Twinkle is a JavaScript gadget available to autoconfirmed users that provides three types of rollback functions, as well as links to quickly welcome or warn users. It also gives administrators many additional tools to help them with their duties. It was originally developed as a simple reversion script for the English Wikipedia that has since expanded to become one of the most popular user gadgets on Wikipedia, used by thousands of Wikipedians. Many aspects of the tool happily work just fine on The Sims Wiki on Miraheze.

How to enable[edit source]

The simplest way to enable Twinkle is by going to the Gadgets section of your user preferences and enabling it there. Be sure to click 'Save' at the bottom of the page to save your changes!
