Hello Methecooldude, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I contested the speedy deletion of Mirwani, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: There is sufficient context to identify the subject of the article. You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you.

No, A3 doesn't apply there either. That is only for articles that contain no content whatsoever beside a rephrasing of the title, external links, or a template (there are other ones listed on {{db-a3}}). The article seems fine as a stub right now. Thanks!

I noticed that you use Stike and AWB; although, most of your edits are with Huggle.

Hey Ryan, I use STiki as it supports ClueBot NG, which I host on my servers, but as it runs in java, it can be a little slow. I've used AWB a little bit but don't use it that often, it's not designed as a vandalism fighting tool. I do like Huggle the best however, as it is made in Visual Basic, it's prone to crashing sometimes.
As for your second question, AWB is very powerful and can do quite a lot, I haven't got my head around it yet.
Hope this helps
