Pending changes reviewer granted

Hello. Your account has been granted the "pending changes reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on pages protected by pending changes. The list of articles awaiting review is located at Special:PendingChanges, while the list of articles that have pending changes protection turned on is located at Special:StablePages.

Being granted reviewer rights neither grants you status nor changes how you can edit articles. If you do not want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time.

Rollback granted

Hi DDMS123. After reviewing your request, I have temporarily enabled rollback on your account until 2023-04-02. Please keep the following things in mind while using rollback:

  • Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle or RedWarn.
  • Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
  • Rollback should never be used to edit war.
  • If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
  • Use common sense.

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into trouble or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 14:02, 1 March 2023 (UTC)

This is for a one-month trial. Come and see me in three weeks or so and I'll consider granting it permanently. But while I'm here, note that we don't normally welcome new accounts before they make their first edit, especially not en masse. Thanks, HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 14:05, 1 March 2023 (UTC)

Invitation to WP:CIII

Hello. Just in case you missed it, there's a task force up at WP:CIII which you may be interested in. There is, of course, no obligation to participate, but if you do, it is very much appreciated.

A barnstar for you!

The Royalty and Nobility Barnstar
I noticed all the "Thanks" you gave me for my recent edits and I checked your user page and talk page history to see that you have never been properly thanked. I am awarding you this barnstar for all your efforts in royal-related articles. You are constantly working and editing, and Wikipedia needs to be grateful that it has you working hard on royal pages. Congratulations! - Therealscorp1an (talk) 10:03, 17 April 2023 (UTC)
@Therealscorp1an: Thank you very much. - DDMS123 (talk) 18:59, 17 April 2023 (UTC)

Thanks

I would like to thank you and Grayfell for helping to combat the vandalism that was done to my edit of the May 13 page. Rorr404 (talk) 23:51, 13 May 2023 (UTC)

@Rorr404 - You're welcome. DDMS123 (talk) 03:17, 14 May 2023 (UTC)

Reverting - sometimes it is better not to use rollback

The old Wikipedia:Rollback policy said that "rollback should only be used to revert vandalism and should never be used to revert good faith edits or in content disputes." Wikipedia:Rollback is not exactly the same, but says something similar. Though Rahil1610's edits were bad edits, it is debatable whether they were good or bad faith edits. I think a case could probably be made for them being good faith edits. So it would be best not to use rollback when he/she repeats them. Your position is defensible - you placed helpful messages on Rahil1610's talk page.-- Toddy1 (talk) 07:20, 14 May 2023 (UTC)

@Toddy1 - Sorry about that, you’re correct about those guidelines. For me, it’s kind of a habit as I encounter a lot of vandalism on Wikipedia, so I habitually press the rollback button. In some other cases, I’m too lazy and use rollback as it is faster. If Rahil1610 repeats his edits, I’ll use undo next time in line with the guidelines. DDMS123 (talk) 08:39, 14 May 2023 (UTC)

Reverting Capitalism edit

Hello, egos aside, you've reverted my edit over Capitalism stating that my edit had already been reverted, however I've talked with the one who had reverted my edit and explained me what was wrong, which I think I corrected MDCCCC (talk) 20:20, 17 May 2023 (UTC)

Chiming in since I was involved. MDCCCC, I think you should attribute the claim to Piketty like I proposed on my talk page. I'm also not sure what an "international taxation system" is supposed to be? Before restoring the edit, the best way forward would be to start a discussion on the article talk page on whether or how to implement the material. Throast {{ping}} me! (talk | contribs) 23:54, 17 May 2023 (UTC)
I agree with @Throast. DDMS123 (talk) 01:49, 18 May 2023 (UTC)

Other British monarch requested move discussions currently taking place

Since you recently participated in the Charles III requested move discussion, I thought you might like to know that there are two other discussions currently going on about other British monarch article titles here and here. Cheers. Rreagan007 (talk) 22:26, 30 July 2023 (UTC)

Requested move discussion

There is currently a Request Move discussion about William IV. Since you participated in the previous move discussion involving William IV, I thought you might want to know about this one. Cheers. Rreagan007 (talk) 19:17, 21 September 2023 (UTC)

Talk-header

Please stop adding the talk-header template to every single page, the template itself makes it clear that 'There is no mandate to have this template appear on the 7,095,157+ potential talk pages. This template should not be indiscriminately added to pre-existing talk pages, especially not with bots. That said, the template should not be removed from talk pages simply because it is there.'

Even if this template should be on every talk page that would be a task for a bot. Traumnovelle (talk) 09:28, 24 November 2025 (UTC)
