Thomas the Tank Engine edit

How did you end up getting to IP 2607:FEA8:29A0:B4A:7C23:1DD:7D51:ECD9? Are you a creeper? Yes, IP was vandalizing, but on a different page. This IP was only editing on one specific article: Clint Oldenburg, and all of his contributions (a.k.a. vandalisms) were on that page. Don't accuse anyone if the contribution (this we are referring to Thomas) is not there. Thank you. —Bey WHEELZ Let It RIP!📝 03:01, 1 November 2017 (UTC) ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Sorry, I must've made a mistake. Everyone makes mistakes, including you (as I saw on your talk page, getting squished by a whale :D). I am new, and will try not to make the same mistake again in the future.

A note about warnings edit

Re this message: Actually, the user would be blocked, not banned. —C.Fred (talk) 03:05, 8 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

What's the difference? AllyGebies (talk) 03:06, 8 November 2017 (UTC)Reply
For starters, there's no community discussion required for a block. But beyond that...what specific parts of the two policies aren't you clear on? —C.Fred (talk) 03:28, 8 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

Yeah. Please review WP:block and WP:ban. A block can be made by an admin to protect the project. A ban requires a formal consensus based decision by the community to restrict a user's editing. It need not involve a block. -- Dlohcierekim (talk) 03:21, 10 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

Little Crow edit

There's a pattern of disruption there not confined to a single IP. I applied pending changes protection. -- Dlohcierekim (talk) 03:23, 10 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

FYI edit

when you use twinkle in the drop down from the top - when editing - templated messages such as the welcome and added australian project info - does what a lot of new users do :) - leave it at the top... your re-placing it is what usually should be basic practice... hope you enjoy wikipedia !!! JarrahTree 01:41, 21 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

New messages always go at the bottom on a talk page.
When I added the welcome template with Australia project context, it placed it at the top.
I assumed you put it back at the bottom, as should be the case with new messages.

How did I go this time... JarrahTree 01:49, 21 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

Good, now I understand. Thanks, AllyGebies (talk) 01:50, 21 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

No problems, I really hope you enjoy being on wikipedia !! JarrahTree 01:57, 21 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

Jackson J. Spielvogel edit

I've protected the page following your RfPP request. That article was a trainwreck. I've cleaned it up, put pending changes on and am watching it. Thanks for the headsup. GedUK  10:37, 31 January 2018 (UTC)Reply

Glad I could help. AllyGebies (talk) 23:49, 31 January 2018 (UTC)Reply

February 2018 edit

 

Hi AllyGebies. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

  • Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
  • 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 troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! GABgab 21:10, 7 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

Ways to improve Galaxy On Fire 2 edit

Hi, I'm Meatsgains. AllyGebies, thanks for creating Galaxy On Fire 2!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Consider providing reliable sources to strengthen the page's verifiability.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.

Meatsgains(talk) 02:03, 22 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

Yep I know, I didn't have time to add references as I needed to go out for lunch and just started creating the article before leaving. I will now work on the article and add references and everything. AllyGebies (talk) 03:26, 22 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

New editors edit

to quote.......

Welcoming people using one of the standard user greetings is a great way to send a positive vibe. New users can be found by looking for red talk page links on recent changes or by querying the database or check Wikipedia's account creation log or Newbies' contributions log. You can go to Wikipedia:Welcoming committee/Welcome templates for a full list of welcome templates, or to Wikipedia:Welcoming committee/Welcome templates/Table for a visual gallery of welcome messages. The two most commonly used are {{subst:Welcome}} and {{subst:W-graphical}}. See also Wikipedia:WikiProject Editor Retention.--Moxy (talk) 01:47, 1 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

Teahouse - welcome templates edit

Just to say that a couplee of us have added replies to your question at the Teahouse, which I hope you find helpful. See here. Regards, Nick Moyes (talk) 12:42, 1 March 2018 (UTC)Reply
