[edit] Hello, I'm Wtmitchell. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions—specifically this edit to Appleton Technical Academy—because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Help desk. Thanks. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 14:59, 24 March 2022 (UTC)
- @Wtmitchell: I assume there might be some misunderstanding, that edit was not made by me but an IP which I had reverted, see this as it was unexplained content removal. Dove's talk (talk) 15:02, 24 March 2022 (UTC)

- The comment was edited out because there is only one Civil War monument in Pea Ridge National Military Park. It is was dedicated to the war dead on both sides of the battle. The comments that were taken out stated there were multiple monuments. There aren't. Those statements edited are not the truth. I have been to the National Park multiple times. What I wrote is accurate. 75.168.42.27 (talk) 18:56, 25 March 2022 (UTC)

Rollback granted
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e7/Wikipedia_Rollbacker.svg/130px-Wikipedia_Rollbacker.svg.png)
Hi Dove's talk,
After reviewing your request, I have added your account to the rollback group. Keep in mind these things when using rollback:
- Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
- Users should be informed (or warned) after their edits have been reverted. If warnings repeatedly don't help, WP:ANI is the default place to go. In cases of very clear ongoing intentional damage to the encyclopedia, WP:AIV can be used.
- Reverting someone's edits may confuse or upset them. Whenever other users message you on your talk page, please take the time to respond to their concerns; accountability is important. For most users who message you, the tone and quality of your answer will permanently influence their opinion about Wikipedia in general.
- Because the plain default rollback link does not provide any explanatory edit summary, it must not be used to revert good faith contributions, even if these contributions are disruptive. Take the time to write a proper summary whenever you're dealing with a lack of neutrality or verifiability; a short explanation like "
[[WP:NPOV|not neutral]]
" or "[[WP:INTREF|Please provide a citation]]
" is helpful. - Rollback may never be used to edit war, which you'll notice to be surprisingly tempting in genuine content disputes. Please especially keep the three-revert rule in mind. If you see others edit warring, please file a report at WP:ANEW. The most helpful essay I've ever seen is WP:DISCFAIL; it is especially important for those who review content regularly.
- If you encounter private information or threats of physical harm during your patrols, please quickly use Special:EmailUser/Oversight or Special:EmailUser/Emergency; ideally bookmark these pages now. See WP:OS and WP:EMERGENCY for details. If you're regularly patrolling recent changes, you will need both contacts sooner or later, and you'll be happy about the bookmarks.
- Use common sense.
To try rollback for the first time, you may like to make an edit to WP:Sandbox, and another one, and another one, and then revert the row with one click. 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 trouble or have any questions about rollback. Thank you for your time and work in cleaning up Wikipedia. Happy editing!
Best regards,

Hello
[edit]Your notice is requested towards this who uses different names and titles having special interest in POV pushing at certain articles. He and this person are same. His earlier ids were blocked. Just see editing pattern here and here. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Editonlineforpassion (talk • contribs) 16:49, 26 March 2022 (UTC)
- Editonlineforpassion. Thanks for reaching out to me, but unfortunately I am very young to deal with Sockpupets now, since you have reached out to me for help, I have tried to search for experienced SPI clerks and discovered Tamzin has good heads on their shoulder for SPI. I would like to request Tamzin to deal with it. Let's see. Dove's talk (talk) 17:43, 26 March 2022 (UTC)
- Thanks for the ping, Dove's talk. @Editonlineforpassion: I'm not sure what I'm supposed to be looking at here. The first and third diff you linked are the same (and are of a long series of edits made after one by Shadowwarrior) and the second is just Shadowwarrior's edits. You haven't linked to any edits by any other users to compare to. Looking at GrandAdmiralThrawn's edits, I do see some similarities, but you're going to need to give more concrete evidence to prove sockpuppetry. Furthermore, GrandAdmiralThrawn has not edited in almost a year, and we generally do not block people for policy violations that have already stopped on their own. You mentioned past accounts that had been blocked; could you please say which accounts those are? -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (she/they) 18:55, 26 March 2022 (UTC)
- Thank you very much Tamzin for your quick response, Editonlineforpassion, can you please assist Tamzin with more concrete evidence? Dove's talk (talk) 21:11, 26 March 2022 (UTC)
- Tamzin, after much time devotion, i found this account was blocked which edited this article. The same article was edited in the same manner by Shadowwarrior8. The shadow warrior8/GrandAdmiralThrawn123 and Ip 2409:4064:40E:7580:246D:58B2:BAEE:BABE are same user who edits by his mobile. He edits pages specially Wahabism, Ahle Hadees, Salafism and pushes his POV blatantly. Editonlineforpassion (talk) 15:25, 27 March 2022 (UTC)
- @Editonlineforpassion: What is the similarity that you're identifying between [1] and [2]? -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (she/they) 04:49, 28 March 2022 (UTC)
- Editonlineforpassion Will you please explain your concerns more prolifically to Tamzin? Dove's talk (talk) 19:45, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
- I am little busy will give detailed reply after few days only but if you will see his edits you will see he is same person from these ids and has a pattern to support wahabism, Salafism and Ahle Hadith movements and to remove anything against such missions. One has to go into history of these pages. He edits by mobile that is common thing in all ids. Editonlineforpassion (talk) 09:28, 31 March 2022 (UTC)

[edit]Special:Contributions/Libra Justin? Not sure what to make of it. Cheers Adakiko (talk) 09:36, 28 March 2022 (UTC)
- Adakiko, final warning given to Libra Justin, will observe their edits for some time, if they stopped then it will be okay, otherwise will move to WP:AIV. Dove's talk (talk) 09:43, 28 March 2022 (UTC)

Sdrqaz (talk) 14:17, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
- Sdrqaz. Just want to confirm if it is needed to provide edit summaries in obvious vandalism too? Like this. Dove's talk (talk) 14:55, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
- That is fine; no need for edit summaries there
. Sdrqaz (talk) 15:00, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
- Thank you for clarification Sdrqaz. Dove's talk (talk) 15:02, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
- @Sdrqaz: Hi Sdrqaz. Hope you are doing well. I would like to learn New Page Patrolling so that I can help in reviewing new pages in future alongside my counter Vandalism work. I will be happy if you enroll me in your NPP training program as your student. Would you be willing to train me as a NPP reviewer? Many thanks. Dove's talk (talk) 09:53, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
- Hello, Dove's talk. Given that I didn't go through the NPP school myself before I became a new page patroller and learned things as I went along, I'm afraid I don't feel comfortable guiding editors through the school. I would advise you to ask some of the people listed at the NPP training program instead. Sorry about this. Sdrqaz (talk) 13:42, 16 April 2022 (UTC)

[edit]Hello -- I removed a duplicate paragraph. that paragraph is the same as what's in the Philanthropy paragraph. People are making incorrect edits to her page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BetsyMann312 (talk • contribs) 20:19, 29 April 2022 (UTC)
- No, you had removed other references too in your previous edits. If you want to make substantial edits please discuss it first on article's talk page. I have removed that duplicate paragraph. Also please sign your comments by using four tildes (~). Happy editing. Dove's talk (talk) 20:26, 29 April 2022 (UTC)

- 68.43.229.90 your edits were disruptive as it involves removal of sources without adequately explaining why despite reverts. Hope admin will look into your case soon. Also please sign your comments by using four tildes

Thank you. Dove's talk (talk) 18:23, 1 May 2022 (UTC)- PAVLOV Do you think any of those edit by 68.43... was prolific? I am not sure. Please help me in understanding this atypical case. Dove's talk (talk) 19:11, 1 May 2022 (UTC)
- They are definitly not productive, but stopped after final warns given by us, so there's two way to go.
- The first way is leave it alone.
- The second way is go to WP:AN3 to report them.
- Which is your decision? I prefer the former one. PAVLOV (talk) 19:14, 1 May 2022 (UTC)
- Yes, I agreed with your preference. Thank you for your help. Dove's talk (talk) 19:17, 1 May 2022 (UTC)

- Yes, I agreed with your preference. Thank you for your help. Dove's talk (talk) 19:17, 1 May 2022 (UTC)
- But the latter one also seemed useful, so it's up to you. PAVLOV (talk) 19:16, 1 May 2022 (UTC)
