Users with rollback should not use their additional power to revert non-vandal edits or as part of an edit war; such behavior will likely incur a demotion as well as a ban.  Also, if a user with rollback is blocked for any reason, they will lose their rollback status and must re-request it.

If there is ''any'' doubt about whether an edit should be rolled back, '''do not use''' this feature.  While the undo function allows for an edit summary and thus an explanation of your reversion, the rollback automatically creates a different entry in the page's history.

While the undo function can be used for anything, including content dispute, as long as it doesn't break [[SW:1RV|1RV]]. It is expected that the edit summary is manually modified to explain content edits.  This is because rollback does not allow you to modify the edit summary to explain why you are reverting.
