Hello, I'm Serols. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions —specifically this edit to Mount Fuji— because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Help Desk. Thanks. Serols (talk) 14:53, 4 February 2019 (UTC)

Sorry

Hello ElongatedMusketeer, sorry mistyped. Best regards --Serols (talk) 14:55, 4 February 2019 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Oakland Raiders, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. General Ization ^Talk 05:01, 6 February 2019 (UTC)

Rollback granted

Hi ElongatedMusketeer. 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! ~Swarm~ {talk} 22:18, 8 February 2019 (UTC)

Chetak (rocket) moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Chetak (rocket), does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. I was unable to find more reliable coverage of the Chetak rocket online, and am left with the impression that you may be better off instead writing an article about Bellatrix Aerospace, and including a section on the Chetak. I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. _signed,Rosguill ^talk 22:23, 1 April 2019 (UTC)

Trouted

Whack!

You've been whacked with a wet trout.

Your submission at Articles for creation: 1820 United States presidential election in Virginia (September 16)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by CASSIOPEIA was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:1820 United States presidential election in Virginia and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:1820 United States presidential election in Virginia, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Pointless edits

Hello EM. Could you stop making edits like this or this. They serve no purpose in terms of fixing any issues, and are generally regarded as a waste of server capacity. Thanks, Number 5 7 19:08, 16 September 2019 (UTC)

Sorry Number 57, was a bit bored and had nothing better to do. I'll direct my time at editing that is a bit more constructive now. ElongatedMusketeer (talk) 20:38, 16 September 2019 (UTC)

No problem. I generally find that if you're a bit bored, Category:Clean-up categories (starting with the oldest) is a great place to start finding something useful to do. Cheers, Number 5 7 21:07, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
