Orphaned non-free media (Image:Mr_Stain_screen4.png)

Thanks for uploading Image:Mr_Stain_screen4.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. — pd_THOR | =/\= | 13:38, 31 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Mr. Stain semi automated peer review

Hi Binarymoron, I reran the peer review script and put it below the previous version. Hope this helps, Ruhrfisch ><>°° 18:46, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • The script is not perfect and does make mistakes. To check for the "vague terms of size", I search for each in the article with search function of my web browser. For example, the word "some" appears in the article three times, once in a direct quote (no need to change that). The words "variety / number/ majority" do not appear at all. "Any" is in it twice, "several", "few" and "many" each appear once, and "all" is there five times. I would look at each occurence and decide if it is worth keeping or not - don't get rid of them just to get rid of them, but my guess is some of the "all" occurrences could go. As for a copyedit, you could try putting in a request at WP:LOCE or ask on the talk page of any WIkiprojects this article falls under. Hope this helps, Ruhrfisch ><>°° 21:41, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I don't know if you read my follow-up response on your article on my talk page, so I'm reposting here with additional remarks.

For the episodes, a table approach might look cleaner and more compact, such as found in the GA Smallville (season 1) or Cold Feet (series 5) episodes list. Obviously, the example headers would need to be modified and the layout changed. I'm not sure how the episode screencaps could be integrated.

Why are the episodes are called Volumes in the article section? Aren't they called Episodes in the series?

The write-ups on a few of the episodes don't exactly match the official site write-ups. The article describes Clay as fashioning a bust, but the site says it's only a face (mask?). In 'Fishing rod', the site mentions multiple baby fish and their mother; in the article it reads like a single baby and mentions a father, i.e. "the baby of the fish yearning for his father".

I've taken out several common word wikilinks, but have left in several I normally wouldn't because linking them is closer to a judgement call. I'm not convinced that words such moral, refrigerator, paradise, exotic, mystical, comically, or seducing need to be wikilinked. Generally, you should link to a word for more background on the concept it introduces and addresses, and should not link to a word simply to act as a dictionary definition (you can do that for very unusual or difficult words, but then people usually link to the wikitionary).

That's all for now; I may have a few more items later. If you get these issues resolved, I think at least two tags on the article could be removed and perhaps all three. There is still cleanup left to do, but overall it reads quite a bit better than when the tags were placed. You've done a lot of work there. -- Michael Devore (talk) 07:36, 21 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your suggestion (and sorry for the horridly late reply). The issue with the quotes is not really determining which words are in quotes, but what the quotes are. For example, there are straight/curly quotes, and many templates like {{cquote}} are used, which makes it quite difficult to check. (by the way, the script is in JavaScript).
