Rollback granted
[edit]Hi ClaudineChionh. After reviewing your request, I have enabled rollback on your account. Please keep the following things in mind while using rollback:
- Being granted rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle or Ultraviolet. It just adds a [Rollback] button next to a page's latest live revision - that's all. It does not grant you any additional "status" on Wikipedia, nor does it change how Wikipedia policies apply to you.
- Rollback should be used to revert clear and unambiguous cases of vandalism only. Never use rollback to revert good faith edits.
- Rollback should never be used to edit war, and it should never be used in a content-related dispute to restore the page to your preferred revision. If rollback is abused or used for this purpose or any other inappropriate purpose, the rights will be revoked.
- Use common sense. If you're not sure about something, ask!
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 trouble or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Extraordinary Writ (talk) 08:29, 16 September 2024 (UTC)
- Extraordinary Writ: Thank you! I will be careful. — ClaudineChionh (she/her · talk · contribs · email) 09:49, 16 September 2024 (UTC)

Sister soul?
[edit]Cara Claudine, Two phrases from your users' page sounded so very familiar that I cannot resist posting a small personal word of harmony:
- I keep coming back because humanity keeps finding new ways to spread ignorance and misinformation.
That's very true and very sad. Commercial greed and political power strife are driving forces, and both must be considered and treated as evil. It is a citizen's duty to detect and defy such misuse of WP, and of the www in general.
- I identify as a WikiGnome and find more satisfaction in making improvements to existing articles than creating new ones.
Myself have given up trying to create new articles, having too often been thwarted by a certain category of WP civil servants who prefer turning down well-meant effort to improving articles that so deserve.
Very kindly from far-away Portugal, Jan olieslagers (talk) 17:09, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
- Jan olieslagers: Sadly, some areas of WP do get quite bitey. I hope you can keep contributing on topics you care about! — ClaudineChionh (she/her · talk · contribs · email) 07:21, 12 October 2024 (UTC)
Hi
[edit]I can't believe that you've been editing even longer than me and I've only just stumbled across your account Jimfbleak - talk to me? 19:09, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
- Jimfbleak: Longer, but not as prolific! I just nibble at the edges. — ClaudineChionh (she/her · talk · contribs · email) 07:19, 12 October 2024 (UTC)
Hey
[edit]Hey Claudine. Just letting you know that you’re super awesome at editing Wikipedia. Thanks for all you do!!! 69.122.9.87 (talk) 01:26, 15 October 2024 (UTC)
- Hi Claudine. It’s me - 69.122.9.87. Haha. That’s not my name. That was my IP address yesterday. I had been having a hard time logging into Wikipedia. But I did it now. Go me! (TranpleZone isn’t my real name either.)
- Anyway, I just want to thank you again for being such an awesome editor. You explained to me why my entry was flagged as vandalism. Oops! My bad! I was just trying to make an article interesting. Thanks for your awesome feedback! So helpful! You rock! Go you! Thanks again.
- -Adam (AKA TranpleZone, AKA 69.122.9.87)
- PS Do you know what an IP address is? I sure don’t. Guess I could look it up on WIKIPEDIA!!! Hahahaha! TrampleZone (talk) 03:24, 16 October 2024 (UTC)
- Hey Claudine. Have you read my messages? I want to make sure you know that I think you’re the best Wikipedia editor! The best! Is there a contest for that? I’ll vote for you 20x. Would that be enough for you to win? I would vote 100x. Maybe I’d do 99 votes for you and 1 for someone else so I don’t look too biased. Just tell me where and when, and I’ll do it. Thanks again!

- TrampleZone: I have read your messages; I just don't know what you're looking for. There is no contest. All I ask of Wikipedia editors is that they understand and follow the policies and guidelines when updating content or interacting with other editors. Have a good day. — ClaudineChionh (she/her · talk · contribs · email) 02:43, 17 October 2024 (UTC)
- Hi Claudine. Thank you for your reply! I'm not looking for anything! I'm sorry for giving you the impression that I was. I'm just trying to have fun on Wikipedia. This is such a great resource. But sometimes I wish it could be a little more fun. Like why can't we make harmless jokes on here?
- But actually, now that you've asked, I really could use your help... I have a theory. But it's more like the theory of gravity, where it's just so obviously true. Wait - gravity is a law, not a theory, right? But you know what I mean, right? This thing is so obviously true, you'd have to be a dumb dumb not to agree...
- Check out the article for It's Raining. It's Pouring: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/It's_Raining%2C_It's_Pouring. (Maybe that's where you corrected my *** OOPS *** act of vandalism - I can't remember - I vandalized a couple pages that night)....
- You know that nursery rhyme, right?
- It's Raining. It's Pouring.
- The Old Man is Snoring.
- He bumped his head
- And went to bed
- And didn't get up in the morning.
- It's a bunch of non-sequiturs UNLESS "It's raining. It's pouring" means he was out getting drunk. It's raining = The beer was flowing. It's pouring = REALLY FLOWING. Then he bumps his head because why? HE'S DRUNK! he goes into a deep sleep, so he's snoring because HE'S DRUNK. And he didn't get up in the morning BECAUSE HE'S STILL DRUNK!!! Duh! Like double triple quadruple duh! As obvious as the earth is round.
- So I keep putting that theory on the page, but I don't have a source other than my big giant brain. And it stays there for a while until some dumb dumb (not you - that was something similar but different!!!) removes it because I don't have a source. But there's another interpretation they keep in because some dopey neuroscientist had a theory that makes ZERO sense. That doofus says the old man is dead. Dude - he's snoring - he's not dead.
- This is my quest in life. Some people want to cure cancer. Others want to end homelessness. I just want to teach earth's 7 billion human inhabitants that that the old man was hammered.
- Can you please help me get my theory the proper citation to stay in there? I mean why can't I be considered a subject area expert worthy of citation? I could give a Ted Talk or do a podcast on it. Bonus points if you can get the scientist's nonsense out of there as well.
- Will you, Claudine Chionh - Wikipedia editor superstar, join me on my quest? if so, I will vote for you in that contest. Oh wait - there's no contest. I'll make a contest for you!
- You're the best!!!

Central Powers
[edit]I think I have addressed the issues on the Central Powers article and I would like to know if you are able to review it again. History6042 (talk) 20:49, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
- History6042: Great! I am actually about to head off on holiday for a few days and will probably be offline for much of the time. I think you can renominate it and any interested reviewer can pick it up if I don't get to it first. No promises about timeliness though; when I get back from holiday I will be going almost straight into a very busy period at work. — ClaudineChionh (she/her · talk · contribs · email) 22:36, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
- Okay, thank you. History6042 (talk) 23:52, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
