Hi Riley, not sure if you remember me, but we've chatted a couple of times before. I'm reaching out to you to ask for your participation in a recent DRV I've submitted for Margo Rey article here. Please note, I am not asking that you back my position! I am simply seeking a truly unbiased opinion here and I've always known you to be fair. Thanks.

Hello, members of the Vandalism Studies Project! As some of us are quite new with the Vandalism Studies project, it would make sense for us to re-read some of the past studies, as well as studies outside the project. Please do so if you have a chance, just so we can get into the groove of things. We're planning on attempting to salvage the Obama study (or possibly simply convert it to a new Romney study), as well as hopefully begin our third study this November. If you have any ideas for Study 3, please suggest them! If you have any questions please post them on the project talk page. Thanks, and happy editing - we can't wait to begin working on the project! --Dan653 (talk) and Theopolisme :)

The fact was ... that the 1876 span across Cedar Creek (pictured) is the last surviving covered bridge in Wisconsin? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Covered Bridge (Cedarburg, Wisconsin). You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000.

Welcome back! Electric Catfish 18:06, 31 August 2012 (UTC) |
I think I need a second opinion from someone who also knows what's going on here. The user appears to not understand the experiential expectations for adminship or bureaucrat nominations. I don't really have a problem with them nominating themselves and finding that out for themselves. However, I've noticed the editor editing under an IP too (e.g. responding to your question here. Again, it's a new user, so I'm not necessarily concerned, because they might've forgotten to sign in. What bothers me is that they are clearly trying to use two accounts per this edit to support his own nomination when the user already expressed support under their own username. This kind of behavior is never OK, even if these RfA/RfB/whatever aren't going anywhere. I'm thinking a warning on their talk page is needed right now, and should this kind of socking continue, I think this needs to go to AN/I. What are your thoughts? I, Jethrobot drop me a line (note: not a bot!) 12:40, 1 September 2012 (UTC)

Thank you for all of your anti-vandalism work! Electric Catfish 15:53, 3 September 2012 (UTC) |
The revert you made on Qin Shi Huang was correct, you were very intuitive! It was vandalism, feel free to warn that person. And thank you for being diligent, that page gets a high level of vandalism so it's a good idea to keep an eye on it. Apart from the regular contributors, the random ones maybe vandals. -- RexRowan Talk 06:34, 4 September 2012 (UTC)
By the way, I am thinking about writing some templates that will stimulate the understanding between neurotypical and autistic editors. This idea came from my personal experience of using smiley faces, they help me add correct tone to my words otherwise I find difficult and sometimes misunderstood.
Would you like to help out on drafting a project idea here? [2] -- RexRowan Talk 15:56, 4 September 2012 (UTC)
Hi Riley. Since the discussion there was closed, I thought I'd reply to you here. The big problem with expecting editors to have rollback rights before becoming an instructor is that it excludes a number of good instructors. Anyone who doesn't want to use rollback, or has had it taken away for any reason in the past therefore cannot be an instructor. Rollback doesn't (or shouldn't) give any additional status, it's not required to revert vandalism and if you start using it as a requirement. I personally don't want rollback and if there was a way of getting rid of it as an admin, I would - I find the button more annoying than anything else. WormTT(talk) 07:53, 4 September 2012 (UTC)

Hi, Thanks for your help in reference to my AWB request. Having had a check, unfortunately, it seems that not all of the links have been changed. I am assuming this is because a lot of pages don't refer directly to its old name, Doctors (2000 TV series), and use something like Doctors. Would you be able to do another run for this specific term, which should clear a lot? I will then have to look again to see what is left. If you don't have time, no problems - I only need a few more edits before I can get AWB myself. Thanks for your help, which is much appreciated. Adamiow (talk) 18:18, 5 September 2012 (UTC)

Hi Riley. I think it's best to ley me decide where I post things, and if I'm procedurally wrong, I'm sure my admin colleagues wilol tell me, so I'll handle my part of this the way I think best.

More than enough has been said on tje ANI, several admins concur, and it could have been closed when I suggested it should. It just remains now to see if the advice will be taken. Thanks.

Hey all :). We've just deployed another set of features for Page Curation. They include flyouts from the icons in Special:NewPagesFeed, showing who reviewed an article and when, a listing of this in the "info" flyout, and a general re-jigging of the info flyout - we've also fixed the weird bug with page_titles_having_underscores_instead_of_spaces in messages sent to talkpages, and introduced CSD logging! As always, these features will need some work - but any feedback would be most welcome. Thanks! Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 18:19, 10 September 2012 (UTC)

Hi, just letting you know that I completed all six of your file renaming requests. All requests were completely valid, and you seem decently experienced in the file namespace. May I recommend that you request file-mover rights, because you know what you're doing and it would take the tedious work off of other file-movers' shoulders, if you moved the files yourself.

I have a question, since you've been on Wikipedia a really long time. If somebody has complete autocratic rule over a Wikiproject... is there a way to even report that. This person that I'm talking about; yeah he keeps those articles in line, but at what cost. It seems like no one can make any edits that don't meet with his personal approval. I don't see how that can be allowed, but it seems like he's gotten away with it for some time now. Please let me know. Thanks. I'm going to sleep right now on this side of the world (I'm not sure where you're from), so don't expect an immediate response to your response. Thanks, again.

I did some work with Kate Forster but didn't end up finding much in the way of references. After all that I noticed that the author removed your CSD template (!). So feel free to replace the template if you still find it speediable and don't worry about my additions. An article with the same title was deleted 2 years ago as well.

Hi Riley Huntley. I'm leaving you this message because you have previously been involved as an adopter with Wikipedia's Adopt-a-user program. A clean-up of this program is currently underway, and as part of the process I am trying to find out who is and isn't still interested in remaining an adopter.
If you would prefer not to be part of the adoption program anymore, you need do nothing; when the overhaul of the project is completed your name will be removed from the list of active adopters. However, if you have current adoptees, an active adoption school or an interest in adopting in the near future, then please let us know by signing here.
If you want to remain in the project and can currently take on more adoptees, there is a serious backlog at Category:Wikipedians seeking to be adopted in Adopt-a-user; it would be enormously helpful if you could take on one or two of the users there. Please do keep an eye on the project for upcoming changes, we could use your opinions and your help! Yunshui 雲水 09:17, 19 September 2012 (UTC)

Riley, I cannot thank you enough for starting the uw-attempt series of templates. I've always wanted to, but I'm nearly clueless about templates (besides DYK). I've always thought that the standard ((uw-attempt)) was too bitey and was really a level 3 warning. Thank You! Electric Catfish2 21:09, 19 September 2012 (UTC) |
Hi there. ome serious suggestions for a total overhaul are now being made. In anticipation of the possible implementation of these changes, some things that could immediately help reduce the bureaucracy, would be to reduce the banter and the use of 'clerking' style micro templates. I have proposed one solution that puts the entire CVU 'school' on one single page, placing responsibility for project management squarely at the hands of the 'active' trainers themselves, obviating any forms of secondary discussion. An updated draft is available at here. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 02:01, 20 September 2012 (UTC)

Hi ~riley. I'm leaving you this message because you have previously been involved with Counter-Vandalism, and may still be. The Academy project has been restructured, placing responsibility for it on the trainers themselves and as part of the process I am trying to find out who is still interested in remaining as active trainers.
In future, there will be no clerking or coordination, so If you are still active and can respond to requests from students within around 48 hours, you need do nothing until a new student contacts you on your talk page. Nevertheless, if your status changes, please update your entry on the table of active trainers at the new WP:CVUA page. If you no longer have sufficient time to commit to the CV training project, that's fine, but please remove your name from the active list. While on your travels however, should you come across users who are having a hard time with their reverts, don't hesitate to send them a link to the CVUA. Thanks, and happy editing!

A tag has been placed on File:IMG 0180.JPG requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F2 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an image page for a missing or corrupt image or an empty image description page for a Commons-hosted image.
If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Hello, my friend. I pillaged the images at User:Riley Huntley/Pastebin and added them to Wikipedia:Requested articles/Images. I hope you don't mind. I've asked before if I can pinch a few, and you said yes. I actually grabbed them all. I figured that you can zap the ones from Wikipedia:Requested articles/Images that you want to retain. It's just easier to do them en masse. Also, it will take a long time for users to turn those links blue.

Cavendish bananas are in fact eaten raw; they are the most common type of bananas found in American supermarkets, and the most common use for them is to be eaten raw. The previous text made it seem they were only used in dishes when they are most commonly eaten raw by themselves. 76.231.150.69 (talk) 01:39, 6 October 2012 (UTC)
I would also admonish you to use a little common sense - saying that cavendish bananas are eaten raw is certainly not vandalism by any stretch of the imagination. I think you might be a little too hasty to revert an edit just because it comes from an unregistered user - remember that IPs are human, too and some of us are also experienced users who, from one reason or another, don't bother to log in anymore. Remember that 80% of edits made by IPs are legitimate edits the next time you are tempted to push the undo button just because the person who made the edit is an IP. 76.231.150.69 (talk) 01:54, 6 October 2012 (UTC)

Do you still use EdiPad? You can make a baby macro to get rid of those underscores on the spot. Call it ctrl-_ and make the macro simply replace _ with a space.

I know you requested the logo for your wikivessels proposal, but as that proposal is not going anywhere in its current iteration, would you be opposed to my putting forth a variant of said logo as a possibility for use for the travel guide, as it seems it would fit for that?

Hey all :).
We're (very shortly) closing down this development cycle for Page Curation. It's genuinely been a pleasure to talk with you all and build software that is so close to my own heart, and also so effective. The current backlog is 9 days, and I've never seen it that low before.
However! Closing up shop does not mean not making any improvements. First-off, this is your last chance to give us a poke about unresolved bugs or report new ones on the talkpage. If something's going wrong, we want to know about it :). Second, we'll hopefully be taking another pass over the software next year. If you've got ideas for features Page Curation doesn't currently have, stick them here.
Again, it's been an honour. Thanks :). Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 12:23, 17 October 2012 (UTC)

Hi Riley. Just a truly friendly reminder that 'to do' or 'not to do' is an admin decision. Clerking these pages is unnecessary and if it really is, then please see this documentation - we don't want to impart the wrong impression. That applies even more so when handling ACC, a right which requires even more qualifications than adminship itself. Otherwise, do keep up the good work, and as you know, I'm always on hand for any help and advice :) 00:29, 27 October 2012 (UTC)Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk)

You had edited the Novel American article and bluelinked the name Tyler Ward. I wanted to clarify for you that this is the wrong Tyler Ward. I actually made the same mistake the first time I started following Novel American. The Tyler Ward who played drums for NA is not the Tyler Ward famous for his YouTube cover. NA's Tyler Ward came from Cecil Adora with Van Beasley and is a different person just with the same name. On Twitter, the Tyler Ward that has the Wiki page is @TylerWardMusic and NA's old Tyler Ward is @TylerWardIs. I've also asked Josh Farro to re-verify this and I'll let you know if he gets back to me. Thanks for your time!
Riley, I look forward to your apology. Will you look at User:Don'tletthepigeonfan, deleted by JohnCD as a copyright violation? That's the page I reported as a copyright violation, and you went on to claim that I was a vandal of some sort. You are welcome to look at my other contributions, on TheFilmSchool and on Woking High School, and I'll serve you your crow any way you like. Seriously: you placed a vandal-3 template on my talk page, and I want that gone and replaced with an apology. Thanks! 66.168.247.159 (talk) 21:27, 1 November 2012 (UTC)
I left you this message in good faith, as an opportunity for you to improve yourself. Now, you won't retract the vandalism templates you left on my talk page, and I don't see an apology yet, so I'll just leave you an expletive there in response. Be careful not to use rollback incorrectly when you're following me around. All the best, Riley Huntley. 66.168.247.159 (talk) 21:55, 1 November 2012 (UTC)

Anyway. You're getting this note because you've participated in discussion and/or asked for updates to either the Article Feedback Tool or Page Curation. This isn't about either of those things, I'm afraid ;p. We've recently started working on yet another project: Echo, a notifications system to augment the watchlist. There's not much information at the moment, because we're still working out the scope and the concepts, but if you're interested in further updates you can sign up here.
In addition, we'll be holding an office hours session at 21:00 UTC on Wednesday, 14 November in #wikimedia-office - hope to see you all there :). I appreciate it's an annoying time for non-Europeans: if you're interested in chatting about the project but can't make it, give me a shout and I can set up another session if there's enough interest in one particular timezone or a skype call if there isn't.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Aleksandar Simov, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Serbian (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hey all :). A couple of quick updates (one small, one large)
First, we're continuing to work on some ways to increase the quality of feedback and make it easier to eliminate and deal with non-useful feedback: hopefully I'll have more news for you on this soon :).
Second, we're looking at ways to increase the actual number of users patrolling and take off some of the workload from you lot. Part of this is increasing the prominence of the feedback page, which we're going to try to do with a link at the top of each article to the relevant page. This should be deployed on Tuesday (touch wood!) and we'll be closely monitoring what happens. Let me know if you have any questions or issues :). Thanks, Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 14:35, 16 November 2012 (UTC)
It's a little unusual to relist articles three times, especially blps. If there are two deletes plus the nominator & no plausible keeps, that's normally enough discussion. In the past, we used to delete if there was even one + the nominator, but if that's the case, it might make more sense to give an opinion. I will probably close a few on the more obvious ones as delete or in the other direction as no consensus, since there is no rule how long something has to stay after a relisting, though for a first relisting, we usually give another 7 days.

Hi Riley
Concerning your reversal of my edit: I left a note on the discussion page, but failed to refer to it on the edit summary. I propose that CTC be deleted, but it takes me too long to find out about the process, so I was asking that someone with more experience take it up. It makes no sense ro point "CTC" to "employment", where there is not a single mention of it. Therefore, anyone wnating to know what CTC is, will walk away as ignorant as before and annoyed to boot.

Hi Riley. Can you please revert your closure of this AfD and let an admin to do perform the closure. Nomination itself is a delete vote and so there exist one delete vote with no support whatsoever for keeping the article.

To follow up on the first survey in April, I am conducting a second survey to learn more about dispute resolution volunteers - their motivations for resolving disputes, the experiences they've had, and their ideas for the future. I would appreciate your thoughts. I hope that with the results of this survey, we will learn how to increase the amount of active, engaged volunteers, and further improve dispute resolution processes. The survey takes around five to ten minutes, and the information you provide will not be shared with third parties other than to assist in analyzing the results of the survey. No personally identifiable information will be released. Please click HERE to participate. You are receiving this invitation because you have either listed yourself as a volunteer at a dispute resolution forum, or are a member of a dispute resolution committee.

This dormant wiki has a total language community of about 2000 native speakers (mostly computer-illeterate seniors, I live in a nearby region) and an interwiki linked terminologic glossary they managed to create is an important tool I would rather see kept.

Hello. Regarding the recent revert you made: you may already know about them, but you might find Wikipedia:Template messages/User talk namespace useful. After a revert, these can be placed on the user's talk page to let them know you considered their edit inappropriate, and also direct new users towards the sandbox. They can also be used to give a stern warning to a vandal when they've been previously warned. Thank you. Eagles 24/7 (C) 20:40, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
Sorry if you're inconvenienced by the rangeblock on 92.24.104.0/22. You don't need to be told that it's perfectly legitimate for an editor to deregister and edit as an IP, especially when the username is unsuitable. Unfortunately, Sunshine has unorthodox ideas on the use of the toolkit - for example he has protected the reference desk for three months although a hundred editors and administrators have told him not to and nobody supports the move. In January he narrowly escaped a de - sysop for abuse.
It might be worth making an unblock request at ANI - there are many sympathetic administrators there. All the best, 78.145.18.154 (talk) 10:14, 1 March 2016 (UTC)

You are receiving this message because you have listed yourself on the list of volunteers at Wikipedia:Dispute resolution noticeboard/Volunteering#List of the DRN volunteers.
First, assistance is needed at DRN. We have recently closed a number of cases without any services being provided for lack of a volunteer willing to take the case. There are at least three cases awaiting a volunteer at this moment. Please consider taking one.
Second, this is a volunteer roll call. If you remain interested in helping at DRN and are willing to actively do so by taking at least one case (and seeing it through) or helping with administrative matters at least once per calendar month, please add your name to this roll call list. Individuals currently on the principal volunteer list who do not add their name on the roll call list will be removed from the principal volunteer list after June 30, 2016 unless the DRN Coordinator chooses to retain their name for the best interest of DRN or the encyclopedia. Individuals whose names are removed after June 30, 2016, should feel free to re-add their names to the principal volunteer list, but are respectfully requested not to do so unless they are willing to take part at DRN at least one time per month as noted above. No one is going to be monitoring to see if you live up to that commitment, but we respectfully ask that you either live up to it or remove your name from the principal volunteer list.

This user told me to contact on the user talk page, so here's the official request. On 31 March 2016, Magioladitis protected User talk:Riley Huntley with "Move=Require autoconfirmed or confirmed access" because of page move vandalism, but that protection level was wrong. The protection level of both that page and this page should instead be "Move=Require administrator access". The message was removed from User talk:Magioladitis and the WP:RFPP request was declined.

Hi ~riley, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the "autopatrolled" permission to your account, as you have created numerous, valid articles. This feature will have no effect on your editing, and is simply intended to reduce the workload on new page patrollers. For more information on the patroller right, see Wikipedia:Autopatrolled. Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. Happy editing! — xaosflux Talk 04:50, 15 May 2016 (UTC)

One of our first tasks is to write the job description of the executive director position, and we are asking for input from the Wikimedia community. Please take a few minutes and complete this survey to help us better understand community and staff expectations for the Wikimedia Foundation Executive Director.

Hi ~riley,
As an AfC reviewer you're probably aware that a new user right has been created for patrolling new pages (you might even have been granted the right already, and admins have it automatically).
Since July there has been a very serious backlog at Special:NewPagesFeed of over 14,000 pages, by far the worst since 2011, and we need an all out drive to get this back down to just a few hundred that can be easily maintained in the future. Unlike AfC, these pages are already in mainspace, and the thought of what might be there is quite scary. There are also many good faith article creators who need a simple, gentle push to the Tea House or their pages converted to Draft rather than being deleted.
Although New Page Reviewing can occasionally be somewhat more challenging than AfC, the criteria for obtaining the right are roughly the same. The Page Curation tool is even easier to use than the Helper Script, so it's likely that most AfC reviewers already have more than enough knowledge for the task of New Page Review.
It is hoped that AfC reviewers will apply for this right at WP:PERM and lend a hand. You'll need to have read the page at WP:NPR and the new tutorial.

Hello, I'm BrownHairedGirl. I wanted to let you know that I've blanked one of your drafts (User:~riley/ACC sandbox) due to your inactivity. If you decide to come back and start editing again, don't fret as the previous contents of the article are still available in the page history. Just click the "Undo" button next to my edit and everything will be back to like it was. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me on my talk page.
