January 2020
Hello. Regarding the recent revert you made to Peter Wright (darts player): you may already know about them, but you might find Wikipedia:Template messages/User talk namespace useful. After a revert, these can be placed on the user's talk page to let them know you considered their edit inappropriate, and also direct new users towards the sandbox. They can also be used to give a stern warning to a vandal when they've been previously warned. Thank you. Pkbwcgs (talk) 21:48, 2 January 2020 (UTC)
- Yeah, Im well aware of them, I just can't be bothered and don't want to find random talk pages on my watchlist that I forget to unwatch. Nixinova T C 22:36, 2 January 2020 (UTC)
- If you use Twinkle to revert vandalism, you can change your preferences at Wikipedia:Twinkle/Preferences to make sure that it doesn't add the pages you revert vandalism on your watchlist. Pkbwcgs (talk) 09:45, 3 January 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks! Nixinova T C 20:36, 3 January 2020 (UTC)
Recent speedy deletion tagging
You recently tagged a number of redirects to various decade pages with the reason "not the same thing". That may be true, but that is not one of the speedy deletion criteria. I have declined the speedy deletion requests. The criteria are intentionally narrow and strict, and a page that does not pretty clearly adhere to one (or more) of them should not be tagged for speedy deletion. You can take any redirect you think is not useful to WP:RFD. Twinkle can help form nominations if you so choose. DES (talk)DESiegel Contribs 21:38, 3 January 2020 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Hacking in the 2020s
A tag has been placed on Category:Hacking in the 2020s requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Liz Read!

- Hello, Nixinova,
- Do not remove deletion tags from pages you have created. The notice above is a courtesy message. Empty categories are deleted 7 days after they are originally tagged unless they fall within a small list of exceptions. Wikipedia guidelines do not allow for the creation categories in anticipation that they might be needed some time in the future. If the category no longer is empty during the 7 days after it is originally tagged, the tag is removed. If the category is deleted and, in the future, is needed, feel free to recreate it. Thank you.

Mike Moore references
You've twice removed all the citations I've added to the "honours" section. Can you replace. Thanks. MurielMary (talk) 03:24, 2 February 2020 (UTC)
- That's exactly what I'm doing, we were both editing the article at the same time so our edits overwrote each other, see WP:Edit conflict. Nixinova T C 03:25, 2 February 2020 (UTC)
