Red Links (Channel Four Television Corporation)

Hi Vistadan, Thanks for your edit on Channel Four Television Corporation, however the reason why I created the red link was for a new article that I will be starting in the next few days called 124 Horseferry Road (the Channel Four Building). So it helps to create a red link for a short time. Therefore for this readon alone I am creating the red link again. SethWhales^talk 20:44, 28 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, I understand. Vistadan (talk) 22:16, 28 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for March 24

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Aaton Digital, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Founder. 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.

88 Rising

Hey! Just wanted to see why you removed Jaeson Ma from the founder field of the InfoBox. He's listed as a founder in the following sources. Thanks! :) - https://variety.com/2017/digital/asia/wpp-buys-into-asian-content-platform-88rising-1202450321/ - https://www.crunchbase.com/person/jaeson-ma - http://hashtaglegend.com/post/rise-conference-2018-jaeson-ma-ray-chan

Hey i used your draft to help build a published article of 88rising Topkekin 18:57, 24 January 2018 (UTC)

Nice article! Glad I could help. Vistadan (talk) 22:33, 8 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Rollback granted

Hi Vistadan. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
Rollback should never be used to edit war.
If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
Use common sense.

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Malinaccier (talk) 02:37, 15 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

KSG

Perhaps but it might have been a typo. http://www.xxlmag.com/news/2018/04/kanye-west-teases-takashi-murakami-inspired-art-kids-see-ghosts-kid-cudi/ 1Sire (talk) 19:57, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hey 1Sire, Kanye has "Kid See Ghost" trademarked (link), has the domain http://kidsseeghost.com (link) (also kidsseeghosts.com), and tweeted a few hours ago about a "Kid See Ghost" short film (link). I think we should continue using the name he announced with and wait until he releases music and see whether he uses "Kid See Ghost" or "Kid See Ghosts". What do you think?

Copyright infringement

You need to know that Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously. You must not copy and paste text from sources you find on the web into articles as you did in the article Mysteries and Myths with Megan Fox. I have removed the infringing text and rewritten the last sentence in the synopsis section, but the material you copied is subject to copyright, as is almost everything on the web, and when creating or expanding articles, you should completely rewrite the information from the source using your own words. As the article now stands, about half the content is quotations and that is an unacceptably high percentage. The information could easily be rewritten without the quotations being used. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 11:09, 8 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Cwmhiraeth, I completely understand that Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously and I should have rewrote the quotes in my own words in the first place. Thank you for making me aware of the problem and for removing the infringing text. Vistadan — 12:55, 8 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
