This user has asked for Wikipedians to give him/her feedback at an editor review. You may comment on his/her edits at Misplaced Pages:Editor review/Floating Boat. |
Floating Boat is taking a short wikibreak to get ready for exams and will be back on Misplaced Pages once the exams are over. |
Welcome to my talk page! Please start a new section at the bottom of the page; it is standard practice to do so and when I get a new messages banner I will check the bottom rather than the top of the page. Alternatively, you can click here to start a new section.

MOTDs (This space for rent)
You may have noticed over the past few days that the MOTD that you link to on your user page has simply displayed a red link. This is due to the fact that not enough people are reviewing pending MOTDs here. Please help us keep the MOTD template alive and simply go and review a few of the MOTDs in the list. That way we can have a real MOTD in the future rather than re-using (This space for rent). Any help would be appreciated! –pjoef (talk • contribs) 16:09, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
March 2012 MOTD's award for helping the project in a difficult time
The MOTD Barnstar | ||
The MOTD Barnstar is awarded to AndieM13 for her invaluable contribution to our project, which was experiencing a period of extreme scarcity. Thank you from Motto of the day. –pjoef (talk • contribs) 10:59, 13 March 2012 (UTC) |
Additional note: Hoping that you feel comfortable with us, we hope and desire that you will want to continue contributing to our/your project. I personally think that if many of us contribute, then about ten minutes per week, by reviewing the existing nominations, and eventually adding new nominations, should be more than enough to get the project going! Once again, thank you from your Motto of the day. –pjoef (talk • contribs) 10:59, 13 March 2012 (UTC)
Adoption
Hey! Still up for adoption? I am happy to help you settle in! I see you are involved in a project already, which is good. Anyways, drop me a note if you are still interested! Kinkreet 02:49, 18 March 2012 (UTC)

Talkback
I already had Twinkle installed, but I'm not sure exactly what I can do with it. Oddly enough, I don't remember seeing the Talkback button before :/
- A wise man once said, if one can utilize Twinkle, one can rule the world. When you are reading an article, and you feel it doesn't look like a complete Misplaced Pages article, you can use it to tag the page with maintenance tag; why don't you try that with Special:NewPages, a lot of these pages need maintenance tags. If you have already done that, then can you tell me what you want to learn? I can point you in the right direction (Misplaced Pages is pretty vast). Peace x Kinkreet 16:36, 19 March 2012 (UTC)

Your recent edits
Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Misplaced Pages pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button or located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment.

Rollback
Hello, this is just to let you know that I've granted you Rollback rights. Please also read the additional note I left at Misplaced Pages:Requests for permissions/Rollback#User:AndieM. 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 Misplaced Pages:Rollback feature to get to know the workings of the feature
- You can test Rollback at Misplaced Pages: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.

Speedy deletion declined: User:Jweston1
Hello AndieM, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of User:Jweston1, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Clearly not vandalism, this is a user making test edits on their own userpage. You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you. -- Lear's Fool 13:51, 28 March 2012 (UTC)
- That's all right. Sorry for the trouble. AndieM (Am I behaving?) 14:33, 28 March 2012 (UTC)
- No worries. It's good to see new editors trying their hand at new-page patrolling, just make sure you take your time while you're learning. Please feel free to hit me up on my talkpage if you have any questions whatsoever. -- Lear's Fool 14:43, 28 March 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for the welcome
Thank you. --Zawadska (talk) 04:49, 29 March 2012 (UTC)
- You're welcome! Just tell me on my talk page if you have any problems or are unsure of something. AndieM (Am I behaving?) 05:55, 29 March 2012 (UTC)
speedy deletion
Hello, I tagged Gireesh chemrakadan for speedy deletion A7 because the user who created is also by the name User:Gireesh chemrakadan and he has also removed your tag. By the way sorry for any trouble. Happy editing. Solomon7968 (talk) 06:38, 29 March 2012 (UTC)
- It's all right. I guess it just meets both criteria then. The user contested the deletion because he didn't understand the criteria and I left him a note. AndieM (Am I behaving?) 06:40, 29 March 2012 (UTC)
You good?
Hey AndieM, seems like you've been quite busy on WP, is everything OK? Need a hand with anything? Kinkreet 19:16, 5 April 2012 (UTC)
- I'm doing really well. At the beginning I wasn't sure what I would do on WP but I think I've found my calling in fighting vandalism. Thank you for your help! AndieM (Am I behaving?) 15:48, 9 April 2012 (UTC)

The Costa Report
Hi Andie, Thank you for your help with moving user: The Costa Report to The Costa Report (an article). I have created it as an article but now I don't know how to get rid of the user one. I chose The Costa Report as a user name because I thought I was naming the page. I would be happy to change that too but I don't know how. Suggestions? Thanks again!

- It looks like you have been blocked for having an inappropriate username. Just create a new account; there should be no problem with that. AndieM (Am I behaving?) 18:49, 13 April 2012 (UTC)
Speedy deletion declined
Hi AndieM. Thank you for your work on patrolling new pages and tagging for speedy deletion. I'm just letting you know that I declined your deletion request for Skyflite london, a page that you tagged for speedy deletion, under criterion A3 because the criterion you used or the reason you gave does not cover this kind of page. because author blanked the page, it qualifies for G2 Please take a moment to look at the suggested tasks for patrollers and review the criteria for speedy deletion. Particularly, the section covering non-criteria. Such pages are best tagged with proposed deletion, proposed deletion for biographies of living persons, or sent to the appropriate deletion discussion. Yasht101 11:37, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
- I was unaware it had been blanked. Thank you! AndieM (Am I behaving?) 11:39, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
- Ah..Its okay, it happens to me also many times. Please take care of one thing before tagging pages; View the history, because, there might also be a vandal work by someone which makes the article qualify for CSD or PROD or AfD though in reality it isn't. It happens rarely so no need for all articles, but in case of a article qualifying for A1 or A3, always do it. I saw your edits. They are really good, and yes, you are behaving well. Happy patrolling! Yasht101 11:45, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
Thanks for the corrections and....um, Kind words :)
