I noticed this on ANI, and had a question: ''"Then we should remove it from the ton of admins (including myself) who use rollback for non-vandalism."'' - do you use edit summaries when carrying out rollback of non-vandalism? I use edit summaries to explain my edits, but then I suppose an edit summary could be misleading. I do find it annoying when checking a diff with no edit summary and having to work out why something was done. Do you think the lack of useful edit summary in rollback outweighs the convenience?

==Hypokritz==

Hi, I tried to post a section on Emerald Ridge High School's page about our student run comedy club, which is an incredibly influential part of going to ERHS for a lot of people. Hypokritz is one of the things that people think of when they think of ER and it has been around since 2000. Almost a decade. Please re-post my posting, or at least tell me why it was deleted! If the Athletics gets a part, I think it is only fair for The Arts to have their say! Thank you very much,

Raffles Girls School (Secondary)

Hi,

The edit I put in is supported by 2 references from the main newspaper in Singapore. Considering that most of rest of the article is quotidian, unreferenced or both, I find the repeated revertings of my edit bizarre and puzzling, but I don't have the time to get caught in edit wars/mediation.

Daniel Coburn

Majorly

The changes I made were factual, Daniel Coburn was never demoted by Lt. Pantano, A lieutenant cannot do that on the spot, it has to go through court marshall or NJP, Also, I was in 2/2 Echo company at the time and I am friends with Dan. The source used to get information on this person origonally was poor, it is a book written by Lt. Pantano which screws up many facts about our tour in Iraq.

Do I need to do this from home, if it is the campus computer being the problem, I could do that, if not, what do I need to do to have this info corrected without you guys overturning it immediately without looking in to the actual facts? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 158.135.1.92 (talkcontribs) 22:03, 23 Jan 2008

Re: Thrug

This same user that you just blocked vandalized [[Image:Asimov.jpg]], and I do not know how to restore the earlier version of the image. If you can assist me, I would appreciate it immensely. Cheers! ---RepublicanJacobiteThe'FortyFive' 00:56, 26 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

All fixed! There's a revert button on the left of the upload table. Regards, Majorly (talk) 01:00, 26 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you, sir! I have never had much to do with images here on Wiki, and so I was loathe to start experimenting. ---RepublicanJacobiteThe'FortyFive' 01:02, 26 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Looking at the image again, this is clearly not an image of Isaac Asimov, as it claims to be. Perhaps the image should be deleted entirely? ---RepublicanJacobiteThe'FortyFive' 01:07, 26 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for participating in my RfA!

Thanks for participating in my RfA!
Although it failed 43/27/0, I'm happy because the outcome has been very helpful in many meaningful ways. Moreover you alerted me to your understandable concerns about disruption. I will take heed and carefully address them. All the best, Gwen Gale (talk) 05:28, 26 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Happy Melon's RFA

Have you ever considered that perhaps you do not love England too much, nor too little, but actually just the right amount? Darkspots (talk) 20:21, 26 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

RFA

Majorly, Thank you for your support in my RFA which passed 43/0/1. I would like to especially thank Bibliomaniac15 for being my nominator and admin coach. I would also like to thank Rudget for being my co-nominator. I'm sure that I can live up to the community's expectations as an administrator, and not totally mess everything up. Thanks again for your support! Malinaccier (talk) 17:12, 26 January 2008 (UTC) [reply]

Macrons

Hi Majorly,

I see you reverted User:198.37.18.232's addition of macrons to SPQR and indicated on the user's talk page that it was an unconstructive edit. Is there some policy that I'm unaware of? --Slashme (talk) 21:01, 26 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

His/her addition of an ä at the bottom prompted me to revert. Majorly (talk) 21:09, 26 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Vanadalism?

I don't think a big article based on one newspaper story and taking a chunk of Canadian history out of context really works. 209.217.66.171 (talk) 22:17, 26 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

re: congrats

User:Zeibura/Smile Thanks for the support in RfA, everything's going okay so far! See you in February, - Zeibura ( talk ) 08:48, 27 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Not Vandalism

If the problem I mentioned is not vandalism, then what is it? The Haunted Angel sent me a message, part of which said I will allow this information on the page after the deluxe edition has been released, or when I see a reliable source myself Notice he says HE will allow it when HE sees a reliable source HIMSELF. I gave him the information on where to find the source, and he's ignored it. He seems to think he's an administrator or something the way he's saying that HE will allow things. So if I'm not mistaken. If he'd found the information the same way I did, he would put it on unquestioned as he seems to think he's the administrator of the Cradle of Filth articles. I have the album in question, before it's release. So I know the information to be valid. I've tld him how he can find the information, but chooses to ignore it, and continually remove my information. Alinblack (talk) 15:11, 27 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Huggle whitelist

Wouldn't it be better though having everything in the Wikipedia space? D.M.N. (talk) 15:14, 27 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it seems to work. Majorly (talk) 15:15, 27 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
OK. Anyway, I'm struggling to access the top header on this huggle page. The subpage for the banner, seemingly doesn't exist. D.M.N. (talk) 15:17, 27 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Rollback and edit summaries

I noticed this on ANI, and had a question: "Then we should remove it from the ton of admins (including myself) who use rollback for non-vandalism." - do you use edit summaries when carrying out rollback of non-vandalism? I use edit summaries to explain my edits, but then I suppose an edit summary could be misleading. I do find it annoying when checking a diff with no edit summary and having to work out why something was done. Do you think the lack of useful edit summary in rollback outweighs the convenience?
