I am not a sysop. Just looks weird to have edits missing

Like all bot edits, they're hidden by default from recent changes only. They still appear everywhere else, and if you click "show bots" you'll see them in RC.

been here 4 years and i never heard of such a thing. What an age we live in

You joined RW six days after I did, ~ three years and seven months ago. If you want botrollback, it's one of Nx's scripts, you can add it to your vector.js (I'm not sure whether you need to be a sysop to rollback or not, so you might be able to use it).

Whatever, nearly 4 years then.

I can rollback. You don't need to be a sysop.

Bot rollback really confuses me. People should use it lightly.

User:Brxbrx/sig02:52, 4 October 2011

Nope.

If people had to do things lightly or carefully because it confused you Brx then nothing would get done. Jesus, even your mother would have trouble tying your shoes for you.

It hides rollbacks from recent changes. That's semi serious.

And my father taught me to tie my shoes.

It doesn't hide them, it just makes them more difficult to find. A good, non abusive tool to prevent nascent HCMs.

I said use it lightly. I like seeing/knowing things, is all.

Of course, this is my own selfish desire, and likely not of any relevance to the wiki's well-being. I shall drop the matter.
