Question:Need your help

Hi @Layah50 I saw that you revert alot of vandalism. Where do you find all that vandalism because I am struggling to get to any because it gets reverted before I get there or it is really hard to find. I am currently going through CVUA Lessons and I am in the monitoring period. Shadow345110 (talk) 20:03, 17 August 2023 (UTC)

Hello @Shadow345110,
I mostly use a web called AntiVandal and sometimes Redwarn to catch vandalism along with a user right called Rollback. However, these anti-vandal webs will likely take a while to get used to. (I've also struggled using these at first.)
However, I suggest you start off by patrolling the recent changes section. Here, you can use mine that I've used for a long time [1]
Note that the settings I've set in doesn't always catch potential vandalism. If a new edit pops up, you should look at it before reverting it.
Also, you can change the settings in the Active Filter. Its up to you.
And, you are an autoconfirmed user so you can use a gadget called Twinkle to revert vandalism!
Oh, and don't feel down about other editors reverting the vandalism before you could! It happens a lot.. Especially, there's an anti-vandalism bot called ClueBot NG. This bot detects bad words or bad faith edits and reverts it within milliseconds!)
(Even with the fast tools I'm using, I sometimes get beaten by other anti-vandalism users) Lol 🛧Layah50♪🛪 ( 話す? 一緒に飛ぼう!) 20:29, 17 August 2023 (UTC)
(talk page stalker) you can also monitor user creation log [2] where you can also post welcome messages for new users who have contributed or reverse vandalism. I use Twinkle as it's what I'm used to. Knitsey (talk) 20:33, 17 August 2023 (UTC)
Thank you both. Shadow345110 (talk) 20:38, 17 August 2023 (UTC)
@Shadow345110, Happy to help!
Feel free to ask if you have any more questions about fighting vandalism! 🛧Layah50♪🛪 ( 話す? 一緒に飛ぼう!) 20:40, 17 August 2023 (UTC)
Shadow345110@ With the new users log make sure you read the intro and read the policy. Sometimes, if it looks like a new user is acting in good faith then I combine the welcome message with the standard advice rather than a warning. I'm not sure if Redwarn has all the welcome templates? Layah50 will know about how that works. Knitsey (talk) 20:51, 17 August 2023 (UTC)
@Knitsey Dont worry! I have already read it a few months ago. But I am not able to use Redwarn I am not able to use any AntiVandal Gadget due to my device when I get a better device I will use the preferred Gadget for me. Shadow345110 (talk) 21:03, 17 August 2023 (UTC)
Ah OK, they are great tools for reporting to AIV, UAA and SPI. Hopefully when you change over you can use them as they do make life easier. Good luck! Knitsey (talk) 21:06, 17 August 2023 (UTC)
@Knitsey Thank you. As you can see if you look on my user page I have alot of struggles so I need the luck. I think I have been doing well so far though and I am slowly getting better. Shadow345110 (talk) 21:10, 17 August 2023 (UTC)
It took me a long while just to remember when to use curly brackets or square brackets and I STILL forget sometimes lol. Layah50 seems to be helping you which is great! Knitsey (talk) 21:17, 17 August 2023 (UTC)
@Knitsey Yeah Layah has helped me so much they helped me get my first draft accepted and they taught me how to put a table on articles they are helping me on my other drafts as well. You are more then welcome to contribute and help out as well if you like. I have over 50 drafts I would like to write so I have quite the handful. Layah has been very helpful and they have added quite alot to my drafts. Shadow345110 (talk) 21:28, 17 August 2023 (UTC)
50?! Wow, that's going to keep you busy. Knitsey (talk) 21:30, 17 August 2023 (UTC)
@Knitsey Yep but in my eyes it will be a huge help to Wikipedia. I just hope my mental health and disorders don't affect me too much and get in the way. Shadow345110 (talk) 21:39, 17 August 2023 (UTC)
It's always good to take a break if Wikipedia gets too much. It is supposed to be enjoyable to edit. It can be frustrating sometimes. Knitsey (talk) 21:59, 17 August 2023 (UTC)
@Knitsey Wikipedia is like my therapy it actually helps me think amd it distracts my brain I love editing on Wikipedia it is alot of fun. I actually have split personality Disorder and when I edit they dont come out as much. Interesting isn't it? Editing is like my coping strategy and it does help. But I do take breaks which is why I have not been as active recently since July. I prepare to be fully active again in September. Shadow345110 (talk) 22:14, 17 August 2023 (UTC)
It's good that you take breaks. It is a fabulous project. Knitsey (talk) 22:16, 17 August 2023 (UTC)

@Knitsey Do you know anything about Professional Wrestling? Shadow345110 (talk) 22:31, 17 August 2023 (UTC)

No I don't. I think the last time I watched wrestling was about 40 years ago. My grandad used to watch it. Knitsey (talk) 22:34, 17 August 2023 (UTC)
@Knitsey Sorry for the late replies I am going back and forth between the TeaHouse. Ok I asked that question because every single draft I would like to write is about Professional Wrestling so if that is just one topic think about how many articles are waiting to be written in loads of other topics. Layah50 said they don't know much about wrestling but they have been a huge help. I think it is because I have the sources we could use to add to the article which proves you don't need to know about something to edit it. Sorry this is a long reply.

Request

Hi @Layah50 have you still got the NPP right because if you do please can you review Kai Fujimura and see if it is appropriate for mainspace. Thanks a million. Shadow345110 (talk) 20:27, 18 August 2023 (UTC)

Hi @Shadow345110 and sorry for the late reply.
After looking at the draft, I'd love to make the draft official but for some reason, my NPP is bugged, I can't seem to accept it.. 🛧Layah50♪🛪 ( 話す? 一緒に飛ぼう!) 02:51, 19 August 2023 (UTC)
