March 2009

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed maintenance templates from Tertiary color. When removing maintenance templates, please be sure to either resolve the problem that the template refers to, or give a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, as your removal of this template has been reverted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you.

Your recent addition has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

See here, you undid user Crazy4metalica who removed some copyvio. Martin451 (talk) 23:52, 11 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, pretty much the entire segment you re-added was a direct copy from MTV. I wouldn't have minded but C4M put that in two edit summaries. Don't add (c) material. Darrenhusted (talk) 23:54, 11 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Barnstar!

The Anti-Vandalism Barnstar
I noticed your prompt revert when someone blanked today's featured article, Emery Molyneux. It is always important to keep our pages in good condition, and this is especially true on the article we present to readers as our best foot forward for the day. With a quick review of your contributions, I see that you've removed or resolved a great deal of vandalism in your time here on Wikipedia, and I want to present you with this barnstar as a small token of appreciation for your hard work. Thank you! – Luna Santin (talk) 01:13, 15 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Radio

Hey Brandon - good job on that IP vandal on the Radio page. I went ahead and reported him to WP:AIV and he is currently blocked for 31 hours.

Probably should keep an eye on it starting tomorrow evening sometime - see if he comes back and decides to retaliate.

Regards and thanks! --Manway (talk) 01:36, 15 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hidden messages navbox

Hi Brandon, thanks for your work cleaning up the {{hidden messages}} template. Just for your information, these templates are called navboxes, not infoboxes. It's not a big deal, but your edit summary here confused me until I opened the diff and had a look. rʨanaɢ talk/contribs 23:41, 18 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I get those confused sometimes. The template was in a non-standard format so I changed it. Sorry if I got you confused. --Brandon5485 23:43, 18 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
No worries, I figured it out once I looked at the edit. I was just confused when I saw "infobox" in the edit summary. Either way, it's not a major problem; I just thought I'd give you that tidbit of info. Best, rʨanaɢ talk/contribs 23:49, 18 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Your rollback request

Hello Brandon5485, I have granted rollback rights to your account in accordance with your request. Please be aware that rollback should be used to revert vandalism/spam/blatantly unconstructive edits, and that using it to revert anything else (such as by revert-warring or reverting edits you disagree with) can lead to it being removed from your account...sometimes without any warning, depending on the admin who becomes aware of any misuse. If you think an edit should require a reason for reverting, then don't use rollback and instead, use a manual edit summary. For practice, you may wish to see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback. Good luck. Acalamari 23:06, 15 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks :D --Brandon5485 23:06, 15 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Warning

Hi

Apologies for the warning, we edited at the same time and HG warned you instead of the vandal! Please accept my apologies --5 albert square (talk) 23:27, 15 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It's fine :). I was a little worried that I did something wrong though. --Brandon5485 23:30, 15 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
No, you didn't. When more than two editors edit one page at the same time, Huggle usually refuses to revert the page or asks if you want to revert the edit by whitelisted user 5 albert square etc. I know I definitely didn't get any warning about you, so it must be a mistake on Huggle's part :) --5 albert square (talk) 23:37, 15 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
OK understood. Maybe this problem w/HG should be reported though. --Brandon5485 23:39, 15 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I actually wouldn't know who to report it to but I can honestly say that in the few months I've had Huggle that's never happened before. It's more than likely you reverted and then I reverted and Huggle just got confused --5 albert square (talk) 23:56, 15 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Ah OK. Yeah I don't know where to report it either. I was just wondering if you knew, then maybe they could look into it or something. It really wasn't that big a deal though. --Brandon5485 00:32, 17 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for stopping me.

I knew I was about to cross the line. I've been on here for a long time, yet don't know how the site works. Can you help me with that person about vandalism?--Yugiohmike2001 (talk) 23:41, 27 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

FCW

Brandon, I am really trying to show the guy what is wrong in the "corrections" that he made. But I do not know why he do not understand it. Please, I am here just to help not to do some prejudice. Thanks for the advice.
