Test 2

 * Archive test # 2. Building a list of threads for the next few days with different days and time stamps. One way I can think of to test that the auto archive and see if everything is running smooth. And maybe adding a couple links Gallery and maybe How to avoid being a "biter".

And why not a thumbnail ?  Mlpearc  MESSAGE  15:18, 7 April 2010 (UTC)

The Secretary of the Navy takes pride in presenting the NAVY COMMENDATION MEDAL poshumously to PRIVATE FIRST CLASS ROBERT L. PEARCY UNITED STATES MARINE CORPS for service as set forth in the following
 * CITATION:
 * "For meritorious service while serving with the Third Reconnaissance Battalion. Third Marine Division in connection with combat operations aganist the enemy in the Republic of Vietnam from 15 December 1968 to 4 June 1969.Throughout this period, Private First Class Pearcy performed his duties on an exemplary and highly professonial manner. Working tirelessly and with meticulous attention to detail, he expeditiously accomplished all assignen tasks and consistently provided his unit with outstanding support. Serving at various times as a Radio Operator, a Scout Sniper, and a Point Man, herepeatedly distingusihed himself by his courage and composure under fire. In addition to participating in five major combat operations, including Operations Dewey Canyon and Virginia Ridge, he took part in eighteen long-range reconnaissance patrols deep within enemy controlled territory. On 12 April 1969, Private First Class Pearcy was acting as Point Man on a patrol in the Hai Lang Forest area south of the Quang Tri Combat Base, when he alertly observed enemy soldiers ahead. Reacting instantly, he warned his companions and, when the hostile force opened fire on the Marines, he quickly led the patrol to a more advantageous position from which to return fire. Finding it necessary to move  another 800 meters to a more defensible position, he led his team members to the new location, carrying a wounded Marine. When the patrol reached their objective, he provided covering fire while his comrades prepared a defense and then he rendered first aid to the casualty. On 4 June 1969, while he was on patrol near Khe Sanh, Private First Class Pearcy was mortally wounded by fragments from an enemy grenade. As a result of his diligent and resourceful efforts, the operational effectiveness of his  unit was greatly enhanced. By his initiative, superb professionalism and loyal devotion to duty, Private First Class Pearcy earned the respect of all who served with him and upheld the finest traditions of the Marine Corps and of the United States Naval Service."
 * The Combat Distinguishing Device is authorized.

Archive Test
Looks like the auto archive is "basically" working. I did notice a couple things, the bot started with User talk:peteypaws/Archive 2 instead of User talk:Peteypaws/Archive 1 and there was no entry on User talk:Peteypaws/Archive index. There might have been a link I missed or did not set up right, everything else seems ok. Threre's a very helpful editor User talk:Chzz he might be able to take a quick look at the set up, since it's his setup I copied from my page to yours. The one thing I can think of is for you to post a message to him and see if he has a moment to take a look. Here copy and paste this message under a new section with your user name in the "New Section Headline to his talk page, use the link above.


 * Hi this is User:peteypaws the wife of Timex / User:Mlpearc he asked me to copy this message to your talk page. If you can read the message at User:peteypaws and when or if you have time coould you give the archive hookup a once over. I discribe what's going on and if it's not any trouble if you could take a look thanks Timex

And do't forget to sign the post talk to you later  Mlpearc  MESSAGE  22:05, 10 April 2010 (UTC)


 * Fixing now; will report back here shortly  Chzz  ►  22:28, 10 April 2010 (UTC)


 * Fixed; I moved archive 2 to 1, deleted 2, reset the counter, and fixed the problem with the index (it was "Index" with a capital I, not "index"). The index should be created on the next run, so give it 24 hours. Note, very short threads are not archived, so the above tests may not work. Cheers,  Chzz  ►  22:35, 10 April 2010 (UTC)

 * Yes, it's allowed, it's fine. Just another user who was asking for help, is all.  Chzz  ►  02:48, 11 April 2010 (UTC)

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference
Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to  in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer have them marked as minor by default.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you are familiar with the contents of WP:MINOR, and believe that it is still beneficial to the encyclopedia to have all your edits marked as such by default, then this discussion will give you the details you need to continue with this functionality indefinitely. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 19:36, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

Your AIV report
Please explain why edits of are vandalism. Materialscientist (talk) 03:52, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Why would anyone remove a conversion template and hard edit the values ? Peteypaws (talk) 03:56, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Well, I do that too for long articles. Conversion templates merely calculate. They don't allow viewing the value in the code, but this is a minor. When the software converts wikicode into the html output, it has to substitute the templates. This delays the article loading. Also, the "buffer" for template substitution is limited per article. This crashes display of overly long articles. All this is of minor importance for short articles, thus back to the question - why reverts, tagging and report to AIV? Materialscientist (talk) 04:05, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Well, I think my reply makes it obvious why I reverted the edits. I'll stand slightly corrected. Peteypaws (talk) 04:11, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Sure. I'll explain why this post. That editor changed not only templates, but a few other bits, and I thought that could partly be the reason for your reverts. If yes, explain. If not, please reconsider/correct your warnings of that user, revert of their edits and report to AIV. Materialscientist (talk) 04:17, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Didn't ask for an explanation, and ✅ Peteypaws (talk) 04:21, 5 June 2011 (UTC)

Updated scripts
Hi Peteypaws. I edited your monobook.js and your vector.js to update you to the latest version of TemplateScript. You were using a much older version called regex menu framework, so the main difference you'll see is an improved regex editor. I also updated deprecated functions and made your scripts HTTPS-compatible. Let me know if anything breaks, or if you'd like help migrating the scripts into your common.js. :) — Pathoschild 20:57, 08 August 2015 (UTC)
