EvilCouch, Since you're a Ranger, can you help me with specifics and citations for the part about the uniform on Jesse Macbeth? I am poring over AR 670-1 looking for verifiable stuff. I copied that part of the article from a blog post, and would much prefer precise language there. Bugmuncher 07:02, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Bugmuncher, sure. I'll go ahead and see what I can do there. You've done a great job on the article so far. EvilCouch 11:57, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Terrific article over at US Army Combatives School! Thank you for this. - Rorybowman 22:58, 10 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks also for the link to it from the MAC section in combatives. Sometimes the simplest edits are the most brilliant. Rorybowman 19:30, 6 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, man. You've done a lot of good work to the article as well. EvilCouch 19:55, 6 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi; I noticed that you clarified that the Vertigo comic was actually 100 Bullets. Did you find that out yourself, or did you see that posted elsewhere? Captainktainer * Talk 18:09, 6 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Both. I had seen it on a forum posting and then verified it for myself, as I actually have that trade paperback. I had originally posted it in the 100 Bullets page. Unfortunately, since the post was from a forum and not an ordinarily valid reference, I didn't cite my reference. I was somewhat tempted to create an image comparing a scan of the back of the trade with a screen capture from the video, but as it's just a trivia tidbit, I didn't think it really warranted it.

Hi. Sorry to bother you, but it looks we might have an edit conflict at speedster (comics) between myself and Ace Class Shadow. If you could chime in with your opinion on that article’s talk page, so that we can achieve some sort of consensus, it would be appreciated. Thanks. Nightscream 10:52, 10 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Looking into it. EvilCouch 11:26, 10 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Enough

I think we could have left at least one of my behind the scenes photos. People love to see what happens behind the scenes. It totally relates to the Enough article. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Techclub (talkcontribs) 17:44, 23 November 2006.

No, not really. That's what the IMDB's for. EvilCouch 05:57, 24 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
They don't have exclusive behind the scenes photos like I had on the page— Preceding unsigned comment added by Techclub (talkcontribs) 18:31, 10 December 2006 (PST) (UTC)
The content or lack of content of the IMDB is not the point here. Photos that don't illustrate anything pertaining to articles do not belong in the Wikipedia as per WP:NOT. I invite you to look at other movie articles on the Wikipedia. By and large, there are no behind the scenes photos. One feature film is produced much like another. The actors and settings change, but the techniques behind the scenes have remained much the same since the Silver Screen era. Unless a photo demonstrates something unusual about the production process, the photo doesn't really add anything to the article. The lighting picture might be interesting in an article describing how feature films are lit for specific lighting conditions, however the lighting situation is far from unusual and does not demonstrate anything particularly unique about the movie Enough.

Thanks for your message. Indeed, "the machines are simple to use" sounds like original research or advertisement to me. This does not comply with WP:NPOV. I suggest to simply explain how the machine works and then simply let the user decide whether the use is simple or not. Alternatively, one may write: "A survey by Foo Magazine showed that 95 per cent of users viewed the machine as simple (+ source)" if such survey exists. --Edcolins 10:50, 26 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You're welcome. --Edcolins 10:59, 26 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A virtually identical article has been deleted in the past. You might have grounds to speedy it. --Lenin and McCarthy | (Complain here) 16:54, 20 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Heroes

Hello. There is currently a discussion about the possibility of redirecting Heroes to Heroes (TV series) (likely with a redirect disambiguation notice added to the top of that page). Please consider adding your thoughts here: Talk:Heroes#Survey. Thanks! Justen 09:39, 30 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

CombiChrist Page

This edit is far superior to the one that you have posted. I do not mean any offense, but it is true. Please change only what you see as an 'issue' instead of reverting to a page which has little to no information about the band's past —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Bloodbeat (talkcontribs) 20:57, 1 May 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Combichrist Page

Thanks for your organizational update. I am new and was unsure how to do this. It really helps with the 'flow' of the page. I will be updating again soon with some information directly from Andy regarding certain things.
