Line 7:
* '''Revision deletions.''' Unless it's on [[revision deletion test]], you should always revert any revision deletions, and ''never'' hide the ''performer'' (principally, or most often, ''you'') of the action. We value transparency on '''Public Test Wiki''', so there is almost never a reason to hide the performer, as you did in [[Special:Redirect/logid/9090|this log action]].
* '''The <code>[[TestWiki:Bots|bot]]</code> flag'''. While [[TestWiki:Bureaucrats|bureaucrats]] ''can'' grant, technically and procedurally, the <code>[[TestWiki:Bots|bot]]</code> flag, usually to their own account or sub-accounts, it should ''only'' be done for a ''temporary'' basis to prevent things like [[Special:RecentChanges]] flooding, as you did with your [[User:Syno sock|sub-account]] [[Special:Redirect/logid/9089|here]]. If you want to apply for a full, permanent bot account, you can request it at [[TestWiki:Bot approval requests]], and a [[TestWiki:Consuls|Consul]] will review your request in due course.
* '''Reverting test edits.''' Per [[TestWiki:Main policy#After testing|this policy sub-section]], you should always make sure you are undoing ''any'' test edits or log actions, including test page creations, test blocks, and other actions, broadly construed. I've noticed you are mostly doing this, and this is to your great credit, but have noted a few instances where it was not, so thought it would be a good reminder.
Thanks for your attention to these notes, and happy testing! :)
