Welcome!

Hello, ThatIPEditor, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I greatly appreciate your efforts to fight vandalism on Wikipedia. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

If you find yourself cleaning up vandalism frequently, you might be interested in patrolling recent changes.

For the WikiProject on vandalism cleanup, see the Counter-Vandalism Unit.

To make vandalism reverts easier you can ask for the rollback feature to be enabled for your registered Wikipedia account.

Below are more pages related to vandalism:

Post order

Re your post at WP:COIN,lease see Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines, and perhaps this on threading We generally try not to disturb the chronological flow of a thread by adding to a post that has already been replied to. The easy way to keep things clear is to add to the end of the thread, without going back to edit or expand earlier posts. Possibly (talk) 04:44, 11 January 2021 (UTC)

@Possibly: Sorry about that, ok, I will read through the talk page guidelines, thank you!

"Notification"

[1] Is this a joke? That was already closed for being obviously retaliatory harassment. IHateAccounts (talk) 15:11, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

@IHateAccounts: It might be, but either way, it seems like the person who reported you forgot to place the template. I just did it for them. That's all ThatIPEditor (talk) 20:44, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
One more thing, I posted the notice before it got closed, and also give you a heads-up ThatIPEditor (talk) 20:48, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

G11 declined

Hello ThatIPEditor -- I'm confused as to why you tagged Draft:Cheriyam Hills as WP:G11 (promotional), as it did not seem to fit the criteria at all. I'm not seeing any other speedy criterion that applies in draftspace, either. Please reread the description before requesting deletion again. Regards, Espresso Addict (talk) 07:50, 15 January 2021 (UTC)

@Espresso Addict: Ah yes. That must have been an accident. I usually tag them in batches, where I open all of the pages that is G11, then, I would tag them all together. I must have opened it accidentally. I can assure you that would not happen again. Thank you! ThatIPEditor (talk) 18:52, 15 January 2021 (UTC)
I'm guessing Draft:Jacinto Subías (now moved to correct title) was the same problem? Please do be careful with batching; it must be very disconcerting and off-putting for an inexperienced editor to be working on a viable article that isn't promotional and get a speedy tag for no reason. Regards, Espresso Addict (talk) 08:19, 23 February 2021 (UTC)
@Espresso Addict: Must have been. In the future, I will use two windows, and dragging the ones that needs to be deleted into the other one. Also, I'l read the content more closely, in case if it was not the same issue. ThatIPEditor Talk · Contribs 08:25, 23 February 2021 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Draft:YOUNGGJNONi

Hello ThatIPEditor, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Draft:YOUNGGJNONi, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Not unambiguously promotional. You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you. GeneralNotability (talk) 03:37, 16 January 2021 (UTC)

No problemo. Sorry for the late response. Just a note to whoever sees this, it still ends getting g11 deleted. ThatIPEditor (talk) 12:59, 8 February 2021 (UTC)

Hi there! I noticed that you reverted an edit by IP 86.20.255.109 on this page with a note that it was for unexplained content removal, but the IP did state their reason ("rv spam link") and they were also correct in identifying the spam. Please be careful undoing edits, especially with automated or semi-automated tools. Thanks much! NekoKatsun (nyaa) 23:17, 18 February 2021 (UTC)

@NekoKatsun: Ahh okie. Looking in the edit, seemed like that the IP just removed the spam links, and the things that the spam links are about. Yeah, I origionally thought that the IP was removing citations. Thanks though! ThatIPEditor (talk) 23:54, 18 February 2021 (UTC)

Your GA nomination of Dog

Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Dog you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of Wretchskull -- Wretchskull (talk) 19:21, 15 March 2021 (UTC)

Your GA nomination of Dog

The article Dog you nominated as a good article has failed ; see Talk:Dog for reasons why the nomination failed. If or when these points have been taken care of, you may apply for a new nomination of the article.

Marking edits as vandalism

Please take care when marking edits as vandalism, as you did on the Superman: Red Son article here. The edit you reverted was not considered vandalism under Wikipedia policy. Wikipedia has a stricter definition of the word "vandalism" than common usage, and mislabeling edits as vandalism can discourage editors. For reference, in the animated adaptation of Red Son, the Bizarro clone is referred to as Superior Man. - Aoidh (talk) 01:08, 24 March 2021 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Draft:Icee Dan

Hello ThatIPEditor. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Draft:Icee Dan, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Not unambiguously promotional. Thank you. GedUK  16:09, 22 March 2021 (UTC)

Incorrect measurements of Pardosa Amentata.

Hi, I tried to edit the measurements on the information page, but for some reason it was undone. On the page, it has the Pardosa Amentata measuring 5-8cm, which is incorrect, as this should be 5-8mm. Thank you — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.233.153.89 (talk) 10:13, 22 March 2021 (UTC)

Ahh ok, I originally thought that it would be 5-8 cm long because, in the compare revisions, you can't see images. Sorry about that. Feel free to make the edit again :D ThatIPEditor Talk · Contribs 10:16, 22 March 2021 (UTC)

Rollback granted

Hi ThatIPEditor. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have temporarily enabled rollback on your account until 2021-06-20. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

  • Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
  • Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
  • Rollback should never be used to 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:Administrators' guide/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 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! Anarchyte (talk) 16:50, 19 May 2021 (UTC)

Tool tagging

Hi, just a note to say that when using a semi-automated tool, it is good and standard practice to ensure the edits are tagged so that other editors know that you have used a tool. These edits [2][3] have lacked a tag/marker of the tool used. You don't need to do anything too fancy, you can simply add a link to the script page in your edit summaries to prevent confusion. Hope this helps, ✨ Ed talk!06:06, 22 December 2021 (UTC)

Hey there, I didn't really know this was a thing when I changed it up. Thanks for reminding me. I'll be sure to add a link before my next RW action. I'm currently working on changing a lot of things with it, and I'll be sure to bundle it in. Thanks! ThatIPEditor Talk · Contribs 06:11, 22 December 2021 (UTC)
Thanks, you don't have to call it RedWarn btw, as long as you keep the copyright notices in the code ✨ Ed talk!02:01, 23 December 2021 (UTC)
