Rollback granted
Hi Wiki-Coffee. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=rights&user=&page=User%3AWiki-Coffee 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! –  Juliancolton  &#124; Talk 16:31, 31 January 2017 (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.

Speedy deletion declined: Hans Hulsbosch
Hello Wiki-Coffee, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Hans Hulsbosch, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: '''Hulsbosch has won most of the national and international advertising and design awards. is an assertion of importance sufficient to avoid A7.''' You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you.  Ϣere Spiel  Chequers  22:15, 1 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Did you bother checking the references... Wiki-Coffee  Talk 23:36, 1 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Do you have a concern about the DailyTelegraph.com.au? No opinion as to whether the article would survive AFD, but if we are discussing the quality of the references it is not an A7.  Ϣere Spiel  Chequers  06:18, 2 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Not so much quality as to if they actually link to something. Wiki-Coffee  Talk 18:26, 2 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Yes, wp:Linkrot is a big problem, this is what the article looked like in 2010 I suspect that many of those links could be recovered if you went to the Wayback_Machine, the risk is that some people simply remove deadlinks not realising how important they are for tracking down references. I'm hoping that eventually we can get a bot that links to the Wayback machine automatically as links go dead. We already have 144,000 articles with the Dead link template, and that's just for articles where people have unsuccessfully tried to find where the page has moved to or been archived. The number of articles where one or more references no longer work must be far greater - and hugely increased this week with the US government sites being Trumped. But speedy deletion or indeed deletion is not the solution to old articles effected by linkrot, especially when at least one reference still worked.

 * I have not studied wp:Linkrot or its effects so much here on Wikipedia so your information is awesome, I will look into it. I also didn't note the date the article was created and assumed it was created recently with deliberate dead link placement. Well this is a learning experience, thank you. And furthermore, a bot would be very useful which automatically detects dead links however the implemention would be very difficult especially if the process was to be completely automated. Again, thank you for taking the time to inform me of these issues. Wiki-Coffee  Talk 19:06, 2 February 2017 (UTC)
 * No problem, this place can be a tad complicated at times. Would you mind removing or striking your speedy deletion note to User:Philologists? Also please be careful when you tag someone's edit as vandalism. Rollback is for blatant vandalism, not for disputes as to whether Chairs are Chairmen or Chairwomen. There's an upset probable newbie at User_talk:66.31.155.91.  Ϣere Spiel  Chequers  21:50, 2 February 2017 (UTC)
 * ✅ With regard to User_talk:66.31.155.91 I had thought that he'd changed a description referring to the male in the article deliberately from chairman to chairwoman. I will have to look more at context next time, thank you for drawing my attention to it.   Wiki-Coffee  Talk 01:05, 3 February 2017 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Renard Widarto
Hello Wiki-Coffee. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Renard Widarto, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: The article makes a credible assertion of importance or significance, sufficient to pass A7.  Thank you.
