Huggle 3Hey RacoonyRE! I am Petrb, one of core developers of Huggle, the antivandalism tool, which you are beta testing (according to https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Huggle/Members#Beta_testers). I am happy to announce that Huggle 3 is ready for some testing. You can read more about it at WP:Huggle/Huggle3_Beta. Please keep in mind that this is a development version and it is not ready for regular use. That means you must:
If you find any problem with a feature that is supposed to work perfectly, please let us know. Some features are not ready yet, it is listed in known problems on Huggle3 beta page, you don't need to report these - we know it! So, that's it. Have fun testing and please let us know about any problems, either using bugzilla @ http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/ or #huggle connect. Please respond to my talk page, I am not going to watch your talk page. Thank you Petrb ( talk) 10:57, 14 November 2013 (UTC) Huggle 3 beta is out - and we need more feedback!Hey RacoonyRE, how are you? I am Petrb, one of huggle developers, and you are currently subscribed as a beta tester of huggle on meta ( meta:Huggle/Members. You may not have noticed, but this week I released first beta precompiled installers for ubuntu and microsoft windows! Wikipedia:Huggle/Huggle3_Beta has all the links you need. So if you can, please download it, test it and report all bugs that is really what we need now. Don't forgot that as it's just a beta it's unstable and there are some known issues. Be carefull! Thank you for helping us with huggle Petrb ( talk) 16:24, 29 November 2013 (UTC) We need your help testing latest huggleHello, I am sending you this message because you listed yourself on meta:Huggle/Members as a beta tester. We desperately need attention of testers, because since we resolved all release blockers, we are ready to release first official version of huggle 3! Before that happens, it would be nice if you could test it so that we can make sure there are no issues with it. You can download it packaged for your operating system (see Wikipedia:Huggle/Huggle3_Beta) or you can of course build it yourself, see https://github.com/huggle/huggle3-qt-lx for that. Don't forget to use always latest version, there is no auto-update message for beta versions! Should you find any issue, please report it to wikimedia bugzilla, that is a central place for huggle bugs, where we look at them. That is i mportant, if you find a bug and won't report it, we can't fix it. Thank you for your work on this, if you have any questions, please send me a message on my talk page, I won't be looking for responses here. Thanks, Petrb ( talk) 15:15, 10 April 2014 (UTC) New huggle 3.1 is going to be released soonHi RacoonyRE, we are to release a new major version of huggle, but we did receive almost no feedback from our beta testing team, which you are a part of (see https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Huggle/Members). It would be of a great help if you could download it (if you have windows, all you need to do is getting http://tools.wmflabs.org/huggle/files/huggle3.1.0beta.exe and putting it to a folder where you have installed huggle) and test it. You can always get a help with making it @ #huggle connect! Major changes:
In case you found a bug, please report it to bugzilla: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/buglist.cgi?product=Huggle&list_id=147663 thank you! Petrb ( talk) 10:13, 30 July 2014 (UTC) Huggle messageHey RacoonyRE! You are receiving this message because you are subscribed at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Huggle/Members#Beta_testers I have recently launched a new downloads for beta testers that contains nightly builds of huggle, eg. versions that are built every day from our master branch and contains latest huggle. These builds are currently provided only for Windows and Ubuntu. You can find them here: http://huggle.wmflabs.org/builds/ Please keep in mind that these don't have any automatic updates and if you download and start using nightly build, you will need to update it yourself! So don't get yourself to running old version, it's possible to install both stable and nightly huggle, which is what I suggest. Keep the bug reports coming to phabricator: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/maniphest/task/create/?projects=Huggle Many thanks! Petrb ( talk) 10:01, 28 January 2015 (UTC) Rollback granted![]() Hi RacoonyRE. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have temporarily enabled rollback on your account until {{{expiry}}}. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:
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! Go Phightins ! 01:59, 13 March 2021 (UTC)
Revolutionary Girl Utena EditSorry this is my first time using talk so I hope this is right. I made these edits: https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Revolutionary%20Girl%20Utena&diff=1013302477 You determined that these were not constructive, but currently the paragraph is a bit disjointed. Particularly the two lines before the quotation: "In a July 2017 interview with Shamus Kelly of Den of Geek[50] It would also influence series in the 2000s. she would describe how the show affected her:" I tried to move the "It would also influence series in the 2000s" to a place that made sense, which is the beginning since the rest of the paragraph talks about Sugar. The last sentence is clearly an issue unless the aforementioned line is removed, in which case it reads "In a July 2017 interview with Shamus Kelly of Den of Geek[50] she would describe how the show affected her:" The rest of my edits were just small changes to make it flow and sure, not constructive, but at the very least, the sentence about influencing series in the 2000s needs to be moved. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2603:7000:2F02:176:85A2:400C:348:AB10 ( talk) 22:30, 20 March 2021 (UTC)

Changes to the page Coptic Orthodox Diocese of the Southern United StatesHello I recently saw that you reversed my edit to the page of the southern diocese. The first section deleted was only sources from court documents (it was actually originally posted by me) but I found out that I found out that court documents cannot be sourced for such information. Other small changes were made to make the change more accurate in correspondence with the sourced material and not other information which I knew from other sources (persons, rumors etc.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Titus Obelisk ( talk • contribs) 21:37, 4 April 2021 (UTC)
VandalismA lot of us read and research about our favourite musicians and we find false information as a matter of fact, so editing and putting in the right information on display for the public is not vandalism. Some of us know the right information about the people we read about here and most of what's written is actually false, so we don't really care about who have been a Wikipedian for 13 years or so..we only wanna read the correct information and log out. Let's not throw around accusations. N4RO7 Pronounced As Nero Four-Seven. ( talk) 22:59, 4 April 2021 (UTC)

Am I in trouble?Hi RacoonyRE. Thank you for reverting those strange conflicting edits on Graham Scott (referee). I have one question though— when I looked at my edit history, I had reverted the weird edits on that page three times. Am I going to get into trouble for edit warring? I mean, I’m pretty certain what I reverted was a BLP problem or vandalism, but there’s a seed of doubt within me. Thanks, HelenDegenerate ( talk) 21:13, 17 April 2021 (UTC)
Please Add Another Part to The Meaning of XDHi, I just want to say maybe you should add a little bit more to the meaning of XD even though I already know what it means but other people might not understand so I think you should add a part about how you can understand better if you look at it sideways but I am amazed how you can look after every single meaning and everything. You delete things that people do if it does not make sense I really appreciate you Thanks, Livi1119
Note about an edit notificationHi! Good to be able to message you and also to thank you for doing such an important job with the invaluable resource that is Wikipedia 🙂 Just to say that I didn't make the edit, but there may be an issue for your attention. There is a long list that I can see here of notifications about edits being reversed, and in every previous case, A) I know I did not make these changes, and B) the explanation is clear – that I was using a shared IP address (most commonly I was online in a coffee shop) and there is a note attached to that effect. So, no problem; even though some of the warnings are strongly worded, I know they do not apply to me as I have not ever visited the pages mentioned. This time, though, I see no such note on your recent notification. And the other change in circumstances would be that we have all been locked down and I have been working from home alone using my own connection only, which no-one else can access, and I have not used an open IP address for over a year. So, I am just letting you know in case there is a glitch in the system. FYI: The edit was the removal of information, you explain, from a page about Greatest Hits Radio – an entity I was unaware of until now, and would not presume to make any edits about! Many thanks and best wishes. Stay safe, Stuart — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.205.198.146 ( talk) 11:28, 22 April 2021 (UTC)

Teyora - Development first look!![]() Hi! I'm Ed6767, the original creator of RedWarn, now one of the most popular tools on the English Wikipedia that's been used by over 1,000 Wikimedians to make over 300,000 edits since mid-2020 that's been praised for its user friendliness and ease of use, but criticised for its limited functionality. I'm leaving this message as I think it may be of interest here - I left the RedWarn project in November to develop Teyora, my successor to RedWarn (alongside Chlod's UltraViolet). It's a new in development web app that uses some of the latest web technologies to create a highly extendable all in one editing tool with a focus on administration, counter vandalism and general patrolling - not to mention, it'll work on every Wikimedia project without any prior configuration and can be used by any user with at least auto-confirmed rights*. Now, I'm ready to give the Wikimedia community a first look at what I've been doing over the past six months and what to expect going forward. You can check out the 20 minute first look at the in development version on YouTube here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nzlpnzXdLP4. There's lots more to expect too! Why not read the full details page at meta:Teyora and leave any feedback, comments or wishes at meta:Talk:Teyora (please leave any correspondence there to keep discussion centralised). If you're interested, you can leave your signature *with basic features, advanced features require configuration. To prevent abuse, auto-confirmed users will be in a restricted mode until approved by an admin or via rollback rights.

I made these edits: https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Revolutionary%20Girl%20Utena&diff=1013302477 You determined that these were not constructive, but currently the paragraph is a bit disjointed. Particularly the two lines before the quotation: "In a July 2017 interview with Shamus Kelly of Den of Geek[50] It would also influence series in the 2000s. she would describe how the show affected her:" I tried to move the "It would also influence series in the 2000s" to a place that made sense, which is the beginning since the rest of the paragraph talks about Sugar. The last sentence is clearly an issue unless the aforementioned line is removed, in which case it reads "In a July 2017 interview with Shamus Kelly of Den of Geek[50] she would describe how the show affected her:" The rest of my edits were just small changes to make it flow and sure, not constructive, but at the very least, the sentence about influencing series in the 2000s needs to be moved. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2603:7000:2F02:176:85A2:400C:348:AB10 ( talk) 22:30, 20 March 2021 (UTC)

Rationale for recent deletionI understand why you flagged my deletion on Lisa Su, but if you wouldn't mind taking a look at my explanation in the edit history and reading the sources (at your convenience), I think you'll understand my rationale for the deletion.

Beth Bernobich editsHi, RacoonyRE, Sorry for the double delete! I was removing what appeared to be duplicate entries from the "Selected Works," since they already appear under the Claire O'Dell section. (The author has re-released a number of works under her pen name, and is no longer publishing as Beth Bernobich.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.109.26.102 ( talk) 20:31, 27 March 2021 (UTC)
About Victor BasadreHello, I´m Victor Basadre, and i´d like to inform you about lots of mistakes and misrepresentations that appears in Wikipedia web site, under mi name.

Changes to the page Coptic Orthodox Diocese of the Southern United StatesHello I recently saw that you reversed my edit to the page of the southern diocese. The first section deleted was only sources from court documents (it was actually originally posted by me) but I found out that I found out that court documents cannot be sourced for such information. Other small changes were made to make the change more accurate in correspondence with the sourced material and not other information which I knew from other sources (persons, rumors etc.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Titus Obelisk ( talk • contribs) 21:37, 4 April 2021 (UTC)
VandalismA lot of us read and research about our favourite musicians and we find false information as a matter of fact, so editing and putting in the right information on display for the public is not vandalism. Some of us know the right information about the people we read about here and most of what's written is actually false, so we don't really care about who have been a Wikipedian for 13 years or so..we only wanna read the correct information and log out. Let's not throw around accusations. N4RO7 Pronounced As Nero Four-Seven. ( talk) 22:59, 4 April 2021 (UTC)

Your warning about that edit to Blair House...The warning you gave via Huggle to 74.96.70.236 on their talk page is in error and should be withdrawn or rev-del'ed or apologized-for or something.

Hi, i'm a full time employe at «Gay Line». «Gay line» as change its name many years ago. Actually, most informations on this Wikipedia page is wrong including the founder, the historic and the activities. Somehow, this page has become a mash-up of tree distinct organizations across Canada and New-Zeland. Yet, it is the english version of Interligne (New name of «Gay Line»).

Sorry, I undid a previous edit but there is a serious problem with this page.The song clearly rips off I'd rather go blind and several other contributors have tried to put it in the notes.

Am I in trouble?Hi RacoonyRE. Thank you for reverting those strange conflicting edits on Graham Scott (referee). I have one question though— when I looked at my edit history, I had reverted the weird edits on that page three times. Am I going to get into trouble for edit warring? I mean, I’m pretty certain what I reverted was a BLP problem or vandalism, but there’s a seed of doubt within me. Thanks, HelenDegenerate ( talk) 21:13, 17 April 2021 (UTC)
Please Add Another Part to The Meaning of XDHi, I just want to say maybe you should add a little bit more to the meaning of XD even though I already know what it means but other people might not understand so I think you should add a part about how you can understand better if you look at it sideways but I am amazed how you can look after every single meaning and everything. You delete things that people do if it does not make sense I really appreciate you Thanks, Livi1119
Note about an edit notificationHi! Good to be able to message you and also to thank you for doing such an important job with the invaluable resource that is Wikipedia 🙂 Just to say that I didn't make the edit, but there may be an issue for your attention. There is a long list that I can see here of notifications about edits being reversed, and in every previous case, A) I know I did not make these changes, and B) the explanation is clear – that I was using a shared IP address (most commonly I was online in a coffee shop) and there is a note attached to that effect. So, no problem; even though some of the warnings are strongly worded, I know they do not apply to me as I have not ever visited the pages mentioned. This time, though, I see no such note on your recent notification. And the other change in circumstances would be that we have all been locked down and I have been working from home alone using my own connection only, which no-one else can access, and I have not used an open IP address for over a year. So, I am just letting you know in case there is a glitch in the system. FYI: The edit was the removal of information, you explain, from a page about Greatest Hits Radio – an entity I was unaware of until now, and would not presume to make any edits about! Many thanks and best wishes. Stay safe, Stuart — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.205.198.146 ( talk) 11:28, 22 April 2021 (UTC)

Teyora - Development first look!![]() Hi! I'm Ed6767, the original creator of RedWarn, now one of the most popular tools on the English Wikipedia that's been used by over 1,000 Wikimedians to make over 300,000 edits since mid-2020 that's been praised for its user friendliness and ease of use, but criticised for its limited functionality. I'm leaving this message as I think it may be of interest here - I left the RedWarn project in November to develop Teyora, my successor to RedWarn (alongside Chlod's UltraViolet). It's a new in development web app that uses some of the latest web technologies to create a highly extendable all in one editing tool with a focus on administration, counter vandalism and general patrolling - not to mention, it'll work on every Wikimedia project without any prior configuration and can be used by any user with at least auto-confirmed rights*. Now, I'm ready to give the Wikimedia community a first look at what I've been doing over the past six months and what to expect going forward. You can check out the 20 minute first look at the in development version on YouTube here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nzlpnzXdLP4. There's lots more to expect too! Why not read the full details page at meta:Teyora and leave any feedback, comments or wishes at meta:Talk:Teyora (please leave any correspondence there to keep discussion centralised). If you're interested, you can leave your signature *with basic features, advanced features require configuration. To prevent abuse, auto-confirmed users will be in a restricted mode until approved by an admin or via rollback rights.
