Please comment on the contributions and not the contributors. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Hey, now, no need to get grouchy and rip into the folks who wanna play with the article. We all know this is one that is going to be messed with. Stay civil, keep cool.

About the Stupidity and Annoyance articles

Thanks for your message. I am sure that the above user who criticised you had the best intentions in the world, but I am not sure I agree with him, or with his interpretation of the policies. There is nothing wrong with a light-hearted warning within a remark, and I believe you would be right in reinstating your warning. However, if you or he still have doubts, we all might want to ask for a third opinion. Happy editing, Goochelaar (talk) 08:04, 16 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference

edit

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer be able to have them marked as minor by default. For more information on what a minor edit is, see WP:MINOR or feel to get in touch.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 20:02, 13 March 2011 (UTC)Reply
