Hi. Hope you're well. I've got another actress filmography at FLC. Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/Nicole Kidman filmography/archive1. Would you like to review this list? Cowlibob (talk) 21:03, 23 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The Signpost: 23 September 2015

Hello again,

Whenever you have the time, could you address the comments left by Cowlibob and other reviewers as much as possible. I'm trying to do so, but I have to keep in mind that I am beginning classes. So it will take teamwork to finish this task. Thanks for your help and cooperation.

Your GA nomination of Sonam Kapoor

Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Sonam Kapoor you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of Jaguar -- Jaguar (talk) 16:00, 1 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your helpful comments

Thanks very much for your helpful comments, at Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/R U Professional/archive1.

I've gone ahead and directly utilized all your suggestions to modify the article -- as I felt all were quite useful.

Perhaps you could revisit?

Thanks again,

It's me again hahaha, I don't know if you're busy, and I might be a little extra, but I really would like to see your review on this FLC! Thanks Frankie!!! GagaNutellatalk 02:53, 3 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Of course. I was just waiting for Johanna's comments to be resolved. Will look in a few hours. -- Frankie talk 06:53, 3 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I was very busy. I just saw your comments, which are a very good ones. That's why I really wanted you to review it. I think the most difficult thing will be the lead. Even I have so experience with leads, this one is so difficult lol anyway, I will work on it during the weekend. GagaNutellatalk 15:31, 3 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Rod Steiger on screen and stage

 — Chris Woodrich (talk) 18:55, 4 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This list has been promoted to FL status yesterday and is my first FL success. Thanks for reviewing/commenting/supporting the list's promotion at its FLC. Pavanjandhyala (talk) 01:39, 5 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Congratulations. I also hope to have first FA success with Sonam Kapoor. Also, all the best for your journey. -- Frankie talk 04:36, 5 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Can you please review this for GA? Yashthepunisher (talk) 05:30, 5 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I am trying to take Sonam Kapoor to FA therefore I don't think I will be able to take it. Good luck though! -- Frankie talk 10:17, 5 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, Good luck to you too. BTW I was wondering why you droped the idea of taking this list to FL status? It nearly meets every criteria and you have been the major contributor. Yashthepunisher (talk) 13:00, 5 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
If you look at my FLs I stopped contributing to Bollywood lists after Madhuri Dixit filmography. Will nominate it someday, when I don't have any other article to nominate. -- Frankie talk 13:08, 5 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Ok. Yashthepunisher (talk) 13:20, 5 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Yashthepunisher: I have nominated the article for FAC, my first one. Here is the link if you wanna leave comments. :) -- Frankie talk 15:48, 5 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Please leave your comments here, I'll try to reply at the FAC. Yashthepunisher (talk) 17:38, 8 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Just a gentle reminder. Yashthepunisher (talk) 03:33, 13 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry I didn't notice your previous post. I'll take a look at the soonest. -- Frankie talk 14:00, 13 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The Hunger Games

Frankie, do you like THG? Oh, and thank you for your support on my FLC. GagaNutellatalk 14:19, 5 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

What if I say I have never seen The Hunger Games? :D I'm waiting for the final one and I'll watch the four films together. -- Frankie talk 14:22, 5 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
You must watch them and read the books lol I just asked that because I wanted to know if you want to work with me on its accolades list for a future FLC. What do you think? GagaNutellatalk 14:40, 5 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, I will. I really like Jennifer's films. Yes, we can definitely work, but first I gotta make Brad Pitt a featured topic (after taking his awards list and Plan B Entertainment to FL and GA, respectively). -- Frankie talk 14:44, 5 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
You've got a lot work. Make sure I'm going to review his list. After my nomination for AHS ends, I will work very very veryyyyy hard on Gaga's awards and then THG. I think it will take the time for both of us be free. GagaNutellatalk 14:56, 5 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, I will inform you when I nominate it. Gaga's awards list is already in a pretty good shape. Make sure that every line for introducing awards have reliable sources, and is accurate. You can read List of awards and nominations received by Taylor Swift to get an idea what you need further to do! -- Frankie talk 15:08, 5 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Please notice me. Thank you for the advice. GagaNutellatalk 15:46, 5 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
(talk page stalker) please tell me you've at least read the books. I personally saw all three of the previous films the day they were released to theaters. Anybody who likes the books and/or J-Law is sure to enjoy them! Snuggums (talk / edits) 20:02, 8 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Meaning to. To be honest I don't like to wait for the completion of a film series which take years so most of the time I wait for the whole series to end and watch them all together. The crappy Fifty Shades of Grey is an exception. -- Frankie talk 20:06, 8 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I see. Never read any of the Fifty Shades of Grey books or saw the film, but heard they're really bad. Snuggums (talk / edits) 20:18, 8 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I watched the film (not being aware of its plot) and was pretty disappointed as it objectifies a woman. Glad that you haven't watched it. -- Frankie talk 20:31, 8 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

List of accolades received by No Country for Old Men help

Hello again,

Thank you once again for your assistance to bring List of accolades received by The Artist (film) to featured list status. I honestly am grateful for the help especially since I have college classes (but thankful the workload is not hard so far).

With that being said, I understand you are at hard work with other lists such Brad Pitt and Lady Gaga related topics. However, if or when you do have the time, could you please create an infobox summarizing the awards and nominations received by No Country for Old Men at its respective accolades list page and a column listing all the dates for the awards. I honestly do not want to be a bother to your work, but Vivvt are working tirelessly to try to save the list from demotion, and we would appreciate the help. If you are unable to do so, that's absolutely fine. Anyways, please give it some thought and thanks for your contributions, once again.

--Birdienest81 (talk) 07:16, 6 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I will try to add them soon. -- Frankie talk 15:14, 6 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Friendly note

I think as best practice, it's generally frowned upon to notify individual editors on their user talk pages to come and comment at a particular WP:FAC.

That is, unless you are specifically notifying them with a neutrally worded message because they had already previously organically come to participate in a level of discussion about that article -- like as the prior GA Reviewer, or at Peer Review.

It is okay, however, to post neutrally worded notices to the talk pages of relevant WikiProjects with a link to the FAC.

Good luck to you,

Cirt (talk) 20:54, 6 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I second that! Also, it's better not to expect "favors" by following the QPQ system. I know, your response was made in good faith, but still be more neutral. Vensatry (ping) 05:07, 7 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I respectfully disagree. I think when someone comments in your FAC/FLC, you should try to return the "favor" by reviewing their nominations even if they do not ask. Nominations fail most of the time due to lack of activity. -- Frankie talk 07:13, 7 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
There is absolutely nothing wrong with the QPQ system as such. I was rather suggesting you to keep the requests as neutral as possible. Vensatry (ping) 08:35, 7 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

A barnstar for you!

The Barnstar of Diligence
This award is presented to you for your hard work, cooperativeness, and diligence is improving articles to featured status throughout Wikipedia while handling controversy with grace and class. Your efforts are tremendously appreciated! Birdienest81 (talk) 21:35, 9 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much for the kind words. -- Frankie talk 22:38, 9 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It's been a month since the last comment. Do let me know if you'd like to post some at the list's FLC page. Thanks.  — Ssven2 Speak 2 me 02:22, 10 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I will review it tomorrow. -- Frankie talk 18:08, 10 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Ssven2 although I like cricket, I do not have very much knowledge on it (I wish I could). You can ask users like Harrias, The Rambling Man, Vensatry or ChrisTheDude as they are good in sports related articles. -- Frankie talk 12:51, 11 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

No worries. I thought since you reviewed for Chennai's one, you could review this too.  — Ssven2 Speak 2 me 13:02, 11 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, I did but that was a pretty bad review. -- Frankie talk 13:33, 11 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Doubt

How many days does it take for a FLC close? Or is it about how many people support? GagaNutellatalk 03:32, 11 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Three supports but ever nomination ends on a certain period. Do remember that a nomination does not have a deadline. -- Frankie talk 10:44, 11 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I got it. Thank you. GagaNutellatalk 15:08, 11 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You are invited to join the discussion at Talk:Taylor Swift#Singer-songwriter. Thanks. Calidum 01:15, 12 October 2015 (UTC)Template:Z48[reply]

I am always game for an article improvement (if I can) but I am going to abstain from participating in any discussion. That is because when one disagrees with you, they tend to comment and attack on the user instead of content. -- Frankie talk 17:23, 12 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Your GA nomination of Sonam Kapoor

The article Sonam Kapoor you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:Sonam Kapoor for comments about the article. Well done! If the article has not already been on the main page as an "In the news" or "Did you know" item, you can nominate it to appear in Did you know.

Brad Pitt

Why did you remove the entire 'Producer' table from the Brad Pitt filmography article? What a silly thing to do, he is a prominent Hollywood producer. You did not seek consensus for this on the article talk page prior to doing so, as you should have. Put the table back immediately and seek consensus before making anymore major changes. - theWOLFchild 10:47, 16 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Well I am sorry if it hurt you. You can do it yourself and also remove that featured star (which indicates that it is one of the best lists) as I didn't gain consensus for making it featured too. -- Frankie talk 10:50, 16 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
"Hurt"...? So you're resorting to childish insults? Grow up. Show me where it was awarded featured status based on the removal of that table. (Featured status doers not mean "perfect", by the way. Articles are always in need of improvement. Case in point... ) And why should I have to do all the work of un-doing your edits? - theWOLFchild 11:11, 16 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I don't need to "grow up" and I am not going to revert the current version just because you find it "silly". FYI Pitt has starred in most of the films which he has produced so it will be pretty weird to repeat the same films again and again. I am not in the mood of posting some mean words to my fellow editors. You can do whatever you want but don't expect me to restore that version. -- Frankie talk 11:22, 16 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
You wouldn't be reverting the current version "because I find it silly", you should be reverting because you had no business making major changes without seeking consensus first. Maybe you're new here and didn't realize that, but now you know. You are not the sole arbiter any articles content. You need to realize that this project is a collaborative effort. So, with that said, if you refuse to restore the previous content, I will take that as your tacit admission that you don't give a rat's ass about the policies and guidelines of Wikipedia and you are leaving it to others to clean up your mess. Oh, and as for your comment; " I am not in the mood of posting some mean words to my fellow editors."... maybe you should re-read your first reply here. A completely unnecessary and juvenile insult. The kind of thing an angry teen would say, instead of a mature adult. My suggestion that you 'grow up' was in regards to that. - theWOLFchild 22:37, 16 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I have already replied that in the talk page of his filmography. And please discuss all these on talk page of filmography not here. -- Frankie talk 07:09, 17 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

re Thanks

Thanks for commenting on my FAC. As you suggested, I consulted a few native English speakers to copy-edit the article. Unfortunately none of them were kind enough to respond. -- Frankie talk 10:54, 16 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry to hear that! I suggest you also try posting neutrally worded notices to talk pages of relevant WikiProjects, and post a request at WP:GOCE, and ask some of your friends who are Category:User en-5 or Category:User en-N but might not be actual Wikipedia editors themselves but just friends in-real-life, to read over the article.
