Jonathan Frid

Hi. I don't understand the meaning of your message on my talk page. Can you explain it? What do you mean by "this site page"? And in what way is anyone failing to respect the dead? As I understand it a number of multiple sources give one death date for Frid, and and a number of others give a different one. As a result, the editors involved in Frid's article have had to discuss the matter on its talk page to determine how to proceed. What exactly is the problem?

Also, can you sign your messages more clearly and easilby by typing four tildes (~~~~) at the end of them, which also automatically time stamps them. Thanks. ;-) Nightscream (talk) 00:39, 25 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]


Wow, very fast return! I was talking of the link to the Frid story about his actual life in Hamilton, Ontario. The link had been changed over to something else.


It was there a few days back, but was somehow changed. I have shown you the link in my last message to you. It showed where he hung-out with his friends in Hamilton, Ontario.


Thanks-

Can you specify the diff in question? Nightscream (talk) 01:07, 5 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, Hired Ghoul. Got your message, and you're absolutely correct. As another editor noted today on the Jonathan Frid talk page, some anon IP snuck in almost eight months after Frid's death to make this unexplained deletion of WP:RS cites. Good eye! I'd advise keeping an eye, in fact, on that page — articles about science-fiction / fantasy / horror topics invariably suffer from obsessive fans who can be somewhat detached from mainstream reality. See Talk:Star Trek Into Darkness for an amazing recent example! --Tenebrae (talk) 17:21, 5 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Why, thank you! How thoughtful!   : )   --Tenebrae (talk) 00:17, 19 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
No, no, I wasn't asking why. It was just an expression, like, "My goodness, thank you!" But it's certainly a pleasure to thank a considerate and thoughtful person a second time! --Tenebrae (talk) 20:56, 19 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

February 2013

Hello, I'm Mlpearc. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Kirk Hammett seemed less than neutral to me, so I removed it for now. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Mlpearc (powwow) 23:22, 3 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You flatter me, sir. :-)

Personally, I think that article isn't large enough at this time to support two images, so I removed the photo. You can always put it back in there after you or someone else expands the article. I also removed all those line breaks you added to the article, as it didn't really look right; the convention is for one line break between paragraphs and sections.

Also, I think the issue of that photo's copyright status needs to be clarified, since it is identified on its upload page as Fair Use, but you added a note saying that it's in the public domain, while not removing the Fair Use tag. I left a message on the Commons Copyright Village Pump requesting their assistance. Thanks. Nightscream (talk) 01:18, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No prob. One thing though: Just so you know, you don't have to create a heading for each talk page message, only for new discussions or discussion topics. Let me know if you ever need anything again. :-) Nightscream (talk) 23:22, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Killer Dwarfs

What exactly was the problem? Nightscream (talk) 01:11, 19 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]


Thank you. Everything OK. Hired Ghoul (talk) 21:27, 19 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, were you just talking about how to add information to the link so that the saved link displays that info as its text? Nightscream (talk) 21:32, 19 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]


That is exactly right. But without asking too much from you. You must get more than dozens of questions on this. You always have an answer to everything on WIKI. You are doing a great service for all.

Ron Haddrick

I could not find any article by that name. Are you sure you spelled it right?

Also, remember that new discussions go at the bottom of one's talk page. Happy Holidays! :-) Nightscream (talk) 22:53, 22 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]


Hi, I did spell it wrongly! Ron Haddrick is his name ...

Sorry!! I got lots on my mind now.Hired Ghoul (talk)

No worries. Just one thing: you don't have to create a separate heading for each message. All the messages in the same discussion can go under the same heading.
As for the source, it does not look like it would pass WP:IRS. You'll also notice that the banner at the top of that webpage says that it is shutting down soon, and that its content is being trasnferred to Blogspot, which is a hosting site for personal blogs. It sounds to me like it's just a fan site, which would fail WP:USERG (which is part of WP:IRS). I would suggest that if there is a particular piece of information on that webpage that you think would make a valid addition to the article, that you try and find a more reliable source for it. Hope that helps. Nightscream (talk) 00:32, 23 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, and Happy Christmas to you too! :-) Nightscream (talk) 19:57, 23 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
