Warning vandals

Hi! I've warned the editor at Gregorio del Pilar for vandalism, but in the future, make sure you warn vandalism (either through the use of templates or with a talk page message), as they're typically a prerequisite to administrator intervention with blocks. Here's the bit of policy, with the templates. Apologies if you already knew this and I just beat you to the punch warning them! Happy editing! :) Schrödinger's jellyfish ✉ 07:27, 30 January 2024 (UTC)

A kitten for you!

Glad to see you around reverting vandals in recent changes! Hope you're enjoying anti-vandalism so far! :)

Thanks for the kitten! I am, it's strangely enjoyable, and RedWarn is incredily useful, thanks for letting me know about it! :) Shaws username (talk) 02:19, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

Double warns

Hi there, thanks for helping to patrol recent changes. Just a quick reminder to prevent this happening again, it's best to leave the warning to whomever reverted the edit of the user, otherwise we end up double warning people for the same thing, which is confusing for everyone. Obviously in a case where a RC patroller isn't warning people, it's best to fill in for them and advise them on their talk page, but otherwise, best to avoid the dogpile :) Synorem (talk) 03:08, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

I do try not to, I don't know if you use RedWarn, reverting an edit with it brings up the warning options automatically. The majority of the time it will stop reverting if someone else already has, but a few times it acts as if the other revert hasn't happened (they probably go throught at similar times, I'm not certain) and so it appears like it's gone through properly and I should warn, but in reality someone else has done it all already and I just need to take a moment to refresh the page, check if it really was me, and then warn.
In short, yes I should take the time to check becuase the person getting warned obviously doesn't know how it all happened, thanks for your message! :) Shaws username (talk) 03:23, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

2024 Leagues Cup

Hello Shaws username,

Sorry about the edits. I was trying to add the group tables in but was not able to get them to be displayed successfully. If you can do that, it would be nice. Thank you and have a great day. 47.153.148.108 (talk) 04:58, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

Insurrection Act

Hello! Just to notify you, I removed it because I created a full article on every invocation of the act. I'll explain in the summary this time. Personisinsterest (talk) 00:47, 3 February 2024 (UTC)

Ahh ok sorry, that makes perfect sense. Thanks! Shaws username (talk) 00:56, 3 February 2024 (UTC)

Cats and the Internet

You reverted my edit that said in the edit summary. I added some humor and puns/jokes. Even though it wasn't ruining the article at all and I wasn't vandalizing the article nor trying to ruin it one bit. I was just make it funny and improving it. 68.8.63.65 (talk) 68.8.63.65 (talk) 07:25, 3 February 2024 (UTC)

I did, unfortunately Wikipedia is designed to be an encyclopedia and jokes make it harder for people who want to read information to understand it. WP:Goodfaith is important, and to be clear, I don't think you did anything with the intention of vandalizing a page, but Wikipedia:Humor has a guide for it in articles.
I've seen a fair amount of people vandalizing pages for the sake of it and thinking that that's humor. It's a lot nicer to find someone who's put things in good faith that made me chuckle. Shaws username (talk) 07:48, 3 February 2024 (UTC)
Also, Wikipedia:List of jokes about Wikipedia happily exists as a page designed for jokes. Shaws username (talk) 07:51, 3 February 2024 (UTC)

Answer

Hello, you seem to be first, as it's my first day knowing SWViewer. My native wiki is pl-wiki. There should probably an option to auto-warn as I know that program, so I'll just quickly turn it on. Thank you very much for letting me know that.

I will quickly make a redirection for my Polish discussion page from that English one, just to have it unified.

Thanks for letting me know once again and have a good day! Karol739 (talk) 17:53, 8 February 2024 (UTC)

You're welcome, and have a good day too! Shaws username (talk) 17:58, 8 February 2024 (UTC)

Deprodding of Bodrigan

I have removed the {{proposed deletion/dated}} tag from Bodrigan, which you proposed for deletion. Please see article TALK.... If you still think this article should be deleted, please do not add {{proposed deletion}} back to the page. Instead, feel free to list it at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion. Thanks! Rupples (talk) 06:22, 13 February 2024 (UTC)

Deprodding of Bodwannick

I have removed the {{proposed deletion/dated}} tag from Bodwannick, which you proposed for deletion. (I've added a source and more are available). If you still think this article should be deleted, please do not add {{proposed deletion}} back to the page. Instead, feel free to list it at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion. Thanks! Rupples (talk) 06:39, 13 February 2024 (UTC)

Deprodding of Chynhale

I have removed the {{proposed deletion/dated}} tag from Chynhale, which you proposed for deletion. (OS has this as a hamlet so may have presumed notability under WP:NPLACE. Needs further checking.). If you still think this article should be deleted, please do not add {{proposed deletion}} back to the page. Instead, feel free to list it at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion. Thanks! Rupples (talk) 08:18, 13 February 2024 (UTC)

Hi, Shaws username. Wanted to let you know that this article is being repurposed. The hamlet designation from Ordnance Survey put in as a source is for a different Chynale near Helston, which has a former Methodist Chapel and school, so there may be something to write about. The other location near Callestick, as you said, appears to be just a farm with barn conversions/holiday cottages, so your Prod has been beneficial in directing attention to this. Cheers. Rupples (talk) 08:57, 21 February 2024 (UTC)

That's good, thanks for letting me know! Shaws username . talk . 11:53, 21 February 2024 (UTC)

Deprodding of Tregoose

I have removed the {{proposed deletion/dated}} tag from Tregoose, which you proposed for deletion. (Nationally listed farmhouse building. Presumed notability see WP:GEOFEAT.). If you still think this article should be deleted, please do not add {{proposed deletion}} back to the page. Instead, feel free to list it at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion. Thanks!

User:Davud Patrioti

Hi there, I tried reasoning with this editor here [1], but I did not notice that you had already warned them and judging by their edit here [2] there's no point in trying to reason with them. If this continues please feel free to take this to ANI/AIV. Good day! Bingobro (Chat) 11:08, 17 February 2024 (UTC)

Question

Hi, I'm writing because of your post on my discussion page. How can I set auto-warning in SWViewer? Regards, Karol739 (talk) 21:41, 24 February 2024 (UTC)

Hey, I've never used it so I might be wrong (if I am, sorry) the manual for it says you can use "Rollback with summary" to give warnings once they've been set up on your configs page. It looks like they might come pre-installed but I'm not sure. I hope that helps! Shaws username . talk . 21:52, 24 February 2024 (UTC)
Ok, thanks for helping me! Karol739 (talk) 21:56, 24 February 2024 (UTC)
