“

Per aspera ad astra

”

My name is FriyMan and I am kind of a jack of all trades. I can review for GA, I can fight Vandals, I can write articles, but that doesn't essentially mean I am good in any of those things. Currently, I am enjoying GA reviews, fixing refs the most literally nothing. My goal on Wikipedia is to become checkuser and track each and every one of you make a bot to do boring work for me.

`{{AIV\|s}}`	Appears to be a shared IP address, used by multiple users.	`{{UAA\|no}}`	Not a blatant violation of the username policy.	`{{RFPP\|nea}}`	Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection.
`{{AIV\|4im}}`	User has been inappropriately warned. 4im warnings are appropriate for severe vandalism and defamation only.	`{{UAA\|e}}`	Not a blatant violation of the username policy, but it's worth keeping an eye on their edits.	`{{RFPP\|co}}`	Declined – Likely collateral damage as one or several users who are making improvements would be affected by the requested protection.

`{{AIV\|nv}}`	Edits are not vandalism. Please ensure recent edits constitute vandalism before re-reporting.	`{{UAA\|su}}`	Not a blatant violation of the username policy.
