Just an FYI, per [[WP:OWNTALK]] users are given broad leeway to remove content from their own talk pages. You may be required to post a notice there, but there's no requirement that the notice stay.

== Rollback granted ==

[[Image:Wikipedia Rollbacker.svg|right|130px]]

Hi ProgrammingGeek. After reviewing your request for "{{mono|rollbacker}}", I have <span class="plainlinks">[//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=rights&user=&page=User%3AProgrammingGeek enabled]</span> rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

*Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing [[WP:TW|Twinkle]].

*Rollback should be used to revert ''clear'' cases of [[WP:VAND|''vandalism'']] ''only'', and not [[WP:AGF|good faith edits]].

*Rollback should never be used to [[WP:EDITWAR|edit war]].

*If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.

*Use common sense.

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:New admin school/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 [[User talk:Widr|talk page]] if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! [[User:Widr|Widr]] ([[User talk:Widr|talk]]) 11:06, 29 July 2016 (UTC)<!-- Template:Rollbackgiven3-->

== [[User talk:ProgrammingGeek/Welcomes]] ==

Hi. I deleted [[User:ProgrammingGeek/Welcomes]], as requested, but then found myself not sure whether you intended this talk page to be deleted too. If you did, just put {{tl|db-user}} on it. Regards, [[User:JohnCD|JohnCD]] ([[User talk:JohnCD|talk]]) 20:30, 29 July 2016 (UTC)

: Hello, I removed your contributions due to a lack of a [[WP:RS|reliable source]]. I'll leave this page alone but if you could provide one it'd be appreciated.

:Hi, [[User:98.114.225.210]], it appears I didn't read the edit as carefully as I should have, and I am sorry for this. I have removed the advertising from the page. However, please refrain from insults like that in the future, instead, just drop me a line on this page. Thanks!
