Why this edit? Please comment here. —bender235 (talk) 17:39, 1 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks!

Thanks for the barn star! ;) I would love to work as a team with you on this. Dexter has some pretty good episode articles (from what I see you've created), but it's character articles could use some work. I'd also like to see Rita's article reach GA status. I'm going to put some more work into it later tonight. HorrorFan121 (talk) 19:35, 27 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sure thing. It's definitely going to need a lot of work to reach GA status, for instance the entirety of the seasons information will need to be revised and perhaps a Reception of her character section. For some really good examples of character articles, you should go to the Lost characters, there are some really good articles there. I'll help out as much as I can. ^____^ That Ole' Cheesy Dude (Talk to the hand!) 21:12, 27 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I concur. A lot of work will be needed for it to get there. I'm willing to put in the work for it. I know that Rita's article will need a development section, and the reception of the character in general. Do you think we need the seasons information though? I covered most of it in the television section. Either way...I'm glad I got someone on board. ;) PS: Do you know any solid sources that pertain to critical reception of Rita or Julie Benz's portrayal? That would really help out. HorrorFan121 (talk) 22:57, 27 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
IGN should have a few nods to Julie Benz's talents that we could lift some quotes off. For instance: "we saw more of Rita's sexual issues and insecurity, well portrayed when Rita and Dexter double date with Deb and her boyfriend and Rita" in [1]. It would probably be a good idea to put in her awards too: She won a Satellite Award for Best Acress, and a Saturn Award for Best Actress and a Scream Award for Best Horror Actress, all found in List of awards and nominations received by Dexter, along with the joint Screen Actors Guild Award of 2009 and 2010. That Ole' Cheesy Dude (Talk to the hand!) 23:34, 27 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, thanks. A user uploaded the main image for deletion. I'm not sure what to do about it. Do you think a screen shot would be better? HorrorFan121 (talk) 23:51, 27 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, that's probably a better idea, take a screenshot, make sure that it's low resolution, so that it can be accepted under wiki policy, this time you should probably consider giving it a Non-free use media rationale under the reasoning that no other images of its type can be found because they are all copyrighted under Showtime. Also, I've now added an awards section to the page, but it still needs a few references, which I'll work on. ^____^ That Ole' Cheesy Dude (Talk to the hand!) 23:58, 27 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I'll see what I can do. I loved that picture though. :( Oh well. I have the DVD's so I'll go through and see if I can find a suitable image. Thanks for adding the reception section! HorrorFan121 (talk) 00:11, 28 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
How about the new one I just uploaded? I think it suites the article, and follows the guidelines.HorrorFan121 (talk) 00:31, 28 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
That's far better. I've templated the image and given it media rationales, so I think we should be all clear on that one. You might want to change the caption now however, because it is no longer a promotional image. Another thing, when removing the seasonal info, try saving the references by integrating them into what you've done thus far. That Ole' Cheesy Dude (Talk to the hand!) 00:42, 28 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for doing the copy edits! I can't put a lot of work into Rita's article tonight, but definitely tomorrow. It's coming along nicely. HorrorFan121 (talk) 23:44, 28 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
That's fine, tonight I'm not going to be able to do a thing on Wikipedia I'm afraid, but you go right ahead. I have one problem with the article, that is: The conception and casting section should contain information solely on the beginning of her character, so the "The Getaway" information is going to have to be moved to a development section. ^____^ But, really good work. That Ole' Cheesy Dude (Talk to the hand!) 15:17, 29 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I've decided to do a little list of things that could be altered to improve the article, I'll try to do some of them.
  • Perhaps a section pertaining to her past? Since nothing is mentioned of her history with Ackerman and Paul..
  • Nothing is mentioned of her from her role in season five, in the first episode, that might deserve a sentence. checkY
  • The literature section needs improving, but I can't really do that because I couldn't stand the books (I felt they were badly written), so I can't do anything with it.
  • Already aforementioned "conception and casting" move needed. checkY
  • A critical reception section is needed. checkY
  • I need to put in links to the awards years. checkY
OK, great. That Ole' Cheesy Dude (Talk to the hand!) 15:26, 29 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, I put some more work into it. I added a critical reception section and merged it with your part about the awards. I split up the conception and casting section and took The Getaway information and started a development section. I haven't picked up the books before either. :/ Not sure what to do about that. The information in the Literature section was the original differences from novels section that was at the bottom of the page. HorrorFan121 (talk) 05:45, 30 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Right, well that's all pretty awesome, I reckon it's ready for its submission to Good Article status. :) You might want to consider a peer review before submission, to get people to review it for errors and to get it some recognition, but you don't have to. That Ole' Cheesy Dude (Talk to the hand!) 22:35, 30 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, I'm going to post a request for a peer review. The only thing I'm worried about is the Literature section. You've already copy edited so it should be in pretty good shape grammar wise. Thanks so much for your help on it! ;) HorrorFan121 (talk) 02:01, 31 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

An editor peer reviewed Rita's article here:Wikipedia:Peer review/Rita Bennett/archive1. I'm going to need to find some way to incorporate new, sourced information in the Literature section. I strongly disagree about removing the main image as this editor suggested. HorrorFan121 (talk) 20:50, 8 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Nomination of season one episode articles of House for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the articles Paternity (House), Occam's Razor (House), Maternity (House), Damned If You Do, The Socratic Method (House), Fidelity (House), Poison (House), DNR (House), Histories (House), Detox (House), Sports Medicine (House), Cursed (House), Control (House), Mob Rules (House), Heavy (House), Role Model (House), Babies & Bathwater, Kids (House), Love Hurts (House) and Honeymoon (House) are suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

Because You Left/Dr. Candle

Hello Thecheesykid, I was just wondering, since you're helping out on the Lost pages (thanks by the way), and you also seem to realize that the certain IP continually removes the comments about "Dr. Candle", do you think there's anything that can be done? Since the beginning, we've never commented (to my recollection) what he calls himself in any specific episode, thus, this episode should be no different. Also, it's usually been IPs (this same one for the last few months) that have changed it; all actual members seem to agree that it isn't needed. Do you think there's anything we can do? Cheers, and please keep up the good work. --HELLØ ŦHERE 21:08, 4 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there! I reviewed Because You Left, and just have a few suggestions to be resolved. You can find the review here. In the review, I also noted the edit wars going on with the article (which I see you discussed above). Has that been resolved? Thanks, Ruby2010 talk 22:30, 7 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]


Your GA nomination of Dark City (1998 film)

Hello, I just wanted to introduce myself and let you know I am glad to be reviewing the article Dark City (1998 film) you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. Viriditas (talk) 11:02, 3 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The article Dark City (1998 film) you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold . The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needed to be addressed. If these are fixed within seven days, the article will pass, otherwise it will fail. See Talk:Dark City (1998 film) for things which need to be addressed. Viriditas (talk) 01:22, 5 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there,

I noticed that you've been doing some great undoing of edits that are vandalism, so I've given you the rollback tool.

Please read up on the tool at WP:ROLLBACK to see the much greater and faster benefit you will have from being able to "rollback" vandalism much quicker. If you are looking to help vandal fight, then may I suggest you also try using Huggle, a great anti-vandalism tool?

Hope this helps,

Lost

Hey there. You're doing a great job with the Lost articles (I was afraid of being the only one still improving those...). I even wonder which ones are you focusing on next. But I gotta ask: should Lost (season 5) really be at the Good Article nominations, when seasons 1 through 4 are Featured Lists instead of Articles? Thanks. igordebraga 01:58, 5 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

That's a very good point, thanks for telling me. I'll see if I can get it and possibly Season 6 as featured lists at some point later. That Ole' Cheesy Dude (Talk to the hand!) 07:44, 5 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

If possible, give some input here. igordebraga 17:46, 15 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism

Great job on your work fighting vandalism. I noticed that you're not warning the users, however. WP:VAND suggests I add the following message:

Hello. Regarding the recent revert you made: you may already know about them, but you might find Wikipedia:Template messages/User talk namespace useful. After a revert, these can be placed on the user's talk page to let them know you considered their edit was inappropriate, and also direct new users towards the sandbox. They can also be used to give a stern warning to a vandal when they've been previously warned. Thank you.

Have a nice day! Roodog2k (talk) 19:46, 5 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Lost season 3

Hi there! I am beginning my attempt to promote all of Lost's third season to a Good Topic. As you've already been involved in Lost episode articles, would you be interested in helping edit the third season and expand a few of its episodes? I made a template, User:Ruby2010/Other interests#Lost season 3, that lists what articles need some TLC (14 or so in all). If you're so inclined, feel free to pick whichever episodes interest you the most. Thanks, Ruby2010 comment! 20:16, 5 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Bollywood shollywood

Do you seriously think this editor is doing good? I just reverted most of their edits because they are randomly removing properly cited material from articles (even FAs) and leaving them broken with dangling citation name tags. BollyJeff || talk 19:11, 6 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure the editor means harm, I just think they're trying to remove exaggeration from articles, but don't quite know how to go about referencing their own claims. If they go too far, they should be warned however. That Ole' Cheesy Dude (Talk to the hand!) 19:18, 6 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Please.

You could at least leave me a more specific message instead of substituting {{uw-vandalism2}}. What was wrong with my changes? I was redoing an edit of which I am fairly certain that it was not vandalism. I feel offended right now. Ian (178.37.151.76 (talk) 19:48, 6 May 2011 (UTC))[reply]

Well, I am definitely capable of making mistakes. To clarify controversial edits, try to explain your actions by putting it in edit summaries. Your edit removed half of the article and the images you removed from the page were pretty rational. Sorry to have caused offence. --That Ole' Cheesy Dude (Talk to the hand!) 19:57, 6 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Reviewer granted

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged revisions, underwent a two-month trial which ended on 15 August 2010. Its continued use is still being discussed by the community, you are free to participate in such discussions. Many articles still have pending changes protection applied, however, and the ability to review pending changes continues to be of use.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under level 1 pending changes and edits made by non-reviewers to level 2 pending changes protected articles (usually high traffic articles). Pending changes was applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:PendingChanges.

For the guideline on reviewing, see Wikipedia:Reviewing. Being granted reviewer rights doesn't grant you status nor change how you can edit articles even with pending changes. The general help page on pending changes can be found here, and the general policy for the trial can be found here.

Rita Re-Nomination

Hey, Cheesy Kid! I just noticed Rita's talk page pop up on my watchlist and realized that you renominated it. I feel kind of guilty shoving it off in the back for a while, but I've been focusing a lot on the Glee related articles. The only really big problem during the GAN was the fact that the literature section was really lacking detail and should have been expanded on. They also suggested a second copy-edit to tighten up the prose a little. Not sure where to go from there. I would love to tag team again if you want? HorrorFan121 (talk) 03:12, 7 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm...it looks longer now. I can try and pull together some book reviews and interviews about the books later tonight.

Maliki edit explanation

I was editing the Maliki page in order to remove Salafi propaganda - the citation of line that I deleted led to an ebook which was a Salafi manual presenting complete misrepresentations and misinterpretations of the method of prayer according to the Maliki school.

Anthropomorphism

It has been well established through the works of Ibn Taymiyyah, Ibn Qayyim, Abdul Wahhab, Ibn Baz and other Salafi scholars that their aqeedah (creed) was/is 'anthropomorphic'. As pseudo-revivers of the Islamic religion through the 14th to 18th century, these scholars, may Allah forgive them, beginning with Ibn Taymiyyah, assigned Allah anthropmorphic attributes. There are four creeds in Islam: Athari, Ashari (majority), Maturidi and finally Anthropomorphism. These creeds deal with Allah's attributes in different ways, with the 'Salafi' Anthropomorphic creed being heretical. Please accept my changes. Having read a lot regarding this issue, I think you changing what I have edited and reporting me is unfair. - 78.150.69.16
