If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Help Desk. Thanks. &#9666; ‎épine talk &#9836; 14:37, 3 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi, I think you misread my edit. I did not change the article to say the flat Earth had no evidence, those actions were done by an IP user. Snidester (talk) 14:38, 3 March 2018 (UTC)
 * apperantly I mistook it. Working on a RTL Wikipedia sometime confuses me when I get back to a LTR. sorry!--&#9666; ‎épine talk &#9836; 14:40, 3 March 2018 (UTC)
 * It's alright, I've noticed a couple people have mistakenly reversed my edits after mistakenly reading me as the vandal. But of course, I'm not an 8 year old living in his moms basement, I know that screwing up an encyclopedia relied on by millions for a quick laugh is dumb. Snidester (talk) 14:49, 3 March 2018 (UTC)

Snidester (talk) 21:27, 9 March 2018 (UTC) yeah I think I can just stick to fighting vandalism and occasional copyediting

A barnstar for you!

 * Thank you! Snidester (talk) 21:03, 6 March 2018 (UTC) ~

Note from a Stars fan
The stars have a very low chance of making the playoffs right now, but at the current rate, I feel like if we even made it we'd probably be done in like 4 or 5 games. Snidester (talk) 04:26, 2 April 2018 (UTC)

Antisemitic editor
Hi, Snidester, thanks for warning. With those types of edits, you may want to consider alerting an admin directly another time, through WP:AIV or WP:ANI or someone you know. Characters like that don't need all the warning levels IMO, and I have blocked them. Regards, Bishonen &#124; talk 22:26, 2 April 2018 (UTC).


 * I saw that you blocked them. From this, I can see that Wikipedia has a no tolerance policy for hate speech, and will report those editors to an admin next time. Snidester (talk) 16:42, 3 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Cool. Yep, there's absolutely no tolerance for hate speech. I don't know that we have a formal policy, exactly, but admins don't tolerate it. Bishonen &#124; talk 20:08, 7 April 2018 (UTC).

Rollback granted
Hi Snidester. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=rights&user=&page=User%3ASnidester 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 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 troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! S warm  ♠  02:35, 5 April 2018 (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.

Disambiguation link notification for April 22
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Brett Maher (gridiron football), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Punter ([//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/Brett_Maher_%28gridiron_football%29 check to confirm] | [//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/Brett_Maher_%28gridiron_football%29?client=notify fix with Dab solver]). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Speedy deletion declined: Draft:Webster Park: Milwaukee
Hello Snidester. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Draft:Webster Park: Milwaukee, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: A3 only applies to articles, not drafts. Thank you. ~ Amory  (u • t • c) 20:53, 20 May 2018 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Draft:Burn the Evidence
Hello Snidester. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Draft:Burn the Evidence, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: feels silly to decline this, but technically this isn't quite yet 6 months old. Thank you. GorillaWarfare (talk) 21:26, 20 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Yes thank you, I already noticed that before tho (that as of today, in my town, it must be from November 20 2017 or earlier).
