Discontinue use of the Rollbacker role

With the introduction of the Moderator role, having a role solely for rollbacking seems to be mostly useless, as most people would be more likely to apply for moderator instead. With this in mind, I think keeping the role in use would be a waste, as to me, it's clear nobody is going to use it. What do you all think? (Lets chat!) 05:23, 14 April 2023 (UTC)

1. Support That's one of the main things a mod does. (Talk!) 14:04, 17 April 2023 (UTC)
2. Support most people would probably go for mod rather than rollback. Logohub (talk) 06:42, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
3. Support this role is useless ForcedExcess26 (talk) 08:00, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
4. Support as rollbacker is made redundant by a full on moderation team, and the use of the moderation extension which minimizes the sort of things you'd actually use rollback for. --Raidarr (talk) 08:38, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
5. Support I think the Rollbacker role is just a waste of time. I don't know why it even exists! (Talk to Me!) 08:45, 14 April 2023 (UTC)

   It's legit just a holdover from when we didn't have the moderator role (Lets chat!) 05:33, 15 April 2023 (UTC)

   so, technically, for international uses, we start with british uses, then australian uses, then japanese uses, then german uses, etc. why dont we continue with spanish, french, german, italian, japanese, korean, then continuing like it originally was? 20thcenturyfox1981 (talk) 13:34, 17 April 2023 (UTC)

   by the way, the 6 languages described here should've been after british and australian 20thcenturyfox1981 (talk) 13:35, 17 April 2023 (UTC)
