Welcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit that you made to the page List of PlayStation 1 games has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Please use the sandbox for testing any edits; if you believe the edit was constructive, please ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing for further information. Thank you. Boomshadow talk contribs 04:36, 5 February 2010 (UTC)
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'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer have them marked as minor by default.
For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you are familiar with the contents of WP:MINOR, and believe that it is still beneficial to the encyclopedia to have all your edits marked as such by default, then this discussion will give you the details you need to continue with this functionality indefinitely. 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) 18:47, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

To Canyq, for being diligent in fixing minor links across a veritable swathe of plant pages. Cheers, Casliber (talk · contribs) 04:58, 21 July 2011 (UTC) |
Some advice: we do not remove redirects from other capitalizations. Although our search function and Google will detect alternate forms, links from elsewhere will generally not do so. There's a template used to indicate the situation, to be placed on the redirect page: ((R from other capitalisation)) --see Wikipedia:Template messages/Redirect pages for the various templates in similar situations.

Hi there, my name's Peter Coombe and I'm a Wikimedia Community Fellow working on a project to improve Wikipedia's help system. At the moment I'm trying to learn more about how people use and find the current help pages. If you could help by filling out this brief survey about your experiences, I'd be very grateful. It should take less than 10 minutes, and your responses will not be tied to your username in any way.
Thank you for your time,

I can understand why you reverted the page. The reason for me moving it was that in the article List of Castlevania media there was some error with this game, the name of this game was being displayed out of the box. It took me half an hour to find that this problem was caused by the symbol "!!" since it is some command on Wikipedia like the brackets which redirect you to an article. For eg., if you put List of Castlevania media in brackets it will redirect you to an article. However what does !! do I do not know. Try editing Wai Wai world 2 in List of Castlevania media by putting one more ! with SOS! and you'll understand what I'm saying. However Ithere is another solution we can redirect the the new name of the article ie., the one that I've moved it to to the original name of the article since I'm not much on Wikipedia these days because of my college studies. Feel free to do it. I won't mind. Also if you can please report this error to somebody since I don't know the procedure. Thank you. KahnJohn27 (talk) 06:28, 26 December 2012 (UTC)
Hey the article list of most expensive films was recently vandalised by an ip adress. I think it would be better if it semi-locked in order to prevent further vandalim. I don't know how to do that so please help me. Thank you. KahnJohn27 (talk) 10:20, 27 January 2013 (UTC)
Hey, sorry about the misunderstanding for the release date for Mega Man 8. I had the wrong url within the fields inside the reference. Apparently, the press release was within a frame in that buzzbin section on Capcom's old website. I've corrected the address and re-added the release date as January 1997. ~ Hibana (talk) 02:40, 8 July 2013 (UTC)
Why have you removed the link for PES 2104 on Playstation 2? It is coming out on PS2, the link I posted proved it. I'am going to reinstate it wherever you like it or not. Benriggers (talk) 21:55, 18th September 2013 (UTC)
Hi, just wanted to mention that some pages where you have added much better footnotes for the subfamily name must have been missed in an earlier effort to remove subfamily names from species pages (leaving them on genus pages), which was done in order to facilitate maintenance. It was nice to see what you were doing, though! Best wishes, Sminthopsis84 (talk) 21:07, 29 November 2013 (UTC)

Hey Canyq,
Thanks for fixing Talk Pages incorrectly including "image-needed". Much appreciated. There are already too many of them. Gderrin (talk) 23:49, 3 January 2023 (UTC)
Thank you for working on this. The requested images of plants category isn't very useful when it's full of articles that already have images. I had done some work on this last year going reverse alphabetically (Z through U). You're showing good judgement in leaving the needs-image tag in place when the only image is of very low quality, as at Cirsium wrightii and Carex meyeriana.
Note that images used in stub templates make articles show up in the Image Checker tool. You should add any images used in stub templates to the black list; there is a link to the black list in main Image Checker page. I've just added a bunch of images to the black list. I've found a few more that I have left off the black list for now; I wanted to give you the opportunity to experience adding to the black list (that i, if you'd like to; if not, I'll add them in a day or so). Rubus conanicutensis has no image of the species, but does have ((Rubus-stub)) which calls the image "AD2009Aug13 Rubus 01.jpg" (just enter the name of the image without the quotation marks in the black list). Quercus cualensis has ((Quercus-stub)), which calls the image "Quercus robur.jpg". Plantdrew (talk) 17:55, 6 January 2023 (UTC)
