Artist impression images in exoplanet articles Comment

Please place artist impression images (clearly labeled as such) in an appropriate section of the article, not in the planet box. These impressions, regardless of how well intended or their source, tend to get pretty far ahead of not only what is known, but even what it is reasonable to suppose is known, and can this be pretty misleading and un-encyclopedic. Thanks! — Aldaron • T/C 20:53, 22 December 2015 (UTC)

Change to List of cities proper by population

Hi, just saw you made a change in a population in the List of cities proper by population without citing a source, and also deleting the old source. If you are going to change the population figure it's very important to cite the source of your new number, ideally from official sources. Thanks! Mattximus (talk) 01:06, 23 December 2015 (UTC)

Regarding Life

Hello Martin, regarding Life I decided to undo your removal of 'Phanerozoic Eon' section as I found the removal was unexplained and rather huge. If there has bee nan disussion regarding removal of that section I've not found such. _→AzaToth 11:58, 31 January 2016 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for February 7

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Life, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Hosts (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Edit war

Hi, I'm pleased to have the opportunity to engage with you. We are in danger of edit warring at Life. Please read the comment I have made on the Talk Page. Your lack of edit summaries and discussion give the impression of ownership. Graham Beards (talk) 00:17, 1 May 2016 (UTC)

Pending changes reviewer granted

Hello. Your account has been granted the "pending changes reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on pages protected by pending changes. The list of articles awaiting review is located at Special:PendingChanges, while the list of articles that have pending changes protection turned on is located at Special:StablePages.

Being granted reviewer rights neither grants you status nor changes how you can edit articles. If you do not want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time.

See also:

• Wikipedia:Reviewing, the guideline on reviewing
• Wikipedia:Pending changes, the summary of the use of pending changes
• Wikipedia:Protection policy#Pending changes protection, the policy determining which pages can be given pending changes protection by administrators. — Coffee // have a cup // beans // 07:24, 5 May 2016 (UTC)

Hello I need help

please revert back to me when you get this58.106.70.43 (talk) 17:14, 26 May 2016 (UTC)

Rollback granted

Hi MartinZ02. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

• Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
• Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
• Rollback should never be used to edit war.
• If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
• Use common sense.

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Widr (talk) 20:00, 26 May 2016 (UTC)

RfA

Hi. We appreciate your enthusiasm, but it might be an idea to wait a while before getting involved in parts of Wikipedia that you may still not fully understand for another year or two. In the meantime, here is something for you to read: Wikipedia:Advice for RfA voters, and although written several years ago this set of criteria for admin candidates has become a work of reference. If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask me on my talk page. Happy editing! --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 1:59 pm, Today (UTC+7)
