Edit description?
After BrownHairedGirl added {{Use dmy dates}} to an article, you changed all of the dates to that format. In the description of the edit you cited MOS:DATEFORMAT, which I found confusing, since there is no guidance there on which format to use. Isn't MOS:DATEUNIFY the appropriate section to cite? --Shmuel (Seymour J.) Metz Username:Chatul (talk) 12:39, 12 April 2022 (UTC)
- @Chatul: I didn't cite MOS:DATEFORMAT, the editing script I used did so. Ask the maintainer of that script what it should be citing in its edit messages. Guy Harris (talk) 18:33, 12 April 2022 (UTC)
macOS components past tense
Hi! Just wanted to know your take on the List of macOS components#Older applications section, and my edit. Since this section is solely regarding legacy software, I thought I would use the past tense (and looking from the other components in that same section, it seems that many others have also thought as such). What do you think of those? They could, of course, as well, be still running now, even if not supported anymore. Thanks! Silikonz (💬 | 🖋) 06:39, 16 April 2022 (UTC)
- Never mind. It seems that MOS:TENSE still stands. I was stuck on an earlier revision of the page, sorry.Silikonz (💬 | 🖋) 06:46, 16 April 2022 (UTC)

Hi Guy, I've done some work on History of email and related articles. Would welcome a second pair of eyes. Whizz40 (talk) 19:06, 18 April 2022 (UTC)
Rvv
Greetings, Guy Harris. Thank you for identifying and reinstating a reversion that needed to be made secondary to a mass rollback. As the administrator who performed the mass rollback, I appreciate it more than you know. However I was alerted to your reversion and your edit summary, and I must caution you that your edit summary was completely inappropriate. The edit was not vandalism, it contained a link to a direct explanation with all context articulated. Please be more careful when labeling good faith edits as “vandalism”, as it is technically a blockable offense. Regards, ~Swarm~ {sting} 02:10, 24 April 2022 (UTC)
