Hello,
Per WP:BLP, we don't add information about trivial arrests without convictions to BLPs. Removing such tabloid newspaper style content is most certainly not vandalism. Vandalism has a very strict definition here and is a deliberate attempt to damage the encyclopedia. These were good faith edits not vandalism.You really want to add material about a fight between roommates about pizza to a BLP? Really? Make your case on the article's talk page, which I will be watching. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 03:43, 7 July 2013 (UTC)
Link rot
[edit]Please check for link rot before you tag an article with the template. Walter Görlitz (talk) 03:49, 6 September 2013 (UTC)
Random reversion bot
[edit]Good job reverting Grover's material out of the knockout game page! That is exactly what one of your two revisions accomplished. The other left in the stupid sentence in the last paragraph of the lead. Even better job ignoring that the page is anything but informative or neutral. Three thumbs up! 98.225.252.201 (talk) 20:25, 31 December 2013 (UTC)
Re: (User talk:ais523) Updating stub script
[edit]The script that you mention, User:Ais523/stubtagtab.js, is one I haven't looked at in years (and I'd mostly forgotten it existed until you linked it). Most people use the script I originally created at User:Ais523/stubtagtab2.js instead (which was adopted and maintained by another user, at User:MC10/stubtagtab.js; it seems that my version was updated via {{edit protected}}, I didn't update it myself). It looks like nobody's done the same for the "original" script.
I'm not really active at Wikipedia at the moment, and am not really up-to-date enough on scripting knowledge to fix it. I'd have no objection to someone else updating the script and using {{edit protected}} to replace it (or, if they were an admin, just putting in a script redirect; script redirects to non-admin namespaces are a security issue). Otherwise, I'll probably have a look at it next time I become active at Wikipedia, but that might not be for months or years (I tend to become active in bursts). --ais523 02:43, 20 December 2015 (UTC)

Appreciation
[edit]I appreciate your interest in editing the Signpost Humour article. Please feel free to make any changes that you feel are appropriate. Any edits that anyone else has made to the articles has improved the article, so you are invited, forever and beyond, to continue to check up on my sloppy writing.

Listen, I'm just flattered that you even read the humour article in the Signpost. If we were face-to-face I would shake your hand and give you a smiley cookie. Best Regards, Barbara (WVS) ✐ ✉ 16:35, 2 November 2017 (UTC) |
- Hi, Barbara (WVS). I cheated as I have a couple of user scripts installed that make those (possible) nitpick errors leap out at me when I read articles. I felt cheeky enough making the edits that I wanted to check with you and make sure that I did not make three steps ahead and two steps back. Thank you for the barnstar. I really appreciate it. PS: I learned a lot about Ralphs.

04:24, 3 November 2017 (UTC)- I would like to learn how to cheat! What script do you use? Best Regards, Barbara (WVS) ✐ ✉ 14:05, 3 November 2017 (UTC)
- Hi, Barbara (WVS). I use two user scripts, made by other editors. The first turns redirect links from blue to a light green (kinda hard to see), and the second turns disambiguation links to orange (very easy to see). Then, I can manually check them to see where they lead, and repoint them if or as necessary. Have you ever installed a user script? Let me figure out the easiest way to walk you through it, if you need some help. The process is simple and quick. I will be back in a jiffy. Cheers!

04:02, 4 November 2017 (UTC) - Hi, Barbara (WVS). Okay. My apologies. You are way ahead of me. I found the script for turning redirect links to light green. Copy all of this into your common.css page:

/* Makes redirect links appear green to me only */ .mw-redirect { color: #006633; } .mw-redirect:visited { color: #009900; } .mw-redirect:hover { color: #990000; } .mw-redirect:active { color: #990000; }
- I will poke around to find the other script or gadget. Cheers!

04:59, 4 November 2017 (UTC) - Hi, Barbara (WVS). Okay, turning disambiguation links to orange (only you will see this) is a gadget. Check out this tip of the day for the simple enablement. Have fun! Cheers!

- Hi, Barbara (WVS). I do not know if you have enabled the orange link thing yet in your preferences yet, but if you have, you can spot and fix an orange link in the Social justice article - it is right in the lead! Having fun! Cheers!
