Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer have them marked as minor by default.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you are familiar with the contents of WP:MINOR, and believe that it is still beneficial to the encyclopedia to have all your edits marked as such by default, then this discussion will give you the details you need to continue with this functionality indefinitely. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 19:09, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

MCIBS

Hi Redlock, I've had to decline your WP:A1 tagging of MCIBS because there was sufficient context to identify the subject of the article. If you still think the article doesn't belong, Articles for Deletion and Proposed Deletion are always options. Best, Airplaneman ✈ 02:28, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: St. Vincent and the Grenadines Junior National Squash Championships 2011

Hello Redlock, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of St. Vincent and the Grenadines Junior National Squash Championships 2011, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Any national championship, even from a small country as St. Vincent and the Grenadines, is very likely to garner national press. Consider AfD instead. You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you. Martijn Hoekstra (talk) 09:33, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

2006 NASCAR Sprint Series

I redirected this page to 2006 NASCAR Nextel Cup Series, because it is an exact copy of that article, and the NASCAR cup was known as the Nextel cup, not the Sprint cup in 2006. Just a heads up, since I saw you reviewed the page and didn't find any issues. War wizard90 (talk) 01:28, 11 December 2014 (UTC)
