Vandal warnings

[edit]

Welcome, and thanks for doing recent changes patrol. You may want to check out WP:RCP#Vandalism for a selection of warnings that can be applied in various situation. The "this is the only warning you will receive" warning (such as you applied here has limited application, and personally speaking, I almost never block people if that is, in fact, the only warning they have received. Cheers. Dina 20:48, 3 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hello

[edit]

Hi. I just thought I'd mention that it might be a good idea to check the last few edits to an article (if possible) when patrolling recent changes, rather than just the last edit. I say this because I noticed you revert some vandalism on the Rugrats article, but the version you reverted to had also been vandalised. It looks like two accounts were working together to produce vandalism in quick succession, hoping that you'd do exactly what you did! Have a look at the history of the Rugrats page and you'll see it. So, while you do sterling work at recent changes, it would be even better if you could check the last couple of edits before the edit you're reverting :-) Hope that's doable. Skittle 23:20, 12 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the tip. I often check more than just the edit I'm reverting, but not always and it is helpful to see how that particular scheme works. The real problem, though, is that there were two different kinds of vandalism ... one obvious and one not as obvious. The second one that I didn't revert was far more subtle. --Drtillberg 02:44, 13 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there. I have gone ahead and reverted User:Rytude's edits at School of Oriental and African Studies. The material is copyvio from the SOAS website. Cheers. — mholland (talk) 15:34, 15 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I should have known. Thanks. --Drtillberg 18:25, 15 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Mark Reynolds, master of the universe

[edit]

I just came across the guy that created the article that you found for Mark Reynolds, the master of the universe. He seems to have created another one, Mark L. Reynolds, before the first was deleted. Imagine if someone proposed merging them :-) Nyttend 21:17, 21 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I saw that after you found the second page. I thought I was seeing double. --Drtillberg 21:19, 21 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Brotherhood 2.0

[edit]

Howdy. This is my first real article addition to WP so maybe you can help me. (Just as a reminder for you, you marked it for removal.) I'm trying to find citations and web references that are not from blog sources (or doesn't that matter?), but I don't see how this is an extension of the vlog project. I don't see a real difference between the articles for Brotherhood 2.0 and The Office, for example. What should I be doing to keep the page from being deleted, or is that simply not possible? It's an interesting sociological project that's becoming more and more popular and I think it's noteworthy. And no, it's not my vlog. :-) -Mangler 23:52, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Adrianne Wadewitz edit-a-thons in Southern New England

As you may have already heard, the Wikipedia community lost an invaluable member of the community last month.

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article List of major cities in U.S. lacking Amtrak service is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of major cities in U.S. lacking Amtrak service until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. ~ RobTalk 22:18, 28 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

New deal for page patrollers

[edit]

Hi DRTllbrg,

In order to better control the quality of new pages, keep out the spam, and welcome the genuine newbies, the current system we introduced in 2011 is being updated and improved. The documentation and tutorials have also been revised and given a facelift. Most importantly a new user group New Page Reviewer has been created.

Under the new rule, you may find that you are temporarily unable to mark new pages as reviewed. However, this is nothing to worry about - most current experienced patrollers are being accorded the the new right without the need to apply, and if you have significant previous experience of patrolling new pages, we strongly encourage you to apply for the new right as soon as possible - we need all the help we can get, and we are now providing a dynamic, supportive environment for your work.

Find out more about this exiting new user right now at New Page Reviewers and be sure to read the new tutorial before applying. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 04:29, 13 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  4. Real-Time Recent Changes App for Android
  5. Shortcut for patrollers to last changes list

Further, there are more than 20 proposals related to Watchlists in general that you may be interested in reviewing. (and over 260 proposals in all, across many aspects of wikis)

Notification

[edit]

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in pseudoscience and fringe science. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Warning

[edit]

Please carefully read the notifications I gave you above, making you aware of the Discretionary Sanctions applicable to topics covering pseudoscience, which includes the Plandemic article. The article is also subject to Discretionary Sanctions covering US politics, and also Community sanctions covering Covid-19. You can see the sanctions applicable to the article listed at Talk:Plandemic. I see you have been edit warring to make substantial changes to the that article, after having been reverted. Please stop doing that, start a discussion, and seek consensus at the article talk page instead. If you try to force your desired changes in without getting a prior consensus, you could be sanctioned under these Discretionary Sanctions, or simply blocked for edit warring. Thank you for your attention. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 06:49, 28 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Covid-19 sanctions

[edit]
This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

Please carefully read this information:

A community discussion has authorised the use of general sanctions for pages related to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
The specific details of these sanctions are described here.

Broadly, general sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimise disruption in controversial topic areas. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to these topics that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behaviour, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. An editor can only be sanctioned after he or she has been made aware that general sanctions are in effect. This notification is meant to inform you that sanctions are authorised in these topic areas, which you have been editing. Before continuing to edit pages in these topic areas, please familiarise yourself with the general sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.
