== Pending changes reviewer granted ==

[[File:Wikipedia Reviewer.svg|right|130px]]
Hello. Your account has been granted the "{{mono|pending changes reviewer}}" userright, allowing you to [[WP:RVW|review other users' edits]] on pages protected by pending changes. The list of articles awaiting review is located at [[Special:PendingChanges]], while the list of articles that have pending changes protection turned on is located at [[Special:StablePages]].

Being granted reviewer rights neither grants you status nor changes how you can edit articles. If you do not want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time.

''See also:''
*[[Wikipedia:Reviewing]], the guideline on reviewing
*[[Wikipedia:Pending changes]], the summary of the use of pending changes
*[[Wikipedia:Protection policy#Pending changes protection]], the policy determining which pages can be given pending changes protection by administrators.<!-- Template:Pending changes reviewer granted --> — [[User:Xaosflux|<span style="color:#FF9933; font-weight:bold; font-family:monotype;">xaosflux</span>]] <sup>[[User talk:Xaosflux|<span style="color:#00FF00;">Talk</span>]]</sup> 02:37, 16 February 2016 (UTC)

== Rollback granted ==

[[Image:Wikipedia Rollbacker.svg|right|130px]]
Hi JFG.  After reviewing your request for "{{mono|rollbacker}}", I have <span class="plainlinks">[//en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/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:Widr|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:Widr|Widr]] ([[User talk:Widr|talk]]) 12:45, 17 April 2016 (UTC)<!-- Template:Rollbackgiven3-->
:Many thanks! I'll be sure to use the privilege wisely. — [[User:JFG|JFG]] <sup>[[User talk:JFG|talk]]</sup> 13:12, 17 April 2016 (UTC)

== Page mover granted ==

[[File:Wikipedia page mover.svg|right|80px]]
Hello, JFG. Your account has been [//en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=rights&user=&page=User%3AJFG granted] the "{{mono|extendedmover}}" user right, either following a request for it or demonstrating familiarity with working with article names and [[Wikipedia:Moving a page|moving pages]]. You are now able to rename pages without leaving behind a [[Wikipedia:Redirect|redirect]], and move [[Wikipedia:Subpages|subpages]] when moving the parent page(s).

Please take a moment to review [[Wikipedia:Page mover]] for more information on this user right, especially [[Wikipedia:Page mover#Suppress redirect criteria|the criteria for moving pages without leaving redirect]]. When you move a page, please remember to correct any double-redirects and make link corrections where necessary. It is also very important that no one else be allowed to access your account, so you should consider taking a few moments to [[Wikipedia:User account security|secure your password]]. As with all user rights, be aware that if abused, or used in controversial ways without consensus, your page mover status [[Wikipedia:Page mover#Criteria for revocation|can be revoked]].

Useful links:
* [[Wikipedia:Requested moves]]
* [[:Category:Articles to be moved]], for article renaming requests awaiting action.

If you do not want the page mover right anymore, post [[Wikipedia:Requests for permissions/Page mover|here]], or just let me know.

== Template editor granted ==

[[File:Wikipedia Template editor.svg|right|130px]]
Your account has been granted the "{{mono|templateeditor}}" user permission, allowing you to edit [[WP:TEMPLATE|templates]] and [[WP:MODULE|modules]] that have been protected with [[WP:TEMP-P|template protection]]. It also allows you to bypass the [[MediaWiki:Titleblacklist|title blacklist]], giving you the ability to create and edit [[WP:EDITNOTICE|editnotices]]. Before you use this user right, please read '''[[Wikipedia:Template editor]]''' and make sure you understand its contents. In particular, you should read the section on [[Wikipedia:Template editors#Wise template editing|wise template editing]] and the [[Wikipedia:Template editor#Criteria for revocation|criteria for revocation]].

You can use this user right to perform maintenance, answer edit requests, and make any other simple and generally uncontroversial edits to templates, modules, and edinotices. You can also use it to enact more complex or controversial edits, '''after''' those edits are first made to a test sandbox, and their technical reliability as well as their [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] among other informed editors has been established. If you are willing to process [[Wikipedia:Edit requests|edit requests]] on templates and modules, keep in mind that you are taking responsibility to ensure the edits have consensus and are technically sound.

This user right gives you access to some of Wikipedia's most important templates and modules; it is critical that you edit them wisely and that you only make edits that are backed up by consensus. It is also very important that no one else be allowed to access your account, so you should consider taking a few moments to [[Wikipedia:User account security|secure your password]].

If you do not want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time.

== Time for an RfA? ==

With your work in different maintenance areas, and given the current [[WP:RFA]] climate, you should be able to pass a request for adminship easily. Have you ever thought of running? [[User:Feminist|<span style="color:DarkMagenta">f</span>]][[User talk:Feminist|<span style="color:DarkMagenta">eminist</span>]] 05:10, 30 January 2017 (UTC)
:{{re|Feminist}} Thanks for your consideration. So far, I have not felt the need to wield admin tools beyond the template editor and page mover rights that I already obtained. I do enjoy settling disputes and finding common ground between opposing editors, however I fear that the admin bit would push me to spend more time on the drama boards, which frankly is a somewhat depressing perspective. In that context I prefer being mediator than judge. I'll be sure to remember your sponsorship if I reconsider some day. — [[User:JFG|JFG]] <sup>[[User talk:JFG|talk]]</sup> 06:18, 30 January 2017 (UTC)

== Donald Trump – A barnstar for you! ==

{{Trump Barnstar|1=Thank you, [[User:JFG|JFG]], for your numerous well-tempered<br/>contributions to Donald Trump related articles.<br/>--[[User:FeralOink|FeralOink]] ([[User talk:FeralOink|talk]]) 19:38, 26 March 2017 (UTC)}}

I noticed your activity on the dossier talk page today. I then circled back around, and saw how much work you had done in the past six months, on expanding and improving Wikipedia through your contributions on Donald Trump-related articles. I commend you for maintaining neutrality in your extensive work. Very few editors have been able to do that. 

After briefly scanning your talk page this morning, I was deeply moved by your appropriately gentle rebuke to another editor, where you said this: "On a side note, perhaps you shouldn't have called the boy a "little Trumpkin" (you know, BLP on Talk pages, general lack of irony among some contributors, und so weiter…)."  (I am a woman with no children and a deceased husband. It warms my cold heart whenever I see Melania and her little son. She loves him very much.) Your deft use of humor, and striking the right tone, is rare and an important part of contributing to Wikipedia. Thank you for your good work.

If you wish to remove or hat any of this rather emotional outburst, feel free to do so. I hope you keep the Trump barnstar proudly displayed. I am a member of the Donald Trump Wikiproject, but I would have given you the barnstar even if I weren't, as I feel you have earned it!--[[User:FeralOink|FeralOink]] ([[User talk:FeralOink|talk]]) 19:52, 26 March 2017 (UTC)

:{{ping|FeralOink}} I endorse the barnstar. I took the gentle rebuke to heart and have refrained from any further reference to little Trumpkins, such as in [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Donald_Trump&diff=772283521&oldid=772282518 this edit summary]. &#8213;[[User:Mandruss|<span style="color:#775C57;">'''''Mandruss'''''</span>]]&nbsp;[[User talk:Mandruss|<span style="color:#AAA;">&#9742;</span>]] 12:24, 27 March 2017 (UTC)
::{{ping|Mandruss}} I laughed, and am still smiling, after reading that edit summary! "Gestating" :o) Wikipedia is fortunate to have you and JFG, as you are able to write about Donald Trump without becoming irrational. Many Internet denizens from the United States and western Europe either hate him or love him, with no middle ground!--[[User:FeralOink|FeralOink]] ([[User talk:FeralOink|talk]]) 07:45, 28 March 2017 (UTC)

:{{re|FeralOink}} Many thanks for your kind words; having raised two boys who are now ready to face the weird wide world, I have my own reasons for being sensitive to protection of minors from tabloidesque interest… I appreciate interacting with other well-tempered editors, and I wish you well in your continued efforts at improving the encyclopedia. — [[User:JFG|JFG]] <sup>[[User talk:JFG|talk]]</sup> 12:40, 27 March 2017 (UTC)

== New Page Reviewer granted ==

[[File:Wikipedia New page reviewer.svg|right|80px]]
Hi JFG. Your account has been added to the "<code>New page reviewers</code>" user group. Minor user rights  can now be accorded on  a time limited or probationary period, do  check  back at  [[WP:PERM]] in  case this concerns your  application. This user group allows you to review new pages through  the Curation  system and mark them as [[meta:Help:Patrolled edit|patrolled]], tag them for maintenance issues, or nominate them for deletion. The list of articles awaiting review is located at the [[Special:NewPagesFeed|'''New Pages Feed''']]. New page reviewing is vital to maintaining the integrity of the encylopedia. If you have not already done so, you '''must''' read the  tutorial at [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol|New Pages Review]], the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the [[Wikipedia:Deletion policy|deletion policy]]. If you need any help or want to discuss the process, you are welcome to use the [[Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Reviewers|'''new page reviewer talk page''']]. In addition, please remember:
*[[Wikipedia:Please do not bite the newcomers|Be nice to new editors]]. They are [[WP:AGF|usually]] not aware that they are doing anything wrong. Do  make use of the message feature when tagging  pages for  maintenance. so  that  they are aware.
*You will frequently be asked by users to explain why their page is being deleted. Please be formal and polite in your approach to them – even if they are not.
*If you are not sure what to do with a page, don't review it – just leave it for another reviewer.
*Accuracy is more important than speed. Take your time to patrol each page. Use the message feature to communicate with article creators and offer advice as much as possible. 
The reviewer right does not change your status or how you can edit articles. If you no longer want this user right, you also may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. In cases of abuse or persistent inaccuracy of reviewing, or long-term non  use,  (it  is a 'use-it-or-lose-it' access) the right may be withdrawn at administrator discretion.
