Rollback granted

 

Hi Clyde293. After reviewing your request, I have enabled rollback on your account. Please keep the following things in mind while using rollback:

  • Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle or RedWarn.
  • Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
  • Rollback should never be used to edit war.
  • If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
  • Use common sense.

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into trouble or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 14:24, 1 March 2023 (UTC)

@HJ Mitchell thank you!   (👋🗣✍️) 16:25, 1 March 2023 (UTC)

Illinois's 4th District changes

The changes I made were because the previous version of the article was no longer accurate. The district is now very different from how it looked last year and for a long time before that.71.198.214.101 (talk) 06:13, 2 March 2023 (UTC)

I think most of it should be deleted or moved to the history section or edited by someone else. It is clearly inaccurate. Just look at the picture of the district now. 71.198.214.101 (talk) 06:15, 2 March 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for Jack Smith image

A few hours ago, I was bemoaning the lack of a good freely licensed photo for Jack Smith (lawyer) and was going to try and find one, only to see one uploaded almost immediately after. Cheers on finding such a high-res public domain one! Bremps! 02:37, 29 April 2023 (UTC)

My pleasure!   (👋🗣✍️) 03:54, 29 April 2023 (UTC)

Your reversion to Timeline of the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020

Can you explain the reason behind your reversion behind Timeline of the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020? There is a discussion that had been taking place over an editor's behaviour at User talk:S201050066#Ontario on Timeline of COVID-19 pages. —Tenryuu 🐲 ( 💬 • 📝 ) 18:04, 30 April 2022 (UTC)

Hi. Sorry for the confusion, that was entirely unintentional. Shall I revert it back now? 21:08, 30 April 2022 (UTC)

ARBIPA sanctions alert

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

To opt out of receiving messages like this one, place {{Ds/aware}} on your user talk page and specify in the template the topic areas that you would like to opt out of alerts about. For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.
