Your thread has been archived

Hi Satricious! The thread you created at the Wikipedia:Teahouse, What constitutes as vandalism and how should I deal with it?, has been archived because there was no discussion for a few days. You can still read the archived discussion. If you have follow-up questions, please . See also the help page about the archival process. The archival was done by Lowercase sigmabot III, and this notification was delivered by Muninnbot, both automated accounts.

Rollback

Hi Satricious. After reviewing your request, I have enabled rollback on your account. Please keep the following things in mind while using rollback:

• Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle or RedWarn.
• Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
• Rollback should never be used to edit war.
• If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
• Use common sense.

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into trouble or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! FASTILY 22:54, 14 February 2022 (UTC)

Re: kenyon cox drawing

I don’t think the nude study you removed is at all offensive or against policy. It’s a classic piece of fine art, not random porn. Just wanted to give my opinion but don’t feel pressured to re-add it. Dronebogus (talk) 09:17, 19 February 2022 (UTC)

@Dronebogus: Thanks for sharing your opinion! Yeah I removed it mostly because I thought others may see it as inappropriate or that it might draw people away from my user page. I agree, it's a fine piece of art. I'm quite fond of human anatomy and art in general, and I find that particular study to capture her body really well. I think I'll keep the image up actually, it's my user page so I might as well put up stuff that I admire and am fascinated by, I've already got David up there anyway. Humans are amazing :) Satricious (talk) 09:42, 19 February 2022 (UTC)

Bare URL inline

Hi Satricious

Your most recent 125 edits show that 85 of them were you using WP:AWB to add {{Bare URL inline}}.

This is a very bad idea, because the powerful ref-filling script WP:REFLINKS does not support {{Bare URL inline}}. By tagging those refs without first trying to fill them using Reflinks, you have blocked an easy path to filling them.

For example, you tagged[1] Stuart High School (Whyalla). I reverted your edit, and in this edit[2] I was able to use Reflinks o fill one of the refs. THe other bare refs on that page turned out to be dead, so I tagged them as dead.[3]

This is why I am using AWB to tag only the bare URL PDFs,: WP:REFLINKS cannot fill them, so tagging them does not impede improvemnet.

Back in May and June last year, I used AWB to add a lot of {{Bare URL inline}} tags, an t cued a huge shitsatorm for the reasons I explained above. I don't want that to happen to you, so I will now revert the edits in which you used AWB to add {{Bare URL inline}}.

I am sure that you mean well, but you are a relatively new editor with limited experience of the many nuances, quirks and complexities of en.wp. Leaping in lie this to make mass changes without being aware of all the issue is a recipe for drama, so please consult carefully before launching any similar tasks.
