License tagging for Image:Thisishyony4.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Thisishyony4.jpg. Wikipedia gets hundreds of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 07:39, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

Firstly, I did not remove the codename, but there was no reference for it at all so I would support its removal since it doesn't add anything to the article.

Secondly, the fact that the rest of the article is poor is not a good reason to keep other information that can never be verified. Wikipedia is not a collection of all knowledge and everything here should be verifiable. This doesn't just mean that there's references, it means that there could be references. You can't provide references for a lot of the firmware version stuff (like 'internal versions'), and the rest would be difficult to verify since Nokia does not publish information on firmware releases. Even if it could be verified, a list of firmware versions wouldn't be appropriate per WP:NOT.

Because your one of the regular contributors and as you know there was a discussion on the talk page as to if he was the whole head and he is and theirs the proof User:The Movie Master 1 02:19, 19 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You are insinuating that it is Bonecrusher by saying it is his vehicle mode. They do not identify him as such, and such it's original research to try and say that it is his vehicle, or even slyly say "it looks like his vehicle". It's irrelevant. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a fansite where we can speculate about what vehicle is which, or include non-cameo cameo statements about characters that don't actually appear (i.e. Frenzy doesn't appear in the film, his head does, but the character himself does not).  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 22:53, 2 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Chris Mowry requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. ttonyb1 (talk) 04:20, 23 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thats like the only comment I've posted that seems unhelpful I guess it didn't make much sense the way I worded it and they are worthy of mentioning I wasn't supporting him I was just trying to find references for him and just never saw a source that says its Grindor. Sorry. The Movie Master 1 (talk) 17:32, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Nah, no hard feelings. Despite the movie never naming him, he is called Grindor in the comic books and novel. Also, the game not only mentions his name, but it's the only official source we have for his alt model not being the same as Blackout (see the article). --uKER (talk) 18:05, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Rollback

Ensure you only use rollback correctly, ie its intended usage of reverting vandalism ONLY. This and this were not clear-cut cases of vandalism. In similar cases, it'd have been more prudent to use twinkle or possibly WP:UNDO. This is meant to be a friendly reminder, but misuse of rollback, even if unintentionally, will result in its removal.

Nolasco in RoTF

You reverted[2] an edit of mine, saying that I had no reason for removing. However, I did provide a reason; please see my edit summary.[3] The fact that it has a source is irrelevant; he's not in the movie, so there's no point in him being listed in the cast. EVula // talk // // 00:40, 10 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Just removed it again since I never heard back from you. EVula // talk // // 05:02, 17 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry I didn't get back to you before. I had somehow overlooked your message. I think the information is worth mentioning just like any other pre-release info, such as characters considered for roles, robots' pre-release names, designs, and the likes. I think this is one of the cases when excessive intent for enforcing the rules becomes counter-productive for the article, causing relevant information to get lost, a behaviour discouraged by the guidelines. --uKER (talk) 14:52, 19 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Well, I removed the content (for both him and the dog) and put it on the talk page; see Talk:Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen#Removed content from the Human cast section. I agree that the information could be worked into the article, but not necessarily in the Cast section. EVula // talk // // 15:42, 19 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I wouldn't die if the dog doesn't get a mention. That's kinda trivia, and I reckon it should only be added if it could be done in a way such that it didn't stand out as such. About Nolasco, I don't see anywhere else that it could fit in. I'm not suggesting adding him as a bulleted item as if he actually had a role, but more as a mention at the end of the section. --uKER (talk) 15:49, 19 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I wonder if we could find enough content to create a Casting section. The only problem with that is there aren't too many people that are new; maybe we could pull content away from the Cast section if it talks about what Bay was looking for, etc. Hmm...

Re: Uncivilized behaviour in List of Games for Windows titles

Look mister. Don't tell me what to do. If you are going to update everytime then fine. I want the article to be updated. I don't want things to keep changing constantly such has changing dates. It is a big nuisance. I want to stop adding rubbish in talk page. Also btw iam not all trying to be owner of the article. Iam not sure what to call such edits like this this and this. They are certainly pointless. What exactly are you trying to achieve?. Do you plan updating whenever the game is going to get released?. When the article get larger this will sort of work will cease to exist. Instead of wasting time try to improve articles and get a job in the real life. This is all i can say. If you plan of keeping the changes you done. Then you or anyone can take care of the article. Iam plan of leaving wikipedia has i lot of duties to perform in real life. --SkyWalker (talk) 18:37, 19 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Fine then. Thank you. I removing the article from the watchlist. Regarding Divas. You got it confused. Iam staying in wikipedia just to update List of Games for Windows titles nothing else to be honest. --SkyWalker (talk) 19:07, 19 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Iam not sure what answer should i give you. Look at the history of the article tell me how frequently the article is getting updated. Iam not sure how policy such has OWN has any effect what i was doing. --SkyWalker (talk) 19:21, 19 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

AfD nomination of Chris Mowry

An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is Chris Mowry. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Chris Mowry. Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.

Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:13, 29 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Mr. Bean - plus an image war

Thanks for taking care of the Beaner. I was also curious about your inpu on a debate currently taking place on images for Transformers articles. I think articles on characters justify one picture per CHARACTER, but another Wikipedia editor thinks it should be limited to one picture per PAGE, sometimes 2 if necessary. So he went in and removed several pictures from pages like Blackout (Transformers) - Now only G1 and movie Blackout have pictures, but the other Blackouts like the one from Energon or the one from Armada have had their pictures removed. What is your thought on this? Mathewignash (talk) 00:31, 19 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Um. Give me a link to the discussion and I'll take a shot at it. --uKER (talk) 06:40, 19 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop reverting and take your concerns to Talk:District 9. Viriditas (talk) 12:17, 25 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

New section opened for your concerns, here. I'm waiting. Viriditas (talk) 12:20, 25 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
You are wrong about the release dates. I suggest you actually look at feature class film articles. The release dates almost always appear in the second or third paragraph. Your attempt to summarize the plot in the lead is also confusing. The film most certainly does not deal with the alien race getting stranded on Earth and their population assigned to a slum. That is the backstory and you are confusing that with the plot. I realize you haven't been here very long, but it might be a good idea to take a step back. Viriditas (talk) 13:05, 25 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Patronizing me now? WTF? --uKER (talk) 13:14, 25 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Have a look at Category:FA-Class film articles. Do any of them mention the exact release date in the first sentence? And, the film is not about the aliens getting stranded or their assignment to the slum. That takes place in the backstory and is explained in the first several minutes of the film. The rest of the film has to do with Wikus and his alien friends. Viriditas (talk) 13:22, 25 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I couldn't find any that had it at the end either for that matter, and I agree with it not being mentioned at all being less awkward than it being slapped in at the end, but there you go. Despite you thinking otherwise, I have it crystal clear that I fortunately don't own the article, and I say fortunately because it means I don't have the obligation to bother getting my ways into your head. Make your changes. If they're OK, they'll stick. If they're not, hopefully someone else will point it out and change it. That's the good thing about it. I deem the issue as finished. See you around. --uKER (talk) 13:40, 25 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Some of them have it, some of them don't. If you don't want it there, remove it - it's really not that important to me. All I'm asking is that instead of blanket reverting everything I add, you make an effort to incorporate my changes in some form or another. That's all. In other words, build around what is there. And if you think you can improve it further, please do so. Viriditas (talk) 13:50, 25 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

UKER, I'm not sure what's going on, but the constant reverts while ignoring the talk page are getting to be annoying. Please do me a favor: The next time you revert, use the talk page to discuss it. And, if you could do that for your last two reverts, I would appreciate it. See you on the talk page. Viriditas (talk) 08:22, 28 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry I missed the discussion on the date. On the other hand, I don't know what is the other revert you'r talking about. --uKER (talk) 09:10, 28 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Now you changed 28 to 20? That contradicts the entire reason for claiming 1982 was the arrival. The film takes place in 2010. Viriditas (talk) 09:45, 28 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I cited my reason in the talk page, with the exact quote from the movie backing it. Unfortunately the dates are a mess, and I'm trying to keep it as coherent as possible, by going by the movie alone. I never saw anything suggesting it's 2010 in the movie itself. If there is, feel free to point it out. --uKER (talk) 09:47, 28 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
This is becoming annoying. The trailer says the aliens arrived 28 years before the setting of the film. If that setting is 1982, then the year must be 2010. Viriditas (talk) 09:51, 28 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not deliberately trying to annoy you. I get nothing out of it. I'm just not letting tie-in media contradict what the movie explicitly states. BTW, let's keep this to the talk page so other people can participate. --uKER (talk) 09:54, 28 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Fine, but you can't have it both ways. If the aliens landed in 1982, then the present day is 2010, which the director has confirmed, and apparently so has the film. Viriditas (talk) 10:00, 28 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Couldn't the trailer be incorrect? The film clearly states that the eviction takes place 20 years after the aliens' arrival, and the film also DOES mention that it's the year 2010 (I know I posted something about this on the D9 talk page, but I noticed a mini discussion taking place here so I followed). Also, please don't take this as an insult or offense to your ability to observe, but in another issue on the D9 talk page you mentioned that you thought that the aliens came to Earth to harvest the fluid from alien technology already present on Earth; if you made an incorrect observation like this, couldn't it be possible for you to have missed the references in the movie that state that the present is 2010? Again, I really mean no offense I just want to get to the bottom of this inconsistency. --Seb0910 (talk) 22:05, 28 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I already said this isn't the place to discuss it. For the time being I'll copy this to D9's talk page. Please don't bring it back here. --uKER (talk) 07:58, 29 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

C. Viper and E. Honda

While I do agree the full name should be used in these cases, as well as in cases like Ken Masters and Sakura Kasugano (where they aren't), there is actually a long standing previous debate caused mainly by User:Mr.bonus you might not be aware of. Basically, everyone was forced to come to the agreement that the name used on the select screen and/or in-game fight for fighting games would be the one used. If the full name was used in either event it'd be used in the article as the most common name, so it wasn't supposed to come across as a preference or bias.

Personally, I'd rather they have the full names because it helps prevent disambiguation needs, but I wouldn't put it past Mr.bonus to return out of the blue again to start an edit war over the issue (which he has done twice at this point successfully...). To find out more, check his contribution history.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 10:47, 7 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Calling my edit "illiterate" here was totally uncalled for. If you wanted to condense it, be my guest, but there was nothing wrong with the sentence. --uKER (talk) 19:24, 18 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I called it an illeterate sentence because it was an illiterate sentence. There were several grammatical errors throughout the sentence that needed correcting. I condensed the sentence because it doesn’t make sense to distinguish that the character appears in both his vehicle and robot modes, as he is a Transformer and that’s what they do...--TriPredRavage (talk) 19:45, 18 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Dance Dance Revolution Extreme

...Is an ongoing massive edit. Do not revert the changes I've made because what you seem to think is not the case. I'm not replacing the entire article with a song list, I've removed the badly written section, much of which contained "information" that's better suited for other DDR articles. Most of the information simply not being encyclopedic. I'm putting together the list of music, courses and sections that can expound on individual music that isn't notable enough to have its own article first because that's what I've chosen to do first. Repeated enlistment for help with the Dance Dance Revolution articles have accomplished nothing and I am truly the only user actively involved in rehabilitating them. I may not know everything about Wikipedia but I do know what I'm doing. What's the rush big fella, don't demolish the house before it's built, etc.

Also, don't use article talk space to lodge personal complaints (or threats of future action). There are placed designed for that. Reverting the damage done to the work in progress article and continuing work... if you'll let me.  æronphonehome  20:16, 20 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I reverted your 4-conductor to 4-contact edit. See [4]. The jack connector is 5-contact. One of the two sleeve-ground contacts is used for plug detection and carries no signal itself. Since the jack connector conducts signal across 3 conductors and ground and accepts 4-conductor plug jack connectors it is more logically consistent to say 4-conductor.

I am not reverting your additional edit to unpipe the link to TRRS connector since I was hesitant to use that pipe when referring to the jack connector anyway. In the comments however, you note that the connector would be TRRRS rather than TRRS although this is completely wrong. Perhaps you were confused because the jack connector schematic shows 5 contacts and you wrongly assumed that the mating plug jack would have to be 5-conductor with 3 rings. Bgkwtnyqhzor (talk) 13:30, 22 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree on both. Wires have conductors. Connectors have contacts. Then, to have four contacts you need to have three rings (TRRRS). I didn't understand your saying I assumed there was five contacts and three rings. I always thought it had four contacts, not five. And if there's actually five contacts as you say, there must be four rings (not three as you suggest). --uKER (talk) 13:34, 22 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
This is not a term special to TRS plug jack connectors, Electrical conductor. Both the jack and plug jack have conductors. Obviously only the jack connector has contacts (although only one of the contacts is a switch contact but that is another matter). The sleeve is a conductor. Ground is a conductor. Without either the circuit would not function so clearly they are not to be discounted. 1-Tip 2-Ring 3-Ring 4-Sleeve. Two of the contacts in the jack connector interact with the sleeve of the plug jack connector. Both go to ground; but one of them is a normally open plug detection switch that closes with the 6th panel mounting pin of the jack connector. The circuit would remain functioning without this contact even though it would become more complex to do certain things without a positive indication of plug detection. This is the reason a third ring is not necessary, because two of the contacts interface with the same conductorplug jack connector contact. From the reference:

The Nokia AV connector is based on a 2.5-mm or 3.5-mm 4-pole connector; see picture: Tip (5) Ring 1 (4) Ring 2 (3) Sleeve (1&2)

The 4-poles are conductors, 1 through 5 are contacts. Contacts 1&2 are separate contacts that interface to the same ground conductor.Bgkwtnyqhzor (talk) 14:51, 22 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
And I suggest that there are two rings (not three or four) because that is how many there are. Bgkwtnyqhzor (talk) 14:55, 22 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Some of my assumptions:
1) The photo [5] shows 5 contacts on the jack connector (which is the connector we are discussing).
2) That same photo shows that a plug jack connector with 4 contacts.
3) A contact can be likened to a conductor. (this seems to be part of where you are arguing, but the two are used interchangeably even in the TRS connector article)
Bgkwtnyqhzor (talk) 15:09, 22 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Clarification: 3) A plug jack connector contact can be likened to a conductor. I make this assumption since the conducting wires interface directly to each plug jack connector contact although the same can not be said for the (6 in this case) conducting wires interfacing with the jack connector. Bgkwtnyqhzor (talk) 15:18, 22 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Would 4-pole be a more satisfactory phrase perhaps? Obviously it refers to the number of conductors in the plug jack connector wire but it doesn't carry as much ambiguity. Bgkwtnyqhzor (talk) 15:43, 22 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Also, I just noticed that I have been transposing the words jack plug. Sorry for any confusion. Bgkwtnyqhzor (talk) 16:17, 22 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I don't know. The whole concept of there being more than two poles sounds pretty awkward to me. Poles come in pairs, so while I'd say it would suit a traditional TRS connector, once we move to the ones with more than one ring, I don't think it's a fitting term. Also, it's probably me, but the word pole makes me think of pole as in pole dancing or pole vaulting. --uKER (talk) 16:39, 22 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Well here's the problem then: conductors is semantically incorrect, contacts is technically incorrect, and poles is also semantically incorrect although in this context it's probably meaningless. At least Nokia uses poles in their specification so it seems to be a reasonable compromise. The whole point is to communicate the number of contacts on the jack plug connector since that is the important detail that is actually visible. Of course that could just be said but that is not technically accessible. For that matter, the TRS connector article (and others) should be revised to be more semantically correct since I am confusing myself trying to read through conflicting articles. Bgkwtnyqhzor (talk) 12:37, 23 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Also there is a weak correlation between the use of pole in this case and Switch#Contact arrangements. The abstract similarity in meaning is approximately referring to a discrete contact interface. Since there are 4 interface points for the contacts this seems to be at least vaguely accurate. Bgkwtnyqhzor (talk) 13:12, 23 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Never mind. The issue is not that severe. Let's leave it as it is. See you around. --uKER (talk) 14:19, 23 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Transformers 2 Revenge Of The Fallen sequel

i have modifyed your edit on transformers 2 sequel because their is'nt a reference saying that this is the final Transformers film.I know this is off topic but you edit Transformers 2 Revenge Of The Fallen way too much i think your a Wikipediaholic. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Anesleyp (talkcontribs) 01:49, 9 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

There. Reverted & sourced. Now, about me editing too much, why should you care? Farewell. --uKER (talk) 02:12, 9 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

TRANSFORMERS

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, adding content without citing a reliable source, as you did to Transformers:Revenge of the Fallen, is not consistent with our policy of verifiability. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you are familiar with Wikipedia:Citing sources, please take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. --Anesleyp (talk) 01:26, 12 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Edit Summaries

I have recently reviewed the edit history for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. It appears that you and Anesleyp are "fighting" (or conflict resolving) through the use of edit summaries. Conflicts between two users, even when pertaining to edit conflicts, should not be discussed in the edit summaries. If you do have an editing conflict, do so on the articles talk page. It even states right here to...

Avoid using edit summaries to carry on debates or negotiation over the content or to express opinions of the other users involved. This creates an atmosphere where the only way to carry on discussion is to revert other editors! If you notice this happening, start a section on the talk page and place your comments there. This keeps discussions and debates away from the article page itself.

If you do have an editing conflict, do so on the article's talk page. And, if you so choose, notify the User, whom you are in conflict with, that you are discussing the matter on the article's talk page. But don't use the edit summary box as a way to discuss something between two users. THAT'S WHY THEY MADE USER TALK PAGES. GO FIGURE!!! ⊥m93 talk. 00:58, 13 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Well I did start a talk page discussion the last time I reverted and he is just ignoring it and reverting me. What do you suggest? --uKER (talk) 12:38, 13 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • I suggest two things:
  1. Notify the other user that editing conflicts and other matters should be handled on the discussion page; not the edit summary. I see you have been discussing on the talk page, but don't add comments to a specific editor about an editing conflict in the editing summary box. That is not what it's for. And continue to press the issue until they as well stop using the editing summary box for such things.
  2. Don't be asking another editor a question about something they did or didn't do on MY talk page. You have an issue with him/her? Take it up on THEIR talk page.
Thanks. ⊥m93 talk. 22:22, 13 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Bummer. I thought you were an admin. That's why I replied to this guy in your talk page. Sorry about that. --uKER (talk) 23:31, 13 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Whether I'm an admin or not... if you have an issue with someone it needs to be handled on the articles talk page or THEIR page. Only do so on my page, when it involves my editing. Not being rude, nor am I upset. Just informing you. ⊥m93 talk. 23:53, 13 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Edit war

Hello. You appear to be involved in an edit war on Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. While the three-revert rule is hard and fast, please be aware that you can be blocked for edit warring without making 3 reverts to an article in 24 hours. You are not entitled to 3 reverts and are expected to cooperatively engage other editors on talk pages rather than reverting their edits. Note that posting your thoughts on the talk page alone is not a license to continue reverting. You must reach consensus. Continued edit warring may cause you to be blocked. Toddst1 (talk) 20:48, 18 June 2009 (UTC) Toddst1 (talk) 15:58, 13 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I don't get the reason for this warning. I have only reverted twice and one of them wasn't a "pure revert" as I added a source to the information I was adding. In any case, why would one get blocked without breaking any established rule? --uKER (talk) 16:10, 13 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Toddst1. I understand the three-revert rule thing very good. I agree with you to a degree, but if you look at the pages history (here) very carefully, you can see UKER has infact only done 2 in 24 HOURS. He's done three, but in longer time than 24 hours. ⊥m93 talk. 22:30, 13 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Grindor or Blackout

How come you keep saying Grindor is a different character from Blackout when Roberto Orci doesnt know wheather they are the same character or not, plus the character seems rusty on some photo's. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dorismann (talkcontribs) 20:44, 13 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Orci may have written the part for Blackout, but the helicopter Blackout turned into was taken out of duty by the army so the character previously know as Blackout was made into another character called Grindor who turns into a similar but definitely different helicopter. See here the Pave Low (Blackout) and the Super Stallion (Grindor). I know the movie is a mess, but it's how it is. --uKER (talk) 23:26, 13 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

One of us was wrong, but I don't think it was me... Cheers! Verbal chat 19:03, 21 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
