RedWarn
Greetings! I noticed you have been using Twinkle and was wondering if you'd like to beta test my new tool, RedWarn, specifically designed for the fastest vandalism reverts in the west (yee-haw!). If you're interested, please see see the RedWarn page for installation instructions. Otherwise, feel free to remove this message from your page. Your feedback is much appreciated! JamesHSmith6789 (talk) 22:36, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you for trying it! Please let me know if you need any help JamesHSmith6789 (talk) 22:41, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Should also note that at the moment, quick welcome only adds the template to a user page. I have plans in future to detect IPs ext, and also have a right click menu where you can select the welcome template you want to use. JamesHSmith6789 (talk) 22:44, 28 April 2020 (UTC):
 * Thanks for letting me beta test it! I would also like to point out some bugs (I use Microsoft Edge, yeah sue me)


 * All dialog boxes move to the bottom left of the screen instead of their usual place (worst bug)
 * There should probably be a conformation box for when a user misclicks on something (e.g. warning templates)
 * When adding a notice, the "reason" tab will not scroll down

All I found, I'll notify you again when I find more :P dibbydib (T ･ C) 22:54, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the feedback. Those issues to me look like your browser doesn't support the HTML element which is required for the dialogs to show correctly. The reason it appears in the bottom-left is due to the way it is appended to the very bottom of the page. If you're using Edge, make sure you're on version 79 or newer. It works fine in the newest versions of Chrome, Firefox and Edge as I have tested. JamesHSmith6789 (talk) 23:01, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Just updated Edge. Everything works fine now as of now! dibbydib (T ･  C) 23:14, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
 * That's great! Please stay in touch, I'd really value somebody else's feedback while using my tool. JamesHSmith6789 (talk) 23:18, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Okay, here's some new stuff I've found.
 * When right clicking on a user it'd be much better if the stuff opened in a new tab instead of on the current page
 * When checking RC, the "RedWarn" feature (which is genius) duplicates itself in the menu á la "( Redwarn | Redwarn | Redwarn | Redwarn | diff | hist )" dibbydib (T ･ C) 04:36, 29 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I actually find not having a new tab pretty frustrating too, so I'll add that, and I'll also see if I can fix the bug where Redwarn repeats over and over. Thank you for testing :) JamesHSmith6789 (talk) 11:17, 29 April 2020 (UTC)
 * RedWarn rev3 is now out, which fixes all these issues :) JamesHSmith6789 (talk) 18:52, 29 April 2020 (UTC)

Help with Publishing
Simon (talk) 11:05, 29 April 2020 (UTC) Hi there, just looking for abit of clarity on this, you did not approve this article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Shailesh_Jejurikar - if a CEO of an >18 Billion dollars household brand portfolio is not notable enough then I dont know who is - if somebody like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roland_Dickey_Jr. gets to be here but the CEO of some of the most loved brands in the USA tide/downy etc gets deleted - please help me understand - is there a minimum threshold of citations required. His contemporaries https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R._Alexandra_Keith are included- so I dont understand the rejection.. please help
 * Ah, yes,, there is a criteria of notability on Wikipedia that judges most articles, titled WP:GNG (or General Notability Guideline). The full section reads:


 * If a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that areindependent of the subject, it is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article or list.
 * "Significant coverage" addresses the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content. Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the source material.
 * The book-length history of IBM by Robert Sobel is plainly non-trivial coverage of IBM.
 * Martin Walker's statement, in a newspaper article about Bill Clinton, that "In high school, he was part of a jazz band called Three Blind Mice" is plainly a trivial mention of that band.
 * "Reliable" means that sources need editorial integrity to allow verifiable evaluation of notability, per the reliable source guideline. Sources may encompass published works in all forms and media, and in any language. Availability of secondary sources covering the subject is a good test for notability.
 * "Sources" should be secondary sources, as those provide the most objective evidence of notability. There is no fixed number of sources required since sources vary in quality and depth of coverage, but multiple sources are generally expected. Sources do not have to be available online or written in English. Multiple publications from the same author or organization are usually regarded as a single source for the purposes of establishing notability.
 * "Independent of the subject" excludes works produced by the article's subject or someone affiliated with it. For example, advertising, press releases, autobiographies, and the subject's website are not considered independent.
 * "Presumed" means that significant coverage in reliable sources creates an assumption, not a guarantee, that a subject merits its own article. A more in-depth discussion might conclude that the topic actually should not have a stand-alone article—perhaps because it violates what Wikipedia is not, particularly the rule that Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information.


 * If a topic does not meet these criteria but still has some verifiable facts, it might be useful to discuss it within another article. 


 * I didn't find any references that fit the criteria in this, but if you add references that meet this notability guideline you're on the way to a published article. Hope this helps! dibbydib (T ･  C) 22:37, 29 April 2020 (UTC)

RedWarn - important info to get back up and running
Hey! Thanks for testing RedWarn. This is an important message to notify you that effective immediately, you need to change your common.js. This is due to my usurp request to change my username from an alias, JamesHSmith6789, to a more identifiable one, Ed6767 being accepted.

To do this, edit your config.js and remove the existing RedWarn script line and replace it with this one: Click here to edit your common.js

And, here's another reminder to please, please, leave feedback and report all bugs on the talk page. By reporting bugs, you can help get them fixed by the next daily release.

Also, if you're interested in live discussion regarding the development and help with using RedWarn, why not join our new Discord server. It's easy to sign up and you can get help and chat with other RedWarn users.

Again, thank you so much for being willing to beta test RedWarn! I really appreciate it. Ed6767 (talk) 12:37, 1 May 2020 (UTC)

Hi. I was still removing unsourced material from that. No source = has to go. Please don't try to interfere. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 180.231.63.209 (talk) 07:10, 2 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Just because something "isn't sourced" doesn't mean you have to remove that. Tag it, maybe. But just because something doesn't have a source doesn't mean you remove it entirely. Most of the time the sources aren't included in the lead section because they are elsewhere. I propose tagging it with More citations needed in the article or sections that lack sources. dibbydib (T ･ C) 07:21, 2 May 2020 (UTC)

Guess who's back, back again


Hello RedWarn tester! I hate to reitterate, but thank you so much for being willing to test RedWarn, I really appreciate it.

In the past few updates, I have added AIV (admin) reporting, a preferences panel, themes, customisation options and made many, many bug fixes and added many features based on your suggestions and feedback.

Unfortunately, recently feedback has run dry.

Even if you do not use RedWarn at the moment, or you do (tysm), I would greatly appreciate feedback of any kind. While I go round Twinkle users, sounding like that broadband salesperson in the mall that nobody ever wants to speak to, I'd like some updated feedback from recent and current users.

Any sort of feedback below would be greately appreciated!


 * Your first impressions when you tried RedWarn?
 * How have you used RedWarn as time has gone on?
 * Would you value customisation features, such as macros or shortcuts, such as adding your own quick revert reasons so the tool can fit your exact editing practices?
 * Any suggestions for how I could promote the tool to a wider audience?
 * Would you appreciate a more developed and thorough user guide?
 * Any theme suggestions?
 * Anything you'd like changing?
 * Something you've always wanted to see in an anti-vandal tool? (I might add it!)
 * RedWarn app?
 * A way to introduce Recent Changes patrol to new users to make using RedWarn or other tools less daunting?
 * Any bugs, gripes, or things that just really annoy you about RedWarn?

Click the button below to begin a new section on the talk page

My goal is to create the most user friendly moderation tool, and that's why I need your feedback to help make this truely the most favorable anti-vandal tool. While we will never elliminate vandalism on this site, we can get closer to fighting it quickly and easily.

Many thanks for your continued support. Ed6767 (talk) 00:23, 6 May 2020 (UTC)

If you do not wish to get these feedback reminders, let me know on my talk page.

AWB
Thanks for tagging the categories (defunct mass media) more precisely. How do you get AWB (which I use) to insert a variable target? Oculi (talk) 09:33, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
 * I'm sure there's an answer but I'm pretty bad at AWB myself so I just did a replace-text and put COUNTRY where the country name is, then each edit I replaced the "COUNTRY" text with the country's name manually. I'm pretty sure there's a way that exists that adds variables but I don't know it - I'll ask around though. dibbydib  boop or snoop  23:34, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
 * OK - I am clearly lazier than you. Oculi (talk) 00:38, 8 May 2020 (UTC)

Content removal on Clerical fascism
Hi there, just came here to say that I did provide an explanation for why I removed content on the Clerical fascism article, basically it was inaccurate and also POV, that's why I removed it. -- 177.158.124.142 (talk) 06:26, 20 May 2020 (UTC)
 * I believe a reference was included in the text, maybe you should check that for a consensus? I did check over the edits and I do believe the two paragraphs you removed were unreferenced and controversial, it should totally be okay to remove those, so kudos to you for that, feel free to remove it. dibbydib  boop or snoop  06:33, 20 May 2020 (UTC)

About my edit you have reverted on Shadow Fight page
Hey there, I checked recently that you have reverted my edit on Shadow Fight page in which I added 3 missed Shadow Fight 3 languages. It was a correct edit. I play that game and have seen its languages and so is written on Shadow Fight Wiki. I do not understand what you mean by "add a referenced source". I would like request you to recheck that edit and bring it back. Thank you! Ahsan1444 (talk) 12:00, 22 May 2020 (UTC)
 * If you can find a source (the game's website should have it, as a reference it should be fine in this instance, not a wiki) and reference it using  tags, it's fine in my books. <b style="color:#1dd400">dibbydib</b> <i style="color:#117f00">boop</i><i style="color:#117f00"> or </i><i style="color:#117f00">snoop</i> 21:52, 22 May 2020 (UTC)

I do not understand what you mean. Do you agree with my edit? I can give you a screenshot of the language section if you like. Shadow Fight 2 and 3 have an official website but they have nothing instead of the games' trailers. So the screenshot of the game's language section is the best evidence I can provide you. Ahsan1444 (talk) 21:55, 22 May 2020 (UTC)

warning on talk page was in error.
The anon editor was correcting a previous error. Might want to apologize to anon. Ward20 (talk) 02:32, 24 May 2020 (UTC)

Hi Dibbydib. Your account has been added to the " " user group. Please check back at WP:PERM in case your user right is time limited or probationary. This user group allows you to review new pages through the Curation system and mark them as patrolled, tag them for maintenance issues, or nominate them for deletion. The list of articles awaiting review is located at the New Pages Feed. New page reviewing is vital to maintaining the integrity of the encyclopedia. If you have not already done so, you must read the tutorial at New Pages Review, the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the deletion policy. If you need any help or want to discuss the process, you are welcome to use the new page reviewer talk page. In addition, please remember: 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 inactivity, the right may be withdrawn at administrator discretion. signed,Rosguill talk 22:33, 2 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Be nice to new editors. They are 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.

A kitten for you!
Thank you for approving my category!
