New deal for page patrollers

Hi Anon126,

In order to better control the quality of new pages, keep out the spam, and welcome the genuine newbies, the current system we introduced in 2011 is being updated and improved. The documentation and tutorials have also been revised and given a facelift. Most importantly a new user group New Page Reviewer has been created.

Under the new rule, you may find that you are temporarily unable to mark new pages as reviewed. However, this is nothing to worry about - most current experienced patrollers are being accorded the the new right without the need to apply, and if you have significant previous experience of patrolling new pages, we strongly encourage you to apply for the new right as soon as possible - we need all the help we can get, and we are now providing a dynamic, supportive environment for your work.

Find out more about this exiting new user right now at New Page Reviewers and be sure to read the new tutorial before applying. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 04:28, 13 November 2016 (UTC)

Paiper-mache listed at Redirects for discussion

An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect Paiper-mache. Since you had some involvement with the Paiper-mache redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you have not already done so. Si Trew (talk) 14:34, 10 December 2016 (UTC)

Rollback granted

Hi Anon126. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", 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: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 troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Widr (talk) 20:07, 7 February 2018 (UTC)

Thank you for uploading the Super Bowl LIII Logo yesterday I thank you for it. And Now we can now worry about the Super Bowl LIV Logo when will talk about and when you upload it for next year. 68.102.39.189 (talk) 16:35, 8 February 2018 (UTC)

“Trump” and flatulence

I don’t know if you have ping notifications enabled, but your signature says to notify you of responses, so: I made an edit request at Talk:Trump that is directly related to the request you granted at Talk:Flatulence#Semi-protected edit request on 21 February 2018. —67.14.236.50 (talk) 00:06, 23 February 2018 (UTC)

Which was granted as I typed this, so never mind! —67.14.236.50 (talk) 00:07, 23 February 2018 (UTC)

Algorithms cannot be part of the real number line

Hi, Yeah, You are right on the money!!! No real number line can contain any algorithms only the float outputs of the algorithms, which in the case of PI is about 5 billion digits strong, in the case of 1/7 is endless. My point was this the number line depicted on the page shows PI, e, sqrt(2), gamma as part of the number line. That is not possible. Algorithms do supply valid floats to fill the number line ( with duplicates !!!! ) but they are not part of the real number line. I did not pull this out of thin air as it is the iron rule. One practical aspect of the no algorithms rule is that some of the procedures which define and execute algorithms consists of dozens of pages of computer code. Nobody would ever dream of putting that on any number line, and if they did they would have to rename it the GIANT BOOK OF ALGORITHMS LINE

The no-algorithms rule should be made unequivocally by the Wiki editor who created a page, or somebody who knows how to do it. (Not I !!! ) 1. Should remove pictures of PI, e, sqrt(2) and any algorithm even 1/3 and so on

   (yes 1/3 is an algorithm where it yields an endless stream of 0.3, 0.33, 0.333, ...

2.a Should state explicitly that the real number line contains nothing but

   integers (0-9, no leading zeros ) and 

2.b Valid floating point numbers or what I call them floats

   ( digits 0-9  + decimal point in any valid sequence and mix)

Once again I really appreciate your response and understanding the issue. Good night,

Counting floats, please keep conversations on the same page. I have copied your message to the mathematics reference desk and left a response there. Anon126 (notify me of responses! / talk / contribs) 04:58, 3 March 2018 (UTC)

Answer to your questions about 101 Ranch Oil Company photo:

• Who took the photo, and when?: Not sure as it was in my family library (101 Ranch Oil Co founder, McCaskey’s family), and from 1915. • When was this photo first released to the public? Not needed, It is dated 1951. And came from my family library.• Is there an online source where this photo may be found? NO. (same answers as above).

Hi, Jcmcapital. It's been a while. While I appreciate your response, I have to say that I'm no longer very active on Wikipedia, so I've reopened the discussion at Media copyright questions (heading "Follow-up to years-old discussion about photos from 101 Ranch Oil Company").
