What does 🔔 mean?

edit

It means: Please ping me if you would like a reply.

One easy way to do this is is to start your reply with {{Reply to|N8wilson}}. You must also sign your post using ~~~~ for this to work as intended. If you include these pieces across more than one edit (i.e. you need to click "Publish changes" twice or more) then I will not be notified and you'll need to check out the help for fixing pings.

If you want to use the same style to request that other editors ping you, open your preferences and add the following text to the end of your signature. You must also make sure the box is checked to treat your signature as wiki markup.

DYK for Preighter

edit

On 8 June 2021, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Preighter, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that one airline has flown more than 5,600 preighter flights, carrying cargo in place of passengers? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Preighter. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Preighter), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Nicely done

edit
 

I don't believe we've interacted before, but just wanted to say that this edit, restoring status quo against your own preference based on an ongoing discussion that hadn't reached consensus yet, is one of the marks of a really good editor. So, thanks for that, and it's worth singling out for recognition here. It's particularly valuable at articles like that one, which tends to generate more heat than light, sometimes. As far as including the link, or not, I don't actually care how that comes out, just trying to do right by the article and the guidelines, as are you, obviously. So even if at the surface we might "disagree" about some link at some article, actually we're in agreement about the more important underlying issues. I don't shy from controversial articles, but I don't get caught up in them, either, and I'd be happy to collaborate with you on that or any topic any time. Nice to "meet" you, and happy editing! Mathglot (talk) 18:19, 3 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for taking the time to leave this note Mathglot. I'd really like to encourage you to continue this practice wherever you see the opportunity. It can make a significant difference in the motivation of editors to contribute their time and energy working on WP. Thanks for not being shy. Keep doing that too. Ping me anytime. --N8wilson 🔔 18:46, 3 September 2022 (UTC)Reply
