Page mover permissions
[edit]Hey Cyberdog958. Thanks for your RM closures. Would you like page mover permissions? (If so, would you first familiarize yourself with the Wikipedia:Page mover policy?) SilverLocust 💬 06:23, 31 December 2024 (UTC)
- @SilverLocust: Hi SilverLocust. I have actually been reviewing the page mover policy for a while and I was already planning on requesting the perm soon so yes I would appreciate having page mover so I don't have to add to the WP:RMTR queue more than I already have. cyberdog958Talk 20:12, 31 December 2024 (UTC)
Page mover granted
[edit]
Hello, Cyberdog958. Your account has been granted the "extendedmover" user right, either following a request for it or demonstrating familiarity with working with article names and moving pages. You are now able to rename pages without leaving behind a redirect, move subpages when moving the parent page(s), and move category pages.
Please take a moment to review Wikipedia:Page mover for more information on this user right, especially the criteria for moving pages without leaving a redirect. Please remember to follow post-move cleanup procedures and make link corrections where necessary, including broken double-redirects when suppressredirect is used. This can be done using Special:WhatLinksHere. It is also very important that no one else be allowed to access your account, so you should consider taking a few moments to secure your password. As with all user rights, be aware that if abused, or used in controversial ways without consensus, your page mover status can be revoked.
Useful links:
- Wikipedia:Requested moves
- Category:Requested moves, for article renaming requests awaiting action.
If you do not want the page mover right anymore, just let me know, and I'll remove it. Thank you, and happy editing! SilverLocust 💬 00:07, 1 January 2025 (UTC)
Amanda Bynes talk page
[edit]Hi there, I saw that you made a recent edit to the Amanda Bynes page. I left a note on the talk page regarding adding her birthdate to the article, but wasn’t sure how to make an edit request similar to the other ones on that page. Hope that this note makes it to you. 2604:3D09:A47F:FDE0:E1FB:6028:2F93:3FF1 (talk) 03:47, 6 January 2025 (UTC)
- Hello IP. It looks like the info was removed erroneously by an editor, but I replaced the birthday back in the article with the proper citation. Thanks for the request. If you need to make any further requests to a page, you can always use the edit request wizard to place the request on the page you want to change. cyberdog958Talk 04:17, 6 January 2025 (UTC)

rollback
[edit]
Hi Cyberdog958. After reviewing your request, I have enabled rollback on your account. Please keep the following things in mind while using rollback:
- Being granted rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle or Ultraviolet. It just adds a [Rollback] button next to a page's latest live revision - that's all. It does not grant you any additional "status" on Wikipedia, nor does it change how Wikipedia policies apply to you.
- Rollback should be used to revert clear and unambiguous cases of vandalism only. Never use rollback to revert good faith edits.
- Rollback should never be used to edit war, and it should never be used in a content-related dispute to restore the page to your preferred revision. If rollback is abused or used for this purpose or any other inappropriate purpose, the rights will be revoked.
- Use common sense. If you're not sure about something, ask!
If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into trouble or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Beeblebrox Beebletalks 00:00, 18 January 2025 (UTC)
RM/TR
[edit]Thanks for those TR moves, I'll handle the rest of the cleanup from here. TiggerJay (talk) 07:03, 28 January 2025 (UTC)
- @Tiggerjay: No problem, thanks for your work in RMs. There aren’t enough users reviewing these discussions so the work you’re doing is appreciated. cyberdog958Talk 07:08, 28 January 2025 (UTC)
