OK, I am not going to visit the requests page anymore, people with
alternative outlooks are obviously unwelcome.
I have never had objection to rollback per se. My objection was always
that its utility to the project was marginal at best, and well
outweighed by the inevitable process and b'cracy people would create.
The way this was introduced was disruptive in the extreme, but now we
have it, it is unlikely to go away. The best solution would be to get
agreement to give it automatically in some way ( <irony> perhaps another
dev will do that - I mean why listen to people too scared to allow
change </irony>)
Meanwhile we need to resist the emergence of unnecessary process, and
make sure this is given out as easily as possible to all reasonable
people who request it.
Have a process page with as many rules as you wish, as long as admins
can continue to use the good judgement they were chosen for, and make
this thing really "no big deal".
To that end, I have created:
[[Category:Wikipedia admins willing to grant rollback requests]]
and would encourage as many admins as possible to add themselves to it.
Let's keep instruction creep at bay, without warring over the page.
