That CSD you tagged...LOL. "it won't appear on any webpages"; that means its false! Some editors on here... But anyway, would you like me to archive your talk page for you? :) --Scythre^Talk_Contribs 16:50, 14 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

All done. Message me when you need some more :D --Scythre^Talk_Contribs 17:09, 14 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Blake-, and thanks for your interest in igloo; I probably now feel warm and fuzzy. Please read the following important info before continuing:

I'd like to take the time to remind you that igloo is in testing, and is wholly unfinished. Because of this, bugs may cause you to edit erratically or change the wrong thing, even if you pressed a button on a valid revert. This will result in angry users demanding to know why you have reverted their good change. You will need to apologise and fix it before continuing; if you can't handle this, please don't use the program. You will also need to regularly check your changes to ensure igloo is doing the right thing. If not, please let me know so I can fix it - this will help improve it for the future.

If you still wish to help test igloo, you will need to remember the following controls, as the igloo control system is incomplete at this time.

• When you are using igloo, it will inform you whether it believes an edit to be vandalism. The system for this is pretty complicated, and unfinished, but in part it relies on your assertions that an edit is, or is not, vandalism.
• When you revert an edit, you are asserting that it is bad, as well as reverting and warning. To do this, press Q on your keyboard while viewing a diff. The edit will be reverted, and the user will be warned. This will happen in the background as you go.
• When an edit is clearly not vandalism, you can skip to the next diff by pressing SPACEBAR - this will assert that the edit is good, and display the next diff.
• If you are unsure whether it is vandalism, and do not want to revert, press E to skip to the next diff without making an assertion.
• If you regularly make invalid assertions and revert good edits (and vice versa), igloo will automatically suspend your access to the tool.

igloo will list diffs at the left side of your screen. You can click a diff to display it, or press space/E to go to the top diff. These are listed in the likely order of vandalism; edits most likely to be vandalism are at the top, and those least likely are at the bottom. Edits that igloo believes are vandalism are highlighted red, and clean edits are green. Edits where igloo is unsure or neutral are highlighted in yellow.

If you now try to access igloo, you should find that your username is on the access list. If you have any questions, comments, bugs or suggestions, please let me know on my talk page. Thanks again! Ale_Jrb^talk 20:22, 28 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

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) 05:14, 20 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The article Keystone pricing has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Wikipedia is not a dictionary, this was transwikied to Wiktionary over a year ago.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

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, guidelines for use at WP:MINOR). 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 all users will still be able to manually mark their edits as being minor in the usual way.

For well-established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. 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) 21:08, 15 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Blake-. I am just letting you know that I deleted Tarun kataria, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, under a different criterion from the one you provided, which doesn't fit the page in question. Thank you. Salvio ^{Let's talk about it!} 19:57, 19 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Blake-; I'm dropping you this note because you've used the article feedback tool in the last month or so. On Thursday and Friday the tool will be down for a major deployment; it should be up by Saturday, failing anything going wrong, and by Monday if something does :). Thanks, Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 23:28, 13 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
