y do u keep deleting my edits tf Horsesuckle (talk) 02:59, 24 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I've responded to your inquiry on your talk page. Thank you. Beauty School Dropout (talk) 03:03, 24 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism Incident

Thank you very much for updating me. I hope to retire this as soon as it is all over; I had created it solely for the purpose of correcting the vandalism, and am frustrated by said warnings. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ThatThat92 (talkcontribs) 00:53, 11 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

No problem! The system worked in this case as it was intended - that other person was blocked by an administrator, who investigated the situation and determined that they were the ones to be held responsible. Beauty School Dropout (talk) 00:59, 11 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much for all your help. I will be retiring this account now, but I appreciate all that you have done to help. Feel free to delete this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ThatThat92 (talkcontribs) 00:55, 12 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You're welcome. Beauty School Dropout (talk) 00:58, 12 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the compliment! Beauty School Dropout (talk) 01:00, 12 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Rollback

I have granted the "rollbacker" permission to your account. After a review of some of your contributions, I believe you can be trusted to use rollback for its intended usage of reverting vandalism, and that you will not abuse it by reverting good-faith edits or to revert-war. For information on rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback and Wikipedia:Rollback feature. If you do not want rollback, contact me and I will remove it. Good luck and thanks. – Gilliam (talk) 02:02, 12 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]


Thank you! Yes, I truly am enjoying my Wikipedia experience and would be pleased to learn the rollback lingo and software (if there is any to install or use.) Thanks! Beauty School Dropout (talk) 02:04, 12 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Many rollbackers use WP:HUGGLE or Wikipedia:STiki but personally I prefer to use the older User:Lupin/Anti-vandal tool. You can enable WP:TWINKLE in your Preferences under Gadgets, which allows you to choose from many semi-automated different vandalism warnings to post on vandals' talk pages. Please feel free to ask me if you have any questions, and I'll do my best to answer.– Gilliam (talk) 02:14, 12 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Hello Beauty School Dropout, thanks for removing your warnings on that IP editor, however I'd like to remind you that rollback is really only for obvious vandalism. Please keep that in mind in the future. Thanks! Happy editing!--Cameron11598 (Talk) 03:10, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Absolutely! And I genuinely appreciate your input because I am brand-new at this Wikipedia rollback experience. I am totally open and receptive to any level of analysis or evaluation of my Wikipedia actions. Beauty School Dropout (talk) 03:17, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Any time! Thanks for the Barnstar . Also its nice to see another ASL savvy wikipedian. --Cameron11598 (Talk) 03:49, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Franceska Mann edit

Hi, I saw my Franceska Mann edit was reverted, and am asking why that was done. Different accounts indeed place the incident in different locations, with Ber Mark's Scrolls of Auschwitz as an example of a source placing it at the selection ramp instead of the gas chamber, while this survivor's testimony places the incident at a work area of Auschwitz, albeit I find that version to be definitely not the truth what happened, given how it seemed Schillinger was the only Nazi casualty, and among the few established details were that Emmerich also sustained crippling leg injuries that day. 108.49.193.44 (talk) 04:23, 17 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

My suggestion would be to start a discussion on the article's talk page [[1]] and get input from other Wikipedia editors. Beauty School Dropout (talk) 04:26, 17 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

And when you have just a bit more experience with that, please read WP:NPR then WP:NPP and consider applying for New Page Reviewer. There's a lot to learn and remember though, but if you need any help, don't hesitate to ask. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 11:15, 31 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Andrew Cuomo - Thanks

Thanks for helping out with reverting repeated vandalism to the Andrew Cuomo article. I have reported the IP. It is obvious he will not stop until blocked - again. I hope an administrator acts soon because it is especially bad for the project to have such repeated vandalism to a biography of a living person. Donner60 (talk) 04:43, 6 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You're welcome. Beauty School Dropout (talk) 04:44, 6 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Imam Ahmed Ibn Ibrahim al Ghazi

Hi,

There seems to be a user(s) who keeps vandalising the ethnicity section of Imam Ahmed Gurey, the last paragraph refers to traditions of his Hawiye lineage which is sourced and referenced correctly but the said user(s) keep changing this to "Marehan". This is nothing but to mislead historical opinion on an important character in Somali history, can i ask if you can request to have the page protected as they are vandalizing the page daily now. I have tried to request the page be protected but possibly due to a lack of show of enough false editing (which there is now). Abshir55 (talk) 01:58, 16 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I made the request on your behalf. Thank you! Beauty School Dropout (talk) 02:04, 16 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
