Why can't this page be semi-protected?, this event is less than a month away and nobody can create the page until the event happens. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jeffhardyred (talk • contribs) 2012-04-07 13:22 (UTC)

Geonotices

Hi. I just wondered if you have any ideas on the timescale for discussions at Wikipedia:Geonotice. How do things normally proceed, please? Thanks. -- Trevj (talk) 10:16, 8 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Extreme Rules (2012), again

The build for said PPV has begun, the article must not be unprotected so building of the article can begin per the usual routine. Things added at this time are the infobox, the lead, the background section, the matches, etc. and all can be sourced now. CRRays Head90 | ^{Get Some!} 01:26, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I put a "not" there that shouldn't be there. I'm requesting the article be unprotected, for the reasons I said after the mistake. CRRays Head90 | ^{Get Some!} 02:47, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The reason the previous incarnations don't look notable is because they were built 2 months ago when the for WrestleMania XXVIII was happening, now that it's being built towards notability is established due to the numerous sources and on screen happenings. I strongly suggest you discuss this with the Pro wrestling project, they will tell you how things usually work, and I promise you it satisfies policies and guidelines. CRRays Head90 | ^{Get Some!} 20:08, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I built the article in my sandbox, this is what the article will and should look like at this point. User:CRRaysHead90/sandbox/Extreme Rules (2012). CRRays Head90 | ^{Get Some!} 20:56, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I've had to re-edit this persons cutting stuff off without discussion on the sword and sandal page again. Foofbun (talk) 22:05, 13 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Hi Deryck,

I strongly believe the Sword and Sandal page should be modified to registered users only. When I first came across the article, not only was it unreferenced, but seemed to be written as one person's opinion on the the topic with this person eliminating any modification of his or her monologue. Reading the talk page seemed to show a collection of antagonism, but produced little that would improve the article. My view is that this individual may at one time have been a registered user, but rather than entering discussion would reedit all edits to go back to his original opinion.

I believe that Wikipedia should have a world view. The sword and sandal topic is, to me an interesting one, but unlike other film genres some people regard the subject as often a ludicrous one based on their only contact with the genre being by only viewing faded English dubbed prints originally meant as a television package in the public domain. In my own experience I first came across serious silent film classics dubbed for comedy on the Fractured Flickers, years later I would see scenes paraphrased on documentaries, but it was some time before I was able to see uncut original versions shown at the correct or near correct speed. In recent years some of these original uncut prints have surfaced in excellent condition with more sensible original dialogue. The point is that one can't base an entire genre on prints seen on MS3TK, as you couldn't base the silent film genre on Fractured Flickers.

In the genre there are the silent films, the 1950s "historical" films featuring major Hollywood stars, then the original Steve Reeves Hercules, and the imitations, then the genre's comeback. Most have been international co-productions between France and Italy and sometimes the United States.

By making the topic one for registered users only we can have people familiar with Wikipedia's policies who can improve the article with references from various reliable source. Thank you.Foofbun (talk) 07:31, 15 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Jay Jason

Hi Deryck: On the discussion of a possible conflict of interest for the Jay Jason site, there have been over ten people who have made comments and in general they have been rather positive. I wonder if you can take a quick look at what folks have been saying about this issue for discussion. Many thanks--Jaytribute516 14:12, 15 April 2012 (UTC)

1870s Cambridge albumen album

Thanks for the appreciation! I did my undergraduate degree at Cambridge, though a few years ago now. But I saw these pics, and thought it would be a fun challenge to identify the last few that hadn't been placed. The real credit though goes to the readers of nwhyte's livejournal, in particular livejournal user unwholesome_fen, who was the one it was that made the key identification.

I was sufficiently inspired by the chase to start Commons:Illustrations and engravings of Cambridge, to 1923. There's quite a lot more still sitting on my hard-drive to be uploaded, but I reckon it may take several months to get the page fully filled out. I was going to wait till I'd got the project a little more complete before telling WP:CANTAB or WP:Cambridge University Wikipedia Society about it. But there are some quite useful plans of the historical development of the colleges, in Commons:Category:Cambridge Described and Illustrated, that it might be quite nice to make colour SVG versions of, if anyone was seeking a project.

Thanks again for the encouragement. All best, Jheald (talk) 13:49, 21 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Appearance...

Well, just want to know why 2011–12 UEFA Champions League been protected, for what only. Seems like to be edit-warring on the Barcelona and Real Madrid to advance. Disapearance... (so giggs-styled). Raymond "Giggs" Ko 21:49, 25 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Despite both teams have eliminated, the edit-warring would be continued even the season ended. Anyway, it's better way protect until May 20. Good job. Raymond "Giggs" Ko 12:07, 26 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Stefan Wong

Hi! What happened is... that was a guy who died in a plane crash. Originally I redirected names of those passengers to their respective accidents if they were not Wikipedia notable, but the consensus said that those redirects shouldn't be put into place, so I stopped making them. Your change was fine! WhisperToMe (talk) 17:32, 28 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I know that his case was covered in some documentaries about the crash, but as a typical "family in disaster" scenario. In Mayday his mother discussed what he was doing. He, his brother, and father were returning to the U.S. from a vacation in Mexico. But AFAIK he didn't get a lot of press coverage (not like Rika Matsuda in KE801), and he wasn't one of the flight crew members. WhisperToMe (talk) 17:49, 28 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Protection for Bade Achhe Lagte Hain

Hi! I am Jagadhatri. Nearly 2 or 3 months ago you semi-protected the article: Bade Achhe Lagte Hain and dropped me a message saying: "If any further vandalism takes place leave me a message" and I would like to inform you that IP users and even some registered users have started vandalizing the article by deleting references and other useful information. It is in my watch list but I was surprised by seeing that even after adding it to my watch list people have vandalized the article and the edits did not appear in my watch list. And it is very difficult to keep track of vandals in this way. I would request you to go through the article's history and semi-protect it so that IP users don't get the opportunity to vandalize it (God knows about the registered users). I being a members of Wikiproject: Soap Opera it's my duty to protect and make soap opera articles better. Please, if you are replying me then leave me a Tb template. Thank you in advance --Jagadhatri(২০১২) 09:28, 9 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Re: 2 separate messages

Thanks for the invitation, but unfortunately I won't be able to attend the HK meetup.

I suppose I might just return back to numbers when I ran out of alphabets for talk page archives. Haven't really thought about it yet! - Mailer Diablo 14:37, 9 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Protection for Kya Huaa Tera Vaada

Protection Request

I was not here for two days and IP Users have deleted the whole content and put their own info!

No I recently had a dispute with User:Harsh 2580 and it was solved here. I earlier wrote this: "User:Harsh 2580 put a plot template in Bade Achhe Lagte Hain unnecessarily and after being reverted he wrote on my talk page as this: "I am assured that you have pea-brain. Wikipedia:WikiProject Soap Operas doesn't cite anywhere that the plot must be 700-800 words. And please don't judge on what I know and what I don't. I can assess your knowledge of editing though. Please go on and keep piling the plot until you are satisfied.HARSH TALK 09:00, 14 May 2012" and humiliating, embarrassing and threatening an user may result to block the user from editing (See this, to be satisfied: Wikipedia:Harassment), and WP:PLOT and WP:FILMPLOT says: "Plot summaries should be between 400 and 700 words". Hope you can understand. and Bade Achhe Lagte Hain is so, so the tag is not required. When replying, please leave me a Tb template. --Jagadhatri(২০১২) 09:15, 14 May 2012 (UTC) He's continuously threatening me saying "We'll see" and so one. He's humiliating me. HELP! --Jagadhatri(২০১২) 09:21, 14 May 2012 (UTC)". Thank you again, for protecting the articles: Dekha Ek Khwaab and the other one. --Jagadhatri(২০১২) 12:35, 14 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Protection

Hi Deryck thank you that you protected the soap opera articles but vandalism is back on Dekha Ek Khwaab. I, rather we would be the happiest editors if you protect them for a longer time so that we get some time to better them instead of reverting vandalism again and again. When replying please leave me a talk back template. Thanking you in advance...--Jagadhatri(২০১২) 06:35, 19 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

And as far as I read all my contributions will be moved into my new account. Am I right? --Jagadhatri(২০১২) 13:31, 31 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

But what about my signature? --Jagadhatri(২০১২) 13:32, 31 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hey one user says as follows:

"after changing username, you need to start from beginning.. edits, counts can not be transferred.. see help pages for confirmation."

Is it true?--Jagadhatri(২০১২) 13:35, 31 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I am just renaming..so what happens in that case?--Jagadhatri(২০১২) 13:44, 31 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

PROTECTION FOR: List of awards and nominations received by Infinite

Hi, Can you give protection (at least, semi protection) to "List of awards and nominations received by Infinite" page, please? I wrote this page and I have already written all the references from trusted sources, but somebody keep edit it and remove the reference... or change the reference into untrusted sources and also destroy the layout... Please, protect this page... I add this additional page, redirect from Infinite (band)'s page (part: awards and nominations). Long time ago (before that part was protected), a lot of IP vandalism happen on that part too. I don't know how to request for protection... Thank you very much... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Caspereeny (talk • contribs) 19:25, 6 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Re: PROTECTION FOR: List of awards and nominations received by Infinite

But, this page actually is same with 'awards and nominations's part in Infinite (band)'s page. I just move the contains and arrange the lay out systematically. Previously, That 'awards and nomination's part was also protected due to extremely High IP vandalism. In fact that this page and that part are the same... So, this page will also has the same IP vandalism. Am I right? Caspereeny (talk) 20:03, 6 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Kuwaiti sanctions

Although the Olympic Organization for Kuwait is listed as participating in the 2012 Olympic article the actual organization and committee is under sanctions from 2010 and athletes will not be able to compete under the Kuwaiti flag, only as independent athletes under the Olympic flag. The official 2012 Olympic website does not list Kuwait as a participant and therefore, the Wiki article should be consistent with this fact. Please review these facts. I am not sure if or when they will be re-instated. Briefzehn — Preceding unsigned comment added by Julien Houle (talk • contribs) 19:14, 18 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Li Yuan-chia

An interesting article for several reasons. There have been recent academic studies in English of his biography, poetry and so on. I believe there is an exhibition on right now about the "Eight Outlaws" group. Unfortunately when I was in Taipei for Wikimania I couldn't find anything written about him; but now there are many webpages in Chinese about the whole group of artists.

I have some obvious technical problems ... five versions of some names. Charles Matthews (talk) 18:40, 4 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Protection on C3 Church Global

Thank you for temporarily protecting this page as per my request. However, the protection log says you have protected it for just 24 hours. What's the point of that? He/she'll just come back tomorrow (or this evening) and carry on as usual - chances are they may not have attempted to edit it in the short time it was protected and will never even see that it has been protected, either that or they will laugh at how ineffectual the action has been. I would have thought 1 or 2 weeks would have been more appropriate. Regards, Halsteadk (talk) 06:54, 21 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Persistent vandalism??

You blocked the Olympic medal table page because of "persistent vandalism". I don't see any such "persistent" vandalism; just a bit, that you might expect in any such article. So I now can't edit that article, and neither can many of the other contributors who have put useful stuff in there.
