December 2019
Hello, I'm Wtmitchell. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions —specifically this edit to Christmas Eve—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. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 11:51, 5 December 2019 (UTC)
- @Wtmitchell: Hi, I believe there has been a misunderstanding, I believe you have wrongfully reverted my edit as Christmas is not 45 days and neither is it observed by "Alahu Kahbar". Thanks for your understanding. EdisonLin27 (Message Me! • 📜) 11:56, 5 December 2019 (UTC)
- @Wtmitchell: I reviewed the edit, and yes: Edison was reverting IP vandalism. ωικιωαrrιorᑫᑫ1ᑫ 16:35, 6 December 2019 (UTC)
Rollback granted
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e7/Wikipedia_Rollbacker.svg/130px-Wikipedia_Rollbacker.svg.png)
Hi EdisonLin27. 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! Lofty abyss 11:28, 15 December 2019 (UTC)
Congratulations from WP:STiki!

Help
I've notified a few other MilHistory project members. There is a discussion going on at the Easter Rising talk page about whether the rising should be considered part of the Great War in the infobox because it was significantly influenced by it. Can you please contribute? 98.221.136.220 (talk) 20:54, 20 December 2019 (UTC)
