It still reads as very promotional. See WP:NPOV. As it is, it looks more like a sales pitch than an encyclopedia article. Frood 23:23, 3 July 2015 (UTC)

St. Patrick High School

Hi there. I made the recent edit to the St. Patrick High School page. I was a graduate of the 2005 class and crack smoking began to run rampant towards the end of 2003. The class of 2004 in particular was especially bad. The administration began conducting routine locker searches and often found crack contraband. Thanks for your time. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.27.106.119 (talk) 20:52, 3 July 2015 (UTC)

Unless you can provide citation of that, it doesn't belong on Wikipedia. Frood 23:23, 3 July 2015 (UTC)

July 2015

Hello Frood. Thanks for patrolling new pages – it's a very important task! I'm just letting you know, however, that you shouldn't tag pages as lacking context (CSD A1), or content (CSD A3), moments after they are created, as you did at Drive My Hole. It's best to wait at least 10–15 minutes for more content to be added if the page is very short, and the articles should not be marked as patrolled. Tagging such pages in a very short space of time may drive away well-meaning contributors, which is not good for Wikipedia. Attack pages (G10), blatant nonsense (G1), copyright violations (G12) and pure vandalism/blatant hoaxes (G3) should of course be tagged and deleted immediately. Thanks. --Non-Dropframe _talk 20:59, 4 July 2015 (UTC)

Leave me alone, Frood — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.5.226.254 (talk) 20:00, 6 July 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for keeping an eye on the recent vandalism at Modern Paganism.

Reverting unwanted edits

Hi . Just a quick note to say that when reverting vandalism and other such nonsense you should check the history of the article to ensure the previous edits are good too... When you perform the revert you're saying that the restored page is in a 'good state', which clearly wasn't the case here! (Both due to the missing curly brace and that the DoB info added by the previous IP editors should have been removed). Cheers, Nikthestunned 13:35, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

Account Creation Team

Are you still interested in joining the Account Creation Team? If so, please complete your registration per the instructions in the Guide. Thanks, DocTree (ʞlɐʇ·ʇuoɔ) WER 06:26, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

I am. diff, and I've read, and will comply with, both the privacy policy and ACC policy. Frood 14:24, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

Thanks. The huge backlog has now been knocked down. The ACC Team now gets most account requests handled in minutes or hours rather than days. You may have to hang around IRC and act quickly to reserve new requests for an account. I recommend that you request a wikimedia cloak as described here to use on IRC. The ACC Team's IRC channel is restricted to preserve privacy of the requesters and security of the system. There are usually experienced ACC team members on the channel to answer questions and help with borderline or difficult requests. I'm about to approve your request but it may take up to a day or two before a tool root gets your ID bit set in the tool. Once that bit is set, you will be able to log into the system. Start out slow and handle each request carefully. Welcome to the team! DocTree (ʞlɐʇ·ʇuoɔ) WER 20:06, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

PS: Tool root was on IRC when you were approved so ID bit is set. You can log in at any time. Take care, DocTree (ʞlɐʇ·ʇuoɔ) WER 20:08, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

ACC tool access request approved

Frood, thank you for your interest in the account creation process. I have verified that you are identified to the Wikimedia Foundation and approved your request.

You may now access the interface here pending a tool root marking your account as identified in the tool database. Before you begin handling requests, please ensure you have read and understood the account creation guide and username policy to familiarise yourself with the process.

Please subscribe yourself to the private ACC mailing list following the instructions on that page. I also advise that you also join us on IRC #wikipedia-en-accounts ^connect where a bot informs us when new account requests come in and you can get real time advice on how to handle requests.

Please note failure to correctly assess requests will result in suspension of tool access. Account creation is not a race, and each one should be handled diligently and thoroughly. Releasing personally identifying information (such as IP and email addresses), whether intentionally or unintentionally, is treated very seriously and will generally result in immediate suspension.

Currently you are allowed to create up to six accounts per day, and you won't be able to create an account with a similar name to that of another user; these requests are marked as "Flagged user needed" on the interface. However, if you reach the limit frequently, you can request the account creator permission at WP:PERM/ACC.

Please don't hesitate to get in touch with me if you have any questions. Thank you for participating in the account creation process. Again welcome!

Account Creator

After reviewing your request for the "account creator" permission, I have enabled the flag on your account. Keep in mind these things:

• The account creator right removes the limit on the maximum number of new accounts that can be created in a 24-hour period.
• The account creator right is not a status symbol. If it remains unused, it is likely to be removed. Abuse of the account creator right will result in its removal by an administrator.

If you no longer require the right, let me know, or ask any other administrator. Drop a note if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of the account creator right. Happy editing! Swarm ^{we ♥ our hive} 19:52, 21 July 2015 (UTC)
