Hi Cyberdog958. After reviewing your request, I have enabled rollback on your account. Please keep the following things in mind while using rollback:

• Being granted rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle or Ultraviolet. It just adds a [Rollback] button next to a page's latest live revision - that's all. It does not grant you any additional "status" on Wikipedia, nor does it change how Wikipedia policies apply to you.
• Rollback should be used to revert clear and unambiguous cases of vandalism only. Never use rollback to revert good faith edits.
• Rollback should never be used to edit war, and it should never be used in a content-related dispute to restore the page to your preferred revision. If rollback is abused or used for this purpose or any other inappropriate purpose, the rights will be revoked.
• Use common sense. If you're not sure about something, ask!

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into trouble or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Beeblebrox ^Beebletalks 00:00, 18 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for those TR moves, I'll handle the rest of the cleanup from here. TiggerJay (talk) 07:03, 28 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Tiggerjay: No problem, thanks for your work in RMs. There aren’t enough users reviewing these discussions so the work you’re doing is appreciated. cyberdog958^Talk 07:08, 28 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

How do you create a new page? Or suggest a new page? --Dukepokem (talk) 03:56, 2 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Dukepokem: Hi and welcome to Wikipedia. Writing your first article can be a very daunting task and is known as the hardest thing to do here on Wikipedia. It is suggested you gain experience by editing and expanding other articles before attempting to write one from scratch. You can learn more at this link. But, the best way to start a new article is with the article wizard. It will guide you step-by-step to write a draft and submit it. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask. cyberdog958^Talk 04:56, 2 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! How do I edit a Wikipedia page with Visual Editor? --Lyrica Firrantello (talk) 00:38, 7 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Lyrica Firrantello: Hi and welcome to Wikipedia. You can go over the tutorial for the Visual Editor here which will help you learn how to edit and add references. You can also use the user guide as a resource to help you too. If you have any specific questions, you can ask here or at the Teahouse. cyberdog958^Talk 02:03, 7 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

What's incumbent mean --Djones15z (talk) 00:42, 9 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Djones15z: Wikt:incumbent In my experience, the most common use is the figurative meaning of currently holding an office or title. cyberdog958^Talk 01:01, 9 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

What would a permanent name say Djones15z (talk) 01:19, 9 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
