help me

Is there another way where you can request for the rollback feature? Wayne Olajuwon (talk) 01:45, 2 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'm reviewing your account right now. GorillaWarfare talk 01:53, 2 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! Wayne Olajuwon (talk) 01:55, 2 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It looks to me like you need a little more experience editing Wikipedia before you get rollback rights. You have a lot of declined speedy deletions and seem to be pretty unfamiliar with a lot of the inner workings of Wikipedia. Furthermore, I don't see a lot of vandal reversion in your contributions (although that could be because you don't use many edit summaries -- you should!). I'd suggest starting doing more vandal reversion. You can use Twinkle to revert vandalism easily, and it doesn't require rollback rights like Huggle does. GorillaWarfare talk 01:59, 2 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

How do I use Twinkle? Wayne Olajuwon (talk) 02:06, 2 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

See Wikipedia:TWINKLE#Installation, and WP:Twinkle/doc. Once you install it, make sure you have read the directions and only use it to revert blatant vandalism. fetch·comms 02:41, 2 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Help me

{{helpme}} Is there a chance that I can be administrator now? Wayne Olajuwon chat 00:33, 4 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Not with this incessant helpme-ing. Wait a year and see. fetch·comms 00:38, 4 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Okay. Wayne Olajuwon chat 00:39, 4 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Most people like to wait until they are at least 6 months old and have 30,000 edits before running for adminship. Also, your incessant helpme-ing is just annoying all of us on IRC. Mr. R00t Talk 00:41, 4 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry. Wayne Olajuwon chat 00:41, 4 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

30,000 is a stretch. The common minimum is about 6–8 months, with at least 4,000 exceptional edits, or about 6,000–8,000 including automated and such. fetch·comms 00:54, 4 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I only have 1,975 edits. Wayne Olajuwon chat 00:56, 4 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Don't worry about your edit count. Just keep on editing what you like to, and others will know when you're ready, and maybe they'll offer to nominate! Being an admin isn't very different. You just do the boring stuff like nuking pages (which gets you lots of complaints on your talk page). But seriously, you'll have to gain the community's trust and demonstrate a need for the tools and sufficient policy knowledge. Furthermore, you will need to show that you have sound judgement. BTW, I like your edit notice :D Airplaneman 03:12, 6 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

edit

If you could advise as to what was incorrect about the below revision, I would greatly appreciate the feedback. Thank you.

Sen. John Boehner:

Boehner has also been accused of having an overly comfortable relationship with student loan giant Sallie Mae. According to "Student Loan Justice," a grassroots organization dedicated to ending predatory student lending tactics, Boehner and Howard "Buck" Mckeon cosponsored significant changes to The Higher Education Act (HEA). The changes made student loans some of the "most lucrative and easiest type of debt to collect." [17] In 2003-2004, Boehner's political action committee -- the Freedom Project-- received $572,719 from individuals, according to records filed with the Federal Election Commission and analyzed by PoliticalMoneyLine. More than half of that, $292,570, came from employees and lobbyists for private student lending companies and for-profit academic institutions.[18] —Preceding unsigned comment added by Yougotit30 (talkcontribs) 18:00, 10 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Rollback

Hello, per your request, I've granted you Rollback rights! Just remember:

If you have any questions, please do let me know.

You deserve it!

The Anti-Vandalism Barnstar
Hello, thanks for taking the time and reverting vandalism on my talk page. Your contributions are much appreciated. Cheers, - Dwayne was here! 19:31, 12 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! Wayne Olajuwon chat 19:32, 12 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Excuse Me?

I think you've been mistaken. You think that this edit is considered vandalism. I was only saying to the user that he has a new message on my talk page. Nothing serious. Since everyone is human, and mistakes happen, I'll ask you to please not falsely accuse anyone of vandalism again. JeremyMcClean (Talk) 21:35, 12 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Oops. Sorry about that. I won't let that happen again. Wayne Olajuwon chat 21:37, 12 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Wow. Fast response. Is that a withdawal? Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 22:08, 12 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. Wayne Olajuwon chat 22:08, 12 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
