Twinkle and user warnings

Hey Lcodyh803,

you may like to try the "Twinkle" gadget, available in the preferences, to undo consecutive problematic edits. It also allows you to easily explain your reverts to users, using warnings from the list at Wikipedia:Template_messages/User_talk_namespace automatically.

When using Twinkle, please use the blue "rollback" button to provide an explanation for the revert. Please only use the red "VANDAL" link if the edit is really obviously malicious. See the following pages for details:

WP:Vandalism (you may think you know this already, but please do read it before continuing, as it does contain important information that many recent changes patrollers seem to forget)
WP:3RR (which builds upon the strict definition of "vandalism" as being malicious)
WP:ROLLBACKUSE for a list of the very few cases when clicking "VANDAL" is okay.

I hope you'll enjoy the tool.

Best regards

Thanks for the heads-up ToBeFree! It's super useful :) Lcodyh803 (talk) 03:33, 1 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You're welcome, I'm happy to hear that and to see you using it.

I've noticed that you had given a good warning to one of the users I have recently blocked. That's perfect. Feel free to ask on my talk page at any time if questions arise. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 03:40, 1 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Archiving talk page

Hi Lcodyh803, you may find WP:ARCHIVING helpful as there are automated scripts you can use. I personally use OneClickArchiver. S0091 (talk) 03:41, 2 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Wade White (curler) (January 17)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by CatcherStorm was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject. Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Wade White (curler) and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Wade White (curler), click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.
