Trouted

[edit]

Whack!

You've been whacked with a wet trout.

Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know that you did something silly.

Reviewer granted

[edit]

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged revisions, underwent a two-month trial which ended on 15 August 2010. Its continued use is still being discussed by the community, you are free to participate in such discussions. Many articles still have pending changes protection applied, however, and the ability to review pending changes continues to be of use.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under level 1 pending changes and edits made by non-reviewers to level 2 pending changes protected articles (usually high traffic articles). Pending changes was applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:PendingChanges.

For the guideline on reviewing, see Wikipedia:Reviewing. Being granted reviewer rights doesn't grant you status nor change how you can edit articles even with pending changes. The general help page on pending changes can be found here, and the general policy for the trial can be found here.

If you do not want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Dabomb87 (talk) 03:04, 3 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for granting me this right! Hydriz (talk) 07:38, 3 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Hydriz, I have done these two edits to accept that redirect request as Boeing 77W does refer to the Boeing 777-300ER, which is on the Boeing 777 article. For further reference, see 77L, which refers to Boeing 777-200LR, also part of the Boeing 777 family - TBloemink (talk) 13:25, 6 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sure. Thanks anyway. Hydriz (talk) 14:53, 6 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Visual Editor

[edit]

Hey Hydriz, I want to thank you for taking the time to give me a message on my Talk page. I do feel like there are many things that could be done to make Wikipedia better. One suggestion I would make is to incorporate real-time editing. A user should see the changes of another user in real time. This is just a suggestion, and it may be hard to implement the technology on the server, but it is worth a shot. I would also want discussion to be more fluid and dynamic. For example, it would be nice to have a threaded discussion board. These are just some of the many ideas I have that can allow users to easily edit Wikipedia pages. I looked at the Visual Editor Sandbox and was impressed at how simpler the user interface looks. Thank you for your time. --TJRana (talk) 12:25, 30 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, real time editing has been suggested to the developers of the software. They are currently figuring out a way to do so, but of course we would like to start off with the interface before the interaction first. Enjoy your stay in Wikipedia! --Hydriz (talk) 13:11, 30 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for extending a hand

Teahouse updates

[edit]

Hi Hydriz! A few updates for you about Wikipedia:Teahouse, since you're one of our awesome Teahouse hosts!:

  • The host lounge is open! Please take time to review the materials in the space and start contributing to the how-to pages. Your input is valuable. Not only is it great practice to get our minds thinking like hosts, but, you can also provide easy to understand instructions and sound bites for fellow hosts!
  • Join the conversation by participating on the host lounge talk pages[1][2]. We also have an IRC channel now for hosts to get to know one another, develop your skills, and eventually the channel will serve as an additional help space for new editors!
  • To visit the IRC channel: #wikipedia-teahouse connect (Feel free to ask me for help if you're having trouble connecting!)
  • Let new editors get to know you by creating your Teahouse profile. Contribute your profile on the host page at the Teahouse! This serves as a fun way for new editors to get to know the people behind the usernames. You can post a photograph of yourself or an avatar, add a quote about yourself or something you enjoy, and share projects and activities you participate on wiki (with wikilinks).

Very exciting things are taking place, and we'll be opening the Teahouse no later than Monday. Feel free to ping me on or off wiki, and I can't wait to work with you to welcome new editors with a warm cup of tea :) SarahStierch (talk) 03:26, 24 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Hydriz! Great news: The Teahouse is open for business! We're ready to start inviting new users, answering questions and inspiring one another. If you haven't already taken a look at the links provided in the most recent Teahouse update, posted on your talk page, please do! Don't forget to add yourself to the Host page if you haven't already. What's next? Inviting hosts and reporting your invitation information.

  • Please familiarize yourself with this brief rundown of your responsibilities as a Teahouse host.
  • Use the invitation guide to invite new users and report your invites.
  • Make sure you have the Q&A page on your watch page and dive in when answers get asked! Feel free to ask your own questions - either seeking help or inspiring others to share their projects, ideas and inspiration for editing.

Teahouse checkin!

[edit]

Hi Hydriz! We haven't seen you at the Teahouse yet since it opened and I just wanted to drop by and say hi and see if you were still interested in participating in the pilot -if so, great! And if not, that's fine too, it'd just be great to know your status (or if you're busy and will be helping out soon!)! We need hosts to be helping invite and continue to answer questions on the Q&A page! Let me know if you're still interested in participating in the pilot, and hopefully we'll see you there :) Sarah (talk) 23:42, 8 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
