Rollback rate limit increase for Alachuckthebuck
[edit]I'm working on cleaning up User:WLKBot's contribs using massrollback, but am running into the (normally gracious) 100 rollbacks per minute limit. Is there a way to remove this limit on my account for the next 3 days or so? All the Best -- Chuck Talk 18:04, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Alachuckthebuck: I don't think there is any way out than that of using a bot account? "noratelimit" per Special:ListGroupRights is only a part of the rights set for TA's, sysops, crats', account creators, stewards and bots. Regards, Aafi (talk) 19:02, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
- Not my call, but "accountcreator" seems to be an option. Also, those no longer active in that group could be removed at the same time: https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:ListUsers&group=accountcreator --Schlurcher (talk) 20:49, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
- Assigned ac for a week, but I think the rollbacks should be done with bot flag as far as possible. Krd 21:38, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Krd, (my part of the) cleanup is done, can you remove Account Creator, and remove the expration that was accidentally set on LR instead? All the Best -- Chuck Talk 23:57, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Schlurcher, Would renaming the role to (noratelimit) be more appropriate? I can see a legitimate use for removing all rate limits for certain users. All the Best -- Chuck Talk 00:02, 30 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Alachuckthebuck No. It is not appropriate given that it is not a separate user right group. There is nothing that can be renamed to "No rate Limit" or so. However, what could be a question of interest is whether the community has a need of a new group that only has "noratelimit" ability and no other permissions. Although it is technically possible but it needs a community consensus. Regards, Aafi (talk) 08:10, 30 October 2024 (UTC)
- I think there is no real problem in the name being a bit misleading. Krd 08:17, 30 October 2024 (UTC)
- Well the name isn't misleading either. Regards, Aafi (talk) 13:07, 30 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Krd and Chuck: I proposed one at COM:VPP. — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 14:02, 30 October 2024 (UTC)
