Reviewer permission

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

For the guideline on reviewing, see Wikipedia:Reviewing. Being granted reviewer rights doesn't change how you can edit articles even with pending changes. The general help page on pending changes can be found here, and the general policy for the trial can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 02:52, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

Keep it up!

Wrong warning. Ocean Shores (Formerly TEK) 00:48, 10 August 2010 (UTC)

oh my gosh i am so sorry! Sometimes when I go to manually warn a vandal, it warns the vandal fighter if someone else reverts it before i do. I actually came here to say keep up the great work! Tommy! [message] 17:57, 10 August 2010 (UTC)

You are too fast!

Keep it up though! T (Formerly Known as FireSpike) 02:14, 12 August 2010 (UTC)

Talk page protection

If you want, I (or you) could put in a request at WP:RFPP for a temporary protection of your talkpage - judging by the history, it's getting pretty bad. Connormah 17:26, 13 August 2010 (UTC)

I'd like to ask this again - would you like me to put a request in? Connormah 22:01, 14 August 2010 (UTC)

Sorry about that, I got a little busy, anyways, I think the page is fine without it. I would like other users to communicate with me, as long as it is in a proper manner. Thanks. L Kensington (talk • contribs) 22:04, 14 August 2010 (UTC)

Fair enough - I've got it watchlisted anyways, I'll revert anything I see that is inappropriate. Connormah 02:19, 15 August 2010 (UTC)

Edits

In REGARDS TO DEERFIELD HIGH SCHOOL:

Unfortunatly the article I sent you is blocked. It is a list of Illinois All State Debaters since 2000. In my edits I noted those who were from Deerfield high School and were all state multiple years. I do not wish to have anything regarding John Lee's hand motions or Sam Rothbloom's ego (that is the words of a less intelligent friend haha). All I wish is for the last line to be "The 2010-2011 captains are Sam Rothbloom and John Lee." —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.26.235.157 (talk) 04:14, 14 August 2010 (UTC)

Can the information in regards to debate read as follows?:

The Congressional Debate team (Student Congress) is ubiquitous, and is one of the largest clubs at the high school. It has been one of the premier programs in the Illinois Congressional Debate Organization for the past decade, and over the past four years has established itself as the best team in the state. The Deerfield team has claimed first place at every congressional tournament for the past three years. The team has had a number of the top debaters in the state over the past decade. The Deerfield debate class of 2011 is one of the largest and most talented groups of seniors in ICDA, and has won an unprecedented number of awards at regular season tournaments, the tournament of champions ("TOC"), and the State Tournament. Notable alumni include: Chris Edelman, Gideon Sylvan, Jacob Klein, and Michelle Fox. The 2010-2011 captains are Sam Rothbloom and John Lee. 75.26.235.157 (talk) 04:22, 14 August 2010 (UTC)

Once again, I don't know how Chris Edelman, Gideon Sylvan, Jacob Klein, and Michelle Fox are notable. How do I know that they were even part of the team? It does not meet the notability criteria for wikipedia. Please see Wikipedia:Notability and also Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons Please justify it. They're relatively unknown. As for the 2010-2011 captains, it's really not necessary. The information will become dated, and they're also not meeting notability criteria.

On a side note, do these people even want their name mentioned? How do you know if they want privacy? Did you ask them? (You shouldn't either way, because none of the people you mentioned meet the notability criteria).

L Kensington (talk • contribs) 04:37, 14 August 2010 (UTC)

A very fair point. Because I am unable to contact the mentioned alumni, they are not necessary. However, I do feel that mentioning the recent captains is necessary. While it may only apply for a year, it is still information regarding the team. Perhaps the concept that a person "wishes to be notable" should qualify them as notable. For now, I will delete all "questionable material." 75.26.235.157 (talk) 04:43, 14 August 2010 (UTC)

Thank you

For reverting vandalism to my talk page. What disruptive accounts with agendas misunderstand is that political theory plays little part in successful editing; the effort to assign political position to my edits is not only erroneous, but embarrasses the vandal. Many thanks and good wishes, JNW (talk) 16:38, 14 August 2010 (UTC)

Leave it for 15 minutes

Thats all I ask. we told his mother it made wiki and she is about to look it up. please. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.215.169.66 (talk) 22:01, 14 August 2010 (UTC)

Josh Hall (yachtsman)

Hi. I have declined your speedy on this, because the version you tagged was the result of vandalism; under it in the history was a more respectable version, which I have restored. Notability marginal, perhaps, but at least it has a source and is not speediable. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 20:27, 15 August 2010 (UTC)

I was not aware

I was not aware that adding my name (a 3 time published author) to your author list was vandalism. I do apologize. How do I get my name on your list? --Chrmdgddss (talk) 01:50, 16 August 2010 (UTC)

Sorry, but adding your name when you aren't considered notable (no offense) is self promotion and indeed vandalism. Just don't do it again. L Kensington (talk • contribs) 05:33, 16 August 2010 (UTC)

Articles on Rodrigo de Vivero y Velasco and Rodrigo de Viveor y Aberrucia

Hi I was in the process of creating and correcting these articles when you reverted them. Now I have lost a lot of the work I had done. I couldn't understand why my changes kept being reverted. I had included a "misleading" note on the top of Rodrigo de Vivero y Velasco's page and started a discussion topic. You probably missed this. The note said that Rodrigo de Vivero y Velasco has been confused with his son Rodrigo de Vivero y Aberrucia. You can check this yourself here: http://www.worldstatesmen.org/Philippines.htm and also here http://cdigital.dgb.uanl.mx/la/1080012224/1080012224_10.pdf , as well as by reading the article on Tecamachalco in Spanish: http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tecamachalco It is beyond me how you can decide that the changes were unconstructive, before all this was in place and before reading these articles. These modifications are important, becauase the mistakes seem to have propagated to other languages here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Historiador12345 (talk • contribs) 05:02, 16 August 2010 (UTC)

Okay, sorry about that, but please also provide a edit summary when deleting large amounts of information. If you want I can revert all of my revisions to your last revision before my first change. This will also result in the reversion of anything you did after my first reversion of the article. L Kensington (talk • contribs) 05:26, 16 August 2010 (UTC)

I may be banned for vandalism

What for? I am just spreading a message for the word "kid" to be made obsolete because it is a cold, harsh word and that silly people who often use informal language use it only on boys which is extremely unfair. This deserves to be made aware of. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.8.148.236 (talk) 18:58, 17 August 2010 (UTC)

It's unconstructive, its false, it's biased, and anyone can use the word kid if they want without "going to hell". Keep doing it, and you will be blocked. L Kensington (talk • contribs) 19:03, 17 August 2010 (UTC)
