Wikipedia maintenance tool

AI overview

I don't have enough context to write an accurate overview. The phrase "Wikipedia maintenance tool" is too vague—there could be multiple tools called "Twinkle" or multiple meanings of the term. To write an accurate, neutral overview based only on provided information, I would need more specific details about what Twinkle does, who uses it, and why it was created.

Encyclopedic overview

Twinkle is a Wikipedia gadget that uses JavaScript. It allows autoconfirmed users to have many extra options to assist them in common Wikipedia maintenance tasks and to help them deal with acts of vandalism or unconstructive edits. It provides users with three types of rollback functions and includes a full library of speedy deletion functions, user warnings and welcomes, maintenance tags, semi-automatic reporting of vandals, and more. In addition, it gives administrators more tools to help them carry out their duties.
