Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed your recent edit to The Godfather does not have an edit summary. Please provide one before saving your changes to an article, as the summaries are quite helpful to people browsing an article's history. Thanks! Darkwarriorblake (talk) 17:26, 2 April 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. In the future, it is recommended that you use the preview button before you save; this helps you find any errors you have made, reduces edit conflicts, and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history. Thank you. PrimeHunter (talk) 23:36, 2 April 2012 (UTC)
Editing The Godfather without an explanation
Thank you for your recent contributions to Wikipedia. Before saving your edit to any article, please provide an edit summary. So far you have not done so, for example, during your editing The Godfather (film). You made 187 uninterrupted revisions within the period, 10:42 hrs. (GMT) April 1 – 17:13 hrs. (GMT) April 2, without an explanation of the reasons for your changes.
Doing so helps everyone understand the intention of your edit, and prevents legitimate edits from being mistaken for vandalism.
It is also helpful to other users reading the edit history of the page.
With kind regards, Gareth Griffith-Jones (talk) 09:33, 3 April 2012 (UTC)
- Thank you for responding. Having examined many of your revisions, I had never imagined that your editing was anything other than well-intended. Well done! Kind regards, Gareth Griffith-Jones (talk) 15:05, 3 April 2012 (UTC)
I hope that you will take a moment and come to the talk page and join the discussion, here, about your recent edits. I want to be clear that I do not feel you have done anything substantively wrong, it is simply that a very large number of edits, in a relatively short amount of time, especially in the absence of edit summaries, is puzzling to other editors, and it is difficult to discern the reasoning behind the changes you have made. We would like you to take the opportunity to provide that explanation, please. Thanks! ---RepublicanJacobiteTheFortyFive 14:26, 3 April 2012 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for April 5
Hi. When you recently edited The Godfather, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages William Reynolds, Enforcer and Associate (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Thanks for the work on The Godfather
Thanks for your work on The Godfather. My edits there are not meant to disrespect your contribution in any way. Your ideas are fine. As I'm sure you are aware, everyone on Wikipedia is edited, both of us included. I don't expect all my suggestions will be accepted, and neither will all of yours. Thanks. --Ring Cinema (talk) 17:18, 5 April 2012 (UTC)
Baccano!
I've noticed that you've nominated Baccano! for GA. Makes me a bit jealous as there haven't been many editors other than me (though I've ignored it lately). But then that's my problem (Ack! I'm having OWN problems!) and it's not your fault I was too lazy to nominate it myself. You're welcome to it. Anywho, I think the reception section it still a bit short, even for a GA, though there isn't a shortage of reviews on the talk page. And I seem to remember a discuzsion deciding against flagicons in infoboxes. Hope you don't take those first few sentences seriously. Plain text reads harshly. :P ~Cheers, TenTonParasol 19:39, 18 April 2012 (UTC)
- Oh! I'm alright with it. I was afraid you might read it like that. I don't even know why I left the above message to begin with; it doesn't accomplish much, it's silly, and it reads way too grumpy and upset. Don't cancel the nom, and I'm sorry for any problems, concerns, etc. my silliness may have caused. ~Cheers, TenTonParasol 15:34, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:CowboyBebopBigShot.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Baccano! soundtrack.jpg
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/c/cf/Copyright-problem.svg/64px-Copyright-problem.svg.png)
Thank you for uploading File:Baccano! soundtrack.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.
If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. J Milburn (talk) 20:28, 30 June 2012 (UTC)

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. Drmies (talk) 18:25, 17 September 2012 (UTC)

Just as a note
First, I really appreciate the work you're doing on the BI article; nearly all you've done to date is fine. I did restore those two paras you removed only because the aspects were heavily sourced. One other comment [1] - most of what you did in this edit is fine - a lot was written before the game was out and thus using developer statements to qualify things about gameplay. However, as a note in the future, there is no reason that the developers or other third-party reactions can't be named in the plot or gameplay sections, if they have made a statement about either that helps to clarify the topic, that's great, as that's more out-of-universe and the better style we want. For example, one part you removed (in an earlier edit) was about the comparisons various journalists made about Columbia, including Levine's quote about the Death Star; that information is not inappropriate to include in the plot section, though arguable it is clunky text for the section and removal can be seen as appropriate. But just as a caution that plot and gameplay don't have to be as "pure" from development information, if it flows right and explains things better. --MASEM (t) 14:34, 5 November 2013 (UTC)
- As another note: this edit, while rewriting the prose is good, I'm a bit concerned about using the manual for everything, particularly when we can use third party sourcing for the same; personally I'd use the latter but I can understand using the primary source in other cases. I've opened the question at WT:VG#Manual vs third-party sources for gameplay sections, only as we don't have good advice in this area in general for video games. --MASEM (t) 16:38, 13 November 2013 (UTC)

Irrational edit
Hi Wrath X,
I don't mind shortening Irrational Games to Irrational (or BioShock Infinite to Infinite for that matter), but the reason why I changed the wording because of the following: the sentence is "Irrational and creative director Ken Levine...", which means to say Ken Levine is both director of Irrational Games and creative director at Irrational Games, right? But Irrational Games is only mentioned once before that in the lead and separately in the infobox, and since the sentence starts off with the word "Irrational" directly followed by "and creative director" it might not be immediately clear for the average reader that Irrational Games is meant, and not the adjective irrational. Same goes for the subject of this new section: you could see it as an "edit that is irrational" or an "editing of/at Irrational". I'm not saying that the previous revision was better somehow, but it could be interpreted differently. --Soetermans. T / C 12:44, 12 February 2014 (UTC)
- I understand what you're saying, and good point. I'll rename it to "Irrational Games". --- Wrath X ( talk ) 15:00, 12 February 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks for that, I'm glad I could make you see my point. English isn't my mother tongue, and even though I consider myself to be very proficient in the language, it can be quite hard to explain stuff like that. I've pinged you on the Infinite talk page for another talk. Thanks, and happy editing. --Soetermans. T / C 15:15, 12 February 2014 (UTC)

The Dark Knight/The Dark Knight Rises Country of Origin
The American Film Institute does not credit the United Kingdom as the country of origin for either The Dark Knight or The Dark Knight Rises so this is why the AFI citation was placed. The American Film Institute only cites Great Britain as the country of origin in Batman Begins; this was because Syncopy Inc. had a larger role in that film than in either The Dark Knight or The Dark Knight Rises. I'm inclined to side with the American Film Institute because these films are the intellectual property of an American film studio (Warner Bros.) and were produced by an American production company (Legendary Pictures). Syncopy Inc. was cited as a production addition namely due to the fact that it Christopher Nolan's company, but to warrant a country of origin for solely Syncopy Inc. is not wise.

Wikipedia's Template:Infobox film explicitly uses the Lumiere project database to define country of production, stating that "defining the nationality of a film is a complex task." At no point does it mention the American Film Institute as the ultimate single source for film information. Other sources such as the British Film Institute and Lumiere itself must be taken in to account. Out. Wrath X 7:58, 3 February 2015 (UTC)
- All major film schools are associated with the American Film Institute and this in its itself created the reputation it currently has. Furthermore, this was an American production done by Legendary Pictures which was the primary production company on the set. Einsteinbomb (talk) 17:04, 3 February 2015 (UTC)
- Did you work on the film? How do you know which company was on set? The film credits state "Warner Bros. Pictures presents, in association with Legendary Pictures, a Syncopy Production". The film is explicitly stated to be "a Syncopy Production". Also, two of the film's three producers are Emma Thomas and Christopher Nolan, both of whom are the heads of Syncopy. That means something.
- Did you even read Template:Infobox film? It exists for a reason. Regardless of what you and I think, Template:Infobox film states "defining the nationality of a film is a complex task. There are no widely accepted international or even European definitions of the criteria to be used to determine the country of origin of a film." Consequently "preference is given to reliable databases like BFI, AFI, or Variety." It doesn't matter if YOU think the American Film Institute is the most important source, because Wikipedia doesn't. Template:Infobox film treats the AFI on equal standing as other sources, such as the British Film Institute. Wrath X 17:33, 3 February 2015 (UTC)
- Warner Bros. is the distributor of the film (owns the intellectual property) but Legendary Pictures was the main production company of the film along with DC Comics. This is why it's introduced that way, friend. Syncopy Inc. was involved as well but mainly as a producer credit towards Christopher Nolan, Legendary Pictures was the main production arm of the film. Look up Legendary Pictures and you'll see it was this production company that brought The Dark Knight to Chicago and set up everything with regards to the production of the film, this truly is quite easy as any search would suffice. Nobody is removing any sort of citation for the British Film Institute so your point is moot. Einsteinbomb (talk) 18:28, 3 February 2015 (UTC)

Man of Steel
The American Film Institute does not credit the United Kingdom as the country of origin for Man of Steel. Einsteinbomb (talk) 07:01, 3 February 2015 (UTC)
