AA porn list
Hi, looking at the list there seem to be a number of articles which fail WP:PORNBIO for instance Ebony Ayes, Bobby Blake, Tyson Cane. Any idea why they haven't been been tagged prod/AfD? Lionel (talk) 02:55, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Your guess is as good as mine, dude. Why not be bold and put them through AfD?  Whose Your Guy (talk) 10:45, 21 August 2010 (UTC)

Thanks!
Thanks for all your work on Wikipedia! It looks like you're off to a great start and have already an impressive bit of work under your belt! Be sure, though, to always assume good faith and avoid biting folks, particularly when they seem to be oblivious to the rules. It is a complex ship we run here, but would not be much if we didn't do everything we could to encourage contributions. Thanks again and let me know if you run into any problems. --TeaDrinker (talk) 00:02, 23 September 2010 (UTC)

Hi there. While the stub was an ugly mess, I am glad that your Prod was removed. Please, before you prod or nominate an article for deletion, try to check Google scholar or Google books first for possible good sources. If you don't have time to fix it yourself, tag it and send a message to the creator and the appropriate wiki-project. Bearian (talk) 19:49, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

Richard Petty Motorsports
Why did you delete the changes made to the Richard Petty Motorsports page? if you watch NASCAR you'd know what was put on the page was true. or if you go to nascar.com and click news then sprint cup there would be plenty of articles dealing with it. and rpm hasnt suspended their operations of the #9. Jason Shew (shewy) (talk) 22:29, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Consider looking at the WP:NOTNEWS section. The changes I am reverting aren't proper for the article until AFTER the season ends.  Whose Your Guy (talk) 22:38, 22 October 2010 (UTC)

Then you need to change Red Bull Racing Team's and Kasey Kahne's pages too then, and maybe the Hendrick Motorsports, Marcos Ambrose, Bobby Labonte, JTG Daugherty Racing pages too since those are all connected and havent happened yet WP:FUTURE if you change one of those articles then the rest dont make sense. all those articles have what you deleted in the RPM page.Jason Shew (shewy) (talk) 23:36, 22 October 2010 (UTC)

A message waiting for you...

 * At Requests for permissions/Rollback. Regards.  Wifione    .......  Leave a message  12:32, 17 December 2010 (UTC)

Reviewer permission
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 revisions, underwent a two-month trial which ended on 15 August 2010. Its continued use is still being discussed by the community, you are free to participate in such discussions. Many articles still have pending changes protection applied, however, and the ability to review pending changes continues to be of use.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under level 1 pending changes and edits made by non-reviewers to level 2 pending changes protected articles (usually high traffic articles). Pending changes was 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 grant you status nor 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 user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. HJ Mitchell &#124;  Penny for your thoughts?   17:45, 17 December 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.

Kankuro Kisato
Hi, I just wanted to let you know why I denied the speedy deletion request for Kankuro Kisato. Worldlingo is a wikimirror, they copied us so not a copyright violation. If you look at the bottom of the page it even says so. Happy Holidays, — J04n(talk page) 23:56, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks for letting me know. It's not a problem having a speedy denied, sometimes I am wrong on things.  :)  Whose Your Guy (talk) 00:49, 18 December 2010 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

New deal for page patrollers
Hi ,

In order to better control the quality  of new pages, keep out the spam, and welcome the genuine newbies, the current system we introduced in 2011 is being updated and improved. The documentation and tutorials have also been revised and given a facelift. Most importantly a new user group New Page Reviewer has been created.

Under the new rule, you may find that you are temporarily unable to mark new pages as reviewed. However, this is nothing to worry about - most current experienced patrollers are being accorded the the new right without the need to apply, and if you have significant previous experience of patrolling new pages, we strongly encourage you to apply for the new right as soon as possible - we need all the help we can get, and we are now providing a dynamic, supportive environment for your work.

Find out more about this exiting new user right now at New Page Reviewers and be sure to read the new tutorial before applying. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 04:29, 13 November 2016 (UTC)
