WikiProject Universal Parks & Resorts
Hello McDoobAU93. Thank you for your recent contributions on articles related to the Universal Parks & Resorts. I'd like to invite you to become a part of the Universal Parks & Resorts task force, a task force of WikiProject Amusement Parks, which aims to improve the quality of all Universal Park & Resort related articles on Wikipedia. Feel free to leave a message on the talk page, hope to see you over there! Snowman Guy (talk) 01:04, 1 July 2010 (UTC) |
Possibly...I sure hope not, though.
I blocked a similar username the other day and that same username just popped up again with "101" tossed on the end of it. I just initiated a sock investigation with CU. Those alternate characters in the usernames, all-too-obvious usernames and obvious targets tell me these two accounts may be the dingalings from ED or 4chan who've discovered the LTA page and are creating copycats. There's one more reason I think that these are copycats, but I don't want to reveal it here. --PMDrive1061 (talk) 18:34, 5 July 2010 (UTC)
- Right after I posted this on your talk page, I saw the SPI go up, and your explanations there as well. No worries. I'll keep my eyes open on the usual target articles, just the same. --McDoobAU93 (talk) 18:37, 5 July 2010 (UTC)
"Tangled"/"Rapunzel" Title talk
I found the info on the Magic Forum pages at photosmagiques.com, and several countries (Germany, Netherlands, Austria, Switzerland and Belgium) will use "Rapunzel" instead of "Tangled" as the film title. I'll post a reference later as Opera does not allow such. NoseNuggets (talk) 1:35 PM US EDT July 14 2010
RfC
I have added a Outside view by Tenmei at Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Teeninvestor. I would very much appreciate your impression, especially
- (a) if you can suggest a way to improve the clarity of the writing and/or
- (b) if you construe any part of the diff as insufficiently moderate and forward-looking.
As you will guess, I invested quite a bit of time in drafting this; and I want to encourage you to contact me by e-mail with any constructive comments and criticism. --Tenmei (talk) 19:32, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
Re: Disney Edits
In the case of the Mulan edit, I was only stating what Zhou explicitly said himself. His wife begged him to "go after her," which he could have done by borrowing a neighbor's horse or something. His wife said "she could be killed!" Emphasis on the word "could." Zhou replied by saying "If I reveal her, she will be."
So, that is not speculation; Zhou explicitly stated it himself.Wikieditor1988 (talk) 18:53, 1 August 2010 (UTC)
- Just checked my DVD copy ... there is no emphasis on "could" in Fa Li's statement. That said, I'd be willing to let the statement in if it sticks purely to Fa Zhou's own words, since it establishes the risk that Mulan is taking in assuming her father's place. As to the second edit in the plot, how do we determine that she "cheated" to complete the task of retrieving the arrow? For all we do know, that was the intent of the task, to elicit original thinking. The only rule set out in the task was to retrieve the arrow with the brass weights on their wrists, which Mulan did without any trickery or deception (which "cheating" implies). Frankly, I'm looking at the entire plot now since it's close to 1000 words, and I don't like the "buddy" usage in there, personally. I'd welcome any suggestions or ideas that get the plot down to about 400-700 words, per WP:FILMS. --McDoobAU93 (talk) 21:56, 1 August 2010 (UTC)
Thousand Trails
The editor tagged the article Thousand Trails with "advert," but I would ask the editor to take a second look at the article and its sources. I was the originator of the article and made every effort to make it objective. It appears that a previous article on the topic was removed for blatant advertising, but I had no connection to that article or knowledge of its contents. Jessdave (talk) 22:25, 1 August 2010 (UTC)
DYK for Space Hawk
On 11 August, 2010, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Space Hawk, which you created or substantially expanded. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check ) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |

RfC Teeninvestor
Please notice what I have posted here. I wondered about inviting Teeninvestor to comment; but I was uncertain about how best to go about it. Roger Davies suggested here that one of my mentors might be willing to notify him.
This may not be necessary nor appreciated. If it appears to be timely and reasonable, would you post a note on Teeninvestor's talk page? --Tenmei 03:59, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
- Nihonjoe notified Teeninvestor here. --Tenmei (talk) 15:55, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
Watchlist
Please take note of Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Korea#Requested move discussion at Talk:Eulsa Treaty and watchlist Talk:Eulsa Treaty#Requested Move, especially in the context established here.
I endorse Nihonjoe's summary of the substance of my scrupulously mild comments.
I am especially eager for your close scrutiny of any further comments about the role of mentors, if it develops an issue. --Tenmei (talk) 16:05, 26 August 2010 (UTC)
Walt Disney Motion Pictures
Oh, sorry about that. I didn't actually write the information on Miramax (or read it all the way through, for that matter) though I re-added it when I noticed that someone else had deleted it. I was under the impression that it was being deleted due to Disney's sale of Miramax, and I never would have put it back had I known it didn't feature a neutral POV. Again, I appologise. 98.118.124.145 (talk) 21:14, 16 September 2010 (UTC)
Adopt-a-user reminder
Hello, I have completed a general cleanup of the adopter information page for the adopt-a-user project, located here. During my cleanup, I have removed several inactive and retired users. In order to provide interested adoptees with an easy location to find adopters, it is essential that the page be up-to-date with the latest information possible. Thus:
- If you are no longer interested in being an adopter, please remove yourself from the list.
- If you are still interested, please check the list to see if any information needs to be updated or added - especially your availability. Thank you.
- You are receiving this message because you are listed as an adopter here.
