I'm Ryan, and I've been a Wikipedia editor since August 2007. In addition to being active on the English Wikipedia, I participate on other projects. See my
Meta user page for more information. If you have any questions about anything, feel free to contact me.
Not a blatant violation of the username policy. There are other people with the name "Osama" other than
that one. Would need to see stronger evidence that's whom they are referencing.

Comment: I'm not clear on the violation here. They may be editing promotionally, but that is not a username issue.

Not a violation of the username policy. Stage names and pen names are permitted except when they imply that the editor is a specific living person they are not. Consider filing a report at the
conflict of interest noticeboard. Malinaccier (

Hello, for some time now I have been patrolling
Special:RecentChanges occasionally and
reverting vandalisms that I identify, using Twinkle. In addition to reverting, of course I also
notify the users who commit these acts of vandalism. I also usually make reports to
Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism. I'm adding this request for obtaining the rollback tool here because I would like to have access to semi-automatic tools, namely Huggle, which would greatly facilitate the work currently done with several clicks. I enjoy patrolling recent changes and I'm sure that becoming a rollbacker would make my work easier. I have been
a rollbacker on Commons for over a year and understand how the tool works, as well as the risks associated with it, committing myself not to misuse it, under the risk of losing it and possibly being blocked. Thanks,

Not done I reviewed your contributions and found little to no recent anti-vandalism work. If you're still interested in this tool then please spend at least a month actively patrolling
RecentChanges (
Twinkle &
Ultraviolet can help with that) before reapplying. Also, please ensure that you are consistently
warning editors when you revert their edits. Thanks,

Thanks,
Fastily, I'll follow your advices! How many reverts do you think it's neccessary during this period? Cheers,

I'm not looking for a specific number. But I will say that it's not uncommon for experienced vandal fighters to make several dozen reverts a day. -
