Rollback granted
right|130px ↗
Hi Wracking. After reviewing your request, I have <span class="plainlinks">enabled ↗</span> '''rollback ↗''' on your account. Please keep the following things in mind while using rollback:
- Being granted rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle ↗ or Ultraviolet ↗. It just adds a ''[rollback]'' button next to a page's latest live revision. It does not grant you any additional "status" on Wikipedia, nor does it change how Wikipedia policies apply to you.
- Rollback should be used to revert <em>clear and unambiguous cases</em> of vandalism {{emu|only}}. <em>Never</em> use rollback to revert good faith edits. For more information about when rollback is appropriate, see {{section link|Wikipedia:Rollback|When to use rollback}}.
- Rollback should never be used to edit war ↗, and it should never be used in a content-related dispute to restore the page to your preferred revision. If rollback is abused or used for this purpose or any other inappropriate purpose, the permission will be revoked.
- Use common sense. If you're not sure about something, <strong>''ask!''</strong>

One Week Left in The Core Contest!
Hello Core Contest participants! There is less than '''one week left''' until the May 31 deadline (23:59 UTC), so it's time to ramp up our efforts. Remember, Wikipedia wants to be edited!
Now is a good time to set some final goals for your article: What section needs the most improvement? Which sources remain unused? How can you best spend your time? Good luck and happy editing! Cheers from the judges, Femke, Casliber, Aza24. – '''<span style="font-family:Lucida;"><span style="color:darkred">Aza24</span><span style="color:#848484"> (talk)</span></span>''' 19:37, 26 May 2026 (UTC)

The 2026 Core Contest Winners!
The winners of the 2026 Core Contest ↗ are announced 🎉. A ''huge'' turnout that resulted in one of our trickiest deliberation sessions. The judges ({{noping|Aza24}}, {{noping|Femke}} and {{noping|Casliber}}) would like to thank everybody who joined and congratulate the winners!
- First place (and a prize of £120) goes to {{user|Vigilantcosmicpenguin}} for his dual efforts on Flatbread ↗ and Tortilla ↗! One, formerly an unsourced list-like article, and the other, once a poorly sourced and spotty overview, both now number 250+ citations from an impressively academic source pool. We particularly commend the efforts to globalize content, treat the topics comprehensively and thoughtfully select illustrations. Both articles (one now a GA ↗) are of a uniquely high quality amid the often underserved food topics on Wikipedia. Bravo!
- Second place (and a prize of £100) goes to {{user|Phlsph7}}, a Core Contest regular who has once again shown a mastery of big topics, with his dual efforts on Agnosticism ↗ and Premise ↗—both now GA ↗s (one, with a review by our first place winner!). With immensely thorough sourcing improvements, alongside carefully nuanced text on these often misunderstood topics, both articles are a pleasure to read.
- Third place (and a prize of £80) goes to {{user|MCE89}}, whose improvements to the Heard Island and McDonald Islands ↗ article have led to a triumphant FA ↗ declaration. The incredible balance of detail between human, geographical and flora-fauna elements is a great achievement, and sets a high standard for future island articles.

Ben, Halo Taco.
If you removed Ben and Halo Taco, both are notable and I made those pages so I wouldn't forget to work on them. Halo Taco in particular is one of the largest nail polish companies on Earth, let alone their regions. Ben once was one of the top players for some video games and is a notable streamer, let alone his contributions to Halo Taco and Christine. I am asking for those pages to come back so I can continue working on them please. Boomgaarden93 (talk) 17:15, 7 July 2026 (UTC)
:@Boomgaarden93, I removed AI-generated content from an article talk page; I did not edit any article contents. Reverted additions are still visible in the page history ↗. Please refer to WP:TPG ↗ and WP:AITALK ↗. For an article to be published to the mainspace, please consult WP:N ↗ and WP:RS ↗. <span style="font-variant:small-caps;border-radius:9em;background:#E0E8E0; color:#1a4c39; padding:4px;">Wracking</span> <sup>talk!</sup> 17:21, 7 July 2026 (UTC)
::what AI generated talk page? I have been working on adding relevant (if overly generously) wiki projects to neglected articles. what makes it AI generated? It's purely just adding projects. Boomgaarden93 (talk) 17:25, 7 July 2026 (UTC)
:::@Boomgaarden93, Your contributions to Talk:Holo Taco ↗ appear to be AI-generated. As another user asked you, please stop adding WikiProjects to talk pages, and please stop changing ratings and assessments. <span style="font-variant:small-caps;border-radius:9em;background:#E0E8E0; color:#1a4c39; padding:4px;">Wracking</span> <sup>talk!</sup> 17:28, 7 July 2026 (UTC)
::::I only got that message now, as well, I did stop. Now I'm working on another project. I did as I was recommended. Again, it was a placeholder so I can work on it today. Not the final product. I am liable to forget things, so I created that so I can add it to my saves then work on it. Please let me prove it. Boomgaarden93 (talk) 17:32, 7 July 2026 (UTC)
