 * Good job on the talkback template; however, you were supposed to use your own username, not mine. ;-) I dream of horses If you reply here, please leave me a &#123;&#123;Talkback&#125;&#125; message on my talk page. @ 03:02, 20 October 2014 (UTC)

 * I have a few abandoned accounts, too. By the way, talkback templates aren't designed to be in a "section header". I dream of horses If you reply here, please leave me a &#123;&#123;Talkback&#125;&#125; message on my talk page. @ 03:26, 23 October 2014 (UTC)

Your recent edits
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (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 (Insert-signature.png or Signature icon.png) located above the edit window.

Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 04:08, 23 October 2014 (UTC)
 * That's weird - I haven't forgotten to sign a post yet, or at least I don't remember saving without a signature... - Fim atic  (talk &#124; contribs) 04:24, 23 October 2014 (UTC)
 * It does not recognize your signature as a sig, because images are not permitted in signatures per WP:SIGIMAGE. Please update your signature ASAP to remove the image. VQuakr (talk) 03:38, 26 October 2014 (UTC)

 * Whoa. You may want to read the rest of the signature guideline I linked above, particularly WP:SIGAPP. Signatures with font sizes that interrupt surrounding text could be interpreted as disruptive. VQuakr (talk) 05:43, 26 October 2014 (UTC)
 * WP:SIGIMAGE is policy, accordingly I have replaced all instances of  with   per WP:SIGCLEAN. -- Red rose64 (talk) 10:38, 26 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Okay, thanks :) I have a better one now which considers most of the rules. - Fim atic  (talk &#124; contribs) 19:58, 27 October 2014 (UTC)

Dead end pages
Hi Fimatic. Thanks for adding links to the dead end pages. Next time you add them though could you please remove the tag from the top of the page. I'm going through the dead end pages category and if you delete the tag from the pages it will remove them from the category and I'll know which ones you have already done. Thanks.

Re: A page you started (Francis Glanville) has been reviewed!
Dear Fimatic, Thank you very much indeed for your very kind comments. One usually only hears anything when one's been judged to have done something wrong. Excellent to receive such positive comments from Wikipedia for once. Very much appreciated. All the very best. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vietnamvat (talk • contribs)
 * No problem! I've been curating pages, and when you mark pages as reviewed, there's a little space which has an option for you to type a message to the page creator. Once you review it, that message gets automatically sent to the creator's talk page - I've been leaving some notes. - Fim atic  (talk &#124; contribs) 20:23, 7 November 2014 (UTC)
 * But it's excellent that you bothered to do that: it really is encouraging. But, unfortunately it's also very, very rare. Thank you very much indeed. (talk)
 * I usually enjoy giving constructive criticism and good feedback, so I take advantage of that space. - Fim atic  (talk &#124; contribs) 20:29, 7 November 2014 (UTC)

Hello!
It's me Aar3811 from scratch! :P, Also, Good luck with your request for rollback! :D Duonaut (talk &#124; contribs) 18:43, 9 November 2014 (UTC)

 * I read your talk page and looked through your contribs; you seem to have a good understanding of Wikipedia! I've been using wikis for about 3-4 years, do you need any help with anything? - Fim atic  (talk &#124; contribs) 18:47, 9 November 2014 (UTC)
 * No, Not really, and most of my Experience is because I edited with my IP for quite a bit, Oh, and the name "Duonaut" is a wierd story, If you want me to tell you it. xD Duonaut (talk &#124; contribs) 18:49, 9 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Nice! Yeah, I've been using wikis for about 4 years now, and the first wiki I ever edited was Wiktionary (a sister project here), I think. - Fim atic  (talk &#124; contribs) 18:53, 9 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I started editing with my IP back in about June i think. Duonaut (talk &#124; contribs) 18:57, 9 November 2014 (UTC)

Rollback
Hi Fimatic. After reviewing your request for rollback, I have [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=rights&user=&page=User%3A 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 New admin school/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! Beeblebrox (talk) 19:21, 9 November 2014 (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.
 * Okay! I read WP:ROLLBACK before submitting my request, so I already know what it's used for and when you shouldn't use it. This'll make fighting vandalism easier for me; thanks! :) - Fim atic  (talk &#124; contribs) 22:28, 9 November 2014 (UTC)


 * Fimatic, I don't wish to dampen your enthusiasm, but the first reason, at least as a newbie, for wanting to contribute to Wikipedia is to create, expand, or otherwise improve articles. I hope you don't mind me pointing out therefore, that WP:PERM is admin territory. Non-admin comments are rarely helpful, and especially from new and inexperienced users. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 14:14, 13 November 2014 (UTC)
 * I'm highly aware of all of that, I just needed a more efficient way of revering vandalism because I was finding a lot. Also, although this account is only 3 weeks old, I've been editing for about 5 months with an IP and 3 months on my previous account. - Fim atic  (talk &#124; contribs) 16:37, 13 November 2014 (UTC)
 * I was referring to a comment of yours about an admin decision I made on another user's application. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 16:43, 13 November 2014 (UTC)
 * When I made that comment, I was just stating my opinion - I never meant for any of it to be taken into consideration. Sorry for any confusion! - Fim atic  (talk &#124; contribs) 16:44, 13 November 2014 (UTC)
 * PERM is not an election process like RfA. You can rest assured that admins do all the necessary research (they also have some special tools) before granting or declining a user right. Only in very exceptional cases are non-admin observations (NAO) required on those pages. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 16:53, 13 November 2014 (UTC)

BART to Oakland International Airport
Hello Firmatic, I understand your concern on the BART article. The reason I did the timely changes since the BART to Oakland International Airport is opening to the public on November 22. Many sections under BART to OAK had to be removed since the project is completed and will be opened to the public in a few hours. Please keep in account, I'm a beginner of editing Wikipedia articles and wasn't too aware of the number of edits that showed on the Wikipedia log.

The section under "BART to Oakland International Airport Automated Guideway Transit" article redirect is incorrect and was changed to "BART to Oakland International Airport" but you reverted back. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Salv007 (talk • contribs)
 * Okay, sorry! It's just that you removed a substantive amount of content without explaining why, so I reverted it and gave you the template. - Fim atic  (talk &#124; contribs) 17:39, 22 November 2014 (UTC)
 * You weren't wrong to do what you did, Fimatic – Salv007 deleted content that was currently under discussion at the BART article's Talk page. Which is why it's always best to check an article's Talk page before making relatively big changes like deleting or moving a section... --IJBall (talk) 18:35, 22 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Okay; I wasn't exactly sure if I'd made a mistake by doing that or not. - Fim atic  (talk &#124; contribs) 18:59, 22 November 2014 (UTC)

Orphan tag on a new article you patrolled ?
Yesterday I created a few articles, one of them Søren Peter Kristensen.

Hours later it was patrolled (by you), and received an orphan tag.

However while it was created as an orphan, another page was linking to it in less than 3 minutes.

(Also, within seconds from its creation, the article had a link to its Danish translation).

Is it not a glitch in the review tool (Page Curation), that an actual reviewer hours later ends up placing an at that time no longer applicable tag on the created article ?

(An editor can avoid triggering this issue by creating a redlink prior to creating the article, but the issue is still there.)

Thanks.

Lklundin (talk) 12:11, 27 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Feel free to remove that tag if other articles now link to it. I added it because it was in the common issues section, so I added the tag and reviewed it. - Fim atic  (talk &#124; contribs) 17:39, 27 November 2014 (UTC)

A question about becoming a teahouse host
I'm thinking about becoming a teahouse host and I'm wondering, What are you supposed to put in the "Sign here" field? Duonaut(talk &#124; contribs) 22:48, 7 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Thanks for having interest in the Teahouse program! I'd recommend that you'd get a bit more experience before coming a host, because it seems like you still have a bit more to learn about, and you're rather new. When you think you've gathered enough experience, feel free to become a host - put your username in the sign here field. - Fim atic  (talk &#124; contribs) 00:03, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
 * I've been editing on my IP since (around) June though (I said that before in User talk:Fimatic), So i'm not exactly new. :P Oh, and Thanks! Duonaut(talk &#124; contribs) 00:15, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
 * No problem! However, there are some things that you may need to help out with that require having an account to do, such as participating in AfDs, voting in RfA, using Twinkle, preferences, etc. I'd recommend that you gain sufficient experience as a registered editor before becoming a host; as there are some things that you probably could help out in which are things that require an account. - Fim atic  (talk &#124; contribs) 00:36, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Well, I participated in AfDs when i edited under my IP (I still edit under my IP occasionally), RfA's are probably similair to AfDs so I think I'm fine :P, I've used twinkle For a while and I know how to use the preferences. Oh, and also you misspelled things xD Duonaut(talk &#124; contribs) 20:47, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Awesome, those contributions are helpful. :) However, I still think that with only 300 edits, you should probably gain a bit more experience; I'd recommend to become a host in at least a month from now, and when you think that you're ready at that point. (Also, I fixed the typo, thanks for pointing it out!) - Fim atic  (talk &#124; contribs) 05:41, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

Deletion sorting
Hi Fimatic: Thanks for your contributions to Wikipedia. Just a note that I reverted your addition of the deletion sort for Football at the Articles for deletion/Minnesota–Nebraska football rivalry discussion. The topic is about American football, rather than football. Cheers, NorthAmerica1000 02:55, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Okay, thanks! Yes, I meant to sort that in an American football deletion discussion, but I couldn't find one after doing a couple of searches, so I just used that instead. - Fim atic  (talk &#124; contribs) 05:19, 8 December 2014 (UTC)

People delete sort category
Hi Fimatic: Just a note that per the WikiProject Deletion sorting/People page, it states, "Note: In most cases there is another more specific category than this one. Please use on these instead..." (scroll down on page for complete information). I noticed that in performing deletion sorting, you have added both the people delete sort along with other, more specific people-related ones (e.g. Bands and musicians, such as at Articles for deletion/Paul Koehler, Articles for deletion/Paul Marc Rousseau). Typically, the People delete sort page is used for subjects that don't fit into any of the other categories. Just a heads up, and thanks for your work in performing deletion sorting. NorthAmerica1000 18:06, 13 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Thanks for letting me know. When I delete sort biographies, I usually sort them to that and then a few others defining them (from now on, I won't use this unless there's nothing else to define them), I was adding them to there so it would fit into a category containing biography AfDs. - Fim atic  (talk &#124; contribs) 02:11, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

Also, i've removed some material in the lead that sounded POV to me. Please do add/subtract. Thanks. Trinidade (talk) 17:42, 26 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Looking back on that, I actually never added a POV tag to that article; I added a category improve tag, as there were few categories. Was this message meant for Tom Morris (edit adding POV tag)? - Fim atic  (talk &#124; contribs) 18:56, 26 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Yep, that was me. Trinidade seems to have removed the POV, so I've removed the tag. —Tom Morris (talk) 19:40, 26 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Oops, My bad! Sorry Fimatic and Thankyou Tom Morris Trinidade (talk) 06:57, 27 December 2014 (UTC)

Thanks
I just wanted to thank you for writing such positive comments towards me on the controversial article Talk:2014 Sydney hostage crisis. My comments were querying a change to the name of the article, as every news report I have ever read about it has referred to it as some variation of the "chocolate shop hostage situation". Given that we have as many as 10-15 hostages in Sydney every single year, and there was another one in Sydney the day after this (which also made nationwide news), I thought that the name might be a bit misleading, and might hide the article. Oddly, the anger I have had directed at me in relation to this is exclusively in relation to this edit I made to the related illridewithyou article, which so far 5 people have agreed is not a BLP violation at all, as it is a direct quote from a verifiable source, including by the person themselves. I have had no less than 11 threats in relation to that one edit, and the related questioning as to why I received that threat. It was nice to see someone being a bit sensible and generally nice in what appears to be a very controversial article. KrampusC (talk) 14:23, 28 December 2014 (UTC)

Would you kindly please explain this edit? Firstly, we are in the process of greatly expanding coverage of the South African Army, and for that we need WP:Red links, in full conformance with policy. Secondly, should you wish to try to edit military articles, I would ask you to gain some familiarity with the terminology eg Ordnance. Please (a) conform with policy and do not remove redlinks, and (b) do your homework!! Buckshot06 (talk) 04:03, 30 December 2014 (UTC)
 * First off, I'm sorry for that edit. As of now, I'm still rather new on Wikipedia, and I haven't read all of the policies (which I will very soon get to becoming familiar with, but I do know many of them). I hadn't been aware of the red-link policy yet, so thank you for familiarizing me with it. About the "spelling correction": I was working on a copyedit of the page, and I had copyedited 2 sections prior to that edit. When I was skimming the page for possible errors, I had noticed that in the lead. To be honest, I'm not too familiar with some military terms, and it's true that I probably should look up some of the related terminology before editing military articles. However, I'm not planning to work on military articles often, I was editing that page as a copyedit, as stated earlier. I wasn't very familiar with the Ordnance term at the time of the edit, so I "corrected" the mistake because I thought that the word was a typo of ordinance. Again, sorry for that edit, and I hope this got it sorted out. - Fim atic  (talk &#124; contribs) 02:10, 31 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Sure Fimatic, understood, that's fine. There is actually a wikipedia rule telling people Please do not bite the newcomers. I'm sorry, I thought you were an older hand. Cheers and happy holidays!! Buckshot06 (talk) 02:20, 31 December 2014 (UTC)
 * It's fine, and thanks! - Fim atic  (talk &#124; contribs) 02:22, 31 December 2014 (UTC)

Reversion of edit on Talk:Athlete (band)
Hi, I see you reverted my setting an importance tag for WikiProject London at Talk:Athlete (band). Why was this?--DavidCane (talk) 23:25, 31 December 2014 (UTC)
 * I just noticed that - thank you for telling me. I've undone my edit, I accidentally reverted the edit and didn't notice... - Fim atic  (talk &#124; contribs) 23:37, 31 December 2014 (UTC)
 * I was using a small mobile device at the time of myself reverting that, so I probably meant to click another button but accidentally clicked rollback instead, and didn't notice. I'm sorry about that! - Fim atic  (talk &#124; contribs) 23:40, 31 December 2014 (UTC)
