Orphaned non-free media (File:Dexter's Laboratory - The Musical Time Machine (album).jpg)

Thanks for uploading File:Dexter's Laboratory - The Musical Time Machine (album).jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:15, 20 January 2013 (UTC)

Lead

Just as an FYI regarding this edit you made in the Ebert article, it is incorrect to say that "3 paragraphs are standard". MOS:LEAD actually says that the lead "should ideally contain no more than four paragraphs". More specifically, WP:LEADLENGTH instructs that articles with more than 30,000 characters should be either three or four paragraphs. The Ebert article has 80,000 characters. Also, it's best to avoid combining two completely unrelated paragraphs, such as you did when you merged the praise and health content (paragraphs 3 and 4). Have a good week. --76.189.111.2 (talk) 01:56, 9 April 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for the reply you put on my talk page. I have moved it here so that the discussion is not happening in two different places, which puts it out of context. You wrote:
"Although MOS does indeed say that, the general consensus among editors is limiting it to 3 paragraphs, as most (if not all) FAs and GAs have 3 paragraph leads. The reason I put the "praises" after information about his death is because those came AFTER he died, so it was in chronological order. That being said, I won't try to revert it back to 3 if you feel it so important to keep it at 4. No big deal, just thought I'd voice my reasoning. yonnie (talk) 16:10, 10 April 2013 (UTC)"[1]
I think your opening words said it all: "MOS does indeed say that". Exactly. (smile) So that really should be the end of the discussion. Although you claim that "3 paragraphs are standard" and "the general consensus among editors is limiting it to 3 paragraphs", you have provided no diffs to support it, and numerous editors have said it's simply not true or accurate. Nevertheless, that assertion is clearly not what the rules on this matter say. And multiple highly experienced editors/admins, such as Sj and ThaddeusB, have said the same thing and also reverted the content back to four paragraphs. Again, MOS:LEAD and WP:LEADLENGTH are very clear on this matter. The lead of MOS:LEAD says, "it should ideally contain no more than four paragraphs" and the WP:LEADLENGTH table instructs than an article with more than 30,000 characters should have "three or four paragraphs" in the lead. The Ebert article is more than double that, 80,000! Therefore, a four-paragraph lead is perfectly in line with policy. In fact, some knowledgeable bio editors have suggested that five paragraphs would be appropriate because of the large amount of content. I disagree with that, but the policy per WP:LEADLENGTH does point out that a four-paragraph maximum is "not an absolute rule". Finally, in terms of the praise and health/death information, it is never a good idea to merge unrelated content like that. For the record, leads are intended to be primarily in logical order, not chronological. Hope this helps. If you have any more questions or concerns on this matter, feel free to contact Sj or Thaddeus. Have a great rest of the week! --76.189.111.2 (talk) 21:47, 10 April 2013 (UTC)

Neither source mentions that it was pulled after its initial airing. The only CN toon I know of like that is "Buffalo Gals" from Cow and Chicken. Paper Luigi ^{T • C} 21:14, 6 December 2013 (UTC)
