February 2017

Hello, I'm Adam9007. I noticed that in this edit to Belle S. Spafford, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Adam9007 (talk) 01:44, 19 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Adam9007: I apologize for not explaining in detail my reasoning behind deleting the list of publications on the Belle S. Spafford page. Currently, this page is under review for Good Article status. The reviewer does not believe that the list of publications establishes notability for Spafford, and is ultimately unnecessary. Therefore, I deleted the list in order to move forward with the review. (The exchanges can be read here on the talk page.) But I should have explained my actions more thoroughly. Once again, my apologies. Unless I hear back from you otherwise, I will remove the extensive list of articles from Spafford's page with a proper explanation in the edit summary. Thanks for your diligence. JAGrace (BYU) (talk) 02:05, 19 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Account creator granted

After reviewing your request for the "accountcreator" permission, I have enabled the flag on your account. Keep in mind these things:

The account creator right removes the limit on the maximum number of new accounts that can be created in a 24-hour period.
The account creator right is not a status symbol. If it remains unused, it is likely to be removed. Abuse of the account creator right will result in its removal by an administrator.

If you no longer require the right, let me know, or ask any other administrator. Drop a note on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of the account creator right. Happy editing! — xaosflux ^Talk 18:01, 31 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited The Stand, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Sundance (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
