User talk:Skipple

A goat for you!
Thanks for finding a diplomatic solution for the dinosaur issue. I felt bad for the guy who was misquoted, this was a good solution that balanced guidelines with common sense.

 * Thanks! Yeah, it didn't feel right to continue to quote someone on an article who was adamant it was misattributed, regardless of WP:RSP  Skipple  ☎  13:34, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

Links to Wii Menu
So uh... there are currently a lot of articles and pages that link to Wii Menu. Not all of them will need ot be changed but I know the ones that a re a result from the "X Channel" redirects will (either that or their redirect targets need to be changed). ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 20:11, 6 September 2022 (UTC)


 * Yeah we can comb through the links. Should be easy enough to redirect -
 * Additional thought: If we are merging these articles, I am thinking the title of Wii system software needs to change to Wii software. It isn't just about the system software anymore (which in my mind refers to the operating system specifically)  Skipple  ☎  20:14, 6 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Ya that sounds like a good idea. Although "system software" could mean the same thing so I'd say we propose the move instead of doing it as I could see some opposition to it with the reasoning that "system software" can still mean things like the Channels. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 20:16, 6 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Yeah that makes sense - The only thing is that I am worried about attempting to fix links, only to have to do it all over again if we come to consensus to move the page. I suppose we can cross the bridge when we get to it.  Skipple  ☎  20:23, 6 September 2022 (UTC)
 * I say we figure out what stuff will be merged and then propose the move. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 00:02, 7 September 2022 (UTC)
 * I've begun to rework the article beyond the copy/pasting over on my sandbox. I am thinking some of the downloadable channels information can be removed as they are better suited to be described on the chart below. I'm also questioning the accuracy of 'pre-installed' channels as the article currently contradicts itself where only 4 channels were pre-installed at the time of release. That section is going to need a heafy rework and some research of what channels were released, how, and when.  Skipple  ☎  18:31, 7 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Alright sounds good. (also you don't have to ping me since I'm automatically notified when you reply) ― Blaze WolfTalk<sub title="Discord Username" style="margin-left:-22q;">Blaze Wolf#6545 18:32, 7 September 2022 (UTC)

I’ll like to work with you pls
What’s your phone number? Heray1804 (talk) 13:37, 15 September 2023 (UTC)


 * I am not giving out any personal information here or elsewhere. What would you like to work on?  - Skipple   ☎  13:38, 15 September 2023 (UTC)
 * I’ll like you to make a post for me for my artist for viral search if people want to look for my page on google Heray1804 (talk) 13:39, 15 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Hi, I would highly suggest creating a Draft article, then bring the article through the proper process. Take a look at Help:Your first article as this may help you through the process. It sounds like you may have a conflict of interest with the subject, so I would highly suggest reading through WP:COI as well.  - Skipple   ☎  13:47, 15 September 2023 (UTC)

I believe that you’re unfairly removing my edits.
Title says it all KillaTrav87 (talk) 03:13, 26 September 2023 (UTC)


 * Your edits are describing your personal point of view of the song. If you believe this criticism should be added to the article, I would suggest adding reliable sources that support this view.  - Skipple   ☎  03:15, 26 September 2023 (UTC)
 * I will add these sources shortly. KillaTrav87 (talk) 03:17, 26 September 2023 (UTC)

Rollback granted
Hi Skipple. After reviewing your request, I have enabled rollback on your account. Please keep the following things in mind while using 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 trouble or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Anarchyte ( talk ) 12:01, 26 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Being granted rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle. It just adds a [Rollback] button next to a page's latest live revision - that's all. It does not grant you any additional "status" on Wikipedia, nor does it change how Wikipedia policies apply to you.
 * Rollback should be used to revert clear and unambiguous cases of vandalism only . Never use rollback to revert good faith edits.
 * Rollback should never be used to edit war, and it should never be used in a content-related dispute to restore the page to your preferred revision. If rollback is abused or used for this purpose or any other inappropriate purpose, the rights will be revoked.
 * Use common sense. If you're not sure about something, ask!
