User:Possum

After a long wikibreak, I'd like to return and continue my anti-vandalism efforts. I'm familiar with the relevant policies and believe I can once again be a valued editor — Possum (talk) 17:08, 7 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
 Done. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 17:22, 7 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

User:Gjirokastra15

I have contributed to Wikipedia since April 2014 with a bit less than 400 edits . I strongly believe that i am fairly aware and knowledgeable of the Wikipedia Rules and policies . I would like to get involved more in Wikipedia mainly in economic articles and economic indicators of the respective countries ( specifically Europe and especially countries that are in the Balkan peninsula ) because i have noticed that the figures are either outdated OR intentionally inflated or minimized . I strongly believe that this affects the trustworthiness of Wikipedia as a whole but even more specifically as a medium for precise economic indicators . If however i do not meet the minimum requirements for now , i can re apply later . Best regards , Gjirokastra15 (talk) 18:30, 27 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
(Non-administrator comment) From the reason given, I doubt that the editor is fully aware what this permission is for. Also see the talk page of the editor where multiple content disputes can be seen. Zhaofeng Li [talk... contribs...] 14:30, 29 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I truly think that you are assuming something non existent , i can guarantee you that i am fully aware of it . Last but not least , i have not multiple content disputes as you say , there is only one that can be considered as such with the user mingling that was changing the census results for religious propaganda ( needless to say he or she was in a war edit with 4 other editors regarding this same matter ) . If you do see my contributions history you will see that i always go for consensus in the talk page first , when there is a matter of conflicting opinions , this process has made me know how to operate as per consensus and good faith . Thought to give my version of the story , if however such will be the opinion of the admins as well , maybe then it is about time for me to reflect .

@Gjirokastra15:, can you provide 3 diffs below as examples of pages under pending changes review you have contributed to? — xaosflux Talk 17:07, 29 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I requested for this right, 3 months ago but was declined. Since then, I had been a valuable editor with over 30 pages created. I also fuction here as anti-vandalist with a rollback right. I will be glad if my request is given a consideration Wikicology (talk) 11:02, 29 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Pinging @MusikAnimal: who declined the prior request. — xaosflux Talk 17:10, 29 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
(Non-administrator comment) I doubt that this user knows what the pending changes bit is for. In their prior request for it they stated that the bit would enable them to improve their efficiency and output, without mentioning what it actually allowed them to do.

I have no idea of why you made such a nonsequitur comment above. How does a comment made over three months ago relevant to the current request (assuming that wikicology was naive then)? Of course I need the tool for backlog management. It will enable me to review and accept any unreviewed pending changes. Since my edit here focuses on vandalism and biography of a living person (a project I had created over 30 articles). I need the tool to ensure that the policy on living people are not violated either by addition of copyright content or other inappropriate content. (all of which are the reasons for the reviewing process). Wikicology (talk) 03:56, 30 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
 Done Thanks for the ping. I'd like to first say sorry if I seem rude for doing such a thorough critical review of your contributions. You just appear to have had some competency issues in the past. For starters, I think you're English may be too poor to be reviewing at AfC. This article seems to have a moderately acceptable tone, when you claimed it did not. You also claimed it was unsourced, when there's clearly a total of six sources. Granted this example is from September, and you don't seem to be active at AfC anymore anyway, but I thought I'd point it out.
Your anti-vandal activity appears to be focused on notable alumni sections of articles. I agree with most of your reverts, but I wouldn't classify many of them as outright vandalism. There is a "good faith" revert option with Twinkle you should probably use more often. Also, you should try to be more disciplined about warning vandals. Twinkle has features to expedite this process. Finally, to clarify, I don't think you've actually utilized your rollback right a single time – you've just been using Twinkle to undo changes (nothing wrong with this). So there is some evidence that you may not be fit for advanced permissions, but in general I think you've grown to be a more competent Wikipedian, and you'll know whether an edit is acceptable or not. There is very little damage one can do with the pending changes reviewer right, and it is not by any means a "status". Thanks for your willingness to help, and if you ever need advice about anything don't hesitate to ask. — MusikAnimal talk 19:30, 30 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I feel like I've established a track record and would like to help clear out the backlog I see on many articles with this kind of protection enabled. StewdioMACK (talk) 13:20, 29 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
