Rolling back a diff involving several non-constructive edits from more than one editor, the "non-constructive" rollback function only rolls back the most recent edit, leaving the earlier non-constructive edits in place. I believe the same is true of a few rollback functions whereas other rollbacks do go back to the earliest diff of several. I wonder if this is a feature or bug? Personally if I am viewing such a diff and perform any rollback action I would expect all edits to be reverted to the earliest version. Captainllama ( talk) 10:54, 2 September 2020 (UTC)
Hello, today RedWarn patrol has appeared to become laggy for myself. The animation for new changes seems to not be appearing, and it takes a couple seconds for the new changes to start or stop after moving my mouse off of the cursor hover bar. I've tried uninstalling and re-installing RedWarn, using Edge (Chromium) instead of Firefox, and disabling extensions in Firefox. I've attached an Imgur gif of the issue here. Thanks.

One of the reasons I may prefer the T instead of the R in RW. I get to confirm my rollback so I don't get something like this. Make it so we have to confirm like TW, and the option to skip the confirmation by shift+click. Can I Log In ( talk) 21:15, 5 September 2020 (UTC)
RedWarn is a very nice tool. I like some of its features. When will RedWarn become something we can enable in user preferences? A a s i m 08:43, 6 September 2020 (UTC)
Hi devs and thanks for all the work on this great tool. 2 questions: 1) is there a way to revert problematic edits such as unsourced genres without leaving an "m" for minor edit in the edit summary as can be seen here. I rarely call an edit minor, especially reverting an unsourced genre as such edits are often considered contentious. 2) When I'm on a users contributions page and am reverting unsourced genres, I always leave an edit summary when the option is given but for some reason my contributions, such as the one I linked above show no edit summary. When I revert an edit from the revision history page with a summary it's always there. Does that make sense? Rob van vee 08:58, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
I believe it shows in logs as with adding something when reviewing pending changes. — Yours, Berrely • Talk∕ Contribs 15:14, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

Please add the following editnotice for Wikipedia talk:RedWarn:
Requests to modify the source code of RedWarn should be made at GitLab, not here. Any changes made here to the RedWarn source code will be lost when RedWarn is recompiled or updated. |
I am not Ed6767 or a RedWarn maintainer, but I think this may be needed to prevent edit requests to RedWarn's source code from being made to RedWarn that will be lost when the file is rebuilt. A a s i m 20:00, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
@ Ed6767: RedWarn today is acting like if I didn't even install redwarn. All of the quick rollback are missing. The user warning button doesn't show. The page protection request is also missing. Could you please fix this? User3749 ( talk) 15:22, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

P,TO 19104 left a uw-biog1 note for a new user who added unsourced information to a BLP. I asked them about the edit summary, "Adding unreferenced defamatory information about living persons", and they told me it was from RedWarn.
The unsourced edit in question added information in WP:NPOV that someone's parents were Jewish and had fled the Nazis. Calling that "defamatory" is, to put it mildly, not a good idea. If RedWarn has no standard edit summaries which allow editors to refer to the above as unsourced in a neutral way, it needs them. BlackcurrantTea ( talk) 10:53, 13 September 2020 (UTC)
Adding unreferenced or defamatory information about living persons, this would help make the summary less broad, yet still of use in cases where defamatory content is added. — Yours, Berrely • Talk∕ Contribs 13:23, 13 September 2020 (UTC)

While reverting vandalism on another page, I found that an IP user had left a message on the article (yes, the article. Not the talk page. Why.) saying "hey watcha doin". I rolled back the changes and sent the IP user a notice with the following settings:
The issue being that uw-talkinarticle is a single-use template. RW outputted Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that you recently added commentary to an article, Tennessee Walking Horse. While Wikipedia welcomes editors' opinions on an article and how it could be changed, these comments are more appropriate for the article's accompanying talk page. If you post your comments there, other editors working on the same article will notice and respond to them, and your comments will not disrupt the flow of the article. However, keep in mind that even on the talk page of an article, you should limit your discussion to improving the article. Article talk pages are not the place to discuss opinions of the subject of articles, nor are such pages a forum. Thank you. to the talk page. Thanks in advance for fixing the issue.

Hello all, thank you all for using RedWarn. Following a spate of reported abuse, and a request for comment regarding restrictions on the features of RedWarn, consensus was reached to restrict full access of RedWarn to extended confirmed users. Unfortunately, your account does not yet meet these requirements.
From 1 October 2020, you will be using RedWarn in a "restricted mode" and may no longer be able to access these features of RedWarn:
After reaching 500 edits and being a contributor for over 30 days, you may once again gain full access to RedWarn and these features will be re-enabled. You will also gain access to the multiple action tool. If this is an alternate account, you may request for extended confirmed permissions at WP:RFP/EC. If you have any comments, questions or concerns, please feel free to leave them below this message. Ed talk!, on behalf of the RedWarn team. 16:31, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
I think I need to stop using RedWarn now because I am rarely active now. Thank you for the info.-- Syed Muhammad Al Hafiz ( talk) 00:25, 29 August 2020 (UTC)
