Macedonian in Australia

Vandalism [1]? Macedonian is a real language. D O N D E groovily Talk to me 12:32, 25 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It's not one of the most commonly spoken languages in Australia though. Macedonians have been vandalising Demographics of Australia, and other articles, for quite some time now. See Talk:Demographics of Australia#Sneaky vandalism for more. --AussieLegend (talk) 12:38, 25 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Chocolate naming.

Hello AussieLegend.

Sorry to bother you but can I ask your opinion on something?

Do you know if the "Types of chocolate" page should have the word "chocolate" capitalized or not? I know I could've posted on its discussion page but it's kinda quiet there and seeing as your pretty good at editing (or aren't you? O.o), I thought I'd ask. AnimatedZebra (talk) 12:39, 25 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

According to Wikipedia:Naming conventions (capitalization) it shouldn't be capitalised. --AussieLegend (talk) 12:42, 25 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Cool, thanks! AnimatedZebra (talk) 16:12, 25 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Glee Project Teenage Dream

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RTwBsJr7bZ8 Youtube videos are not meant to be used as sources, and cannot be. However, Oxygen has it up as well. This qualifies under WP:V. If it doesn't, EVERY SINGLE music video and homework assignment mentioned in the article would require a source, as only video is evidence. 99.162.156.148 (talk) 23:51, 25 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Verifiability requires "that all quotations and anything challenged or likely to be challenged be attributed in the form of an inline citation that directly supports the material." While the video may be evidence, it still needs to attributed with an inline citation. There's nothing stopping YouTube videos being used as a source if they don't breach copyright. --AussieLegend (talk) 08:37, 26 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The video was uploaded by the official channel of the show. That does not breach copyright. You are more than welcome to cite it if you want. I have not quite grasped how to cite, even after 5 years. 99.162.156.148 (talk) 01:17, 27 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding Nickandmore

On the Jessie page, I used Nickandmore as a reference because it directly pulled the actual press release from the upfront and put it on its website. I don't have access to archives of the press releases on Disney Channel Medianet so I wasn't able to put the link on Wikipedia on time. --DisneyFriends (talk) 15:16, 31 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, I just found the press release on Disney Channel Medianet. I am going to revert your edit but change the reference to the appropriate links. --DisneyFriends (talk) 15:18, 31 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Wow, I just blamed myself for putting that up but I never put it up. >.< Anyway, I fixed it regardless. --DisneyFriends (talk) 15:20, 31 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding Sydney Harbour Bridge

I need a reputable source? I work on the bridge. Mate, show me the 'reputable source' that backs up the fact that the bridge is painted from one side to the other. Think about it, if that were the case, one end would look like complete rubbish by the time they get to the other side. It's simply not true. Hence me writing "a common misconception". Whatever, buddy.
