You are now a Reviewer

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, will be commencing a two-month trial at approximately 23:00, 2010 June 15 (UTC).

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under flagged protection. Flagged protection is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 03:42, 16 June 2010 (UTC)

Autopatrolled

Hello, this is just to let you know that I have granted you the "autopatrolled" permission. This won't affect your editing, it just automatically marks any page you create as patrolled, benefiting new page patrollers. Please remember:

• This permission does not give you any special status or authority
• Submission of inappropriate material may lead to its removal
• You may wish to display the {{Autopatrolled}} top icon and/or the {{User wikipedia/autopatrolled}} userbox on your user page
• If, for any reason, you decide you do not want the permission, let me know and I can remove it

If you have any questions about the permission, don't hesitate to ask. Otherwise, happy editing!HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 06:37, 25 January 2011 (UTC)

a request

The deletion of four of the six articles that prompted this note were expired {{prod}}s. For Choppa, CJ Mac, D-Shot, Celly Cel all that was required was for you to request their restoration. Anyone is allowed to request the restoration of an expired {{prod}}. Sometimes an administrator will restore the expired article, but will suggest to the original nominator that they initiate a full {{afd}}.

User:Courcelles is correct to have deleted these articles. However, the nominator was supposed to have advised you of the nomination.

Anyone is entitled to request the restoration of an expired {{prod}}, and I did so with Choppa.

As you can see I found additional references for Choppa. I told Courcelles that I would make sure those references would be incorporated in the article. When it is restored, could you take care of that?

You were pretty hostile with Courcelles. Do you think that hostility was justified? My interpretation of our policies is that, in theory, we are never supposed to allow ourselves to be as hostile as you allowed yourself to be. I don't know if you have a hsitory with Courcelles, and, based on that history, you thought you were responding in kind. We are not supposed to respond in kind, although lots of people, including administrators who should really be setting an example, do routinely respond in kind.

I am not an administrator. If I were in Courcelles position I would have first warned you about your hostile tone, and then have restored the four expired {{prod}}s.

As a courtesy to me, because I spent time rounding up those references, could you use more moderate language when communicating with Courcelles? I am not an expert on music related articles. There are specific criteria that only apply to music related articles. Can I rely on you to double check those criteria, and try to make sure the Choppa article complies with them? If it can't be made to comply with them, I think one of us should request its deletion -- possibly after merging elements of it into other articles.

October 2011

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours for your disruption caused by edit warring by violation of the three-revert rule at Romeo discography. During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} below this notice, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. Elen of the Roads (talk) 18:33, 26 October 2011 (UTC)

This blocked user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy). Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Request reason:

Look, I had asked an administrator for his help, but he has yet to answer my request. But as far as reverting Romeo discography, Davis100 was adding information that simply was not true, certifications, chart positions and sales that are not at all accurate. I had cleaned the page up a bit and he kept changing it back. He had been given numerous warnings prior to this (including a final warning by User:STATicVerseatide that went unnoticed) and should have been banned months ago. Please reconsider this block as I was simply trying to ward off a vandal until help could be providedLive and Die 4 Hip Hop (talk) 18:45, 26 October 2011 (UTC)

Decline reason:

Once you have gone beyond WP:BRD, you're edit-warring, and you've been around enough to know that. However, this block shows you have some reading to do. Over the next 24hrs, re-read WP:EW, WP:DR, WP:3RR, and WP:BRD. You'll be back soon. (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 20:58, 26 October 2011 (UTC)

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first and then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you abuse this procedure by making too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page as long as you are blocked.

Looks to me like a pretty vanilla content dispute; why not try dispute resolution or just wait for admin assistance once a report is made? If the information is obviously false, it shouldn't be very much trouble to get a posse of editors to say so, right? The three-revert rule is a very important piece of policy that shouldn't be ignored lightly. – Luna Santin (talk) 20:09, 26 October 2011 (UTC)

The last revert was my final one, I had contacted Administrators' noticeboard hoping to end this nonsense, but I now see I should've done it earlier as it would've prevented me from getting blocked. But my intent was not to let this carry out into an edit war but to remove disruptive information that was not factual, I can assure you this will never happen again.

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Before saving your changes to an article, please provide an edit summary for your edits. Doing so helps everyone understand the intention of your edit (and prevents legitimate edits from being mistaken for vandalism). It is also helpful to users reading the edit history of the page. Thank you.

RE: Discography

Even if the change doesn't make any sense, it's still the change. So if you want it changed back, hit up the talk page and try to change it back. Until it's changed back, I'm going to revert back to the RIAA, BPI, MC, etc. It's more professional, and editors won't be confused when they see "US" wikilinked to different things. The Rambling Man explains it more at WT:DISCOGSTYLE.

Hi

Thank you for making an article for "Never Scared", "Backyard Boogie", and "Cell Therapy". I also have redirect song pages for Trick Daddy's "I'm a Thug", Birdman's "Do That...", Kid Cudi's "Soundtrack 2 My Life" and "Up Up & Away (The Wake & Bake Song)", 50 Cent's "Many Men (Wish Death)", Trillville's "Some Cut", P$C's "I'm a King", Murphy Lee's "Wat Da Hook Gon Be", Fabolous' "Trade It All Pt. 2", Master P's "Souljas" and "Goodbye to My Homies", Eve's "What You Want", "Gotta Man" and "Love Is Blind", Lil Rob's "Summer Nights", MC Lyte's "Paper Thin", Salt-n-Pepa's "None of Your Business", "Heaven 'n Hell" and "Ain't Nuthin' But a She Thang", Gang Starr's "Take It Personal", Big L's "Flamboyant", Reflection Eternal's "Move Somethin'", Lil Zane's "Callin' Me", the Ying Yang Twins' "What's Happ'nin", Public Enemy's "Can't Truss It", Young Gunz' "No Better Love", Masta Ace Incorporated's "Born to Roll", the 69 Boyz' "Woof Woof", Hi-Tek's "Round & Round", Eric B. & Rakim's "Don't Sweat the Technique", Rawkus Records' "Oh No", Queen Pen's "All My Love", Grand Puba's "360 Degrees (What Goes Around)", Gucci Mane's "Beat It Up", Geto Boys' "Six Feet Deep", and Kool Moe Dee's "Rise N Shine". You don't have to turn 'em all into articles NOW, but is it OK if you do some? You don't even have to do any of them if you don't want to, cause I've seen that you made over 1,000 articles already.- Speedfish (talk) 3 February 2012 15:48 (UTC)

"Some Cut" got certified platinum, "Soundtrack 2 My Life", "Up Up & Away (The Wake & Bake Song)", I'm a King", "Many Men (Wish Death)" and "Can't Truss It" got certified gold, and "I'm a Thug", "Trade It All Pt. 2" and "Wat Da Hook Gon Be" made the Hot 100 top 20. The rest of the songs either made the Hot 100 top 40 or topped the Rap Songs chart.- Speedfish (talk) 4 February 2012 08:38 (UTC)
