[...] This is because you only have less than 20 rollbackers dealing with it, a number targeted to old conditions; are you interested in a list of very active patrollers who could be nominated for election as rollbackers to help?

If you're interested in quick solution, you could ask User:HAndrade (WMF) (who has already been very helpful) to list all the reverted edits he counted, and I volunteer to inspect them for patterns. We could see if rate limits would help and so on; all those who follow this report without being pt.wiki users do so because they're interested in technical solutions, so I'm sure they'd help too. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
