Archiving talk-page threads
If Miszabot misses talk-page threads, it's usually because of malformed or missing timestamps on one of the posts. If stale threads are sticking around, check them carefully and add timestamps (or add "(UTC)" on timestamps that are missing it), and they'll be auto-archived within 24 hours. This is usually less work than doing the archiving manually. --Christopher Thomas (talk) 15:15, 14 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I think the creator of HMS Montreal 1761 should have just accepted the article, and then proceed to rewrite it afterwards, as he obviously did when he created HMS Montreal, since it includes content from the AFC from its very first edit. 13:05, 20 September 2010 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Before saving your changes to an article, please provide an edit summary, which you forgot to do before saving your recent edit to Taishanese people. Doing so helps everyone to understand the intention of your edit (and prevents legitimate edits from being mistaken for vandalism). It is also helpful to users reading the edit history of the page. Thank you. Trafford09 (talk) 09:48, 11 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
If this is a shared IP address, and you didn't make the edit, consider creating an account for yourself so you can avoid further irrelevant notices.
I've experienced that some people who revert changes don't bother to read the edit summary when I leave one anyway, or can't understand Wikipedia terms used on them. As the edit history of most articles feature mostly blank edit summaries, it seems standard practice to not leave one. 76.66.200.95 (talk) 09:58, 11 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
That is not at all true. People who are able to revert changes using the rollback function must be experienced editors—I have never come across a reviewer who does not check the edit summary before reverting an edit. It is standard practice to use an edit summary when editing Wikipedia, since it is helpful not only for patrollers, but also to keep an accurate log of changes to an article. If your attitude is such that you cannot edit articles without leaving an edit summary because you think that nobody reads them, and most are left blank anyway (which they are not), then perhaps you should not be a Wikipedian?

I do leave edit summaries, but not always. But I have encountered many times, people reverting, or rolling back changes with edit summaries, and even talk page explainations, where they obviously haven't read them. As the policy for rollback indicates what kinds of edits are supposed to be used on with the rollback feature, I've seen that that isn't followed all that closely by some rollbackers, using it for things that a revert is supposed to be used for. 76.66.200.95 (talk) 10:38, 11 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
They're kind of identical, in that the info will still be cleared. I'm not sure if the two proposals can go hand-in-hand, but I saw it being done before; I'll see what others say. In any case, I think the article should not stay. ANGCHENRUIWP:MSE♨06:13, 12 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Well, deletion or being renamed is fine with me. Keeping it where it is, is what I would not prefer, even were it to be merged, since should someone want to revive such an article, it should be at the properly named location, not at a badly named one, as such the edit history should be moved. If it is deleted, that would solve the problem, as there would be no redirect or edit history to preserve. I have no strong opinion on whether it should be deleted or not. 76.66.200.95 (talk) 06:19, 12 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Hello 76.66.200.95. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Hârâci, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: prof t tennis player is probably just about enough for A7, but will BLPPROD. Thank you. GedUK08:35, 13 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

On 20 November 2010, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article UTIAS Snowbird, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that the UTIAS Snowbird is the first ornithopter powered by human muscles to be capable of straight-and-level flight?
