Herero and Namaqua Genocide
Hi, dare to explain why you removed the Eugen Fischer paragraph with these edits? You did not leave an edit summary or a talk page notice. Thanks, Pgallert (talk) 17:47, 11 April 2016 (UTC)

Hi, on the talk page there are ample new sources and information, under the Wikipedia Primary School Invitation that are thoroughly researched but none of which were added to the page,

Under 4.3.2 "Delete: 1st paragraph: ‘Eugen Fischer (...) test subjects’. This is incorrect!"

I was just trying to appropriate this info.Dumbassman (talk) 06:26, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Okay, sorry, I did not connect your edits to the talk page review. Cheers, Pgallert (talk) 07:31, 12 April 2016 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for April 12
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Mind Assault, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Heavy metal. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Event coordinator granted
After reviewing your request for the " eventcoordinator " permission, I have enabled the flag on your account. Keep in mind these things: If you no longer require the right, let me know, or ask any other administrator. Drop a note on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of the event coordinator right. Happy editing! — xaosflux  Talk 17:45, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
 * The event coordinator right removes the limit on the maximum number of new accounts that can be created in a 24-hour period.
 * The event coordinator right allows you to temporarily add the " confirmed " permission to newly created accounts. You should not grant this for more than 10 days.
 * The event coordinator right is not a status symbol. If it remains unused, it is likely to be removed. Abuse of the event coordinator right will result in its removal by an administrator.
 * Please note, if you were previously a member of the "account creator" group, your flag may have been converted to this new group.
