editThanks for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. Thanks. -- Please take a look at Wikipedia:Deletion policy for the reasons why your article Addison dent was marked for deletion. Good luck and enjoy Wikipedia! Gblaz 01:31, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Hey. It's unacceptable to tag an article for {{empty}} within one minute of its creation. [1] You did not give the author an opportunity to expand it at all. Look at the article now - is it still a CSD candidate? Such patrolling is extremely unhelpful and deters newcomers. Do review WP:BITE. Also, you're not allowed to remove warnings from your talk page. I am not sure where exactly it is stated in policy, but I am certain that you're not allowed to do it. I've unblanked this talk page. - CrazyRussian talk/contribs/email 06:05, 7 May 2006 (UTC)
Speedy Deletion
editHello. Thank you for tagging the article, Sterg, but try to find a reason, as it helps the creator know what was wrong with their article. I replaced your {db} with {db-nonsense}. If you have any questions, ask me on my talk page. Thank you. --♫Twinkler4♫ 23:49, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

New deal for page patrollers
editHi Addison1203,
In order to better control the quality of new pages, keep out the spam, and welcome the genuine newbies, the current system we introduced in 2011 is being updated and improved. The documentation and tutorials have also been revised and given a facelift. Most importantly a new user group New Page Reviewer has been created.
Under the new rule, you may find that you are temporarily unable to mark new pages as reviewed. However, this is nothing to worry about - most current experienced patrollers are being accorded the the new right without the need to apply, and if you have significant previous experience of patrolling new pages, we strongly encourage you to apply for the new right as soon as possible - we need all the help we can get, and we are now providing a dynamic, supportive environment for your work.
Find out more about this exiting new user right now at New Page Reviewers and be sure to read the new tutorial before applying. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 04:28, 13 November 2016 (UTC)
