Please see My Archive

Andrew, you may wish to consider making a second account for use at public terminals. I did suspect that this was a case of an account being compromised and I'm sure you understand why it was necessary to indeff it. Sorry I wasn't around to unblock you but I work on GMT.

Dear sir, throwing the vandalism accusation at me, you have violated WP:AGF. Do you honestly believe that a longtime wikipedian, and admin at a sister project (ru.wikt) would fall as low as vandalizing articles? Please carefully study the paragraph in subject, and you will realize that I improved it, not vandalized. After that, I expect apology. -- Wesha (talk) 23:20, 19 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. After reviewing the edit history, I realize that I have accidentally deleted the "|thumb" off the Image: tag. Sorry about that. But nevertheless a technical mistake or typo doesn't make vandalism. In the future, please pay closer attention. Always ask yourself question, "why was this done?" -- Wesha (talk) 23:25, 19 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You are now a Reviewer

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 04:47, 20 June 2010 (UTC) [reply]

Orphaned non-free image File:Triserv-600.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Triserv-600.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

A tag has been placed on File:Bahá'í gardens by David Shankbone edit 2.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Be careful of what you revert[1] to <grin>. Granted the deletion had no edit summary, but the content and history is usually worth checking. Cheers. -- Tom N (tcncv) talk/contrib 01:36, 9 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. Your work is much appreciated. -- Tom N (tcncv) talk/contrib 01:40, 9 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

That the source is inaccurate or outdated? Or some other problem? Please clarify. Thanks. -- Tom N (tcncv) talk/contrib 02:10, 9 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

BLP and discussions

The BLP policy applies to article pages and to discussion pages like articles for deletion; there is nowhere on Wikipedia where it is appropriate to insult or defame living people. I've removed your vote in the discussion, feel free to repost it without the insults. Nathan T 14:09, 8 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I don't have a lot of WP-time this June, you can wait or ask someone else. Seonookim (What I've done so far) (I'm busy here) (Tell me your requests) 05:59, 11 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Write something - try and contribute to a DYK or GA. Take a look at WP:GAN and try and review someone's nomination about a subject you know something about. Writing content helps one appreciate the effort that is put into it. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 00:22, 17 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Try not to spend overwhelming amounts of time in areas which are sites of frequent conflict such as WP:AFD and WP:AN/I, especially if you have a short temper.
Lots of gnome work to do - what are you interested in? Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 00:26, 17 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
