Your request for rollback

edit
 

Hi NGPriest. After reviewing your request for rollback, I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

  • Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
  • 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:New admin school/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 troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Swarm X 17:17, 25 October 2011 (UTC)Reply

Robert Fulton

edit

Hi Excirial,

What is wrong with my edit on Robert Fulton? NGPriest was here :D (talk with NGPriest :D) 19:24, 28 October 2011 (UTC)Reply

It's obviously a revert/revert conflict. -- Finlay McWalterTalk 19:26, 28 October 2011 (UTC)Reply
From what i can see we reverted at nearly the exact same instance. Because of that it seems you reverted the edit we both intended to revert, while my own edit managed to revert yours. Since WP:Huggle automatically sends a warning to the user it reverts, you got incorrectly bombarded with a warning, while my edit managed to reinstate the vandalism - Sorry for that. I reinstated the correct version of the page, and i removed the warning from your talk page. And before i forget - Happy editing! :) Excirial (Contact me,Contribs) 19:33, 28 October 2011 (UTC)Reply
How do i get rid of this? http://i.joeylau.com/2011/10/User_information_for_'NGPriest'-29_05.30.37.png NGPriest was here :D (talk with NGPriest :D) 19:31, 28 October 2011 (UTC)Reply
If i remember well Huggle reads the history of a talk page to determine earlier blocks, so removing the warning itself won't stop it from showing on that log. It is nothing to be worried about though - the only difference is that your edits will be flagged on top of the Huggle list rather then being placed on the bottom. After a while you will become automatically white listed, so your edits won't be added to the list anymore. And when that happends, Huggle actually gives a warning if it tries to revert you.

Best in European Music??

edit

So in your world Lady Gaga, Justin Beiber, Big Bang, Selena Gomez et al constitute the 'Best in European Music'. It doesn't take much to guess that you've never actually been to Europe. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.125.240.101 (talk) 23:41, 9 November 2011 (UTC)Reply

What has 'American Pop Music' got to do with MTV Europe Music Awards ?:
NGPriest was here :D (talk with NGPriest :D) 07:04, 10 November 2011 (UTC)Reply
Look, you might have sight problems, and I could forgive you for that. But it doesn't take a retard to see that the main winners of this years awards, and last years awards and all the awards before that have been American, the page says it for itself. The voting is based upon iphone apps and online submissions, that quite frankly any american or asian could download, making it hardly a representation of the European music scene. So classifying the page as the 'Best in European Music' is about as close to a celebration of 'lack of factness' that you could get. You're supposed to be a moderator, not some kind of Goebellian propagandist pushing a corporate line, just because your fellow S.E. asians all voted 17 times for a pop group 'Big bang' that quite frankly no one in 'Europe' has heard of. At what point is any of that a 'celebration of European Music'.

What horrifies me the most, is that people like yourself persist the myopic cancer that makes this site totally unrepresentative of reality. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 31.185.239.189 (talk) 08:15, 10 November 2011 (UTC)Reply

Food, Inc.

Why did you revert my fix to the link on the Food, Inc. page? Did you actually look at the change? Now the page is broken again. 85.164.9.71 (talk) 10:45, 12 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

So sorry about that. I thought label was the correct word to use.
I've undid my change, so it should work now :D:
NGPriest was here :D (talk with NGPriest :D) 10:52, 12 December 2011 (UTC)Reply
Yeah, that's understandable if you only looked at the diff and not the page or the link. Thank you. 85.164.9.71 (talk) 10:56, 12 December 2011 (UTC)Reply
NGPriest apologized for the incident and has undid the mistake, so move on. --Bryce (talk | contribs) 10:59, 12 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

Hi NeilN and Gogo_Dodo?
I was curious if all edits by Binthaneya could be reverted, if it needs to be done manually, so be it?
