Thanks! I plan to keep going... Huggums537 (talk) 19:05, 19 January 2021 (UTC)

Hi Huggums537! The thread you created at the archived because there was no discussion for a few days (usually at least two days, and sometimes four or more). You can still find the archived discussion here. If you have any additional questions that weren't answered then, please feel free to create a new thread . The archival was done by Lowercase sigmabot III, and this notification was delivered by Muninnbot, both talk ) 19:01, 5 February 2021 (UTC)

Hi Huggums537! I want to know how to place reason for deletion or moving of article or page.

K dileep chowdary, you can learn about deleting information at: Wikipedia:Content removal, and you can also learn about how to place the reason at: Help:Edit summary. Also, remember to always sign your talk page comments with four tildes: ~~~~, and that will leave your username along with the date for you. See: Wikipedia:Signatures. I hope this helps!

Hi Huggums537. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have temporarily enabled rollback on your account until 2021-03-21. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

• Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing
  Twinkle
  .
• Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of
  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 troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! — Newslinger talk 19:53, 21 February 2021 (UTC)

Hi Huggums537, let's do a one-month trial. Your counter-vandalism work generally looks fine, although there was a mistake in

WP:ROLLBACKUSE. When the permission is about to expire, please submit another request here to have it instated permanently. Keep up the good work. — Newslinger talk

Wikipedia:User pages Ownership and editing of user pages, and there it appears to be much more supportive of my edits: "Finally, a few specific notices and tags, if placed, may not be moved to a less visible subpage or deleted without discussion". So, the guidelines can obviously be easily misinterpreted by anyone, and you have to admit the "mistakes" are with the conflicting guidelines and policies rather than me, right? Because of this, would you mind to go ahead and give me the permanent rights now? Thank you for your consideration. Huggums537 (talk

Hi Huggums537, the sentence "Finally, a few specific notices and tags, if placed, may not be moved to a less visible subpage or deleted without discussion." refers specifically to the four bullet points listed in

maintenance templates from Wikipedia articles without resolving the problem that the template refers to", when the editor did not perform the claimed action. Because of this, I am declining your request to extend the duration of your permission and recommend that you exercise care when using rollback over the next month in preparation for a follow-up review. — Newslinger talk

Ok, Newslinger. I guess that makes sense. Thanks again for the rights! Huggums537 (talk) 10:37, 25 February 2021 (UTC)

Uh, wait a minute.

guideline you linked to, just to familiarize myself with it, and I saw that there actually is an exception (or what could be reasonably misinterpreted as an exception) there on the last bullet point; "For IP editors, templates and notes left to indicate other users share the same IP address.", and the edit you linked to that you said was more serious actually does contain notes on both templates concerning shared IP addresses. I don't know if I did the right thing or not. Maybe not. But, I think it's reasonable to conclude that with the way the guideline is written, it wouldn't be my fault if I did accidentally conclude that I did the right thing even if it wouldn't normally be considered as something ok to do. Does that make any sense? Considering this new information, would you be willing to go ahead and instate the permanent rollback rights? Thanks again for your consideration. Huggums537 (talk

That line refers to templates in

Wikilawyering is generally frowned upon in the Wikipedia community, and I am declining your request again. If you are still interested in rollback in a month, please request a review at Wikipedia:Requests for permissions/Rollback when your permission is about to expire. — Newslinger talk

assumptions about editors who are genuinely just trying to sort things out in good faith. I'll practice with the tool over the next month. Thanks again for the rights. Huggums537 (talk

) 12:07, 25 February 2021 (UTC)

No problem. If you have any suggestions for rephrasing the guidelines to make them clearer, please feel free to submit them to the respective talk pages (e.g. Wikipedia talk:Talk page guidelines). — Newslinger talk 19:56, 25 February 2021 (UTC)

Your nomination of this userbox for deletion was closed by a bot because it's not in templatespace. If you would still like to see this deleted, you should try

Yep, I knew it was closed, but thanks for the heads up. I no longer seek deletion, but the process has given me some ideas to toss around about how the userbox project could be more effectively regulating the userbox gallery. Huggums537 (talk) 22:09, 22 February 2021 (UTC)

I was actually glad the bot closed it since I had mentioned wanting to withdraw my nomination anyway... :) Huggums537 (talk) 22:31, 22 February 2021 (UTC)

... for what you said to Flyer22 --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:08, 25 February 2021 (UTC)

Thank you. Very kind, and thoughtful of you. Huggums537 (talk) 10:11, 25 February 2021 (UTC)
