By the way, you have to rearrange the Judy Ann Santos article sooner or later. You're doing it in the wrong way under Wikipedia standards. I've already forwarded it to the Cleanup task force about it. - 上村七美 | talk 13:35, 11 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Preview button

I would like to thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. However, it is recommended that you use the preview button before you save; this helps you find any errors you have made, and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history. Thanks again. --Joe Jklin (T C) 19:33, 3 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Edit summaries

Hello. Please don't forget to provide an edit summary. Thanks, and happy editing.

Don't Give Up on Us

First, it's important not to create articles until you're familiar with how to do it. A list of facts is not an article.

Secondly, if you do create a proper article on this film, it has to be under the correct title. The capitalisation has to be: Don't Give Up on Us; there is no need to add "(the movie)" because there's no other article by that name (and in any acse, the qualifier would be "(film)"). If you do create a proper article, the IMDb page will be a useful link. You need to look at other articles on films, and consult the various help pages on editing.

Thirdly, you're still not using edit summaries; please start. --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 00:13, 8 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry to nag, but an edit summary should say what you did, no mention one (minor) part of what you did, as here. --Mel Etitis (Talk) 21:05, 22 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please remember to mark your edits as minor when (and only when) they genuinely are minor edits (see Wikipedia:Minor edit). Marking a major change as a minor one (and vice versa) is considered poor etiquette. The rule of thumb is that only an edit that consists solely of spelling corrections, formatting and minor rearranging of text should be flagged as a 'minor edit'. Thanks!

Also see WP:CITE, and give sources for additions of information. It's important also to link complete dates, such as 13 March 1984; this allows the Wikipedia software to operate and make sure that readers see dates according to their preferences. --Mel Etitis (Talk) 19:01, 17 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Minor edits (again)

Please remember to mark your edits as minor when (and only when) they genuinely are minor edits (see Wikipedia:Minor edit). Marking a major change as a minor one (and vice versa) is considered poor etiquette. The rule of thumb is that only an edit that consists solely of spelling corrections, formatting and minor rearranging of text should be flagged as a 'minor edit'. Thanks! --Mel Etitis (Talk) 09:31, 26 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Page titles

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you recently tried to give Kulam (2008 film) a different title by copying its content and pasting it into Mag-ingat Ka Sa... Kulam. This is known as a "cut and paste move", and it is considered undesirable because it splits the page history which is needed for attribution and various other purposes. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page. This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other articles that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut and paste move repair holding pen. Thank you.

RfD nomination of Judy Ann Santos awards and nominations

Page titles (again)

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you recently tried to give Darling (2009 film) a different title by copying its content and pasting it into OMG (Oh, My Girl!). This is known as a "cut and paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history which is needed for attribution and various other purposes. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page. This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other articles that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut and paste move repair holding pen. Please try to remember to use the Move tab in future! Thank you. R'n'B (call me Russ) 18:11, 18 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

George and Cecil Ratings

Ratings table is unnecessary as the Wikipedia community concludes. It creates a very blog-like feel on the page which wikipedia really frowns upon as Wikipedia is a place for information and not forums. Although, it will be allowed if the ratings are not represented on a table, but in a "tivia" or "informative" construction of edits. --CocaCirca2009 (talk) 18:34, 18 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia uses bolding only in very limited circumstances

Please read WP:MOSBOLD - pretty much within an article the only thing that should be bolded is the first time the name or an alternate name of the subject of the article is used. Active Banana (talk) 13:00, 13 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
