Wikipedia is not a playground

Wikipedia is a project to build an encyclopaedia, not a playground. Editors who waste the time of other editors and administrators by messing around quite rightly get blocked. What is more, if another editor encourages such time-wasting activity then they may be blocked too. There are plenty of web sites where you can spend your time in hours of childish play if you wish to, but Wikipedia isn't one of them. JBW (talk) 22:57, 18 December 2020 (UTC)

No problem. I just noticed that you had attempted to link to a user's userpage on Teahouse and someone else linked to the user's userpage and yours was a blue link while theirs was a red link.

Rollback granted

 

Hi TigerScientist,

After reviewing your request, I have enabled rollback on your account. Please keep in mind these things when using 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.

For more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). 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! ~ ToBeFree (talk) 22:42, 13 May 2021 (UTC)

Thank you so much ToBeFree! TigerScientist Chat > contribs 22:44, 13 May 2021 (UTC)

TIME TO GO BUST SOME VANDALSSS TigerScientist Chat > contribs 22:57, 13 May 2021 (UTC)

How would the replies get clogged up?

I'm answering your question here. The replies on Teahouse are mainly meant for comments related to the question. When you start adding off-topic replies it can get a bit confusing for new users who think that all of that is the answer to their question. Blaze The Wolf | Proud Furry and Wikipedia Editor (talk) 13:26, 14 May 2021 (UTC)

Also, I would recommend simply redirecting your alt's talk page to your main's since it's, well, an alt. Blaze The Wolf | Proud Furry and Wikipedia Editor (talk) 13:28, 14 May 2021 (UTC)

I would Like to help you contribute on the Serengeti National Park

I would like to assist you in this project as I feel that this calls out to me alot. I saw this on the Wikipedia project board and after looking at the page itself, It really could need some improvement. Im willing to work together with you and bring this page to GA status. Im quite interested in geology and Im willing to expand on the geology part and on the page itself. TheEpicSnek (talk) 02:38, 23 May 2021 (UTC) Cheers

Thank you! This article is so important to many people and it isn’t that good. I am very interested in national parks and animals so this was my most edited page and the most I have contributed to. I can’t edit today. TigerScientist Chat > contribs 03:21, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

Once the page is mostly finished, We can nominate this page for GA. Ill continue adding information and make the page better TheEpicSnek (talk) 04:13, 23 May 2021 (UTC) No worries :)

Same. This page means a lot to me and thank you for helping me getting this to GA (FA in the making). TigerScientist Chat > contribs 04:18, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

I nominated the page for GA and Its waiting for review, This might take a while so lets continue adding adding more information and makng it better EpicSnek Talk to me here 08:07, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for Welcome! My First Question...

Hi TigerScientist! Thanks again for the welcome and for the feedback on my anti-vandalism attempt on User_talk:AanyaP8!

I first want to ask what you meant in your comment. What do you mean that I could warn them? Does my anti-vandalism message constitute something other than a warning? Sorry if I'm still slow, I'm still very lost, haha. Sentimex (talk) 07:55, 25 May 2021 (UTC)

Sentimex Well now that I think about it yeah it is a warning. Have you downloaded WP:TWINKLE yet? It has a auto warn feature that is super useful. You just select a warning such as unsourced or vandalism and select the level and you have a automatic warning. I also recommend WP:REDWARN. TigerScientist Chat > contribs 15:16, 25 May 2021 (UTC)

disruptive editing

Your edits at Ritchie's talk, including pinging him to his own talk, are starting to feel like you're WP:NOTHERE. You might want to call it a night. —valereee (talk) 18:26, 10 June 2021 (UTC)

Ok I get it I am not going to do that stuff. TigerScientist Chat > contribs 18:27, 10 June 2021 (UTC)
Also this is not going to discourage me. In fact, I am going for 2,000 edits today. TigerScientist Chat > contribs 18:56, 10 June 2021 (UTC)

Other news

June election: Jonesey95 was chosen to continue as lead coordinator, assisted by Dhtwiki, Tenryuu, and Miniapolis.

New maintenance template added to our project scope: After a short discussion in June, we added {{cleanup tense}} to the list of maintenance templates that adds articles to the Guild's copy editing backlog categories. This change added 198 articles, spread over 97 months of backlog, to our queue. We processed all of those articles except for those from the three or four most recent months during the July backlog elimination drive (Here's a link to a "tense" discussion during the drive).

Progress report: As of 18:26, 24 September 2021 (UTC), GOCE copyeditors have processed 468 requests since 1 January and there were 60 requests awaiting completion on the Requests page. The backlog of articles tagged for copy-editing stood at 433 (see monthly progress graph above).

Thank you all again for your participation; we wouldn't be able to achieve what we have without you! Cheers from your GOCE coordinators Jonesey95, Dhtwiki, Tenryuu, and Miniapolis.

December 2021 GOCE Newsletter

Guild of Copy Editors December 2021 Newsletter
 

 

Hello and welcome to the December GOCE newsletter, a brief update of Guild activities since September 2021.

                 Current and upcoming events

Election time: Our end-of-year election of coordinators opened for nominations on 1 December and will close on 15 December at 23:59 (UTC). Voting opens at 00:01 the following day and will continue until 31 December at 23:59, just before "Auld Lang Syne". Coordinators normally serve a six-month term and are elected on an approval basis. Self-nominations are welcome. If you've thought of helping out at the Guild, or know of another editor who would make a good coordinator, please consider standing for election or nominating them here.

December Blitz: We have scheduled a week-long copy-editing blitz for 12 to 18 December. Sign up now!

Drive and Blitz reports

September Drive: Almost 400,000 words of articles were copy edited for this event. Of the 27 people who signed up, 21 copyedited at least one article. Final results and awards are listed here.

October Blitz: From 17 to 23 October, we copy edited articles tagged in May and June 2021 and requests. 8 participating editors completed 26 copy edits on the blitz. Final results, including barnstars awarded, are available here.

November Drive: Over 350,000 words of articles were copy edited for this event. Of the 21 people who signed up, 14 copyedited at least one article. Final results and awards are listed here.

Other news

It is with great sadness that we report the death on 19 November of Twofingered Typist, who was active with the Guild almost daily for the past several years. His contributions long exceeded the thresholds for the Guild's highest awards, and he had a hand in innumerable good and featured article promotions as a willing collaborator. Twofingered Typist also served as a Guild coordinator from July 2019 to June 2021. He is sorely missed by the Wikipedia community.

Progress report: As of 30 November, GOCE copyeditors have completed 619 requests in 2021 and there were 51 requests awaiting completion on the Requests page. The backlog stood at 946 articles tagged for copy-editing (see monthly progress graph above).

Thank you all again for your participation; we wouldn't be able to achieve what we have without you! Cheers from your GOCE coordinators Jonesey95, Dhtwiki, Tenryuu, and Miniapolis.
