Hello, Remagoxer,
I'm not sure what your thinking was behind this page move but you presented no source verifying this major identity change and the move was reverted. Plus, it caused some confusion for the bots as it resulted in double redirects and some pages were needlessly deleted. If you are going to do a major rename like this, please present your sources on the article talk page so that it can be discussed or propose it at RM. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 19:55, 10 July 2019 (UTC)

Hello. Your account has been granted the "pending changes reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on pages protected by pending changes. The list of articles awaiting review is located at Special:PendingChanges, while the list of articles that have pending changes protection turned on is located at Special:StablePages.
Being granted reviewer rights neither grants you status nor changes how you can edit articles. If you do not want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time.

Since the introduction of temporary user rights, it is becoming more usual to accord the New Page Reviewer right on a probationary period of 3 to 6 months in the first instance. This avoids rights removal for inactivity at a later stage and enables a review of their work before according the right on a permanent basis.

A final update, for now:
The third grant-funded round of
WikiProject X has been completed. Unfortunately, while this round has not resulted in a deployed product, I am not planning to resume working on the project for the foreseeable future. Please see the
final report for more information.
