==Your recent edits==
[[Image:Information.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]] Hello and [[Wikipedia:Welcoming committee/Welcome to Wikipedia|welcome to Wikipedia]]. When you add content to [[Wikipedia:Talk page|talk pages]] and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to [[Wikipedia:Signatures|sign your posts]]. There are two ways to do this. Either:
# Add four [[tilde]]s ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ) at the end of your comment; or
# With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ([[File:Insert-signature.png|15px|link=Wikipedia:How to sign your posts]] or [[File:Signature icon.png|15px|link=Wikipedia:How to sign your posts]]) located above the edit window.
This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you.<!-- Template:uw-tilde --> --[[User:SineBot|SineBot]] ([[User talk:SineBot|talk]]) 04:08, 23 October 2014 (UTC)

Dear Fimatic, Thank you very much indeed for your very kind comments. One usually only hears anything when one's been judged to have done something wrong. Excellent to receive such positive comments from Wikipedia for once. Very much appreciated. All the very best. {{unsigned|Vietnamvat}}
:{{ping|Vietnamvat}} No problem! I've been curating pages, and when you mark pages as reviewed, there's a little space which has an option for you to type a message to the page creator. Once you review it, that message gets automatically sent to the creator's talk page - I've been leaving some notes.

== Rollback ==

[[Image:Wikipedia Rollbacker.svg|right|130px]]
Hi Fimatic. After reviewing your request for rollback, I have <span class="plainlinks">[//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=rights&user=&page=User%3A{{urlencode:{{PAGENAME}}}} enabled]</span> rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:
*Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing [[WP:TW|Twinkle]].
*Rollback should be used to revert ''clear'' cases of [[WP:VAND|''vandalism'']] ''only'', and not [[WP:AGF|good faith edits]].
*Rollback should never be used to [[WP:EDITWAR|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 [[User talk:Beeblebrox|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! [[User:Beeblebrox|Beeblebrox]] ([[User talk:Beeblebrox|talk]]) 19:21, 9 November 2014 (UTC)<!-- Template:Rollbackgiven3-->
:{{ping|Beeblebrox}} Okay! I read WP:ROLLBACK before submitting my request, so I already know what it's used for and when you shouldn't use it. This'll make fighting vandalism easier for me; thanks! :) [[User:Fimatic|-'''<span style="color:#7094FF">Fim</span><span style="color:#4775FF">atic</span>''']] <sup>([[User talk:Fimatic|talk]] &#124; [[Special:Contribs/Fimatic|contribs]])</sup> 22:28, 9 November 2014 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited [[Hannover War Cemetery]], you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page [[Britain]].

== BART to Oakland International Airport ==

Hello Firmatic, I understand your concern on the BART article. The reason I did the timely changes since the BART to Oakland International Airport is opening to the public on November 22. Many sections under BART to OAK had to be removed since the project is completed and will be opened to the public in a few hours. Please keep in account, I'm a beginner of editing Wikipedia articles and wasn't too aware of the number of edits that showed on the Wikipedia log.

The section under "BART to Oakland International Airport Automated Guideway Transit" article redirect is incorrect and was changed to "BART to Oakland International Airport" but you reverted back. {{unsigned|Salv007}}
:{{re|Salv007}} Okay, sorry! It's just that you removed a substantive amount of content without explaining why, so I reverted it and gave you the <nowiki>{{Uw-delete1}}</nowiki> template.

== Orphan tag on a new article you patrolled ? ==

Yesterday I created a few articles, one of them [[Søren Peter Kristensen]].

Hours later it was patrolled (by you), and received an orphan tag.

However while it was created as an orphan, another page was linking to it in less than 3 minutes.

(Also, within seconds from its creation, the article had a link to its Danish translation).

Is it not a glitch in the review tool ([[Wikipedia:Page Curation]]), that an actual reviewer
hours later ends up placing an at that time no longer applicable tag on the created article ?

(An editor can avoid triggering this issue by creating a redlink prior to creating the article, but the issue is still there.)

Thanks.

== People delete sort category ==

Hi Fimatic: Just a note that per the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/People]] page, it states, "Note: In most cases there is another more specific category than this one. Please use on these instead..." (scroll down on page for complete information). I noticed that in performing deletion sorting, you have added both the people delete sort along with other, more specific people-related ones (e.g. Bands and musicians, such as at [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Paul Koehler]], [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Paul Marc Rousseau]]). Typically, the People delete sort page is used for subjects that don't fit into any of the other categories. Just a heads up, and thanks for your work in performing deletion sorting.

==Bulgarian transliteration==
Hello Fimatic,
the transliteration at [http://www.guide-bulgaria.com/SC/kardjali/kurdjali] is not the same as the one used for wikipedia (see [[Wikipedia:Romanization of Russian]]). Especially the j becomes a zh. [[User:Inwind|Inwind]] ([[User talk:Inwind|talk]]) 22:13, 21 December 2014 (UTC)

Hi there. You've added a POV tag to [[Maharashtra Swaraj Party]] but haven't elaborated about it on the Talk page. Please start a section on the talk page elaborating on the claimed neutrality dispute. Also, i've removed some material in the lead that sounded POV to me. Please do add/subtract. Thanks. [[User:Trinidade|Trinidade]] ([[User talk:Trinidade|talk]]) 17:42, 26 December 2014 (UTC)
:{{re|Trinidade}} Looking back on that, I actually never added a POV tag to that article; I added a category improve tag, as there were few categories. Was this message meant for [[User:Tom Morris|Tom Morris]] [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Maharashtra_Swaraj_Party&diff=639164735&oldid=630212042 (edit adding POV tag)]?

== Thanks ==

I just wanted to thank you for writing such positive comments towards me on the controversial article [[Talk:2014 Sydney hostage crisis]] ([https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk%3A2014_Sydney_hostage_crisis&diff=639285371&oldid=639283620]). My comments were querying a change to the name of the article, as every news report I have ever read about it has referred to it as some variation of the "chocolate shop hostage situation". Given that we have as many as 10-15 hostages in Sydney every single year, and there was another one in Sydney the day after this (which also made nationwide news), I thought that the name might be a bit misleading, and might hide the article. Oddly, the anger I have had directed at me in relation to this is exclusively in relation to this edit [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Illridewithyou&diff=639271610&oldid=639264034] I made to the related [[illridewithyou]] article, which so far 5 people have agreed is not a [[BLP]] violation at all, as it is a direct quote from a verifiable source, including by the person themselves. I have had no less than 11 threats in relation to that one edit, and the related questioning as to why I received that threat. It was nice to see someone being a bit sensible and generally nice in what appears to be a very controversial article.

==[[101 Air Supply Unit SAOSC]]==
Would you kindly please explain [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=101_Air_Supply_Unit_SAOSC&diff=639270655&oldid=639080473 this] edit? Firstly, we are in the process of greatly expanding coverage of the South African Army, and for that we need [[WP:Red links]], in full conformance with policy. Secondly, should you wish to try to edit military articles, I would ask you to gain some familiarity with the terminology eg [[Ordnance]]. Please (a) conform with policy and do not remove redlinks, and (b) do your homework!! [[User:Buckshot06|Buckshot06]] [[User_talk:Buckshot06|(talk)]] 04:03, 30 December 2014 (UTC)
:{{re|Buckshot06}} First off, I'm sorry for that edit. As of now, I'm still rather new on Wikipedia, and I haven't read all of the policies (which I will very soon get to becoming familiar with, but I do know many of them). I hadn't been aware of the red-link policy yet, so thank you for familiarizing me with it. About the "spelling correction": I was working on a copyedit of the page, and I had copyedited 2 sections prior to that edit. When I was skimming the page for possible errors, I had noticed that in the lead. To be honest, I'm not too familiar with some military terms, and it's true that I probably should look up some of the related terminology before editing military articles. However, I'm not planning to work on military articles often, I was editing that page as a copyedit, as stated earlier. I wasn't very familiar with the Ordnance term at the time of the edit, so I "corrected" the mistake because I thought that the word was a typo of ordinance. Again, sorry for that edit, and I hope this got it sorted out.

Adminship again

I believe you said you (along with Wifione) were planning on nominating me for adminship sometime around New Year's. Is there a reason that you have not done so yet? Everymorning talk 02:06, 11 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

(talk page stalker) @Everymorning: Might have something to do with this, I don't think it's a good time for an admin to co-nom when there's an ArbCom case against them. I'd be glad to co-nom you, but the problem is I'm not exactly a VIP here. (Hope you don't mind me talk page stalking, Fimatic, I didn't know if you knew about the case.) --AmaryllisGardener talk 02:12, 11 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Everymorning and AmaryllisGardener: AmaryllisGardener is partly correct- but we were also waiting a bit more until your CSD log went clear, and when your AIV/RFPP/UAA reports were mostly accurate. After this has happened, I'm likely going to email you to ask what your answers to the RFA questions would be. -Fimatic (talk | contribs) 16:02, 11 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
