ⟶ 104:
::{{oppose}} K6ka pretty much hit all the points I'd want to make. Even if the global block was a misunderstanding, I'd still oppose your request. The bottom line for me is that you haven't been here long enough and you don't have very many edits under your belt. Rollback is a position of trust on The Sims Wiki and we don't know enough about you to put that amount of trust in you yet. - '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<span style="color:navy;">LiR</span>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">talk</font>]] · [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">blog</font>]] · [[Special:Contributions/LostInRiverview|<font color="green">contribs</font>]]</sup>''' 19:49, January 12, 2018 (UTC)
'''Application closed''' due to opposition from two members of the administrative team (as per procedure #2 listed above). Applicant is free to re-apply or to be nominated in the future, but is advised to address the points raised by the objecting administrators before applying again. -- '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<span style="color:navy;">LiR</span>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">talk</font>]] · [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">blog</font>]] · [[Special:Contributions/LostInRiverview|<font color="green">contribs</font>]]</sup>''' 19:49, January 12, 2018 (UTC)

Oh wait, I didn't realize that the minimum two administrator requirement to approve this request had already been fulfilled. Well, make that ''three'' now. I've just gone ahead and {{Done|Approved}} this request even though I had already commented on it because consensus clearly exists. —[[User:K6ka|'''<span style="color:#0040FF">k6ka</span>''']] <span title="Canadian!" style="color:red">🍁</span> ([[User talk:K6ka|<span style="color:#0080FF">Talk</span>]] · [[Special:Contributions/K6ka|<span style="color:#0B4C5F">Contributions</span>]]) 02:50, May 28, 2018 (UTC)
