Reviewer
Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

For the guideline on reviewing, see Reviewing. Being granted reviewer rights doesn't change how you can edit articles even with pending changes. The general help page on pending changes can be found here, and the general policy for the trial can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. - F ASTILY  (T ALK ) 00:20, 22 August 2010 (UTC)

I never removed content, you should know by know and are obviously consciously lying by claiming otherwise. Well, par for the course here on Wikipedia. Have fun! --91.55.62.219 (talk) 16:42, 22 August 2010 (UTC)

Rollback
Hello, per your request, I've granted you Rollback rights! Just remember:
 * Rollback gives you access to certain scripts, including Huggle and Igloo, some of which can be very powerful, so exercise caution
 * Rollback is only for blatant vandalism
 * Having Rollback rights does not give you any special status or authority
 * Misuse of Rollback can lead to its removal by any administrator
 * Please read Help:Reverting and Rollback feature to get to know the workings of the feature
 * You can test Rollback at New admin school/Rollback
 * You may wish to display the User wikipedia/rollback userbox and/or the Rollback top icon on your user page
 * If you have any questions, please do let me know.

--Be careful and you'll be fine. :) Remember to keep warning them (you can still use Twinkle for that). Best, HJ Mitchell  &#124;  Penny for your thoughts?   20:27, 22 August 2010 (UTC)

Amber Heard
Heya. I saw you accepted this edit to the above article. When you see content like that (i.e. unsourced) it is worth checking the edit history - or even consider leaving it for someone else to review. The IP has been trying to ewdit junk into that article all afternoon :) No issue - but I thought I would leave a note. Have a great day. --Errant Tmorton166(Talk) 17:05, 23 August 2010 (UTC)

Reply
Firstly, I don't remember to have warned an user whose edit you reverted. When did I warn user whose edits you reverted? Link? And secondly, how could I have noticed that you reverted some edit when it looks like I did it, as sometimes, when two users revret at the same time, it may look like that.

Hi Látches, thanks for the offer. I'd like to accept. How do we proceed? I would like to learn through the creation of a page that I hope will be acceptable to the main encyclopedia.

Hello, we've received a request on the Account Creation tool for an account there in your name. Could you please confirm that this request was made by you? Thank you. Hers fold  (t/a/c) 21:12, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

Re: Suspension
No, I'm not going to reactivate your account, certainly not so soon. The interface says in several places that if you can see a button or link, you can do whatever that link says. There was absolutely no reason for you to create that account, even if you had accidentally reset it. The best way to proceed would have been to Drop the request, which marks it as declined without sending an email, or asking another ACC member for advice. This stream-of-consciousness request does not convince me that reinstating your account so soon would be a benefit, especially so soon after your suspension.

Welcoming new users
Hi Puffin. When using semi-automated tools to edit, such as Twinkle. Please make sure you take your time, and check each edit individually and carefully. This is to avoid making errors, such as the one you made here. It's very easy to make errors like this when editing too fast with a script or program, so it is important that you pay extra attention. Cheers, - Kingpin13 (talk) 17:12, 24 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I saw that, wasn't sure which one to delete. Is there a tool which makes it easier to welcome new users?  Puffin  ''Lets talk! 18:50, 24 October 2010 (UTC)
 * If they're both exactly the same, it wouldn't have made any difference which one you deleted, so just pick one at random. Well Friendly and Twinkle are your best bet, although those are just scripts. I doubt people would be in support of you... firing up AWB for example, and then mass-welcoming new users like that. Because you should be checking their edits etc. first, to avoid leaving an inappropriate message for a vandal. These welcome messages shouldn't be left in a bot-like fashion, see Bots/Frequently_denied_bots - Kingpin13 (talk) 15:52, 27 October 2010 (UTC)

Intuition
Intuition should have told you that the article had been vandalised. As for notability, any verifiable populated settlement on the planet is considered notable on wikipedia, however short and uninformative the article is. If you spent your time expanding articles rather than mailing prods to fellow editors we'd build this together. ♦ Dr. Blofeld  11:09, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

No worries, I see you now realised that it was vandalised. Regards.♦ Dr. Blofeld  11:10, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

Amorite
Puffin, please revert the article to this version--I'm sure you have Twinkle or something like that. Thanks. 199.80.15.159 (talk) 16:50, 26 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I did it by hand. When you are dealing with vandals, it's often a good idea to check the history and see if you need to revert further--you'd also have seen my all-caps plea for automated help. Thank you. 199.80.15.159 (talk) 16:53, 26 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Ok, just as you said that I had restored it but ok. I am using WP:Huggle which allows me to see previous revisions of pages but I am searching through quickly. Right now, I have been finding a lot of vandals, more than usual so I had to go through quickly. But thank you for pointing that out. I would suggest that you create an account.  Puffin  ''Lets talk! 16:56, 26 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I have one, thanks. Speaking as an old person, sometimes it's more helpful to look hard at one edit and see if there's a history than to go for quantity. As you saw with Amorite, the user who also reverted one of those IP's edit went back to your version, and if one sees trustworthy names like Fae's, one is inclined to think that that took care of the matter, and so old vandalism (minor ones, but more than one or two) may remain. Thanks, 199.80.15.159 (talk) 16:59, 26 October 2010 (UTC)
 * BTW, thanks for the welcome, Puffin--keep up the good work. 199.80.15.159 (talk) 17:00, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

Reversion at Turban
Just a note that I reverted the article a couple of edits further back than you did; after one OK edit (looked that way to me, anyway) an IP user deleted part of two paragraphs (including only part of a link) and then another IP broke a subhead format. I guess the vandal-finder you’re using only looks at the most recent change … I’ve posted a UW-delete1 and a UW-test1 to their respective Talk pages. —Odysseus1479 (talk) 04:42, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I rarely look at the article names, all I know is that yesterday, there was a lot of vandalism being done by IP's and I did look at the previous revisions but there were so many to look through. I was using Huggle. Thanks anyway.  Puffin  ''Lets talk! 09:34, 27 October 2010 (UTC)

Can you semi-protect the page so no more vandalism can occur. It's getting over whelming there. 67.189.172.164 (talk) 19:38, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
 * As I am not an admin, I can't semi-protect it but I have filed a request Here for an admin to protect it. Hope I helped  Puffin  ''Lets talk! 11:13, 28 October 2010 (UTC)

Huggle
Please be careful using huggle, here you reverted my reversion of vandalism. No harm done, but I thought it best to let you know. Nevertheless, keep up the good vandal fighting work! Cheers Jdrewitt (talk) 19:39, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
 * It probably happened because when I revert vandalism, sometimes another vandal fighter does it split seconds before me, so I am reverting another good editors reversion is you understand. It's hard to avoid this and when I do spot this happening, I always edit the vandalism out. Thanks anyway.  Puffin  ''Lets talk! 11:10, 28 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes I understand and I wasn't critising, I just wanted to let you know it happened :) Best wishes Jdrewitt (talk) 12:24, 28 October 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Usuari:RainCT
Hello Puffin. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Usuari:RainCT, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: '''It's pushing it to call that an article. Needs to go to WP:MFD.''' Thank you. Ged UK  14:33, 30 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Scratch that; it was a language error I think. I've moved it to their userspace (User:RainCT) as it's effectively a userbox. Thanks! Ged  UK  14:37, 30 October 2010 (UTC)

Re: Reverting Vandalism
Re your message: Oh, I know about Twinkle, Huggle, and everything else, I just prefer not to use them for a variety of reasons. I'm very "old school" as I've been around a long time when there were no scripts or programs besides popups (which I do use) and a few minimal scripts to help with WP:AIV (I remember the days before the bots looked after it, that was interesting). So that is the way I learned how to do things and I've stuck with it since then. Occasionally I will make mistakes like you noticed, but not too many. =) One of these days perhaps I will look into other tools again, but for now I'll stick with popups and lots of typing. =)  What I really need to do is stop being so lazy and use the preview button instead of just clicking save right away. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 21:04, 18 November 2010 (UTC)

article names
I noticed and am planning to reverse several article name changes, which had moved articles about NRHP-listed places in the Oyster Bay, New York area from their NRHP listing name to some other name, in my view without justification. I commented about this at Talk:House at 103 Roslyn Avenue. Could you possibly please discuss there? Thanks. Keep up the good work editing! --doncram (talk) 16:35, 21 November 2010 (UTC)

Welcome
Hi, and welcome to WikiProject Articles for creation! We are a group of editors who work together on the Articles for creation and Images for upload pages.

A few tips that you might find helpful:
 * Please take time to fully read the reviewers' instructions before reviewing submissions.
 * The project's discussion board is the best place to ask for help or advice. You might like to watchlist this page, and you are encouraged to take part in any discussion that comes up.

Once again, welcome to the project. &mdash; Martin (MSGJ · talk) 10:53, 24 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Article submissions that need reviewing can be found in Category:Pending AfC submissions and there is also a useful list which is maintained by a bot.
 * You might wish to add AFC status to your userpage, which will alert you to the number of open submissions. There is also a project userbox. If you haven't done so already, please consider adding your name to the list of participants.
 * Several of our members monitor the IRC channel, and you are welcome to join in.

By the way, I think you should consider removing the editnotice on your talk page. Asking people not to leave you abusive messages seems to be rather pointless and unfair on the rest of us who have to read this message. Just a suggestion &mdash; Martin (MSGJ · talk) 10:55, 24 November 2010 (UTC)

Incorrect revert, no reason given (by you), incorrect statement that I had not given an Edit Summary
1) You reverted my edit with no explanation.

2) Wrote to my talk page claiming that I had removed information without explanation. (In fact, I left an edit summary with three reasons).

I know the rules very well indeed. Notability is not established in Wikipedia by association, and articles are encouraged to stay on topic. Specifically, Wikipedia is WP:NOT a directory: "Genealogical entries. Biography articles should only be for people with some sort of fame, achievement, or perhaps notoriety." and it's WP:NOT "A complete exposition of all possible details. Rather, an article is a summary of accepted knowledge regarding its subject". I.e., on topic. I.e., bullet points such as this are utterly inappropriate "His wife Jane Slidell was sister of US Senator John Slidell "

You can consult with others, but instead you might just consider the implication of an article of some well-known figure who has hundreds of relatives and in-laws with Wiki articles.

76.126.217.195 (talk) 14:35, 25 November 2010 (UTC)
 * You have ignored the note on the top of my page, do not leave abusive messages about Huggle as I was quickly scanning for vandalism and from what I saw, you removed content. Please try again with a detailed edit summary. Just to remind you of the note  Puffin  ''Lets talk! 16:17, 25 November 2010 (UTC)

You're right but...
Although in my opinion it was correct to revert it, edits like these are test edits rather than vandalism, and are a common way for users that would like to experiment with Wikipedia. Thank you, and keep up the good anti-vandalism work. Minima c  ( talk ) 21:21, 25 November 2010 (UTC)
 * I do use the "huggletest" option whereas other users just automatically use the vandalism button. However, there were a lot of warnings stacked up at that time, so I just used the quick way. The vandal warning does provide a link to the sandbox, so it doesn't really matter. Thanks anyway.  Puffin  ''Lets talk! 21:23, 25 November 2010 (UTC)

Inappropriate edits to Peter Lilley and The Palestine Telegraph
Hello. Back in November, you reverted the removal of content from these articles, which resulted in restoring poorly sourced negative allegations against living people. This is not appropriate, per WP:BLP policy. These are the specific edits: ,. I'm going to assume good faith and that you simply didn't examine the reference for these claims, because it is transparently not from a reliable source. Note that the editor removing the content was the one who added it in the first place; perhaps he realised the source was unreliable and was correcting his mistake. Your presumed attempts to revert vandalism actually made both articles worse. Please take more care in future, particularly when dealing with controversial allegations about living people. Robofish (talk) 14:06, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
 * It's not fair! I'm always getting blamed for EVERYTHING that I do. I was quickly patrolling for vandalism and as you can clearly see, it may have been a mistake. You don't have to bite me because of it. Also, the user didn't even give an edit summary. Please don't call me horrible names.  Puffin  ''Lets talk! 17:05, 21 January 2011 (UTC)

Hap Glaudi
I've tagged Hap Glaudi for speedy deletion under criterion G11, the article promotes his life and is very much written like a newspaper editorial or obituary that only promotes the good of a person rather then mentioning the negative aspects of their life. —  Ancient Apparition •  Champagne?  • 10:25pm • 11:25, 26 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Off-topic, that notice at the top of your talk page is rather encouraging and I'd suggest you remove it per WP:DNFT also when reviewing recent changes try not to skim through edits and take some time to review the edits and see if they're actually unconstructive rather than making an instant decision. Automated tools are meant as aids, they're no substitute for one's own judgment though! Otherwise, keep up the good work! Regards, —  Ancient Apparition •  Champagne?  • 10:52pm • 11:52, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

Edits to Quest University page
Dear Puffin, Thanks for the message about the Quest University wiki entry. I appreciate your efforts to keep wikipedia's quality high.

Let me explain my changes. The Quest University page was woefully out of date and did not have supporting references. I have gone in to update information, add citations to the proper documents when possible, and remove redundant or inaccurate information.


 * I've added details about the university and its programs based not on speculation, but on current university documents. (See the sections on academics and study abroad, for instance.)


 * I've provided some details about institutional accreditation -- and provided supporting links for those details.
 * I've cleaned up the section on academics, adding references to the specific nature of the program (including references to the documents that guide the degree program), to the quality of the program based on the NSSE surveys, and provided some details about the program.
 * I've updated the tuition costs and the information about average costs in Canada.
 * I've removed the section on "enrolment" because the current enrolment is already mentioned elsewhere in the document.
 * I have begun to work on the "history" section of the page to provide a more detailed account of the origins and development of the university.

I can go back and redo these changes, adding more detail to the description of the changes if necessary. Please advise.

All the best,

Commons question
what is wikipedia commons — Preceding unsigned comment added by Puffin (talk • contribs) 20:47, 9 April 2011


 * Commons is a common area for storing media - pictures, sounds and videos - which can then be used on English Wikipedia, or any of the other language wikis, or on other Sister projects (Wikinews, Wikisource, etc). Generally, all 'free to use' images should be uploaded to Commons. There is an article about it - Wikimedia Commons.  Chzz  ► 21:01, 9 April 2011 (UTC)

Birth date for Moustapha Akkad
I wanted to change the incorrect birthdate for Director Moustapha Akkad to the correct date July 19th, 1930. It says July 1st now, and we have been getting brithday wishes due to wikipeia - I know it is not the most urgent change, but thought it better to be correct. I am a close family member and can assure you that it is the 19th.

It didn't let me so I thought I would try this way.

In any case, thanks. Msafilms (talk) 22:45, 1 July 2011 (UTC)

Moustapha Akkad
I am not versed in the wiki world - so am having a bit of trouble navigating - but...

Oddly all the sites have it wrong, and I think some of that is due to wikipedia as the source. Again, it isn't all that important, but...

I would be happy to send you verification if it can be done privately?

Thanks. Msafilms (talk) 22:42, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Welcome to Wikipedia, if you have any questions - I will answer them. It's quite unlikely that every site is wrong but then again, they may be wrong. If your verification is a verifiable third party source, then it could be changed. Pleas read WP:SOURCES.

Hello Puffin & thanks for the correction information. I finished editing & "hopefully" the references are corrected. Thanks for your time - Amienutter Amienutter (talk) 17:27, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

afc decline
Hi, you declined User:Debbyweaver/Enter_your_new_article_name_here, (I help the user in the IRC channel), but I think your reason for this submission for decline is wrong. He has sourced it and MOS look also correctly. The references which are used, may not reliable nor correct, but that would be a reason to declining it. Would you correct the reason? <b style="font-family:Courier New; display:inline; border:#009 1px dashed; padding:1px 6px 2px 7px; white-space:nowrap; color:#000000; font-size:smaller;">mabdul</b> 15:38, 7 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Please change it. I must leave now.  Puffin  ''Let's talk! 15:44, 7 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Actually, you're in the wrong! Your corrupt, unethical and unconstitutional behavior has made me go back and the phrase "Recent media attention has deemed Ms. LoGiudice a "rising star." is original research.  Puffin  ''Let's talk! 19:39, 7 July 2011 (UTC)

Starting GA review
I am starting the GA review of Pancake! Good luck! Reaper Eternal (talk) 20:06, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
 * ...And I am considering quick-failing it given the massive violations of WP:RS, WP:NOR, and WP:MOS. Additionally, considering that you never worked on the article, why did you nominate it for GA in such a state? Reaper Eternal (talk) 20:29, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
 * I have no idea.  Puffin  ''Let's talk! 21:32, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry, but I've had to fail the article, as I do not believe it meets the GA criteria at all. I have replied on the GA review as to the major points that need addressing, and, after you have fixed them all up, I'd be happy to take a look over the article again to see if it would be ready for another WP:GAN. Good luck, and maybe I'll see it again in a much better state! Reaper Eternal (talk) 00:03, 9 July 2011 (UTC)

Dearest Puffin: Thank you so much for correcting my oh-so-incorrect "Polythene Pam" lyrics. I was relying exclusively on my memory and did not check the original source, the Abbey Road album itself. Kudos to you-dos. Writtenright (talk) 22:59, 8 July 2011 (UTC)Writtenright
