Perth, Scotland

Hi! Thank you for removing an unreliable source from Perth, Scotland, it's much appreciated. In future, could you also add a citation needed tag where the ref is removed? It's just to make it clear what information in the paragraph is sourced so it doesn't seem like he ref after it covers the information. Thanks again! Suonii180 (talk) 17:31, 3 June 2021 (UTC)

@Suonii180: I will do that from now on! Thank you for letting me know! Jack Reynolds (talk to me | email me) 18:12, 3 June 2021 (UTC)

WP:A9 tagging

You tagged two drafts with the above tag. First, the A series of speedy deletion criteria are only available in article space. Second, even if the page were an article, A9 would not apply because the two prongs are not satisfied. Please do not use tags you don't understand.--Bbb23 (talk) 18:42, 7 June 2021 (UTC)

Bbb23, Understood. Jack Reynolds (talk to me | email me) 15:13, 9 June 2021 (UTC)

Perhaps you should stop tagging completely. You have tagged three drafts per WP:G1, none of which qualified. Your WP:G11 tag was fine, and I deleted the drafts on that basis, but I'm concerned that you have now demonstrated ignorance of two tags.--Bbb23 (talk) 17:42, 9 June 2021 (UTC)

Bbb23: Yes, tagging is not my forte, so I shall do less of it and be careful of when I do so next. But, this does not mean that I will stop tagging altogether. I will, however, be more careful with it. I have been doing through drafts. I'm sorry for the inconvenience. I shall stick to what I'm best at: sleeping, listening to music, and editing about music!

Misstatements of policy

I pinged you at User talk:31.41.45.190 to point out your misstatement about profanity in edit summaries, but I also took a look at your recent contributions and noticed this diff, where you said that an editor could not remove a speedy deletion notification. That's incorrect. An editor may not remove speedy deletion tags on their talk page, MfD tags, declined unblock requests, nor {{shared IP}} and similar; but they're allowed to remove a notification about another page being tagged. Editors are even allowed to remove warning templates, although for cases of ongoing vandalism or such this rule is sometimes ignored and the templates are restored. -- Tamzin (she/they) | o toki tawa mi. 19:32, 10 June 2021 (UTC)

Vacation

I will be on vacation in from around June 30 to around August 29. I will not edit Wikipedia during that time. If you have anything for me to do before I leave, please let me know. StarshipSLS (Talk), (My Contributions) 22:03, 18 June 2021 (UTC)

@StarshipSLS: I do not have anything for you to do! I hope you have an awesome vacation! Jack Reynolds (talk to me | email me) 14:09, 20 June 2021 (UTC)

When do you think I will be ready to adopt a user?StarshipSLS (Talk), (My Contributions) 15:17, 21 June 2021 (UTC)

@StarshipSLS: That one is hard to tell. I’d suggest reaching out to an admin and ask him or her about your question. Jack Reynolds (talk to me | email me) 13:49, 25 June 2021 (UTC)

Since I'll be leaving for vacation in about 5 days (give or take), I'll wait until I return which will be in the end of August. Talk to you then!StarshipSLS (Talk), (My Contributions) 15:03, 25 June 2021 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

	The Original Barnstar
	Thank you so much JackReynoldsADogOwner for helping me on Wikipedia through the adoption process. Unfortunately, I feel it is time for me to spread my wings. I really enjoyed being adopted by you and had an overall great time. Really, thank you, Jack. I couldn't have done anything without you. FredModulars (talk) 06:28, 21 June 2021 (UTC)

@FredModulars: I totally get! It was an honor of being your adopter! I hope you are well! As always, my door is always open for questions and such! I’m glad that you’re spreading your wings. Jack Reynolds (talk to me | email me) 13:46, 25 June 2021 (UTC)
