You are now a Reviewer

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 Wikipedia: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. Wifione _.......^{Leave a message} 10:22, 27 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Rollback

Hello, I have additionally 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 Wikipedia:Rollback feature to get to know the workings of the feature
You can test Rollback at Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback
You may wish to display the {{User wikipedia/rollback}} userbox and/or the {{Rollback}} top icon on your user page
Additionally, and most importantly, whenever you revert vandalism, you necessarily have to inform the editor whose edits you are reverting - whether the editor is an ip or a registered user, the reversion note is a must. I am writing this additional note as you seem to be a good editor who is crucially missing out on the reversion notes. Usage of automated tools like Huggle will help you in automating the note leaving process.

If you have any questions, please do let me know.

What...

Now why did you cut most of the article "Luther Perkins" off??? It was all true, and nothing seemed to be incorrect in there! Do you hate him or what? That is not very nice to delete most of an article, and of all articles you chose Luther Perkins! That guy is my hero for god's sakes! Juicefani11 (talk) 23:38, 3 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Am I missing something, or is IP just doing a simple WP:CONTESTED? [1] --CutOffTies (talk) 15:40, 6 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The mistake may be mine, but my understanding is that's it's frowned upon to remove a speedy deletion tag without any explanation. I was actually intending to add something to his page to encourage him to add the {{hangon}} tag because I'm not sure the page meets the criteria for speedy deletion. 15:47, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

The article had a wp:prod, not speedy deletion. --CutOffTies (talk) 15:53, 6 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I've gone and made a horrible mistake.... Maybe it's time to take a break...I thought that was a speedy delete tag. Humbly, thanks for your help. CarbonX (talk) 15:58, 6 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, so you're going to restore the removal of the prod, correct? --CutOffTies (talk) 16:20, 6 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Done. CarbonX (talk) 16:22, 6 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hum

Yeah You are correct that 1.) I am the main contributor to the article, 2.) it contains a lot of unsourced information, and 3.) it's difficult to source. I'd be happy to work with you on this one, but the best places to start are their allmusic biography, RCA's press bio, and an article in a 1998 issue of Rolling Stone (I have all of these links in a folder at home entitled HUM). If you want to start pruning it soon, I have no malice; thanks for e-mail me. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 22:41, 8 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The Wild Tchoupitoulas

Greetings, User:CarbonX! Please take a look at what I've written on Talk:The Wild Tchoupitoulas#Attention needed. I believe it would be great for the page to be developed and expanded. Perhaps you might list it for attention by the Wikipedia:Wiki Project New Orleans (which is tagged with a "possibly inactive" template...) or the WP:Louisiana. I only have web-search resources and these are inadequate to provide the historical and biographical content that might be available to you and your local/regional colleagues. (Editing in my fields of expertise, I do actual library look-ups and cite print media to which I'm personally subscribed.) -- Cheers, Deborahjay (talk) 15:12, 7 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for December 10

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Jody McDonald, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages WIP and WTEL. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Vandalism of Arnaudville Page

You removed valuable information, (all of which is true might I add), from the Arnaudville, Louisiana page. As a resident of Arnaudville, I can say that I am deeply well-informed of who is our mayor, the last entry was erroneous, and submitted by former-mayor Richard, who is now little more than a town-hall assistant. I was there when Donald was elected, and for you to try to take away his lifetime of achievements is offensive to say the least.

Please undo your rollback, or submit proof that this imposter

2019 US Banknote Contest

US Banknote Contest

November-December 2019

There are an estimated 30,000 different varieties of United States banknotes, yet only a fraction of these are represented on Wikimedia Commons in the form of 2D scans. Additionally, Colonial America, the Confederate States, the Republic of Texas, multiple states and territories, communities, and private companies have issued banknotes that are in the public domain today but are absent from Commons.

In the months of November and December, WikiProject Numismatics will be running a cross-wiki upload-a-thon, the 2019 US Banknote Contest. The goal of the contest is to increase the number of US banknote images available to content creators on all Wikimedia projects. Participants will claim points for uploading and importing 2D scans of US banknotes, and at the end of the contest all will receive awards. Whether you want to claim the Gold Wiki or you just want to have fun, all are invited to participate.

If you do not want to receive invitations to future US Banknote Contests, follow the instructions here
