Welcome to Wikipedia, SirPigwig! Thank you for your contributions. I am DatGoodDude342 and I have been editing Wikipedia for some time, so if you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. You can also check out Wikipedia:Questions or type {{help me}} at the bottom of this page. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes (~~~~); that will automatically produce your username and the date. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! DatGoodDude342 (talk) 16:34, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hello. Regarding the recent revert you made: you may already know about them, but you might find Wikipedia:Template messages/User talk namespace useful. After a revert, these can be placed on the user's talk page to let them know you considered their edit inappropriate, and also direct new users towards the sandbox. They can also be used to give a stern warning to a vandal when they've been previously warned. Thank you. startTerminal {haha wow talk page | startTerminal on irc} 21:07, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hey there. Thanks for removing nonconstructive edits from Wikipedia, but you're still not leaving notices for the users that actually make the edits. Once your Wikipedia account has existed for four days, it would probably be helpful for you to initiate the Twinkle gadget. You can do this via your Preferences. Once Twinkle is activated, you can revert nonconstructive edits and be able to leave an appropriate notice or warning on the user's talk page. It appears that all of your edits are the reversion of vandalism, so trust me, this will make your goal much easier. Until you're able to activate Twinkle, please use templates instead. If you have any questions about Twinkle, you can of course read about it, but you can certainly ask me if you desire to. So if you do, please let me know!

I second this. Please check out Wikipedia:Template messages/User talk namespace to find templates. SemiHypercube (talk) 16:19, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello SirPigwig

[edit]

I was browsing through my edit history and found my edit on your talk page awarding you a barnstar, around the time I started doing anti-vandalism work on Wikipedia. Aren't you active here anymore? Regards, JACKINTHEBOXTALK 15:53, 28 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately...

[edit]

Unfortunately, I stopped reverting vandalism on Wikipedia. My life has gotten quite busy, and I just don't really have the time anymore. This was brought to my attention by JACKINTHEBOX while I was reading some Wikipedia pages, so I have become but a simple Reader. So, because of this, I will no longer be actively reverting vandalism, and will only do so extremely sparingly. Sincerely, Pigwig (talk) 18:09, 8 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, I see. I am also currently very busy, having just completed by mock exams, and working on many IAs and TOK essay for IB. I also find that I have less time editing Wikipedia (which I would like to much more of), but would still find time sometimes during the weekend and holidays (my Christmas holidays are starting on Friday!) to do so. Good luck in real life! JACKINTHEBOXTALK 04:17, 9 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
