I'm Ryan, and I've been a Wikipedia editor since August 2007. In addition to being active on the English Wikipedia, I participate on other projects. See my Meta user page for more information. If you have any questions about anything, feel free to contact me.

@Jdcomix:Do not leave a username warning on a user's talk page and also immediately report them here. Do one or the other, and not both simultaneously.jlwoodwa (talk) 03:58, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
Being discussed with the user. 50/50 on the name, and their only edit to date is in good faith. Let's await response to the userpage message. Euryalus (talk) 07:04, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
Aydoh8, which edits show promotional editing for something with this name? Cullen328 (talk) 06:38, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
Page has been deleted, so I can't get the diffs. Aydoh8[contribs] 06:39, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
Not a blatant violation of the username policy. Deleted edits are a cut and paste from an academic study and don't relate to this username. -- Euryalus (talk) 06:59, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
Aydoh8 A "promotional username" usually means a username that is that of a cause or business, like "OfficialWalmartAccount" or just "Walmart" or "KamalaforPresident2024". The account also(unless blatantly obvious) should have made edits related to whatever it is they are promoting. 331dot (talk) 08:23, 3 August 2024 (UTC)

I've been patrolling recent changes for a while now, using Twinkle to warn members. I have over 200 mainspace edits, and I'm extended confirmed with over 700 edits total. I've also been doing NPP for a little too. I'd like to use rollback for more advanced tools such as Huggle and AntiVandal. Thanks, Lordseriouspig 06:14, 26 July 2024 (UTC)
I see that you are failing to consistently warn editors when you revert their edits. Why? It's important to leave a notification for every revert you make. Are you aware that we have tools such as Twinkle or Ultraviolet that make this extremely easy? -Fastily 10:34, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
I reviewed your contributions from last month and found these within seconds: 1, 2, 3. I'll repeat what I said above: it's important to leave a notification for every revert you make. Are you aware that we have tools such as Twinkle or Ultraviolet that make this extremely easy? -Fastily 08:03, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
I’m unsure why I forgot to add a warning for those, @Fastily, considering Twinkle automatically opens the talk page, but I usually warn members, and tools like Anti-vandal or Huggle would probable negate me forgetting warns. Thanks, Lordseriouspig 10:00, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
No worries, thanks for your honesty. Please ensure that you are always leaving warnings. I can't stress enough the importance of notbiting the newcomers; if you find yourself reverting good faith edits, then it's especially important to notify the editor. If you don't want to leave a template warning, that's completely fine, but you do need to leave a talk page message explaining why you reverted the edit. Moving forward, could you please make a promise to leave warnings/notifications for every revert? -Fastily 23:02, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
No problem, @Fastily I’ll definitely try to leave warnings for every revert I make. Thanks, Lordseriouspig 02:57, 2 August 2024 (UTC)
Thanks for confirming Done -Fastily 11:10, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
I've been recent changes patrolling on and off with Twinkle, and more recently Ultraviolet, for years now, and would like to try Huggle's more advanced tools. I have over 1.4k mainspace edits, no history of edit warring, and consistently and appropriately notify editors whose changes I revert. P1(she/her, talk/contribs) 04:18, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
Not done I noticed you make a handful of edits, and then drop off for months at a time. While I appreciate your enthusiasm, I'd like to see you spend at least a month consistently patrolling RecentChanges (Twinkle & Ultraviolet can help with that) before reapplying. Also, please ensure that you are always warning editors when you revert their edits. Thanks, Fastily 08:03, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
I am aware, after reading others' requests, that warning users after edits must be done every single time. While there are moments in which I have forgot to do this in the past, I will ensure to make it a consistency going forward. LR.127 (talk) 00:54, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
Great, thanks for confirming. Could you please now go some RC patrol in which you demonstrate how you will be notifying all users? -Fastily 11:10, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
