It's not vandlism. It's what Slash said on his twitter to confirm Myles Kennedy's presence on his solo album Slash & Friends. 88.15.69.96 (talk) 13:55, 6 November 2009 (UTC)

Blanking of article by its author[edit]
In this edit you used Huggle to warn Asaraullo05 (talk · contribs) not to blank pages. However, in this case the page blanked was an article which Asaraullo05 had created, and was tagged as a copyvio. In this situation it is considered acceptable for a user to blank the article, provided there is no substantial contribution from any other editor, and this is taken as an acceptance that the article can be deleted, per WP:CSD G7.

deletion Mm. Hello. Re the last entry on http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:193.60.94.65&redirect=no -- it wasn't a test, I was fixing spelling errors on the page... ~KatieL Ok thanks
Deleting tags[edit]
Fair enough, but even after I had added some content, people were deleting it and replacing it with the speedy deletion nomination. Ajna01 (talk) 22:38, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
- They was following the rules, if someone thinks it's not worth the page they can recomend it for deletion, its not meant to be rude towards the author. SimonD (talk) 22:40, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
Huggle[edit]
Please be careful with the use of Huggle. As clearly stated in WP:HG, it for dealing with WP:VAN. Reading the edit summary and checking the info provided should make it clear that the edit reverted here wasn't vandalism. • Rabo³ • 14:12, 7 November 2009 (UTC) I noticed that I had made the mistake, my bad SimonD (talk) 14:14, 7 November 2009 (UTC)
You are now a Reviewer[edit]
Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.
Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.
When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.
If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 18:02, 19 June 2010 (UTC)
Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference[edit]
Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.
On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being minor in the usual way.
For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. With the script in place, you can continue with this functionality indefinitely (its use is governed by WP:MINOR). If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.
Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 18:34, 15 March 2011 (UTC)
