Hello. I saw the rollback application you put through. I'll be answering it with my own thoughts for this occasion. Since my thoughts do not equal a collective, do not consider it to be a response that determines your chances or even an official response, but consider it to be a list of things I would recommend you to do or practice to give you a good chance at attaining the tool.

The Good
 * You have a passion for contributing to the social side of the wiki, particularly the fun and games section.
 * Your edits are substantial and helpful, especially acted out of good faith.

The Bad
 * The time gap you have when making article edits is noticeable, spanning for a couple of days to one month. While this is fine, it is leaving a gap for vandals to attack.
 * You only have 22 article edits since this message has been posted. According to the rollback requirements, you need at least 100+ article edits to be eligible for the rollback tool.
 * You appear to have inexperience in editing, as evident here. Mistakes like this aren't acceptable, along with the attempts after to fix it, so it is recommended to preview your edits before you publish them.

The Conclusion

From looking at your contributions, I can say you have potential. As long as you follow the policies and improve how you edit, you have a good chance at attaining the rollback tool.

However, as of now, I am very skeptical of your ability. You do not appear to have edits that combat vandalism, which is what the rollback tool specializes in. You also appear to have trouble editing with quality in some cases, which would need to be fixed in case the rollback tool is to fail in one case where you cannot fix it with your own natural ability. As a result, I do not believe you are experienced enough with editing the wiki beyond making small updates to pages at random intervals. That would need to improve.

Tips


 * Look at Special:WikiActivity or Special:Recentchanges more often to scan for vandalism or otherwise unhelpful edits. Also practice reporting to the moderators any issues you cannot fix, such as a page creation.
 * Read what reverting is about so you know what you are getting into.
 * Increase your scope by editing articles more often, preferably with large-scale edits so you can improve yourself.

That is all. I hope this helps.
