Happy editing! PhilKnight (talk) 04:42, 3 December 2024 (UTC)

Another welcome

Hey there! I just wanted to say that I am glad you are still here fighting vandalism after your unfortunate time with edit filters. Also, when you get autoconfirmed (tommorow) you might be interested in WP:Twinkle to help your anti-vandalism work. Anyway, have a good day! win8x (talk) 02:39, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

@Win8x Hi, thanks (edit filters are still being annoying if I go too fast though...anyway to get them to stop?). I'll try twinkle tommorrow SomeHelpfulEditor (talk) 02:45, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

Well, the filter that was bugging you before was only checking for 1 day old accounts, which doesn't apply now. The filter you're talking about now stops when you get autoconfirmed, which will happen tommorow (4 day old account and 10 edits).

So tommorow, along with unlocking Twinkle, most edit filters should stop annoying you as you account will be 4 days old. win8x (talk) 02:51, 6 December 2024 (UTC)
