Optional candidate Q&A

 * 1) Why should you be granted rollback rights?
 * 2) *What, I don't have a Divine Right? Well, let's see&mdash;in terms of my Wook resumé, I am an Inquisitor as well as a WookieeProject leader, and I have contributed many things great and small to the wiki, including numerous vandalism reverts. I spend a solid amount of time on the wiki, and I keep at least one eye on the RC for most of it. There are also certain times of day when not many admins or users who can employ rollback are active that I find myself working on here. Vandals abound, my friends. &mdash;Graestan [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( This party's over ) 23:30, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

Trustworthy and active user. It wouldn't hurt having an extra rollbacker around. --Imperialles 22:50, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

Two week deadline from first request, voting ends November 18, 2007.

Support

 * 1) Imperialles 02:23, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
 * 2) Stamp of approval. Thefourdotelipsis 02:24, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
 * 3) Perhaps even more active in the anti-vandalism area than Grae, Acky most definitely deserves these rights, and I'm sure he'll use them well. Hobbes15 ( Tiger Headquarters ) 02:27, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
 * 4) It's about bloody time. Six months. Bah! Stupid "calendar" and "laws of physics." I hate them so much. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 02:31, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
 * 5) JMAS 02:45, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

Optional candidate Q&A

 * 1) Why should you be granted rollback rights?
 * 2) *I'd like to think that I would actually use them, and that it would help keep the wiki as vandalism free as I can. I'll admit that anti-vandalism is not my main aim when on Wookieepedia, but I do keep a tab open with recent changes pretty much at all times, and check most dubious looking edits. I'm also quite active, which helps. --  AdmirableAckbar  [Talk] 02:39, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

Comments
This user seems to always be one step ahead of me when it comes to patrolling Recent changes. Granting him rollback powers would be quite helpful (and he wouldn't have to pester the admins in the IRC channel all the time :P). --Imperialles 02:23, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
