The article creator indicated he made a duplicate entry (per log on Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation/Help desk). He was trying to get one of them deleted, and thus blanked it. --Cahk (talk) 10:10, 1 December 2018 (UTC)
- Thanks, I reverted my undo. CarelessWombat (talk) 10:11, 1 December 2018 (UTC)
December 2018
[edit]Hello, I'm Wtmitchell. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions —specifically this edit to Shrek (franchise)— because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Help Desk. Thanks. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 10:28, 6 December 2018 (UTC)
- Hey Wtmitchell, I think that was an error. I reverted your RollBack just in case. Check your talk page for more info :) CarelessWombatLet's Talk! 10:35, 6 December 2018 (UTC)
Apology
[edit]I'm very sorry for reverting your recent edit. Happy editing ―Abelmoschus Esculentus talk / contribs 10:35, 6 December 2018 (UTC)
- Haha, 2 people reverted my rollback and I was really confused. No problem, have a great day Abelmoschus Esculentus! CarelessWombatLet's Talk! 10:38, 6 December 2018 (UTC)
Do you find it odd the nominator of the RfC has an edit history that looks like this? Not typical newbie. Also mention the policy and guideline issues raised were never addressed by the spliters. IMO this was at best a NC when you weigh the strength of arguments based in policy and guideline. -- GreenC 21:25, 6 December 2018 (UTC)
- Dear User:GreenC Yeah, it's pretty odd. I'll make sure to reference wikipedia policies next closure. Have a nice day. CarelessWombatLet's Talk! 21:29, 6 December 2018 (UTC)
- Hope you know what you are doing in regards to this topic! Most people do not. -- GreenC 21:52, 6 December 2018 (UTC)
- This was my first closure, I'm trying my best!! CarelessWombatLet's Talk! 22:08, 6 December 2018 (UTC)
- If you don't mind, would you revert and wait for a more experienced editor or admin to close? The nature of the topic is difficult, the RfC nom is an SPA, and the policy and guidelines raised in the RfC need to be addressed either by the other participants or the closer. -- GreenC 15:59, 7 December 2018 (UTC)
Rollback/Reviewer granted
[edit]Hello CarelessWombat. Your account has been granted the "rollbacker" and "pending changes reviewer" user rights. These user rights allow you to review other users' edits on pages protected by pending changes and quickly revert the edits of other users.
- Please keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:
- Rollback should never be used to edit war.
- Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
- Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback (even though you're not an admin).
- The list of articles awaiting review is located at Special:PendingChanges, while the list of articles that have pending changes protection enabled is located at Special:StablePages. You may find the following pages useful to review:
- Wikipedia:Reviewing pending changes, the guideline on reviewing.
- Wikipedia:Pending changes, the summary of the use of pending changes.
- Wikipedia:Protection policy#Pending changes protection, the policy determining which pages can be given pending changes protection by administrators.
Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of reviewer or rollback. If you no longer want either of these user rights, contact me and I'll remove it, alternatively you can leave a request on the administrators' noticeboard. Happy editing!

Antivandal Tools
[edit]Hi there, I saw your post on Swarm's page, In addition to Huggle, you can also try WP:Stiki that is another tool that uses a different algorithm. Who knows it might be more suitable to your liking. Thanks for your good work. cheers. --DBigXrayᗙ 17:02, 8 December 2018 (UTC)
- Hey, User:DBigXray. Thank you very much for your suggestion. I found that STiki was providing me with a much better queue. I'm going to try and see if there are any settings on Huggle that might be able to make it suit my uses better, and if not I will most likely use STiki full time. Thanks, again for your suggestions. CarelessWombatLet's Talk! 03:36, 9 December 2018 (UTC)
- On STiki, I believe you can change the Queue and decide which one works best. (Same with Huggle), Basic principle is Most blatant vandalism will be on top of the queue and will be shown first, as you make your way by processing the queue, the vandalism will be less obvious and more like good faith edits, which should not be reverted and left for page watchers who are better expert on the content to decide. Glad to hear that my comment helped you in some way. cheers. --DBigXrayᗙ 09:54, 9 December 2018 (UTC)
