Wikipedia:巻き戻しの使用

巻き戻しは問題のある編集を素早く差し戻すことができますが、生成される要約が固定され、差し戻しの理由を説明できないという欠点があります。よって、要約欄の記入が必要な場面で巻き戻しを使うのは不適切と考えられています。巻き戻しを使って良いのは、

1. 明白な荒らしの差し戻しなど、差し戻す理由が明白なとき
2. 自分自身の利用者名前空間での使用
3. 自分自身の編集を差し戻すとき（間違えて行なった編集など）
4. LTAやブロック破りの編集を差し戻すとき（ただし、聞かれたら理由を説明できるようにしましょう）
5. 百科事典の発展に寄与しない大量の編集（方針を理解しない編集者や、暴走したBotによるもの）を差し戻すとき。ただし、関係するノートページなど適切な場所に理由を書く必要があります。

それ以外の編集、例えばあなたが同意しないだけの、善意による編集に対する巻き戻しの使用は権限の濫用と判断されることがあります。迷った時は、別の方法を使い、要約欄で理由を説明すべきです。

これらの制限は、要約が固定された通常の巻き戻しに対してのみ適用されます。ツールや手動により要約欄を記入することができる場合は、他の差し戻し方法と同様、巻き戻しは自由に使うことができます。

他の手段により差し戻す時同様、巻き戻す時は巻き戻し後の版がWikipediaの方針に違反していないことを確認してください。

英語版ガイドライン（en:WP:ROLLBACKUSE）

Standard rollback is a fast way of undoing problematic edits, but it has the disadvantage that only a generic edit summary is generated, with no explanation of the reason for the change. For this reason, it is considered inappropriate to use it in situations where an explanatory edit summary would normally be expected. Rollback may be used:

1. To revert obvious vandalism and other edits where the reason for reverting is absolutely clear
2. To revert edits in your own userspace
3. To revert edits that you have made (for example, edits that you accidentally made)
4. To revert edits by banned or blocked users in defiance of their block or ban (but be prepared to explain this use of rollback when asked to)
5. To revert widespread edits (by a misguided editor or malfunctioning bot) unhelpful to the encyclopedia, provided that you supply an explanation in an appropriate location, such as at the relevant talk page

Use of standard rollback for any other purposes – such as reverting good-faith changes which you happen to disagree with – is likely to be considered misuse of the tool. When in doubt, use another method of reversion and supply an edit summary to explain your reasoning.

The above restrictions apply to standard rollback, using the generic edit summary. If a tool or manual method is used to add an appropriate explanatory edit summary (as described in the Additional tools section below), then rollback may be freely used as with any other method of reverting.

As with other methods of reverting, when using rollback to restore text to a page, ensure that the text restored does not violate Wikipedia policies.

Administrators may revoke the rollback privilege or issue a block in response to a persistent failure to explain reverts, regardless of the means used. However, they should allow the editor an opportunity to explain their use of rollback before taking any action – there may be justification of which the administrator is not aware (such as reversion of a banned user). Similarly, editors who edit war may lose the privilege regardless of the means used to edit war. Administrators who persistently misuse rollback may have their administrator access revoked, although in practice such cases would require the intervention of the Arbitration Committee.
