av-dark
[edit]Hello! I've been using AntiVandal a lot recently and I love it. I wrote a user script which adds a dark mode. After using it for a while myself, I've gotten around to writing a documentation page for it, and I refer to it as a "plugin for AntiVandal" because I wasn't sure how else to describe it. Is that OK, or should I reword it or delete it altogether? This my first user script and I don't know the etiquette. — tony talk 16:23, 13 June 2025 (UTC)
- @TonySt: that's completely fine! Feel free to add a link to it on the main script page as well. —Ingenuity (t • c) 00:41, 14 June 2025 (UTC)
A barnstar for you!

| Hey Ingenuity, just wanted to thank you again for creating AntiVanal — I really appreciate the work you put into it and my anti-vandalism work would only be a fraction as good without. I hope you'll find some time to improve it even more down the line. Squawk7700 (talk) 20:26, 19 June 2025 (UTC) |

Block of Wolfmagice
[edit]May I ask why you revoked their talk page access without them using their talk page inappropriately at all? I would only revoke TPA of a user who actually abuses their own talk page while blocked. Just to clarify, I am not an administrator [yet], so I don't have the power to block anyone. Faster than Thunder (talk | contributions) Tamil speakers: Contribute here 16:05, 25 June 2025 (UTC)
- Because that's a sock of BuickCenturyDriver, which has talk page access revoked. There's no reason to keep TPA for LTAs. —Ingenuity (t • c) 16:06, 25 June 2025 (UTC)
