Twinkle: Avoid warning where user is tagging own work for deletion #118

For as long as I can remember using Twinkle, whenever you tag or mark an item of stuff you uploaded (userpage, talk page, image, etc) for deletion using Twinkle, it still goes ahead and warns you that you have done so. That may not be the intention, but usually when I do something, i don't have a tendency to forget within 10 seconds or so :)

Since Twinkle can already detect that a user is warning themselves, talking back to themselves, reporting themselves to ARV etc, would it be possible within Twinkle to code it to either ask if you want a warning, or for it to be added to Twinkle's preferences so that users can avoid warning themselves about stuff they already know please?

It is a fair point. I am fairly sure you can manually turn off the notification in most cases, but that is only effective if you knew you created the page yourself. (You can't turn off notification for BLP PROD, but I don't know why you would be using that for a page you created yourself!)

This doesn't fix the issue: it is still possible to notify yourself in CSD, XFD, and DI. It may be difficult to fix this in some of these modules, which is why I haven't done it already :)

My bad, I did not realize that the issue was more pervasive than I thought; I'll take a look at the other modules when I have time.
