Be careful with Twinkle

[edit]

Hi VandTrack, and welcome. I just wanted to drop a line asking that you be a little careful with Twinkle. I don't care myself, and certainly you don't either when reverting yourself, but when reverting edits like you did here do take care not to call edits "vandalism" unless they truly are vandalism. Twinkle offers three types of rollbacks, all of which are, for the most part, functionally equivalent, but the "vandal" one is likely to attract more attention somewhat as a "callout" to other editors to keep an eye on that person. Inappropriately using that button might be construed as a personal attack. Naturally, unless you intended to attack yourself, I'm sure that's not what you meant here (and if you did intend that, I do suggest you get some professional help), but I figured I'd drop a line just to inform you for the future. If you have any questions let me know. Regards, Shirik (Questions or Comments?) 06:06, 24 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

To add onto what Shirik was saying, pressing the "undo" button will allow you to add your own summary. It takes a bit longer but is sometimes worth it's weight in gold. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 06:10, 24 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
