Thanks!
Appreciate the its' - its fixes, bad habits take a long time to die! Thanks =) BoomboxTestarossa (talk) 21:18, 30 March 2023 (UTC)


 * Don't worry about it. It's no big deal. You're welcome

MOS:AMPM
I noticed you making changes implementing the requirement for non-breaking spaces in times, which is appreciated. There's another little-known style guide you may like to know about too: MOS:RANGE, which holds that you should use en-dashes instead of hyphens when working with ranges that might otherwise be expressed with to or through. Cheers. XAM2175 (T) 18:16, 14 April 2023 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the advice concerning MOS:RANGE! It completely slipped my mind to check for other stylistic errors in date ranges. I'll keep this in mind in the future. Sincerely, Novo Tape (talk) 18:36, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
 * My pleasure! XAM2175  (T) 18:53, 14 April 2023 (UTC)

This person doesn't hide their leftist bias
Scours to delete and hide any embarrassing truths about leftist politicians, is paid to do this as a job. 2600:1700:39D0:82D0:C0FB:784:27C4:16AE (talk) 03:03, 21 April 2023 (UTC)


 * I've replied to your rather vehement response on your Talk Page. If you doubt my sincerity, feel free to scour my contribution history and see how many are about politics. Sincerely, Novo TapeMy Talk Page 15:38, 21 April 2023 (UTC)

Sorry, I edit conflicted with revert of this IP and the subsequent warning on the talk page, and totally messed things up. Meters (talk) 00:12, 22 April 2023 (UTC)


 * Don't worry about it. The general gist of the warnings was still passed on so it doesn't really affect the fact that they have been warned and should know better than to continue vandalizing. I'll reupload the template now. Sincerely, Novo TapeMy Talk Page 00:16, 22 April 2023 (UTC)

Deletions to recent comments made to article about Labour Party report on 'anti-semitism'
Despite calls for people to improve/add details to the article, you deleted some of my comments/updates. Can you indicate why you did this and highlight any untruths within my remarks? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.149.166.156 (talk) 18:17, 24 April 2023 (UTC)


 * I undid the phrase "Investigation into a genuine sandal" because it appeared to be a typo and the headline containing the word "genuine" contains an unnecessary qualifier. In retrospect, I should have just fixed it myself. Your other edits are fine, and, honestly, I believe it was a mistake on my part to undo them. I apologize for my oversight. There were no untruths. I'll restore it now, with the typo fixed. Sincerely, Novo Tape (She/Her)My Talk Page 18:22, 24 April 2023 (UTC)

That person's probably a sock of TyMega, hence my aggressive reverts. Liliana UwU (talk / contributions) 23:17, 27 April 2023 (UTC)

Please re-consider your decision on ChaosGPT
Dear Novo_Tape,

Kindly reconsider your decision to undo my edit to the Auto-GPT page by removing references to ChaosGPT.

I understand your rationale about not allowing censoring. I myself am a big believer in free speech. Vandalism is certainly not my intent.

However, ChaosGPT is something else entirely. As a fellow human being, I humbly request that you please reconsider for the sake of our shared humanity. ChaosGPT has the stated objective of destroying all of humanity, and is unlike anything else. I'm sure that when Wikipedia was created, no one would have thought such a thing was possible, hence Wikipedia's content moderation policies don't handle how to address such threats. This is a rare case where re-evaluating Wikipedia's policies is warranted.

I hope you do the right thing for humanity.

With Best Regards 2601:641:300:8DF0:49D8:2F72:23DD:310A (talk) 00:09, 28 April 2023 (UTC)


 * While I did revert your edit, it's not me who writes/wrote the applicably policies. I'm aware that your edits are in good faith. However, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and thus there is a need for accuracy and broad coverage of notable events, including ChaosGPT. If Roko's Basilisk wasn't deleted, why should this be? (Please don't argue about deleting that page too.) Sincerely, Novo Tape (She/Her)My Talk Page 00:17, 28 April 2023 (UTC)

My account was ostensibly hacked

 * Someone hacked my account :( Johnson McVenes (talk) 20:30, 4 May 2023 (UTC)
 * justification for dudes removal: topic title 71.172.19.223 (talk) 01:03, 5 May 2023 (UTC)
 * I understand your rationale in removing it, and thank you for proactively doing so, but this message does not interfere with any other message on my talk page, and it's obviously false since he's been deceased for a couple years now. However, I did overlook that even though I'm fine with it, others may take offense and a Talk Page is, after all, viewed by people other than me, so I'll replace the title, but keep the actual content. Thanks, Novo Tape (She/Her)My Talk Page 01:09, 5 May 2023 (UTC)

Olaudah Equiano
Hi. In attempting to remove some of the remaining vandalism to talk:Olaudah Equiano I accidentally reverted you. Please accept my apologies for hitting the wrong person. I've restored Kusma's version from 17 November to get rid of all the childishness that the IP added. Regards, Martin of Sheffield (talk) 20:40, 5 May 2023 (UTC)


 * Don't worry about it. I've accidentally reverted people too and it's no big deal. Anyways, thanks for letting me know! Sincerely, Novo Tape (She/Her)My Talk Page 22:12, 7 May 2023 (UTC)

Rollback granted
Hi Novo Tape. After reviewing your request, I have [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=rights&user=&page=User%3ANovo_Tape enabled] rollback on your account. Please keep the following things in mind while using rollback: If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see 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! Airplaneman (talk) ✈ 23:18, 5 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle or RedWarn.
 * 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.


 * Thanks for granting my request! Sincerely, Novo Tape (She/Her)My Talk Page 22:12, 7 May 2023 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

 * Thanks for the barnstar! The kind words are much appreciated. Sincerely, Novo Tape (She/Her)My Talk Page 17:11, 10 May 2023 (UTC)

Rollback mistake
You made a mistake with rollback here by reverting another users attempt at reverting vandalism. Please be more careful. - 🔥𝑰𝒍𝒍𝒖𝒔𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝑭𝒍𝒂𝒎𝒆 (𝒕𝒂𝒍𝒌)🔥 01:11, 11 May 2023 (UTC)


 * Sorry about that. I'll try not to do so in the future and I'll be more careful. Sincerely, Novo Tape (She/Her)My Talk Page 01:54, 11 May 2023 (UTC)

This is your only warning; if you constructively edit again, you may be given a barnstar without further warning. Din oz1  (chat?) (he/him) 15:41, 30 May 2023 (UTC)


 * Thanks! I've never seen this template before and, at first, I was surprised and thought I'd done something seriously wrong to warrant a level 4 im warning. Sincerely, Novo Tape (She/Her)My Talk Page 15:48, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
 * No problem! You've beat me to vandalism countless times, so I thought you deserved a good laugh! Din  oz1  (chat?) (he/him) 15:50, 30 May 2023 (UTC)

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, such as at Administrator intervention against vandalism, (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either: This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.
 * 1) Add four tildes  ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ) at the end of your comment, or
 * 2) With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button OOjs UI icon signature-ltr.svg located above the edit window.

Thank you. -Lemonaka‎ 21:56, 30 May 2023 (UTC)


 * Sorry about that. I forgot to sign. Sincerely, Novo Tape (She/Her)My Talk Page 21:57, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Hi, please have a try for WP:TW, Twinkle has a function for reporting -Lemonaka‎  21:57, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the suggestion but I've tried Twinkle in the past and prefer antivandal. It also has an AIV feature but, in this instance, I made a manual report, which is why I messed up. Sincerely, Novo Tape (She/Her)My Talk Page 22:01, 30 May 2023 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

 * Thanks for the kind words! They're very much appreciated. Sincerely, Novo Tape (She/Her)My Talk Page 16:15, 30 May 2023 (UTC)

ConvoWizard study details
Hi Novo Tape,

This is Jonathan with the ConvoWizard study team. First off, thanks for indicating your interest in our study! We just wanted to give you a quick update that we're still waiting on more sign-ups, and will officially launch the study once we hit a "critical mass" of participants - once that happens we'll follow up with more details. In the meantime, please don't hesitate to reach out (via talk page, email, etc.) if you have any questions before we begin!

(And if you know anyone else who'd be potentially interested in ConvoWizard, please feel free to spread the word!)

If you are still interested in participating, you can begin by filling out the following form, which also contains more detailed instructions: https://cornell.ca1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_dm4TiyTZkTfIICO (note that the first page does ask again for the same information as the initial interest form you filled out, but subsequent pages of the form contain more new questions/information).

Study invitation for anti-vandalism patrollers
Hi @Novo Tape, thanks for patrolling edits and reverting vandalism! I wonder if you are interested in our ongoing study for patrollers. The study aims to evaluate AI models that power recent change filters, Huggle, SWViewer, and many other anti-vandal tools. Your feedback can be really helpful! If you're interested, please check out our recruitment page for more information. Thank you for your consideration! Tzusheng (talk) 01:10, 30 June 2023 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the invitation! However, I don't feel I have the time to do so and don't feel comfortable accepting money for anything Wikipedia-related, even if it wouldn't constitute a conflict of interest. Sincerely, Novo Tape (She/Her)My Talk Page 02:38, 30 June 2023 (UTC)
