The rollback feature is a part of the MediaWiki software. It is a way to quickly undo vandalism made by the last user to change the page. It is given to administrators as part of their work.

Rollback can also be given to people who are not administrators. Such people are referred to as rollbackers. You may ask for rollback at Wikipedia:Requests for rollback or on an administrator's talk page.

Rollback is available to all 19 Wikipedia administrators, and there are 414 users with the rollbacker permission locally. In total, 433 editors have rollback rights. Apart from them, global rollbackers and stewards also have access to rollback.
