FAC withdrawal

I appreciate that you are acting in good faith, but it is best if featured articles are nominated by people who have worked closely on them. In this way, they can give reasoned replies to reviewers and be familiar enough with the sources to act on suggested improvements. Someone who has not worked on the article can not provide this input, so the nomination may continue until opposition to it becomes so overwhelming that the article is failed; this takes away time from reviewers. While the Nuclear program of Iran article is of reasonable quality, it is not yet of featured quality, and principal contributors must be consulted before a nomination, as required in the featured article candidate instructions. You might consider first working the article up through peer review and good article candidacy to prepare for its nomination.

• Oh, I didn't relize that it had to be the article's main contributer that had to provide the nomination. I'm sorry about that. Bobwrits (talk) 02:56, 9 April 2009 (UTC)

It's always nice to see another user with an interest in fighting vandalism, so I decided to give you a nice welcoming. I noticed that all you're doing right now is reverting the vandalism; therefore, I'd like to give you a friendly reminder that it's common to warn the vandal (usually with one of these templates) on their talk page. Keep up the good work! I would have stuck this at the top of the page, but I don't believe in bumping innocent conversations. —LedgendGamer 03:16, 9 April 2009 (UTC)

Rollback

I have granted rollback rights to your account; the reason for this is that after a review of some of your contributions, I believe I can trust you to use rollback correctly by using it 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:New admin school/Rollback and Wikipedia:Rollback feature. If you do not want rollback, just let me know, and I'll remove it. Good luck and thanks. –Juliancolton | ^Talk 00:55, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
