Hello. Regarding the recent revert you made: you may already know about them, but you might find Wikipedia:Template messages/User talk namespace useful. After a revert, these can be placed on the user's talk page to let them know you considered their edit inappropriate, and also direct new users towards the sandbox. They can also be used to give a stern warning to a vandal when they've been previously warned. Thank you. —George8211 / T 19:03, 6 March 2015 (UTC)
- I was aware of the {{uw-vandalism1}} template, along with the other level vandalism templates, but that is one wide selection. Thank you for giving me that link. :) McDonald of Kindness (talk) 21:26, 6 March 2015 (UTC)
- If you can wait until tomorrow, you'll be autoconfirmed, which means you can use a gadget called Twinkle that makes it a hell of a lot easier. —George8211 / T 21:30, 6 March 2015 (UTC)
- Wow. Thanks. McDonald of Kindness (talk) 21:34, 6 March 2015 (UTC)

Copyvio on Royal Palaces of Abomey
Hi. Have you looked into the copyright violation problem on this article? If so, what is your conclusion? Cheers. 24.130.172.5 (talk) 19:37, 7 March 2015 (UTC)
- Someone will look at it. For now, though, you have been mentioned on the Edit warring noticeboard for your edit warring and three revert rule violation. McDonald of Kindness (talk) 19:51, 7 March 2015 (UTC)
Care to explain your revert of a constructive edit by a new contributor here? StringTheory11 (t • c) 20:41, 10 March 2015 (UTC)
The editor did not provide an adequate source for their edit to the article. A source is required for any edits. I think you are missing something more than me.McDonald of Kindness (talk) 20:44, 10 March 2015 (UTC)- Scratch that. In this case, I'd worry more about consensus. McDonald of Kindness (talk) 20:47, 10 March 2015 (UTC)
- It is a rather uncontentious edit to replace the words "Solar System" with the word "Sun", since all it is is minor copyediting. I would be a little more careful with Twinkle, if I were you. StringTheory11 (t • c) 21:02, 10 March 2015 (UTC)
- It wasn't a rollback for vandalism, nor was it a rollback for AGF (I have no idea what that means), but yes, I will take more caution when using the tool. McDonald of Kindness (talk) 21:06, 10 March 2015 (UTC)
- Sounds good. StringTheory11 (t • c) 21:09, 10 March 2015 (UTC)

Appeal message
how do I get a speedy delete on this page? It's About me and I never did it. I don't meet the criteria for a page, don't want one, and the person who created it appears to be associated with porn sites. It could be the same people/persons who at one point hacked My twitter and Facebook and caused me all sorts of trouble — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rmarcano (talk • contribs)
- I put an AfD tag on the page for now. We'll see how this goes. McDonald of Kindness (talk) 02:07, 13 March 2015 (UTC)
- Comment. It appears that the article actually references a different Ray Marcano, who is very probably unrelated to User:Rmarcano. I'm not sure if the subject satisfies WP:Notability requirements, and it might be deleted anyway; but the references check out, and the journalist appears to be a real person. Possibly make a new article for Ray Marcano (boxer) and a disambiguating link?--Robin Thayler (talk) 08:25, 13 March 2015 (UTC)
>I don't qualify for the notability requirements. Can this just be removed on that alone? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rmarcano (talk • contribs) Rmarcano (talk) 17:54, 13 March 2015 (UTC) >Did that previous message get through?Rmarcano (talk) 17:54, 13 March 2015 (UTC)
- Yes. It did get through. McDonald of Kindness (talk) 17:58, 13 March 2015 (UTC)
thank you. How long does the process take? This is really causing me a lot of angst — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rmarcano (talk • contribs)

ray Marcano article
I think there's some confusion here. The article is about me, which is why I've been trying to get it removed. I don't meet the Wikipedia notability requirements at all. For clarity, I'm the journalist. Rmarcano (talk) 12:30, 14 March 2015 (UTC)
Comment from a user
Please, respect the history! If you want to delete the history, delete the page of allameh tabatabai management school page. I posted a brief explanation on the talk page, respect to it User shj369 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shj369 (talk • contribs) 20:03, 22 March 2015 (UTC)
- @Shj369: Please respect the deletion guidelines. The subject in your article did not appear notable. Besides, we don't need articles on almost everything about the university. McDonald of Kindness (talk • contributions) 20:19, 22 March 2015 (UTC)
Respect the history, your reaction is like a cyber terrorism. User shj369 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shj369 (talk • contribs) 20:51, 22 March 2015 (UTC)
- No it is not. As your article was redirected, you should be learning, more than having a psychotic reaction at it. McDonald of Kindness (talk • contributions) 21:01, 22 March 2015 (UTC)
Chen Long statistics ???
I have correct all mistakes in Chen Longs statistics and you revert this edits. Did you read this at all?? Derorgmas (talk) 20:33, 27 March 2015 (UTC)
- I am about to ask you practically the same thing. Did you read my explanation? You should provide explanations for your edits. Also, source your content. There are a lot of policies on Wikipedia. Try reading at least some of them before making your next contribution(s). McDonald of Kindness (talk • contributions) 20:40, 27 March 2015 (UTC)
