Rollback
changeBecause of your activity here, I've granted you the rollback flag. Hope it's okay with you. :) Pmlineditor (t · c · l) 07:35, 27 January 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks :) It´s perfectly all right with me, I have already experience with it on es.wiki. Savh·Tell me 16:25, 27 January 2011 (UTC)
- Hey. Just be careful with the rollback. Edits like this one really aren't vandalism. And undo would have been better. Thanks!--Gordonrox24 | Talk 22:50, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
- That's right, but the same user had edits previously like this one, clearly vandalism, and adding Vermilion (Orange-red, a combination between two colours) as one of the most common colours isn't really useful, I thought. I will think when using rollback in future cases. Savh·Tell me 09:13, 30 January 2011 (UTC)
- Yep, I agree it wasn't very useful, but that one edit wasn't quite blatant vandalism. Thanks for your help!--Gordonrox24 | Talk 16:22, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

I just wanted to let you know that I removed your QD tag from this article. Although not well written, it was not vandalism. A gonoduct is a reproductive organ in some animals.

- Well, it really is the habit of checking every edit, as it comes by. On IRC, there are some channels in which bots report edits to different projects, which is quite handy and also helps counter-vandalism. I could show you around if you'd join IRC. Savh·Tell me 15:32, 26 June 2012 (UTC)

"Taoiseach+Enda"=666+666
changeHello Savh, I can see you've done some good work in Wikipedia. I presume you are not in Ireland right now, so let me explain. So, many people are truly wondering if a leader can be doing the work of Satan, and wondering if there is some signs we should have seen. 100 times up a holy mountain, for example, does it mean something? Anyway, I don't believe in such things, but the calculation "Taoiseach+Enda" = 666+666 is going around a lot in email right now. Can you give your justification for deleting this?
- Unfortunately, even if it's going around in many e-mails recently, it is not enciclopedically relevant, less on the article Taoiseach. Wikipedia is an enciclopedia, not a forum and not a place to develop conspiracy theories. Everything included should be based on reliable sources, and this clearly can't be proven relevant. Savh Talk 21:12, 12 June 2013 (UTC)
No, you misunderstand. I don't seek to use this as a forum nor to develop conspiracy theories. There is plenty other places on the internet for that (and I'm not interested - I'm just interested in numbers, coincidences in car registration plates etc.). The 666 is just an faintly interesting coincidence based on the letters in the words... if you don't share the interest in numbers that's fair enough. People are truly wondering, though, if the taoiseach is now doing the work of the devil...

Warning
changeHey you are doing good job in reverting vandalism. I really appreciate it. But please warn users after reverting an edit as vandalism.--Pratyya (Hello!) 14:36, 18 October 2013 (UTC)

Warning vandals
changeHi, Savh. Thanks for reverting all those changes by the IP vandal. When you warn vandals, please don't start with the "final warning" message. Believe it or not, there are people who think that if they can edit a site, they're allowed to do whatever they want. The graduated warnings are designed to explain that that isn't true, and to try to get their cooperation before being too stern. Thanks! --Auntof6 (talk) 12:58, 6 January 2015 (UTC)
- I honestly think it would be a waste of my time to give an obvious vandal ([1], [2],...) with over more than 10 of such edits even one warning, which he simply ignored, just like all the abuse filter warnings he got. Thanks for the note, though. Savh Talk 13:17, 6 January 2015 (UTC)
Caught in the vandal Ip address block
changehello Savh my mom is coming with me to an art+feminism event tomorrow and I instructed her to get a user account four days beforehand. She responded that she couldn't, she was getting a strange error message. I finally came over to see the issue and found her IP blocked for vandalism "cross wiki abuse." Sigh. Vandals! She gets her internet, as I also do, from a tmobile hotspot and I am guessing the block cast a wide net and blocks many tmobile IPs. Can you help lift the ban so that she can create an account? Please pardon errors, I am editing from my mobile phone Shameran81 (talk) 04:12, 4 March 2017 (UTC)
- @Shameran81: please e-mail me the block details through Special:Emailuser/Savh, or check whether the block is set to anon only. If it is set to affect anonymous users only, you should be able to create an account for her (use Special:CreateAccount) and she shouldn't be affected by the block.

Grey font
changeHi. The grey font on your talkpage, is extremely hard to read on my end... --Thegooduser Let's Talk! :) 🍁 03:18, 12 November 2020 (UTC)
- It was certainly not intentional, but a consequence of outdated logic in Dalibor Bosits' signature. I have added the missing </font> closure tags. Savh Talk 07:12, 12 November 2020 (UTC)
Talkpage reverts
change- If they keep reverting you on talkpages/ their own userpages, then just ignore it, not doing so breaks WP:DENY. I'd only revert in article space --Tsugaru Let's Talk! :) 🍁 22:09, 30 January 2021 (UTC)
- I see WP:DENY explicitly mentions "Revert and ignore them". I find claiming AIDS does not exist to be quite disrespectful - and considering I'm using SWViewer reverting does not cost me any more effort than skipping it. Savh Talk 22:12, 30 January 2021 (UTC)
- Yes, but reverting gives them what they want, to undo you. That's why I say to only revert in article space. They would step away and leave if we didn't keep reverting back and forth. Thanks --Tsugaru Let's Talk! :) 🍁 22:16, 30 January 2021 (UTC)
