[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Tom Scott (entertainer) has been reverted.
Your edit here to Tom Scott (entertainer) was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (https://twitter.com/tomscott/status/512239401691516928) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a blog, forum, free web hosting service, fansite, or similar site (see 'Links to avoid', #11), then please check the information on the external site thoroughly. Note that such sites should probably not be linked to if they contain information that is in violation of the creator's copyright (see Linking to copyrighted works), or they are not written by a recognised, reliable source. Linking to sites that you are involved with is also strongly discouraged (see conflict of interest).
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 12:48, 11 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom 2020 Elections voter message

[edit]
Hello! Voting in the 2020 Arbitration Committee elections is now open until 23:59 (UTC) on Monday, 7 December 2020. All eligible users are allowed to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve.

The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

Lucy Letby opening lines

[edit]

Thank you for reverting the editors who kept trying to change Letby to an “alleged” killer earlier. I’d appreciate any further help with this, not only since there are multiple editors trying to do this today but also as an RFC on the very wording was held and so should not be overridden. 78.25.235.4 (talk) 20:41, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey! No worries. I was just doing a bit of RC Patrolling and it didn't seem like a constructive edit. I'm not super familiar with the procedure for it as I haven't actually had to do it before, but if the page has had repeated disruptive edits and will likely continue to in the future then you could consider requesting the article be protected. You can find the protection policy at WP:PP and you can make the actual request for protection at WP:RFP. SI09 (talk) 21:04, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Warning Users

[edit]

Hi there,

Just so you know, it's necessary to warn users about their vandalism edits and such. You can see here for a bunch of templates you can use . Myrealnamm-alt (talk) 15:48, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Myrealnamm-alt:Hi, is that the case for IP users as well? Sorry, I didn't realise. SI09 (talk) 15:55, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That's OK, and yes, that's for IP Users as well. For IPs, it's good to add {{sharedipadvice}} to their talk page, right under the message.
However, you can try Twinkle (which is what I use) or Ultraviolet to revert vandalism easier and faster than manually using "undo". They can also give you a selection of which templates to use, which I really find helpful. Myrealnamm-alt (talk) 15:58, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you! SI09 (talk) 16:00, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, and, by the way, if you plan to manually revert vandalism using "undo" and manually warning users, you should substitute the Shared IP Advice by using {{subst:sharedipadvice}} instead. I strongly recommend Twinkle or Ultraviolet. Myrealnamm-alt (talk) 16:02, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
