Hello, I'm Rdp060707. An edit you recently made to Jimmy Wales seemed to be a test and has been removed. If you want more practice editing, the sandbox is the best place to do so. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. ----Rdp060707|Let's discuss about the plans 03:42, 11 April 2021 (UTC)

It was not a test? Just putting his full name there?

Oops. Anyways, no need for that. ----Rdp060707|Let's discuss about the plans 03:42, 11 April 2021 (UTC)

Fixed your talk page archiving

Hi! I took the liberty of fixing the auto-archiving settings at the top of this page. --rchard2scout (talk) 12:43, 20 July 2021 (UTC)

Thanks User:Rchard2scout! Just saw the diff. I haven't been active lately on Wikipedia lately. 747pilot (talk) 15:01, 30 July 2021 (UTC)

Hey, I just shortened the character stuff! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.7.210.33 (talk) 02:47, 25 December 2021 (UTC)

You were warned many times about blanking pages. If you really want to remove it then discuss it on the talk page. 747pilot (talk) 03:56, 25 December 2021 (UTC)

Covenant Chain

Greetings may it be well with you. Ske:no. I responded to your message to me. I want to add a source. How do I cite personal lived experience? I am Conestoga myself, and have lived this what I have written as have generations of Conestoga. I can try to dig up some sources used that I have read, but much of the information I provided is based on personal communications with Haudenosaunee people.

May it be well with you.

Please see here which discusses what is a valid source for Wikipedia. It explicitly says that "Some sources... an editor's own personal experience are prohibited", so you cannot add what you were going to add to the article unless you have a valid source. 747pilot (talk) 23:31, 25 December 2021 (UTC)

The Jews of Leeds

I agree we can't have two versions. Looking at them the Jews in version only has about half the text. I will put something on the talk page Philip Sugarman (talk) 21:15, 26 December 2021 (UTC)
I thought moving it would not cause duplicates to show up. I was pretty confused when I moved it because I thought when a page is moved the old page is redirected. Anyways, it's good to discuss the title. 747pilot (talk) 23:51, 26 December 2021 (UTC)

Who Do You Think You Are (Candlewick Green song) revert

I notice you reverted my edit of this article. As you didn't give an edit summary, I'm not sure you had some particular objection to my change, or if it somehow got caught up with a batch of twinkle vandalism reversions you were doing at the time -- four of them a minute, indeed. It'd be helpful if you did use edit summaries (even a terse one like "rvv", say), and to not mark such edits as "minor" when they're very much not (other than if you're reverting as "obvious vandalism").

Good job on the actual vandalism you are catching, but maybe a little more care is needed, even if at the expense of slightly less speed. 109.255.211.6 (talk) 15:10, 27 December 2021 (UTC)

I admit I was a bit too fast at that. Sorry about that. 747pilot (talk) 15:31, 27 December 2021 (UTC)
No problem. To err is human, but it takes a computer-- etc, etc. 109.255.211.6 (talk) 16:47, 27 December 2021 (UTC)

Pending changes reviewer granted

Hello. Your account has been granted the "pending changes reviewer" userright, allowing you to 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.

Rollback

Hi 747pilot. After reviewing your request, I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when using 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 trouble or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! FASTILY 03:56, 14 January 2022 (UTC)

Thanks! 747pilot (talk) 11:57, 14 January 2022 (UTC)
User:Fastily - Given this, I wonder whether perhaps this editor may need more seasoning before being granted rollback. https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?oldid=1065760326&diff=1065760444 --2603:7000:2143:8500:2C58:2B1E:F1B:5833 (talk) 04:58, 15 January 2022 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

The Barnstar of Diligence
Hello, 747! Thanks for your reversal of my recent edit in lymphadenopathy. I had mistakenly included it as a bacterial infection, which has been corrected. AssassinT90 (talk) 16:04, 14 January 2022 (UTC)

Seriously?

Did you read my edit summary? https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=User_talk:2603:7000:2143:8500:2C58:2B1E:F1B:5833&diff=cur

It is perfectly adequate. Kindly revert yourself. --2603:7000:2143:8500:2C58:2B1E:F1B:5833 (talk) 04:57, 15 January 2022 (UTC)

Done. 747pilot (talk) 04:58, 15 January 2022 (UTC)
Thanks. You may find it helpful to slow down or gain more experience, before reverting editors, to avoid mistakes like this. I see above it is not the first time of late. --2603:7000:2143:8500:2C58:2B1E:F1B:5833 (talk) 05:01, 15 January 2022 (UTC)

Please slow down

Hi 747pilot, please take care when reverting a user's edits, such as this [1]. I can see this is not the first time, so might I suggest that you finish your time at CVUA? (I can see you've already started, which is great!) Thank you, and I appreciate the work you're doing for the encyclopedia. xRENEGADEx (talk | contribs) 23:42, 15 January 2022 (UTC)

I understand and will continue my training at CVUA. I will take more care too. Thanks for letting me know. 747pilot (talk) 02:19, 16 January 2022 (UTC)

Recent removal on Jaffa

Hi 747. It's always hard being neutral of course. I added the ethnic cleansing note, without calling it that, because as it stood, there was no way to know that the people were expelled. There is a more lengthy if still airbrushed explanation on the main Jaffa page. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_Jaffa . As a mental exercise, if the taking of the Great Plains or the German taking of Poland was described without reference to slaughter or deportation, would that be considered neutral? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2603:7000:A202:7235:211E:15B7:CAFB:EBD (talk) 15:16, 16 January 2022 (UTC)

Reversion of edits on Nicolaus Otto

I am curious to know why you reverted changes by an IP-editor on Nicolaus Otto. One could argue that Otto was not the founder of Deutz but of its predecessor (before the name change), or that this is not what Otto was primarily known for, or that the fact is not actually mentioned on the page about Otto. But he was co-founder of the company that later was called Deutz AG, as I believe is sufficiently sourced on that page. The corresponding article in the German-language Wikipedia is also unambiguous about it. Mark in wiki (talk) 12:37, 20 January 2022 (UTC)

I was using SW Viewer and I couldn’t see the rest of the article. All I could see was the diff. 747pilot (talk) 03:49, 28 January 2022 (UTC)

East Broad Top Railroad edits

I am just adding some small information people should know before visiting the railroad so they don't get intp legal trouble for tresspassing — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wjohns19 (talk • contribs) 02:45, 22 January 2022 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia! I didn't think info about trespassing is encyclopedic, as this is usually known to everyone, so I reverted it. On Wikipedia there isn't mention of restricted areas in buildings usually. Anyways, Happy editing ! 747pilot (talk) 21:30, 22 January 2022 (UTC)

Deprodding of Lisa Greer

I have removed the {{proposed deletion/dated}} tag from Lisa Greer, which you proposed for deletion. The page is a biography and I think that means it can only be listed as a BLPPROD if there are no sources (and there are sources). 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! DaffodilOcean (talk) 03:42, 28 January 2022 (UTC)

Understood. Thanks for letting me know about the policy. 747pilot (talk) 03:48, 28 January 2022 (UTC)
It's listed out here WP:BLPPROD. DaffodilOcean (talk) 04:09, 28 January 2022 (UTC)
I just realized I was wrong - a biography of a living person can be nominated for a standard WP:PROD, I missed that line. Regardless, I stand by my removal of the PROD notice as I don't think deletion would be uncontroversial. DaffodilOcean (talk) 12:21, 28 January 2022 (UTC)
I see, no worries. 747pilot (talk) 12:30, 28 January 2022 (UTC)
