WikiProject New Brunswick Invitation

edit

Hi there Arstao, thank you for your contributions to New Brunswick-related articles! As a fellow Wikipedia user based in the province, I would like to offer an invitation to WP:WikiProject New Brunswick, a WikiProject dedicated to improving Wikipedia’s coverage of New Brunswick. Thanks again. B3251 (talk) 14:58, 19 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hey there B3251,
I appreciate you offering this invitation, and would absolutely love to be apart of WP:WikiProject New Brunswick! I've always been fascinated by New Brunswick's history, so I think this would be an amazing thing to be apart of. I'll put my name in the members list and go from there. Thanks again!~ (talk) 15:39, 19 August 2023 (UTC)
Awesome :) glad to welcome a new member. If you need any help with NB-related articles or may need help looking something up, feel free to notify me. I have access to the Telegraph-Journal's newspaper archive so I'm always happy to help. B3251 (talk) 15:45, 19 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
Will do! Thank you for the help, I greatly appreciate it. :) Arstao (talk) 15:46, 19 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

+rollback

edit
 

Hi Arstao,

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,
