Hello, Susmuffin,
Please set up Twinkle so that you notify the page creator each time you tag a page for deletion. Every time. It's easy to set up in your Twinkle preferences, just make sure that each category of CSD is checked. Once you have changed your settings in preferences, these notifications will happen automatically.
Also, CSD R3 only applies to recently created redirects. And by "recently created", that is counted in days and weeks, not months and years. So a redirect from 2013 is not recently created and you'll need to propose it at WP:RFD. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 00:53, 9 October 2020 (UTC)

Hi there, I'm Roxy! You recently reverted an edit by 78.2.150.28 ( talk · contribs) on Glina, Croatia, labelling it as vandalism. These edits—while containing POV and failing to adhere to BRD—appeared to be made in good faith. Obviously I don't need to cite the entirety of WP:NOTVANDALISM to you, and I'd feel very rude posting a template here. I just wanted to remind that overly zealous use of "vandalism" can confuse and discourage new editors. Thanks for your hard work in keeping articles clean!

Hello, Susmuffin,
Please set up Twinkle so that you notify the page creator each time you tag a page for deletion. Every time. It's easy to set up in your Twinkle preferences, just make sure that each category of CSD is checked. Once you have changed your settings in preferences, these notifications will happen automatically.
Also, CSD R3 only applies to recently created redirects. And by "recently created", that is counted in days and weeks, not months and years. So a redirect from 2013 is not recently created and you'll need to propose it at WP:RFD. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 00:53, 9 October 2020 (UTC)

Hi there, I'm Roxy! You recently reverted an edit by 78.2.150.28 ( talk · contribs) on Glina, Croatia, labelling it as vandalism. These edits—while containing POV and failing to adhere to BRD—appeared to be made in good faith. Obviously I don't need to cite the entirety of WP:NOTVANDALISM to you, and I'd feel very rude posting a template here. I just wanted to remind that overly zealous use of "vandalism" can confuse and discourage new editors. Thanks for your hard work in keeping articles clean!
