Hey @Fork99,

I did the edit you requested 4 years ago.

It was the Y set conversion back to regular V sets. However I couldn't find a good source. MrActiniuM ^{(talk) (contribs)} 10:46, 9 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! @Fork99. Thank you for correcting the errors in the information I added to the "Australia" article. Thanks. Happy editing! (V12U253 (talk) 06:54, 30 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Albert Street railway station, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Lift.

Note to self: fixed. Fork99 (talk) 20:39, 4 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Greetings! Thank you for speedying a redirect that was a recent page move vandalism. I also appreciate how it happened that I was notified, and I appreciate that you reverted the notification. I understand checkbox errors, they happen. The content of the particular vandalism (and notice) led me to seek revdel. Please feel free to initiate that on your own in the future if you find this particular word at hand involved in vandalism-related twinkling or checkbox misfires. Especially if there's indication the non-authoring notified editor is from or in North America. I don't mean to browbeat at all. I just can't think of any comparably distressing word to have in a usertalk history. Thanks again for your revert, for all you do, and for your time reading this. Cheers!

@JFHJr: funny thing, I only stumbled upon that user's edits because of the ANI thread next to another one I was involved in at the time. I'm from Australia, and that word isn't widely used here in a local context, and I only know its connotation because of North American popular culture. Thanks for revdeling it, I wouldn't have thought to have done that. Fork99 (talk) 23:46, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I'm aware of like two words that North Americans wouldn't recognize as biggies but Australians would want revdel'd. There might be more than what I know. I can totally understand. Thanks again! JFHJr (㊟) 23:58, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. You're invited to participate in The World Destubathon. We're aiming to destub a lot of articles and also improve longer stale articles. It will be held from Monday June 16 - Sunday July 13. There is over $3300 going into it, with $500 the top prize. If you are interested in winning something to save you money in buying books for future content, or just see it as a good editathon opportunity to see a lot of articles improved for subjects which interest you, sign up on the page in the participants section if interested. Even if you can only manage a few articles they would be very much appreciated and help towards making the content produced as diverse and broad as possible!♦ Dr. Blofeld 13:15, 15 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
