Disambiguation link notification for September 9

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited George Takei, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page TBS. 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) 09:26, 9 September 2014 (UTC)

Rollbacker

I have granted rollback rights to your account. After a review of some of your contributions, I believe you can be trusted to use rollback for its intended usage of reverting vandalism, and that you will not abuse it by reverting good-faith edits or to revert-war. For information on rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback and Wikipedia:Rollback feature. If you do not want rollback, contact me and I will remove it. Good luck and thanks. 18:03, 26 January 2015 (UTC)– Gilliam (talk)

Thank you. I was not aware of this feature but now that I've been granted the right to utilize it, rest sssured I will exercise discretion and use it only for its intended purpose.--BrightonC (talk) 00:38, 27 January 2015 (UTC)

May 2015

Hello, I'm Ncmvocalist. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Cell division, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Ncmvocalist (talk) 17:29, 22 May 2015 (UTC)

I intended only to remove a random (and unsourced) statement added by an IP user who was seemingly test-editing. If my edit did anything other than that, it was accidental.--BrightonC (talk) 17:33, 22 May 2015 (UTC)

Major edit/Under Construction Template

Hello! I was just doing a major edit on the United States presidential election, 2016 article. I put up a "major edit" template at the top of the article to warn other editors to wait to make their edits so that I could finish mine. That was we could avoid an edit conflict... I can't tell you how much work could have been lost had there been a conflict. I did see that you made an edit while I was making mine. Because they were in different sections, there was no conflict. It's really not a big deal at all and I'm not upset or anything but I would ask that you look for those templates before making changes. Thank you! PrairieKid (talk) 00:35, 6 July 2015 (UTC)

Sorry for the lateness in responding, but I didn't see the message when it posted, as I logged out immediately after making the aforementioned edit. I did see the template, but I figured that since my edit did not alter the content in any way, it wouldn't be a big deal. I have to admit I didn't think about the potential consequences of an edit conflict. I will now take that into account for future reference, so thanks for the message. If you don't mind a suggestion, it is probably best to copy the content or post it in your sandbox first before adding a considerable amount of content to any article. That way, you insure yourself against lost content resulting from an edit conflict or technical foul-up. Cheers!--BrightonC (talk) 17:57, 18 July 2015 (UTC)
