Please do not use styles that are unusual, inappropriate or difficult to understand in articles, as you did in Kuantan. There is a Manual of Style, and edits should not deliberately go against it without special reason. Thank you. — ᴀʟʀᴇᴀᴅʏ ʙᴏʀᴇᴅ ʜᴜʜ? 10:30, 20 September 2014 (UTC)

WikiProject assessment tags for talk pages
Thank you for your recent articles, including Anna Stera-Kustusz, which I read with interest. When you create a new article, can you add the WikiProject assessment templates to the talk of that article? See the talk page of the article I mentioned for an example of what I mean. Usually it is very simple, you just add something like {{WikiProject Keyword}} to the article's talk, with keyword replaced by the associated WikiProject (ex. if it's a biography article, you would use WikiProject Biography; if it's a United States article, you would use WikiProject United States, and so on). You do not have to rate the article if you do not want to, others will do it eventually. Those templates are very useful, as they bring the articles to a WikiProject attention, and allow them to start tracking the articles through Wikipedia:Article alerts and other tools. For example, WikiProject Poland relies on such templates to generate listings such as Article Alerts, Popular Pages, Quality and Importance Matrix and the Cleanup Listing. Thanks to them, WikiProject members are more easily able to defend your work from deletion, or simply help try to improve it further. Feel free to ask me any questions if you'd like more information about using those talk page templates. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 08:33, 22 September 2014 (UTC) |
counter-vandlism
This edit of yours was ineffective. 50.200.48.254 (talk · contribs · WHOIS) vandalized and then reverted themselves. Your edit restored their vandalism.
If you're interested in stopping vandalism, continue editing and develop your editing skills and then apply to the Counter-Vandalism Academy. We have trainers that can teach you how to more effectively deal with vandalism. You need to have at least 200 mainspace edits to apply and taking the course is meant for those intending to be long-term contributors. Chris Troutman (talk) 17:54, 25 September 2014 (UTC)
You unjustly accused me of page vandalism on Jerry Speziale. This page had serious issues before my edits, including blatant bias and gross one-sided descriptions, in addition to excessive detail (far more extensive than virtually any other public figure on Wikipedia) inappropriate for a Wikipedia page. My edits removed extemporaneous details, and portrayed a more objective picture of the subject. I left many of his favorable details and stories untouched, but added unfavorable information as well, in the interest of objectivity and truth. All edits included citations to news articles and official court cases. All edits were removed by you; and even worse you added more one-sided information. This is absolutely unacceptable for Wikipedia and your accusation of vandalism is patently false and malicious. Are you more interested in promoting a friend's image with no shame rather than upholding objectivity? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.90.202.67 (talk) 18:46, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for September 26
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Annie Heloise Abel, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Justin Winsor Prize. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 09:19, 26 September 2014 (UTC)

Rollback
Hello, this is just to let you know that I've granted you Rollback rights. Just remember:
- Rollback gives you access to certain scripts, including Huggle and Igloo, some of which can be very powerful, so exercise caution
- Rollback is only for blatant vandalism
- Having Rollback rights does not give you any special status or authority
- Misuse of Rollback can lead to its removal by any administrator
- Please read Help:Reverting and Wikipedia:Rollback feature to get to know the workings of the feature
- You can test Rollback at Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback
- You may wish to display the {{User wikipedia/rollback}} userbox and/or the {{Rollback}} top icon on your user page
- If you have any questions, please do let me know.
HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 00:35, 4 October 2014 (UTC)
Message from Alwoodley
Hi Tymon.r, thanks for editing the Simon Wilson, Politician page. I was getting round to finishing off the edit, but you might have beaten me to it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alwoodley (talk • contribs) 16:44, 5 October 2014 (UTC)
Message from AuAakash9
I have edited the article related to 2014 Asian Games considering your feedback. I have added a few points that are integral to the information about games with valid citations.
October 2014
Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Vegetarianism by country, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. If the reference formatting used by a new user is sub-optimal, please just fix it yourself, rather than reverting adequately sourced additions. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 21:28, 6 October 2014 (UTC)
Hello. The taxa which I moved from this page to 2015 in paleontology (in the edit you reversed) are going to be named in articles that will be published in the journal Historical Biology. However, as [their website] states, there are only 6 issues per volume of this journal, and they only publish one volume per year. The sixth issue of 2014 volume was already published, and none of the articles naming these taxa was published there; so they won't be published this year and presumably will be published in 2015 (or later). 213.158.219.229 (talk) 16:51, 8 October 2014 (UTC)
- Hello unregistered editor making sensible paleontology edits. I have reversed Tymon.r's to 2014 in paleontology.
- Hello Tymon.r. If you continue making blind reverts of constructive edits that included a detailed edit summary, then I will request that your recently granted rollback right be removed. This will be for the purpose of preventing you from doing any further damage using Huggle or any similar tool. I note that this is the second time I have had to warn you regarding problematic edits you made using Huggle. Consider this a level 3 warning. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 22:54, 8 October 2014 (UTC)
Message from Emcgonagill
Hi Tymon.r, thanks for letting me know about the edit you reversed on the Wikipedia:Meetup:Philadelphia/Bryn Mawr College/American Archives Month page. I added the line to distinguish between women in STEM (at the top) and general interest articles. Because the event is supposed to be focused on adding information about women in STEM, I wanted to create a division between high priority/relevant items and optional other tasks for people to pursue, and I plan to add more at the top. I originally played with the idea of having different headers to divide the two types, but I couldn't find a way to make it appear clean and consistent with the other bullet points. If you have an alternative suggestion I would welcome it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Emcgonagill (talk • contribs) 17:55, 8 October 2014 (UTC)
- Hello User:Emcgonagill. I have reversed all edits made by Tymon.r to that page, for the reason indicated in the separate section below. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 23:01, 8 October 2014 (UTC)
October 2014
You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Wikipedia:Meetup:Philadelphia/Bryn Mawr College/American Archives Month. If you use Huggle without knowing where you should use it or what to use it for, or you are not able to use it effectively due to problems you have using it, repeatedly disruptive editing using Huggle by you is indistinguishable from vandalism. Please stop now. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 23:03, 8 October 2014 (UTC)
- Tymon.r statement
Hello, I see you account is banned now, so instead of writing this on your discussion page I write my statement here. I have reverted proper changes, because of pressing improper button. I am very sorry for that, however I think that telling me that I "may be blocked from editing without further warning" is not proper in my case. My changes, even when they were wrong, were made in "good-faith". Tymon.r Do you have any questions? 18:38, 29 May 2015 (UTC)

WP:CUTPASTE move at Indian Nepalese
Hi. If you look at the history here you will see the page was originally at Nepalese people of Indian ancestry and has been there since it was created four years ago. Suddenly today some people are trying to move this page to Indian Nepalese by cutting and pasting the content from Nepalese people of Indian ancestry. This is against Wikipedia policy: WP:CUTPASTE. So I request you to revert your edit to Indian Nepalese and not to jump to conclusions that I am "vandalising". Moving a page to a new title after it's been stable at an existing title for four years should be done by WP:RM, not unilaterally and certainly not by cutting & pasting the content. 58.176.246.42 (talk) 17:22, 2 June 2015 (UTC)
Proposed deletion
You proposed Prepozitii for deletion based on the rationale:
- Foreign language + page seems to be tutorial, not article (Google Translator)
Being in a foreign language is not a valid reason to delete an article. Wikipedia has a pages needing translation process; non-English pages should be tagged with {{notenglish}} and then listed at WP:PNT. However, since you took the time to run this page through Google translate, you should have realized that it was an essay on the topic of prepositions, which subject is already covered in the English Wikipedia at Preposition and postposition, so the article could have been tagged with {{db-a10}}.

Voting at Articles for Deletion
Hi! I noticed you've been voting recently at Articles for Deletion. Thank you for your contributions there! I just have a quick request: while !voting there, it would be great if you followed the format in the first list in WP:AFDFORMAT - specifically, it would be awesome if you a) put the recommendation at the start of your comment (e.g. "Delete becuz blah" instead of "blah blah so Delete") and b) added !votes as part of a bulleted list (using *) instead of indenting them (using ::). This makes it easier for other contributors as well as automated tools to read the discussion. Again, thank you so much! APerson (talk!) 20:42, 3 June 2015 (UTC)

Hi. Just a quick note to say that I have declined this A7 speedy, as notability is asserted in the article. There's an AfD underway, so let us let that run the natural course. Thanks — sparklism hey! 17:08, 5 June 2015 (UTC)
2016 in home video
HI! I deleted that huge amount of that article because it is highly unusual and inaccurate because some of the movies listed there are not even in theatres yet and there's no reliable source to prove these movies coming to home video on a certain day. So, why revert the process? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cineplex (talk • contribs) 19:18, 12 November 2015 (UTC)

Notability of Rebecca Posner
Hi Tymon.r! You tagged Rebecca Posner for notability. As a professor at the University of Oxford she satisfies criteria 5 of WP:NACADEMIC. Just in case you are not aware, in the UK professor is not a job description and only applies to those at the very top of their profession. A professor at Oxford University or Cambridge University would be the equivalent of a distinguished professor in American terminology. I hope this helps, but I'm happy to explain in more depth, Gaia Octavia Agrippa Talk 23:57, 14 January 2017 (UTC)

New Page Reviewer
Hello Tymon.r. Your account has been added to the "New page reviewers
" user group, allowing you to review new pages and mark them as patrolled, tag them for maintenance issues, or in some cases, tag them for deletion. The list of articles awaiting review is located at the New Pages Feed. New page reviewing is a vital function for policing the quality of the encylopedia, if you have not already done so, you must read the new tutorial at New Pages Review, the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the various deletion criteria. If you need more help or wish to discuss the process, please join or start a thread at page reviewer talk.
- URGENT: Please consider helping get the huge backlog (around 15,000 pages) down to a manageable number of pages as soon as possible.
- Be nice to new users - they are often not aware of doing anything wrong.
- You will frequently be asked by users to explain why their page is being deleted - be formal and polite in your approach to them too, even if they are not.
- Don't review a page if you are not sure what to do. Just leave it for another reviewer.
- Remember that quality is quintessential to good patrolling. Take your time to patrol each article, there is no rush. Use the message feature and offer basic advice.
The reviewer right does not change your status or how you can edit articles. If you no longer want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. In case of abuse or persistent inaccuracy of reviewing, the right can be revoked at any time by an administrator. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 05:32, 21 January 2017 (UTC)
