Stub tags
Please take care not to add stub to an article like DAFNE which already has a specific stub tag, and remember  that all stub tags go at the end not the top, see WP:ORDER. Thanks. Pam D  04:30, 11 December 2019 (UTC)

"Wikiclinic" listed at Redirects for discussion
An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect Wikiclinic. Since you had some involvement with the Wikiclinic redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you wish to do so. ComplexRational (talk) 00:31, 29 December 2019 (UTC)

Hi, you undid an edit I performed, claiming I hadn't adequately explained why, despite my explanation of the edit in the edit summary. It's ok, another editor has already reverted your change. Just wanted you to know in case it was an errant bot or something automated that was malfunctioning. Peace. 75.170.229.227 (talk) 22:59, 31 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Hello there, I would like to apologize for that. I didn't notice that you have provided an edit summary. Sorry! In addition, I will also pull the warning from your talk page.(and no, I'm not a bot :))  The creeper2007 Talk! 23:02, 31 May 2020 (UTC) Edited on 23:03, 31 May 2020 (UTC) 23:20, 31 May 2020 (UTC)

Question
Why is removing long-standing unsourced text ([such as in this case) considered bad faith editing and/or vandalism, risking the punishment of a block, as opposed to a plethora of other cases where it does not constitute a problem? Please clarify so I can avoid making such mistakes in the future. Thanks. 2604:2000:EFC0:12:7922:1B66:98F2:E6E1 (talk) 20:18, 3 July 2020 (UTC)

Relisting
Hey again. Relisting AfDs is, to my knowledge, exclusively done by sysops. Also, I see you've relisted some discussions (like this one) when they had already been relisted two times (WP:RELIST says: in general, debates should not be relisted more than twice). What probably needs to happen is that a sysop goes through the discussions you relisted, though to be honest I don't really know; you should contact User:Sandstein (or another regular AfD closer) about this. Kind regards from PJvanMill  ( talk ) 23:39, 4 July 2020 (UTC)

 * I've left a message on User:Sandstein's talk page. These discussions will soon be looked at by administrators anyhow, so I expect things will be fine. Kind regards from PJvanMill  ( talk ) 14:25, 5 July 2020 (UTC)

Saverio Guerra
Please explain this vendetta against actor Saverio Guerra. Why does his page keep disappearing. I would like to "civilly" ask for an explanation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rarmin (talk • contribs) 20:25, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
 * I have the answer to your question. If you would re-ask your question in a AGF and civil way, I would answer it.  The creeper2007Talk!   Be well, stay safe 20:34, 11 July 2020 (UTC)

Saverio Guerra
Hi, I'm curious as to why Saverio Guerra, actor, was deleted from Wikipedia. I would be most grateful for information. Thank you. Rarmin (talk) 20:45, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Hello Rarmin, I reconsidered the fact and I moved the page back to article space. The reason I have draftified it is because the fact that it is unsourced. but, then I noticed that it have a long page history, so I moved it back and started a deletion discussion about the notability of the subject of the article.  Feel free to participate in the discussion at Articles for deletion/Saverio Guerra  The creeper2007Talk!   Be well, stay safe 20:49, 11 July 2020 (UTC)

Thank you. Sorry if my "vendetta" comment was taken personally. This has been a bizarre set of circumstances. Larry David built the entire season of Curb Your Enthusiasm around Saverio Guerra's character. How could there even be a discussion about the worthiness of an actor with featured roles on three hit series? Someone who dislikes Guerra personally seems to started this series of deletions. I will be happy to move this conversation to the deletion page, but I think the very suggestion of a deletion is strange. It is quite possible that Guerra will be nominated for an Emmy later this month. Will that establish his value as an actor? Again, I mean no disrespect to you and appreciate your help with this. Rarmin (talk) 20:57, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Well, if the actor is nominated, then it is for sure notable. The thing is, we dont know yet and there aren't enough sources on the page.  and, either way, the page's quality seems very low, so even if they do get nominated, then I would still suggest to Blow it all up and start again. Also, I would also bring the fact that they might get nominated on the deletion discussion page.  The creeper2007Talk!   Be well, stay safe 21:00, 11 July 2020 (UTC)

Thanks. I didn't create this page and agree that it is weak. I will prepare a more properly sourced page and see what happens on July 28 (Emmy announcements). Thanks again. Rarmin (talk) 21:04, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
 * I'm thinking that if they get nominated for Emmy, then there would be media coverage of the actor. If there isn't, it is very likely that they still won't meet notability guidelines.  Again, please post your thoughts at Articles for deletion/Saverio Guerra. I would also add that we don't know if they would be nominated, so per Wikipedia is not a crystal ball, it should be deleted.  The creeper2007Talk!   Be well, stay safe 21:22, 11 July 2020 (UTC)

Hi. Thanks again for your support. I would appreciate it if you could delete my comments about Saverio Guerra, as I am withdrawing any interest in his page. Do whatever you think is best. Rarmin (talk) 23:23, 11 July 2020 (UTC)

Rollback granted
Hi The creeper2007. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have&#32;temporarily [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=rights&user=&page=User%3AThe_creeper2007 enabled] rollback on your account for one month. 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! GeneralNotability (talk) 17:53, 15 July 2020 (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.
 * Actually, after reading the talk page discussion from earlier today, I've revoked rollback. Please consider enrolling in WP:CVUA and your trainer can recommend when you should get rollback. GeneralNotability (talk) 18:05, 15 July 2020 (UTC)

Congratulations!

Retired?!?
Hey creeper2007.

Sorry to see that you've put up a retirement notice and especially to read the text under it. I would like you to know that I don't think the community sees you as a "hassle". It's just that you were going too fast. I definitely like your enthusiasm, but it has happened that your enthusiasm had you charging into things for which you didn't have the necessary knowledge or experience.

I think you can be a good editor if you take things a bit more slowly, maybe ask for advice more (my door is open )... And maybe it would be an idea to do more of the 'good old' article work, as there is a lot you can learn there that is also helpful for other Wikipedia activities. Perhaps you would be interested in fixing broken articles at WP:cleanup?

Anyway, I think this would be a sad ending to your 'Wikipedia journey'.

Kind regards from  PJvanMill ) talk ( 00:37, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
