Welcome![change source]

Some cookies to welcome you!

Welcome to Wikipedia, YIEWI! I'm Rubbish computer and an active editor here. Thank you for your changes. I just wanted to say hi and welcome you to Wikipedia! If you have any questions check out Wikipedia:Questions, or send me a message on my talk page. I like to help new people, so don't be afraid to leave a message! I hope you like Wikipedia and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Rubbish computer (Ping me or leave a message on my User talk) 14:05, 29 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This user is an experienced user, so did not need a welcome message. Please remember that some users blank their talk page for a clean up. MathXplore (talk) 13:02, 6 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Either type of ping works, but it only works if you enter in 4 tildes ~~~~ on the same edit. Lights and freedom (talk) 19:23, 8 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion[change source]

If a page is obviously nonsense or vandalism and has no good history, it's better to use {{QD}} instead of {{RfD}}. You can see the quick deletion criteria at WP:QD. Lights and freedom (talk) 19:51, 8 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Lights and freedom It's my first time I've tagged and accidentally clicked the RfD ... Thanks for let me know. YIEWI talk 19:56, 8 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your change to the current request for bureaucrat rights[change source]

Please don't change what another posted, as you did to my post with this edit. It is not required to use a template for voting. -- Auntof6 (talk) 13:59, 20 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Auntof6 Hey, I think here are not any Short desc. Helper as like english wikipedia in the gadget section ? YIEWI talk 20:34, 22 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

We don't use the short descriptions here. -- Auntof6 (talk) 21:12, 22 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
By the way, if you would like to see a list of other things that are different here, you can look at this list that I maintain. The list itself is not a policy or guideline, but it links to some relevant policies and guidelines. If you have any questions about it, feel free to ask. -- Auntof6 (talk) 21:15, 22 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Level 4im warnings[change source]

Hi YIEWI, thanks for reverting that vandalism earlier. Just be aware that once a level 4 "last" warning is given you don't need to give a level 4im "only" warning if they continue. If a vandal continues after a level 4 warning, please report them to WP:VIP. Thanks :) --Ferien (talk) 18:02, 26 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Ferien Thanks for let me know, I'll keep in mind next time. YIEWI talk 18:09, 26 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @YIEWI, You probably know I reverted one of your recent edits, I am sorry, I didn't want to do it but my finger accidently pressed the rollback button and it triggered. Sorry. Koqkpa talk 06:43, 27 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

(talk page stalker) But I thought you would have the rollback confirmation option is active at asking in Simple Talk. Are you using your mobile phone or PC? Dibyojyotilet's chat 06:46, 27 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Koqkpa It's ok I can understand but you should be more careful next time. YIEWI talk 06:57, 27 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Dibyojyoti, I use mobile. I have my rollback confirmation enabled but sometimes it works and sometimes doesn't, sometimes I accidently click the rollback button, and it reverts it without the popup for confirmation, I don't know why it is happening and I also don't know how to fix it. Koqkpa talk 07:03, 27 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Koqkpa, what mode your were using? Desktop mode or simply mobile mode. Dibyojyotilet's chat 07:39, 27 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Dibyojyoti, I use desktop mode for HotCat, Twinkle and Reset talk mostly. I mostly, and always use the mobile mode for creating articles, expanding articles, editing, reverting vandalism and other bad edits. Well I use simply the mobile mode. Koqkpa talk 08:51, 27 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Okay @YIEWI, I will be more careful next time. Koqkpa talk 07:03, 27 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

December 2022[change source]

Before adding a category to an article, as you did to "San Antonio Express-News", please make sure that the subject of the article really belongs in the category you have chosen. Categories that are not suitable will be removed from articles. If you are not sure what category an article belongs in, leave a message on the article's talk page. Thank you. MathXplore (talk) 06:40, 29 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Rollback granted[change source]

Hi YIEWI, I've given you rollback as you requested it. Remember to only use rollback for obvious vandalism, and not good faith edits. If you'd like to test it out, please go here. Thank you for your contributions! :) --Ferien (talk) 14:47, 30 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Ferien Thanks for granting me the permission. :-D YIEWI talk 19:10, 30 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Mann Act...[change source]

Hello, as you have seen I have translated (part of) the EnWP article.I have laso seen that you had made one change, while I was fixing references. I still think some of the sections that I copied are still a little diffucult to understand, but given they contain direct quotes, and references, sipmlifying them is not that easy. Are you experienced in this, and do you want to try (ideally without adding more from the EnWP article)? Eptalon (talk) 20:23, 1 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Eptalon Not that experienced but I can try. For now can I request for Patrollers rights ? YIEWI talk 20:13, 2 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Talk header[change source]

Hey YIEWI, please keep in mind that talk pages shouldn't be created just to add the talk header template. They should only be created to add discussion. Thanks, --Ferien (talk) 19:25, 20 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Ferien: Thanks for let me know and I'll keep in mind. YIEWI talk 19:27, 20 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, thank you for your helpful changes. I had to decline a nomination you made under WP:QD#A4. If you want to learn more about when this criterion can be used, this page on the English Wikipedia may help you. Thanks, --IWI (talk) 13:49, 25 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Some pointers needed[change source]

Hello, thank you for the welcome message on my user talk. Although I don't think it was needed, since I have already been an active editor on en wiki.


I had question regarding the dark mode here on Simple Wiki. I tried asking the same on WP:AN but I received no reply. Could you tell me if there's any solution for dark mode for smartphone editors? Rejoy2003 (talk) 13:58, 1 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Rejoy2003: I've checked the Preferences but I did not see any option for dark mode and I think it's not available in here. If your are facing any problem you can turn on the dark mode option of your browser which you are using now. YIEWI talk 12:18, 2 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Also are the articles created here have their own Google Knowledge panel? Rejoy2003 (talk) 12:21, 2 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Rejoy2003: I have not much idea but I think Google basically catches articles from main enwiki but if have not in main enwiki then it catches articles from simplewiki. :-D YIEWI talk 12:34, 2 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please don't remove unblock requests on other users' talk pages as you did on User talk:2001:FB1:157:6C6F:F4C9:F9C4:7362:1CC8. Just leave them for admins to handle. Thanks. -- Auntof6 (talk) 16:08, 17 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
