30px|left|alt=Stop icon ↗ Your recent editing history at :Malcolm X ↗ shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war ↗. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page ↗ to work toward making a version that represents consensus ↗ among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD ↗ for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard ↗ or seek dispute resolution ↗. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection ↗.

'''Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing ↗'''—especially if you violate the three-revert rule ↗, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts ↗ on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—'''even if you don't violate the three-revert rule'''—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Hi!

I'm afraid I was a bit curt in my dealings with your over at Malcolm X ↗. It's tempting to want to use every interesting fact or impressive quotation from a new source, but at the same time an article can be quickly overwhelmed. I've tried to trim it back to the central points. '''<span style="color:red;">E</span><span style="color:blue;">Eng</span>''' 19:08, 11 November 2017 (UTC)

:Hi, Yes you were, but I appreciate you reaching out to me. I mean no malice and I realize as a detail-oriented person that I may have added overwhelming info. I see the edit you did and I agree with a trim, but I think it's important to add Malcolm's Effect on Ali, and that he said he may not have become a Muslim if it wasn't for Malcolm. Also, the Liston fight which Ali invited Malcolm to is a big event and is info most people probably don't know. I've added those 2 points. Please don't remove them, I think that would be a fair compromise. Twixister (talk) 04:25, 12 November 2017 (UTC)

::Twixister, you have a lot to learn about Wikipedia, and you may be jumping in over your head. Your citations are a mess (I've had to clean massive amounts of trash code from them every time you edit), and beyond that they are in the wrong format, as you can clearly see. When quoting a work that is used more than once in the article, you should be using the format that is common to article -- please look at the References section. Please also learn to indent your talkpage posts with colons (as I have done here) to correctly nest your reply under the post you are replying to. And please always sign your talkpage posts by typing four tildes, and preview your post before saving to make sure that you have done so. If you are indeed a "detail-oriented person", then you need to demonstrate that by learning how to use Wikipedia correctly and by the precision with which you edit Wikipedia. The Wikipedia Adventure (above) will help you, and teach you all the things that we really don't have time to relate. You need to also demonstrate collaborativeness in interacting with others. Please get consensus ↗ for your edits on the article's talkpage before continuing to replace them. Thank you. Softlavender (talk) 03:17, 12 November 2017 (UTC)

:::Softlavender, My apologies. Thank you, will do! Twixister (talk) 04:25, 12 November 2017 (UTC)

Malcolm X ↗

Hello, Twixister, and welcome to Wikipedia. (I know you registered a few years ago, but almost all of your edits have been made in the past few weeks.) I appreciate the material you have added to Malcolm X ↗, but please keep in mind that Wikipedia is a collaboratory effort ↗. We have very strict rules against edit-warring ↗ (repeatedly adding the same material after it's been removed). I understand your enthusiasm, but you need to discuss your proposed changes at Talk:Malcolm X ↗ and try to build consensus ↗ for them. Also, keep in mind that an encyclopedia article cannot include all verifiable information on a subject, and it is your responsibility to build consensus to include material that has been disputed ↗.

Malcolm X ↗ is one of about 5,000 "featured articles" ↗ on Wikipedia considered to be among its best, and we expect new content to be consistent with the high quality of existing content. For example, citing web sources may be acceptable on 99% of Wikipedia, but whenever possible, we expect editors to cite published books as sources for featured articles. We expect new footnotes to be consistent with the format already in use for the 300+ footnotes in the article. And we expect editors to discuss their proposed changes when they run into resistance from other editors.

Thank you. — Malik Shabazz <sup>Talk</sup>/<sub>Stalk ↗</sub> 03:31, 12 November 2017 (UTC)
:Hi, I added my proposed changes on Talk:Malcolm X ↗. Twixister (talk) 04:20, 12 November 2017 (UTC)

Hello again, Twixister. Please make sure you keep your signature on the same line as your post. If you remember to always preview your posts and your edits before you save them, this is easy to do. I have fixed this for you on this thread and on the thread above. Softlavender (talk) 04:38, 12 November 2017 (UTC)

Martha Nell Bullock

Thanks for your edits at Tina Turner ↗. However, this has been discussed previously and the consensus then was that the change should ''not'' be made, because you are basing the claim on primary sources and because most reliable published sources give her birth name as Anna Mae. Personally, I suspect you may be correct.... but, it needs to be discussed further on the talk page and I will revert your edit until we have this discussion with other editors.

Speedy deletion ↗ nomination of :Bolic Sound ↗

A tag has been placed on :Bolic Sound ↗ requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion ↗, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion ↗, such as at Articles for deletion ↗. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may '''contest the nomination''' by visiting the page ↗ and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines ↗. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the {{Querylink|Special:Log|qs=type=delete&page=Bolic+Sound|deleting administrator}}, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here ↗.  --<span style="background:Black;padding:1px 5px;"><b style="color: White;">Nahal</b></span><sup>(T) ↗</sup> 07:36, 13 July 2019 (UTC)

Thanks for your edits and references. However, she was surely known primarily as a songwriter, rather than as a singer - so why change the infobox? And, I question the use of the term "singer-songwriter ↗", which is a term that really didn't exist before the 1960s and usually refers to a particular style of music which is quite different to that in which McCoy worked.

:My reasoning is that she was a singer and songwriter, hence singer-songwriter by definition. I changed her infobox to solo artist simply because she released more than one single as a solo artist. She continued to record well after her heyday of songwriting, but I understand your point of view. It can sometimes be tricky because not all singer-songwriters have a particular style. Mariah Carey is a well-known singer-songwriter, but she doesn't play an instrument. Now looking at her page I can see the distinction between saying "singer and songwriter" vs. "singer-songwriter" in the infobox and in the lede, even though she fits into the categories that are about singer-songwriters.Twixister (talk) 01:34, 22 February 2020 (UTC)

Better source request for :File:Ike-Tina-Turner-Live.jpg ↗

Thanks for your upload to Wikipedia:

:File:Ike-Tina-Turner-Live.jpg ↗

You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the copyright ↗ status of the image because the source is incomplete or generic . Please consider clarifying the ''exact'' source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact source (such as web page, or printed document) where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain, search engine, pinboard, aggregator, or the URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following <span class="plainlinks">[{{fullurl:Special:Log|type=upload&user={{BASEPAGENAMEE}}}} this link]</span>. If you have any questions please ask them at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions ↗. Thank you.  — JJMC89 <small>(T'''·'''C ↗)</small> 00:24, 23 March 2020 (UTC)

Non-free rationale for File:Sallie-Blair-Squeeze-Me.jpg

64px|left|alt=|link= ↗
Thanks for uploading or contributing to ''':File:Sallie-Blair-Squeeze-Me.jpg ↗'''. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria ↗, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page ↗, and edit it to include a non-free rationale ↗.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions ↗" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F6 of the criteria for speedy deletion ↗. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion ↗ and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page ↗. Thank you. — JJMC89 <small>(T'''·'''C ↗)</small> 00:53, 23 March 2020 (UTC)

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Sallie-Blair-Squeeze-Me.jpg

64px|left|alt=|link= ↗
Thank you for uploading ''':File:Sallie-Blair-Squeeze-Me.jpg ↗'''. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content ↗. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline ↗ is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag ↗; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion ↗. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page ↗. Thank you.

Suzanne Mallouk's wikipedia page

Hi, I'm in direct contact with Suzanne about some inaccuracies in her bio, but you
have been reverting those changes. Is she not considered a sufficient source for
this info?

Suzanne Mallouk stated in the book Widow Basquiat that she was dating Michael Stewart at the time of his death. There are multiple cited sources to confirm this.

Recent edit reversion

In this edit here ↗, I reverted some information that appears to be a violation of our copyright policy ↗.

I provided a brief summary of the problem in the edit summary, which should be visible just below my name. You can also click on the "view history" tab in the article to see the recent history of the article. This should be an edit with my name, and a parenthetical comment explaining why your edit was reverted. If that information is not sufficient to explain the situation, please ask.

I do occasionally make mistakes. We get hundreds of reports of potential copyright violations every week, and sometimes there are false positives, for a variety of reasons. (Perhaps the material was moved from another Wikipedia article, or the material was properly licensed but the license information was not obvious, or the material is in the public domain but I didn't realize it was public domain, and there can be other situations generating a report to our Copy Patrol tool that turn out not to be actual copyright violations.)

Replaceable non-free use File:Sly-The-Family-Stone-I-Want-To-Take-You-Higher.jpg

32px|left ↗
Thanks for uploading ''':File:Sly-The-Family-Stone-I-Want-To-Take-You-Higher.jpg ↗'''. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of non-free use ↗. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion ↗. This criterion states that files used under claims of non-free use may have ''no free equivalent''; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

# Go to the file description page ↗ and add the text {{Tlx|Di-replaceable non-free use disputed|<your reason>}} '''below''' the original replaceable non-free use template, replacing <code><your reason></code> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
# On the file discussion page ↗, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license ↗, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on <span class="plainlinks">[{{fullurl:Special:Contributions|target=Twixister&namespace=6}} this link]</span>.

File copyright problem with File:Basquiat-leonardo-da-vincis-greatest-hits-1982.jpg

64px|left|alt=|link= ↗
Thank you for uploading :File:Basquiat-leonardo-da-vincis-greatest-hits-1982.jpg ↗. However, it is currently missing information on its '''copyright''' and '''licensing''' status. Wikipedia takes copyright ↗ very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can verify that it has an acceptable license status and a verifiable source. Please add this information by editing the image description page ↗. You may refer to the '''image use policy ↗''' to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. The page on '''copyright tags ↗''' may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion ↗ and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please also check any other files you may have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads ↗.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page ↗. Thanks again for your cooperation.

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Self-Portrait as a Heel (Part Two).jpg

64px|left|alt=|link= ↗
Thank you for uploading ''':File:Self-Portrait as a Heel (Part Two).jpg ↗'''. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content ↗. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline ↗ is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag ↗; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion ↗. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page ↗. Thank you.

Your contribution to Salvador Dali

Hello there

I reverted your edit because if we mention every work Dali did in his career the article would be nothing but a list of works. None of the major scholarly monographs on Dali mention this work and it is not considered one of his major or notable ones. The wikipedia policy on undue weight given to minor aspects of the subject applied here. Wikipedia:UNDUE ↗

As for his election to the Academia Real de Bellas Artes in 1973, do you have a better source for that? As far as I can see, the link you provided doesn't say this.

Keep On Keeping On (Travie McCoy song) ↗

Hey there. This is just a notice that the user Nature Moon has blank-and-redirected ↗ the page for "Keep On Keeping On" which you created. While they didn't give a reason for it, I do concur with it on the grounds of WP:NSONG ↗; aside from this MTV News article ↗, I have failed to find significant coverage about this song, and thus it doesn't seem like a standalone page is appropriate (as there doesn't appear to be enough information to "warrant a reasonably detail article" about the track). If you do find more sources, however, or disagree with this BLAR, then by all means feel free to recover the page from its history. Leafy46 (talk) 03:05, 26 September 2025 (UTC)

:It is quite logical that, according to the criteria of WP:NSONG ↗, this song doesn't need a standalone article because it isn't significant enough and hasn't made it into the music charts.

This criterion states that files used under claims of non-free use may have ''no free equivalent''; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

# Go to the file description page ↗ and add the text {{Tlx|Di-replaceable non-free use disputed|<your reason>}} '''below''' the original replaceable non-free use template, replacing <code><your reason></code> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
# On the file's talk page ↗, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license ↗, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on <span class="plainlinks">[{{fullurl:Special:Contributions|target=Twixister&namespace=6}} this link]</span>. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy ↗. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page ↗. Thank you.  -- Marchjuly (talk) 13:41, 29 April 2026 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Campbell's Soup Cans/archive4 ↗

Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Campbell's Soup Cans/archive4 ↗ is under way and we have a very high-level reviewer. I am busy this morning and may have some time to jump into addressing this, but we have a really attentive and expert first discussant to respond to. Hope you will be up for this challenge.-TonyTheTiger <small>(T / C ↗ / WP:FOUR ↗ / WP:CHICAGO ↗ / WP:WAWARD ↗)</small> 12:31, 26 May 2026 (UTC)

Thx for stepping in where I needed help. Given your recent intimacy with the text, many of the other points would be better handled by you.-TonyTheTiger <small>(T / C ↗ / WP:FOUR ↗ / WP:CHICAGO ↗ / WP:WAWARD ↗)</small> 04:22, 27 May 2026 (UTC)

*I am going to need a lot more help getting this promoted. Did you see the 2nd round of issues.-TonyTheTiger <small>(T / C ↗ / WP:FOUR ↗ / WP:CHICAGO ↗ / WP:WAWARD ↗)</small> 07:06, 30 May 2026 (UTC)

**We all have our own interests, but you have shown that Campbell's Soup Cans ↗ is a mutual interest. Ever since the Feb revamp, I have been worried about the presentation of details in the article. Now, we have a very diligent and detail-oriented reviewer who has taken a lot of time to look closely at the subject. You seem to have access to all kinds of Warhol resources. I don't have all the Warhol books. So I was relying on you to address issues related to details in the sources. I can see you have been editing Warhol quite a bit for the last 4 days, but CSC has not gotten any attention. I appreciate how hard you are working on the whole broad subject of Warhol. FAC reviewers don't like to be ignored and there is lots of constructive feedback for us to make this a better resource if we can work with these discussants. So if you have time, please jump back in.-TonyTheTiger <small>(T / C ↗ / WP:FOUR ↗ / WP:CHICAGO ↗ / WP:WAWARD ↗)</small> 07:23, 1 June 2026 (UTC)

**Also I am interested on whether you are able to source specific details regarding the display of the work. I believe that Ferus may have been an alphabetical presentation, National Gallery was alphabetical and MoMA is historical order of introduction. Can you source these facts?-TonyTheTiger <small>(T / C ↗ / WP:FOUR ↗ / WP:CHICAGO ↗ / WP:WAWARD ↗)</small> 07:23, 1 June 2026 (UTC)

**:Hi, I've been focused on a few other Warhol-related articles recently, but I'll take a look at Campbell's Soup Cans shortly. I'll also check my sources to see if I can find anything on the display order at Ferus, the National Gallery, and MoMA. Twixister (talk) 20:40, 1 June 2026 (UTC)

***Note that the current MOMA source has been decapitated. Only the archived version discusses the historical order presentation.-TonyTheTiger <small>(T / C ↗ / WP:FOUR ↗ / WP:CHICAGO ↗ / WP:WAWARD ↗)</small> 23:44, 2 June 2026 (UTC)

***:The article already states that "The MoMA has displayed them in various configurations, often as a grid arranged by the historical introduction dates of the soup flavors." That statement is currently supported by two sources (the New York Times and MoMA) and I have added a third source from Artnet. I have not come across any sources confirming that the presentations at the Ferus Gallery or the National Gallery were arranged alphabetically, so I do not think that claim should be stated as fact without a source. Twixister (talk) 09:04, 3 June 2026 (UTC)

***::It seems you found a source for the National Gallery. Don't get hung up on the Ferus. The reviewer has a few other points that I was hoping you could address. Those would be a better use of your time.-TonyTheTiger <small>(T / C ↗ / WP:FOUR ↗ / WP:CHICAGO ↗ / WP:WAWARD ↗)</small> 03:06, 8 June 2026 (UTC)

It seems that we need to resolve four issues (see 00:27, 16 June 2026 (UTC) edit) to get back on track. Please help if you can.-TonyTheTiger <small>(T / C ↗ / WP:FOUR ↗ / WP:CHICAGO ↗ / WP:WAWARD ↗)</small> 07:11, 16 June 2026 (UTC)

*Each seems to be a debate about a word choice rather than a quote/reference matching (claim, debate, tensions, intimate). Can you review your sources and check the word. We seem to be about to be timed out for not addressing concerns fast enough.-TonyTheTiger <small>(T / C ↗ / WP:FOUR ↗ / WP:CHICAGO ↗ / WP:WAWARD ↗)</small> 14:30, 16 June 2026 (UTC)

*:I will take a look at the article and sources and see how each term is supported in context. Twixister (talk) 20:11, 16 June 2026 (UTC)

**:As I mentioned earlier, it is far more helpful on a FAC discussion to respond point-by-point. I mentioned 4 issues and you described your response with a single paragraph. This is a problem. The reviewer's response to your comment suggests that the issue involving "tensions" may have been left unresolved. Is it possible you could revise your response to address the 00:27, 16 June 2026 (UTC) edit issues individually. Then I think more of the 04:59, May 28, 2026 continues to be a TSI concern per the latest response.-TonyTheTiger <small>(T / C ↗ / WP:FOUR ↗ / WP:CHICAGO ↗ / WP:WAWARD ↗)</small> 04:38, 17 June 2026 (UTC)

**:Looking back, several of the 04:59, May 28, 2026 edit issues may appear ignored. I do reply point-by-point. So you can see what I have done on those. Since you don't reply point-by-point it is hard to tell what you have responded to.-TonyTheTiger <small>(T / C ↗ / WP:FOUR ↗ / WP:CHICAGO ↗ / WP:WAWARD ↗)</small> 09:53, 17 June 2026 (UTC)

**::I responded directly to your June 16, 2026 message above, as well as on the Featured Article discussion page. I addressed all of the issues in a single paragraph because they were raised together in a single paragraph. I also believe you are not supposed to substantially alter discussion comments once another editor has replied to them, and in this case Whonting has already responded directly to my comment.

Possible Campbell's Soup Cans ↗ renomination

I understand that the FAC process can be overwhelming and their standards of excellence are constantly rising. So pursuing a WP:FA ↗ is a very serious endeavor. I still feel that with 2 years left to improve the article, FA rating is not out of reach. However, each FAC is concerned about satisfaction of prior discussions and most importantly the recent FACs. I have left a summary of where I think we stand at Talk:Campbell%27s_Soup_Cans#Potentially_unresolved_at_FAC4 ↗. You are instrumental to responding to the current issues. Let me know if you would still want to be involved in pursuing FA status. Also, let me know if you feel you could help us improve the article in response to the remaining issues.-TonyTheTiger <small>(T / C ↗ / WP:FOUR ↗ / WP:CHICAGO ↗ / WP:WAWARD ↗)</small> 03:32, 20 June 2026 (UTC)

Speedy deletion ↗ of :10 Status of Liberty ↗

48px|left|alt=|link= ↗
The page :10 Status of Liberty ↗ has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done under section R3 of the criteria for speedy deletion ↗, because it was a recently created redirect from an implausible typo or misnomer, or other unlikely search term.

Please do not recreate the material without addressing these concerns, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines ↗. If you think this page should not have been deleted for this reason, you may contact the {{Querylink|Special:Log|qs=type=delete&page=10+Status+of+Liberty|deleting administrator}}, or if you have already done so, you may open a discussion at Wikipedia:Deletion review ↗.  <span style="color:#1C7E85"><b>Rusalkii</b></span> (talk) 00:48, 6 July 2026 (UTC)

Autopatrolled granted

right|80px ↗
Hi Twixister, I just wanted to let you know that I have <span class="plainlinks">added ↗</span> the autopatrolled user right ↗ to your account. This means that pages you create will automatically be marked as 'reviewed', and no longer appear in the new pages feed ↗. Autopatrolled is assigned to prolific creators of articles, where those articles do not require further review, and may have been requested ↗ on your behalf by someone else. It doesn't affect how you edit; it is used only to manage the workload of new page patrollers ↗.

Since the articles you create will no longer be systematically reviewed by other editors, it is important that you maintain the high standard you have achieved so far in all your future creations. Please also try to remember to add relevant WikiProject ↗ templates, stub tags ↗, categories ↗, and incoming links ↗ to them, if you aren't already in the habit; user scripts such as Rater and StubSorter can help with this. As you have already shown that you have a strong grasp of Wikipedia's core content policies ↗, you might also consider volunteering to become a new page patroller ↗ yourself, helping to uphold the project's standards and encourage other good faith article writers.

Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. Happy editing! <span class="nowrap">—<span style="color: #0b541f;">'''TechnoSquirrel69'''</span></span> <small>(<span style="color: #0b541f;">'''talk'''</span>)</small> 04:56, 9 July 2026 (UTC)

:Thank you very much for adding the autopatrolled right to my account. I appreciate the trust and recognition of my contributions. I'll continue to do my best to maintain a high standard in the articles I create and will keep your suggestion in mind. Thanks again, and happy editing to you as well!
