Warning editors

Hi, thanks for working to revert vandalism! Please make sure that when you undo vandalism you also warn the user on their talk page. Twinkle can hep you do this. Thanks, Pickersgill-Cunliffe (talk) 10:03, 21 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for letting me know. Should I even warn IPs as they are mostly only single use accounts? –MrBenjo (talk) 16:41, 21 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it's best to always do it, no matter the type of account. Pickersgill-Cunliffe (talk) 16:47, 21 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Was a bit confused as I normally edit on dewiki, where we usually dont message IPs. But I got it. Thanks again, –MrBenjo (talk) 16:49, 21 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

March 2024

Hi MrBenjo! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of Stephen Berkoff several times. The impulse to undo an edit you disagree with is understandable, but I wanted to make sure you're aware that the edit warring policy disallows repeated reversions even if they are justifiable.

All editors are expected to discuss content disputes on article talk pages to try to reach consensus. If you are unable to agree at Talk:Steven Berkoff, please use one of the dispute resolution options to seek input from others. Using this approach instead of reverting can help you avoid getting drawn into an edit war. Thank you. Personhumanperson (talk) 13:06, 26 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Well, obvious vandalism. I was just waiting for the user to be blocked. But thanks for letting me know, –MrBenjo (talk) 13:09, 26 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

+rollback

Hi MrBenjo,

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.

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,
