- Thanks for choosing to join the Simple English Wikipedia. We're always looking for new editors! ;) Good luck around here! eurodyne (talk) 04:19, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
- Thank you! //nepaxt 22:24, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
You reverted a reversion of another editor stating it wasn't vandalism. Did you check the user's page? Did you check the block logs? Do you understand what breaking text-source integrity is? I would be happy to help you understand. But please don't revert something if you aren't fully aware of all the circumstances. Right now I'm going to leave this as-is. But if you have any questions, please ask here. Thank you User:Rus793 (talk) 23:47, 10 October 2015 (UTC)
- I checked the revision. The IP was adding information to the article (i.e. books). //nepaxt 21:12, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
Thanks
Thanks for reverting that IP editor who was vandalizing articles about Disney movies. I have blocked the IP again. --Auntof6 (talk) 21:33, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
- No problem. Take care! //nepaxt 21:34, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
Please do not remove quick deletion tags
I noticed that you removed quick deletion templates from several pages, including User:NBA Office/New York Knicks 2014–15 season roster. Please do not remove quick deletion template. Only administrators should remove these templates. If you think a page should be kept, even when it's in userspace like this, you can add the {{wait}} template to it, and explain on the talk page why you think it should be kept. I agree that these pages should not have been deleted, but I just wanted you to know the right way to contest the QD requests. Thanks. --Auntof6 (talk) 23:33, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
- Thank you. //nepaxt 18:42, 13 October 2015 (UTC)
FYI
One of the quick deletion requests you made has been declined because the same page has already been marked for deletion via RfD. The Checker of Kemz Five (Talk to me!) 23:35, 13 October 2015 (UTC)
Changes to Robin Williams
I might be missing something, but what was it in the changes to this article that you thought was vandalism? --Auntof6 (talk) 04:32, 18 October 2015 (UTC)
- Robin Williams wasn't a singer. That was vandalism. //nepaxt 04:56, 18 October 2015 (UTC)
- Actually, he was. He wasn't best known for singing, but he sang in at least one animated movie (Aladdin). --Auntof6 (talk) 05:05, 18 October 2015 (UTC)
- Oh, I forgot about that. Sorry, my mistake. //nepaxt 05:13, 18 October 2015 (UTC)

Why?
Why did you do that? Stewi101015 (talk) 01:51, 20 October 2015 (UTC)
- Talk:Earth science is in order to talk about how to improve Earth science, per article talk page requirements. It is not in order to chat about unrelated material. //nepaxt 01:53, 20 October 2015 (UTC)

Changes to iCarly
The changes made here were made since I don't have rollback permissions and was trying to remove undo all the revisions made by that IP since they were restating information already stated in the previous sentence as well as the fact that said user kept re-adding the changes. For more information, please see the revision history. Nigel757 (talk) 23:03, 18 November 2015 (UTC)
how was that vandalism? Krett12 (talk) 14:57, 28 November 2015 (UTC)
- The editor jumbled up the words, then he left out "During". The run is officially called "Oklahoma Land Run." //nepaxt 15:00, 28 November 2015 (UTC)

- I'm sorry. I don't know what you are saying. If you are interested, we have Ukranian Wikipedia. Cheers. //nepaxt 01:54, 3 January 2016 (UTC)
- Despite the character-set used, the above is not Ukranian, according to Google translate (which was unable to translate a single word). Etamni | ✉ | ✓ 05:09, 3 January 2016 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker) I tried Google translate, too. Just because it couldn't translate it, that doesn't mean it isn't Ukrainian. Sometimes Google Translate just can't translate things. --Auntof6 (talk) 05:45, 3 January 2016 (UTC)
- @Auntof6: True. Meanwhile, if you select only the second sentence, and ask Google to translate it (using automatic language recognition), Google will suggest it is Serbian. If you manually select Russian, one word of the first sentence will translate as "star" (although I think that is a coincidence). I've tried manually selecting several languages that use this script, but it didn't come up with anything at all that is meaningful. Based on the user's other writings and spellings -- and contraction use -- the language above may be Trollish, but Google won't translate that! Etamni | ✉ | ✓ 09:53, 3 January 2016 (UTC)
- FYI there is a note on their talk page asking if their sister can help them edit, since she speaks better English. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 166.198.100.183 (talk • contribs)

I thought it was Russian at first, because of the characters. I tried with Google translate. It didn't translate correctly. Then I tried Ukrainian, and Ukrainian translated more than Russian did. So, I assumed it was Ukranian. But, it could be Serbian. I am not familiar with Eastern European languages. Another note, if his sister decides to help him out, she should register an account. //nepaxt 19:05, 3 January 2016 (UTC)
- I am the sister – much of the situation is explained on my user page. WikiInternetWeb (talk) 01:22, 4 January 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks for explaining the situation. And, welcome to Simple Wikipedia! //nepaxt 02:52, 4 January 2016 (UTC)
Dryer disambig
Hi Nepaxt. Whenever you create a disambiguation page it's a good idea to check 'What links here'. Ideally, article pages should not link to disambiguation pages. For exceptions see: Wikipedia:Disambiguation pages with links. I just thought to mention it so you could watch out for it as it is easy to forget. I went ahead and changed the link in Washing machine from dryer (disambig) to Clothes dryer (article). Thanks. User:Rus793 (talk) 15:54, 3 January 2016 (UTC)
- I didn't know that. Thank you, Rus. //nepaxt 19:06, 3 January 2016 (UTC)
Welcoming users
Before welcoming a user, please be sure that the user is making good changes here. You welcomed user Immortality113, but all of that user's changes were vandalism. Please be careful about that. Thanks. --Auntof6 (talk) 02:44, 30 January 2016 (UTC)
- Okay. I'll be more careful next time. //nepaxt 02:07, 31 January 2016 (UTC)
rollback
Hey Nepaxt: I just wanna inform you there's a rollback feature on Simple English Wikipedia. With the rollback feature, you can automatically revert a user's changes. However, please do so only if the user is doing vandalism or adding incorrect info into articles. Angela Maureen (talk) 22:01, 2 February 2016 (UTC)
- @September 1988: Thank you! Do you have to request rollback? //nepaxt 21:35, 3 February 2016 (UTC)
- Requesting rollback is up to whosoever wants to revert vandalism. Just make the request; they'll review it. Angela Maureen (talk) 21:40, 3 February 2016 (UTC)
- Thank you so much! //nepaxt 21:41, 3 February 2016 (UTC)
