I know your heart was in the right place when you put all those notices about no footnotes etc but the fact is there were loads of footnotes. You just couldn't see them unless you were in edit mode. I had been editing when you came in and I made a mistake which made the footnotes disappear. They are all back now. Suggest in future, before acting so quickly, people might be in the process of editing or re-editing, have a look at the history page as well. I save often because of the possibility of electrical blackouts. As it was your edit clashed with my correction and I had to redo all the changes and resave. Another suggestion is maybe to vet the page after 24 hours for example because if you check the history and see the page was just created, it could be that the author is still working on the page, which was the case just now. Good luck. jefferyseow (talk) 07:39, 27 August 2008 (UTC)


 * My apologies; I must have accidentally refreshed "new pages" (I typically work from oldest to newest instead). I've run into a similar problem before, and in Firefox (and possibly other browsers), you can go back and copy the text out of the box and open a new edit. --chrylis (talk) 07:43, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

Notability - 2008 Orissa violence
Friend, could you spare some time and look at my request within the discussion?http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:2008_Orissa_violence Thanks, Recordfreenow (talk) 02:48, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

Rollback request
Hi Chrylis. You're off to a good start, but you've only very recently begun editing regularly. Edits like this one concern me—removing a "prod" is not vandalism. I'm not comfortable with granting you rollback just yet, but I will leave your request in place on the request-for-permissions page and another admin can take a look as well. Paul Erik (talk) (contribs) 03:12, 27 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Ah, I do see where you're coming from. Still, having never granted rollback rights, I'd prefer to wait for a more experienced admin to decide about that. Best, Paul Erik  (talk) (contribs) 03:20, 27 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Just a little more feedback, then. I'd suggest slowing down a little with the speedy-delete tags. Tags like this and this might make it look to other editors that you have not taken the time to read the speedy deletion criteria. Thanks. Paul Erik  (talk) (contribs) 05:06, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

Re: student groups
I think you have me confused with someone else (or I must've done the edits a while ago, cause I don't remember them). I've mostly been editing Calit2 and some facility-related articles. Could you give me an example of what you're talking about? --Cybercobra (talk) 03:24, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Ah, okay. Your mention of "student groups" is what threw me off. These are actually scholarly institutes. I created the article on Calit2 and decided to create+stub out the whole while I was at it. I'm not enough of an expert about any of them to explain them, so I just put what I could grok from their homepages, which wasn't much. Their names are fairly indicative of their fields of study though, but yes, ideally their articles should be made more informative. --Cybercobra (talk) 05:47, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

Notability of schools
I am not sure if there is an ongoing discussion. I just figured that if a high school gets significant coverage through secondary sources (i.e. reviewers, sports authorities, state institutions, etc.) it would be considered notable. I am pretty new at this, so I don't know all the guidelines or when something is considered "notable". Gregorybean (talk) 10:51, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

Your rollback request
Hi! I regret that I must inform you that your request for the rollback permission has been denied. You can discover why by checking the archives at Requests for permissions/Denied/August 2008. SoxBot X (talk) 12:00, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
 * You need more experience, that's all. I would though, like to applaud your liberal use of tags that request an article's improvement, not deletion. I daresay I'm not the only admin tired with the amount of people who treat new page patrol as a firing range. Once you've got some more experience under your belt, please do not hesitate to request rollback again - feel free to just drop by my talk page. Cheers. WilliamH (talk) 12:07, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

vente-privee.com
Good afternoon, I have modified the vente-privee.com article to give it a much more objective view point in regards to the general reader. I have also added two more references based in the UK (The Times and Drapers) which support and back up the reputation of the company. The issue still remains that the website in the UK has only just been launched (June) and therefore, unlike France, it has not yet had the time to build up a reputation amongst the UK Wikipedia readers. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you feel that the article is still in contravention of the Wikipedia code of practice. I am more than willing to additionally make any changes that might still be required. --Giraffe76 (talk) 15:34, 27 August 2008 (UTC)


 * I'm leaving the article tagged as reading like an advertisement, but the original was a blatant press release, and you've done a fine job in cleaning it up. I would suggest as a next step having a different person review it, as trying to edit your own writing can be tricky (your brain sees what you thought, not necessarily what you wrote!). --chrylis (talk) 15:58, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

Thank you for your help it is very much appreciated. I have taken the time to show the article to my entourage to try and obtain their input as to how I can adapt to the article to give it a purely objective tone. I was hoping that you feel the new format no longer warrants the ‘advertisement’ tag but I am more than willing to adapt the text in any way possible while integrating all new ideas. Thank you again for your assistance as the first time is not always easy :-) --Giraffe76 (talk) 09:00, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

James Chislom
Hey Chrylis,

Yes I did edit and blank the James Chislom page due to and incorrect spelling of his name. The article was moved to a page with correct spelling of his name. As for the article itself all information is accurate as it was give to me from stat sheets, teammates, and coaching staff from his playing days.

Online Land Planning
I have been working steadily on the building the Online Land Planning entry and just noticed that its was being monitored by you starting August 26th, due to Deb's suggestion for a speedy deletion. I think she jumped the gun before I even got most of it in order. Anyway, I would appreciate it if you would remove the warnings (or update it) so I can continue without getting the feeling that this reasearch will be deleted without warning. Thank you for your time on this request. Regards, Lispp —Preceding unsigned comment added by Lispp (talk • contribs) 22:57, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

War Without End (album)
Hello, and thanks for tagging this for notability back in 2008. The tag's still there and you may want to read over WP:Notability (schools) and WP:NOTABILITY and add the reasons for your concern to the Talk pg. Alternatively, you could take it to the Notability Noticeboard or AfD, or remove the tag if you are no longer concerned. Best wishes, Boleyn (talk) 21:36, 6 February 2013 (UTC)

New deal for page patrollers
Hi ,

In order to better control the quality  of new pages, keep out the spam, and welcome the genuine newbies, the current system we introduced in 2011 is being updated and improved. The documentation and tutorials have also been revised and given a facelift. Most importantly a new user group New Page Reviewer has been created.

Under the new rule, you may find that you are temporarily unable to mark new pages as reviewed. However, this is nothing to worry about - most current experienced patrollers are being accorded the the new right without the need to apply, and if you have significant previous experience of patrolling new pages, we strongly encourage you to apply for the new right as soon as possible - we need all the help we can get, and we are now providing a dynamic, supportive environment for your work.

Find out more about this exiting new user right now at New Page Reviewers and be sure to read the new tutorial before applying. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 04:29, 13 November 2016 (UTC)
