Forum:Rollback highlight - Do they need it?

Well, considering everything else that's going on I feel this is appropriate. This has been an issue that has been controversial in the past, at one point the highlight was removed to consensus, at another it was brought back via consensus. A lot of time has passed since then and I figure it doesn't hurt if we ask again.

Support removal of rollback highlight

 * 1) - "The colors are used to distinguish between users with certain access rights. Although rollbacks have one additional tool then others they are not able to perform administrative tasks therefore allowing them a highlight would serve no purpose. I don't think a user needs to know who has rollbacks rights as, in a hypothetical situation, won't see the need in a user contacting a rollback simply to request them save time to revert an edit rather than themselves undoing it. It's simply used to distinguish between users who can offer additional aid to others."  17:14, August 9, 2012 (UTC)
