I have enough edits to become one, though I didn't understand thoroughly how a Rollback is elected. Can someone help?

Well to run a rollback you need to have over 500 edits and be active on the site for 3 months once that's done you post in the user reccomendation board. For rollback you'll need your consent, approval from two admins, and approval from two non-admins. Rollback also does not require an election since it only allows us to undo vandalism more easily.
You can find the policy for elections here: http://sonicfanon.wikia.com/wiki/Sonic_Fanon_Wiki:Policy/Elections
It's not much different from being a normal user. The only thing that's different is you're able to undo edits without it appearing in the Recent Activity or the page's history. Rollbacks are supposed to be those people that monitor pages and take care of them if they're vandalized, but our admins usually have that covered already.

Doesn't sound like much.
Yeah, but it's a lot to me because I've never been anywhere close to being in a place of some power.
