Reporting vandals
Hi HackedBotato! I'm guessing you are a little confused about how reporting vandals works, hence the misplaced abuse report in the article namespace. Here's the lowdown: if you want to report a vandal, you have to list them at the administrator intervention against vandalism noticeboard. Twinkle is a very useful automated tool that can help you do this; you can turn Twinkle on in your preferences. Also, we don't use the abuse response system anymore, hence the tag on it that says it has been marked historical. Even back in the day, Abuse Response was only used for very, very severe and prolonged cases of vandalism. Meanwhile, I have nominated your report at 216.100.91.10 for speedy deletion. You did the right thing by reverting the vandal's edits, but you just happened to file the report in the wrong place. I'd say in this case it would be a good idea to see if the IP continues vandalizing and then give them a few more warnings before reporting them. Happy editing! Altamel (talk) 01:20, 5 September 2014 (UTC)
Thanks!
Thanks for telling me! I will not do anything like test... again!

Hi, I was wondering why you reverted the edit I made to the xkcd article. Was my contribution incorrect? Please forgive any bone headed mistakes I may make, as I am a fairly new user. Also, did I ask this in the right place? Thanks! Cap'n Tightpants (talk) 02:04, 12 November 2014 (UTC)

Okay, it looks like you reverted the revert correctly. Thanks for fixing it! Cap'n Tightpants (talk) 17:34, 12 November 2014 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Tea house, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Refreshments. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

why do u wanna delete my page thats very rude of you to do ya know — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ultraswegmaster (talk • contribs) 06:26, 7 February 2015 (UTC)
Your recent contributions
Hi HackedBotato. Thank you for your good contributions. There are a couple of things that may be an issue, and I thought I'd drop by with a bit of guidance.
When you see a brand new stub, ask yourself if it is an advertisement for something. You moved Lilypad lacquer to Lilypad Lacquer when it was clearly an advert. If there is a website where someone can buy something, or the content at the userpage is promotional (even self-promotional), please consider tagging it for speedy deletion instead.
You moved Kyle marta to Kyle Marta, but googling shows the subject as almost certainly not notable. (I could be wrong about this because I am forced to use Bing in the country where I live.)
User:Sydnarose made an attack userpage. You tagged it as G7 (then removed the tag) and never dropped him a note. Better would have been WP:G10 and a caution at his user talk telling him not to make attack pages. (Consider also watchlisting such pages and even going back to check his contribs after a while.)
If you have an questions, please ask. Very best wishes, Anna Frodesiak (talk) 00:01, 8 February 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks for the feedback! Will keep in mind and use the useful advice you have provided for me. Thanks again! ~HackedBotato Chat with me ♽ Contribs 01:46, 8 February 2015 (UTC)

Rollback granted
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e7/Wikipedia_Rollbacker.svg/130px-Wikipedia_Rollbacker.svg.png)
Hi HackedBotato. After reviewing your request for rollback, 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:New admin school/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! — MusikAnimal talk 21:20, 8 February 2015 (UTC)

- HackedBotato, please be more careful when you are reverting edits. This was not the first mistake you have made today using STiki.

I wanted to know why on earth you changed the word 'paediatric' back to 'pediatric' on the Durdan's Hospital page. I don't care that you think this is the right way to spell it as it is the American way, I did not change it to match my British beliefs, but rather to match the Sri Lankan spelling, the country where said hospital stands. If you do not believe me, go to the Durdan's Hospital website and look at the paediatric department page, I think that should make things clear — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.29.92.254 (talk) 21:21, 20 February 2015 (UTC)

My message on the Softonic page was not in any way 'not constructive', I downloaded a program from Softonic and it screwed my computer with attached viruses and malware.
Now THAT'S 'not constructive'! And people should be able to know this, that behind all the 'trust our product' rubbish Softonic spreads malware. And your attitude in deleting my comment shows the company is happy to do this and deceive customers.

That's it, the first round is done, sign-ups are closed and we're into round 2. 64 competitors made it into this round, and are now broken into eight groups of eight. The top two of each group will go through to round 3, and then the top scoring 16 "wildcards" across all groups. Round 1 saw some interesting work on some very important articles, with the round leader Freikorp (submissions) owing most of his 622 points scored to a Featured Article on the 2001 film Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within which qualified for a times-two multiplier. This is a higher score than in previous years, as
Godot13 (submissions) had 500 points in 2014 at the end of round 1, and our very own judge,
Sturmvogel_66 (submissions) led round 1 with 601 points in 2013.
In addition to Freikorp's work, some other important articles and pictures were improved during round one, here's a snapshot of a few of them:
Cwmhiraeth (submissions) took Bumblebee, a level-4 vital article, to Good Article;
AHeneen (submissions) worked-up the Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 article, also to Good Article status;
Rodw (submissions) developed an extremely timely article to Good Article, taking Magna Carta there some 800 years after it was first sealed;
- And last but not least,
Godot13 (submissions) (FP bonus points) worked up a number of Featured Pictures during round 1, including the 1948 one Deutsche Mark (pictured right), receiving the maximum bonus due to the number of Wikis that the related article appears in.
You may also wish to know that The Core Contest is running through the month of March. Head there for further details - they even have actual prizes!
If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews.

Game Notability Discussion
Hello. From your experience, review and edit history of video game articles I would like to get your objective, neutral and unbiased opinion about this article which is nominated to be deleted Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/MonsterMMORPG_(2nd_nomination). Feel free to check references it has: Talk:MonsterMMORPG (a little bit scroll down). Article were also created as a draft, then accepted by an editor. I believe that Wikipedia is an ocean of knowledge so we should add as many as possible information, of course based on solid references, and I believe that is what you do. I believe that we should equally treat every article on Wikipedia and give articles chance to get expanded and grow and show respect to the article authors. Thank you very much for reading.

The second round one has all wrapped up, and round three has now begun! Congratulations to the 34 contestants who have made it through, but well done and thank you to all contestants who took part in our second round. Leading the way overall was Cas Liber (submissions) in Group B with a total of 777 points for a variety of contributions including Good Articles on Corona Borealis and Microscopium - both of which received the maximum bonus.
Special credit must be given to a number of high importance articles improved during the second round.
Coemgenus (submissions) was one of several users who worked on improving Ulysses S. Grant. Remember, you do not need to work on an article on your own - as long as each person has completed significant work on the article during 2015, multiple competitors can claim the same article.
Cwmhiraeth (submissions) took Dragonfly to Good Article for a 3x bonus - and if that wasn't enough, they also took Damselfly there as well for a 2x bonus.
LeftAire (submissions) worked up Alexander Hamilton to Good Article for the maximum bonus. Hamilton was one of the founding fathers of the United States and is a level 4 vital article.
The points varied across groups, with the lowest score required to gain automatic qualification was 68 in Group A - meanwhile the second place score in Group H was 404, which would have been high enough to win all but one of the other Groups! As well as the top two of each group automatically going through to the third round, a minimum score of 55 was required for a wildcard competitor to go through. We had a three-way tie at 55 points and all three have qualified for the next round, in the spirit of fairness. The third round ends on June 28, with the top two in each group progressing automatically while the remaining 16 highest scorers across all four groups go through as wildcards. Good luck to all competitors for the third round! Figureskatingfan (talk · contribs · email), Miyagawa (talk · contribs · email) and Sturmvogel 66 (talk · contribs · email) 16:33, 4 May 2015 (UTC)

Thanks, HackedBotato for seeing a problem with the new Sabaapathy article. It does appear that a user improperly copy-pasted text from within Wikipedia onto their own user page and then moved their user page to create a new article. All of it was in violation of our copyright policy as is explained at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. You'll see that the problem could not be fixed by simply moving the article back to the original page name-- that would have left an incorrect page history and failed to properly credit the original page authors. So I reverted the moves and restored the original copy of the article at Sabapathy -- and I believe the problem has now been repaired. I appreciate your mentioning that something was strange on the talk page. Cheers. — CactusWriter (talk) 15:57, 4 June 2015 (UTC)
- @CactusWriter: I spoke to the user before (You can find it on this page), he blanked a page I reverted and said he was "Moving from his user page", yet I have no idea what he wanted to do. He has a lot of "alts", as you can see in his user history. ~HB Chat ♽ Contribs 17:02, 4 June 2015 (UTC)

- Greetings! Thanks for downloading and trying out the STiki tool. Unfortunately, your first use came at a time when STiki was experiencing some technical difficulties, so your test-drive probably wasn't as positive as the STiki community would have liked. Because of edit ingestion problems you probably experienced an usually low "hit rate" (the percentage of edits a user sees that they revert). Typically these numbers hover in the 20-33% range, so I encourage you to come back and give us another try. Thanks, West.andrew.g (talk) 16:58, 1 July 2015 (UTC)

I'm not saying this isn't worth trying for at some point, but you've been on Wikipedia for less than a year and have less than 3,000 edits. If I were you, I would wait a bit longer per WP:NOTNOW. No matter how qualified you may be, you don't have any significant chance of succeeding in my honest opinion. I expect to see oppose votes in the request just based on you edit count and/or the amount of time you have been here for. I'm not saying this isn't an option to look at at some point in the future, but I don't think now is the right time. I just thought I'd try to help you out, so don't take this in a bad way, okay? Dustin (talk) 19:36, 10 July 2015 (UTC)
- I probably won't get admin rights, and I know that I have very little chance of succeeding right now. I'll probably get overwhelming oppose votes, but I just want to see what other users think I need more experience on. Thank you for giving me your advice and honest opinion! ~GottaGoFast Stepitup 19:43, 10 July 2015 (UTC)
- It's not a problem! There used to be an editor review process but that process is no longer available... This might not work, but maybe if you created a subpage such as User:GottaGoFast/Editor review or something along those lines and highlighted it on your userpage, you could get some comments by other editors passing by. I can't guarantee that that would be particularly effective, but that's the best I can come up with (and it's just a suggestion!). Dustin (talk) 19:52, 10 July 2015 (UTC)
- Hi, GottaGoFast, you've certainly been a very useful editor to the encyclopedia ever since I first welcomed you a year ago. But I have to agree with Dustin above, most RfA voters want to see a little more experience. You do a lot of vandalism reversion, which is good. But many RfA voters also want to see some strong content contributions, like writing a large portion of an article. Don't let this discourage you in any way; feedback is good, but you can always ask me or the other well-meaning editors around here if you want a check-up on how you are doing. I'm just glad to see that you're still around. I've welcomed hundreds of new users, most of whom make one or two edits and never come back. You are one of the only ones who haven't lost interest and have kept helping the encyclopedia. Altamel (talk) 19:48, 10 July 2015 (UTC)
- Altamel, your welcome was that little "push" that got me into Wikipedia. If you never did that, I wouldn't be even close to where I am today. I wanted to thank you for that, but never had the chance to, as I didn't even know what a userpage was back then. Thank you. ~GottaGoFast Stepitup 19:55, 10 July 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks. That means a lot to me, especially seeing that welcome in your "museum." Altamel (talk) 01:10, 11 July 2015 (UTC)
I am sorry it did not go well. If you feel like trying this again in the future when you have a better chance contact me. I will help you with some pre-vetting and even a nom if I think you are ready. Chillum 20:04, 10 July 2015 (UTC)
- Hi. Since there seems to be no realistic chance of success, I have closed your RfA per WP:SNOW. Generally, when running for adminship, you should have at least one year of experience (a few months more is preferable, though), and a few thousand well-balanced edits. A decent amount of participants at RfA usually expect at least a bit of content work, participation in Wikipedia maintenance (stating your opinion on proposals, working in one or two admin areas, etc.) Don't be discouraged though; remember that failing an RfA doesn't mean that you aren't a valued editor. Regards, --Biblioworm 20:16, 10 July 2015 (UTC)
- Thank you for closing the RfA and the advice! I will keep them in mind. ~GottaGoFast Stepitup 20:18, 10 July 2015 (UTC)
- Point being that if you can't read instructions when you see them, you won't be able to read and understand all the policies you need to know as an admin. Start at WP:Advice for RfA candidates and the links and footnotes on that page. All of them. Then read this, and if you can check all the boxes there, you'll make a fine admin, but please do not use RfA just to find out what peope think of you - it's disruptive and will damage any further chances of getting the mop. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 20:20, 10 July 2015 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for July 11
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited DragonVale, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Android. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 09:15, 11 July 2015 (UTC)
Hi there, although I agree that Osan Kumar Singh is likely a candidate for speedy deletion, I did want to draw to your attention that tagging an article 60 seconds after creation is a bit bitey and doesn't really assume good faith. This, of course, doesn't apply to things like adverts or attack pages, but generally giving a new user 10+ minutes is a good rule of thumb. --Non-Dropframe talk 20:39, 11 July 2015 (UTC)
- Thank you for this advice, I will give newly created articles time before tagging them as speedy. ~GottaGoFast Stepitup 20:39, 11 July 2015 (UTC)
