Your recent edits
Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button or  located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when they said it. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 23:03, 17 May 2012 (UTC)

Sandbox
Hello Dmartin969! This is just to let you know that I tweaked the code in your sandbox - when you included the code  it put the sandbox into the category Category:Wikipedia content policies. This means that to someone visiting the content policies category, it would look like your sandbox was a Wikipedia policy! I'm sure that's not what you intended. :) If you have any questions about this, ask me on my talk page, and I'll help you out. Best — Mr. Stradivarius  (have a chat) 12:47, 28 October 2012 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy Digital Release 2.jpg
 Thanks for uploading File:My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy Digital Release 2.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 23:18, 4 March 2015 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 14:02, 24 November 2015 (UTC)

ArbCom Elections 2016: Voting now open!
Fine. I was just trying to improve the page, but if you're okay with it being wrong and containing incorrect data, far be it from me to correct it. --Emgee1129 (talk) 04:07, 29 December 2016 (UTC)

PROD tag on Siae Microelettronica
Please note that per WP:PROD, a talk page discussion is not required to remove a PROD tag. ANY objection, for whatever reason, is sufficient for removal of the tag. PROD is only for entirely uncontested deletions that don't meet CSD criteria. For context, I'm working with this editor on the IRC help channel right now. Waggie (talk) 19:03, 2 January 2017 (UTC)

Rollback granted
Hi Dmartin969. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=rights&user=&page=User%3ADmartin969 enabled] rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use 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 troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Widr (talk) 19:45, 4 July 2017 (UTC)
 * 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.
