Support

 * 1) Tommy is one of our most prolific users in terms of creating quality content, but scanning through his many edits also shows numerous undos and reversions of unhelpful edits. Tommy has been round the site since 2007, and in that time has become a true asset to Wookieepedia. He has written over 62 FAs and 29 GAs (!), and is a member of the Inq and AC. I believe Tommy is truly deserving of rollback, and it will only benefit the site to have such a tool in his hands. Grunny  ( talk ) 02:47, January 18, 2011 (UTC)

Optional candidate Q&A

 * 1) Why should you be granted rollback rights?
 * 2) *My primary goal with regard to Wookieepedia is and has always been the to serve the site wholeheartedly and preserve its integrity to the best of my ability. Patrolling recent changes has allowed me to serve the site in a particular capacity, because that is where untoward edits are exposed. While the ability to revert/restore unproductive edits is something that all Wookieepedians have, I believe rollback allows those who are able to undo unproductive edits more efficiently. For me, rollback isn’t a "right," but more of an honored duty; it's not a cane used to flog the mischievous, but rather a broom to sweep up that which was made untidy. —Tommy 9281 13:39, January 18, 2011 (UTC)
