Ghost Adventures episode summaries

What happened to the summaries on List of Ghost Adventures episodes? serioushat 13:15, 2 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I was wondering that myself when I checked the page a few days ago. I don't know what happened, but I wasn't the one to delete the summaries! If you go to the history page, it looks like an unregistered user erased them, but now its fixed, thank you. ~~~~
For the Ghost Lab episode list, can you use less lines for the location cells? serioushat 20:37, 4 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The episode list looks kinda ugly. Please do not overlink the locations. serioushat 23:01, 15 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I'm still getting used to the formats on Wikipedia, for I am still kind of new to this, however, I corrected the "overlinks" on Ghost Lab page. (Though I wouldn't have gone so far as to call it "kinda ugly", the overlinks were more of "unesscessary".)

Just a heads up: you did a great job starting the article on Restaurant: Impossible, but need to be careful of copyright violations. The summary of each episode was clearly taken from another source (I found them, word-for-word several places), and is considered both plagiarism and copyright violation. I've reworked the episode table to simplify it so it fits the space better, sourced it from Food Network and removed the plagiarized summaries. The episode list doesn't really demand a summary of each episode, since the show is so formula-driven. It might be nice to add the cuisine, but that's about it. Check out the tables on Kitchen Nightmares or Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares, and you'll see they're the same.

Second heads up: we need to be prepared for folks who want to add the status of the restaurant (open v. closed) after broadcast. There was a long, long, LONG discussion on KN and RKN about this, and in the end, the problem of sourcing, notability and currency resulted in consensus that no updates should be added. I think we should be consistent with that here, for the same reasons. The show is about what Robert does, not about the restaurant months and months later.

Ghost Hunters International

The flags to be displayed for GHI are the national flags. Wales, Scotland and England are all part of one nation, the United Kingdom. If you don't believe me, then look up their respective articles. Also Puerto Rico is a United States territory, therefore it gets the US Flag as it is not an independent nation. The hidden notes indicating this that you deleted without regard, were placed there for a reason. Using regional flags is incorrect. It is an "InterNATIONal" show "NATION" being the key-word here. Cyberia23 (talk) 11:34, 28 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't realize it was your entry page and wanted it to be "national" flags. I did change all the UK flags because I thought it would be better to represent individual countries of the UK: England, Scotland, and Wales, which I know make up the United Kingdom, but I was trying to show each nations flags, that is all. I also changed the Anerican flag someone had next to Puerto Rico, which is not an American state, but their own country. I am still new to the "rules" of Wikipedia and will respect your wishes, even though I don't totally agree. Sue Kastle (talk) 15:46, 28 January 2011.
Whoa! Puerto Rico is an associated territory, but is not an American state, and it does not use the American flag. It has its own flag, which should be displayed. Check the article here in the Wikipedia. Drmargi (talk) 13:44, 28 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I had nothing to do with this and agree the Puerto Rico is not an American state, that's why I put the Puerto Rican flag icon. However I believe it was changed by the creator of the page (Cyberia23), so you should direct all you "talk" conments to this user as he/she has done with me. Clearly this user does not want to use flags of the countries themselves and reverted all by England, Scotland, and Wales flags to United Kingdom flags, its Cyberia23's page so I cannot change them back. Next time, please check the user history on who edited the page. But I do agree at least PR should have its own flage represented! Sue Kastle (talk) 15:22, 28 January 2011.

Icon & the Black Roses

Hi Sue, That info was not added by myself, but by someone else later. The last time I edited that page, it was this version: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Rotring/Icon_%26_The_Black_Roses&oldid=82293077 but their MySpace http://www.myspace.com/iconblackroses has some info which corroborates the idea that they're back together and set to release a new album. Tell me if you would like me to collaborate with you in making the page worthy of not being speedy-deleted again (here is the conversation on that speedy-deletion: User_talk:Rotring#Icon_and_the_Black_Roses). Best, —Rotring (talk) 12:16, 22 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Sue, As far as I could tell, the problem was that, regardless of whether Icon & The Black Roses are notable enough for Wikipedia (which they do, the administrator didn't seem to question that), my article failed to assess that notability. We can work on the current status of what's on my user namespace (User:Rotring/Icon & The Black Roses and User:Rotring/Icon & The Black Roses (album)) and, when we find it suitable, start the proper pages. I'll try and collect the most links I can on the subject, their MySpace is already a good place to start (until the weekend, tops). —Rotring (talk) 17:13, 23 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

A kitten for you!

Nice work on the Rookie Blue (season 2) article. I am new to wikipedia. :) And I love the show. :)

Hi Matthew, thank you so much and welcome to Wikipedia, it's not everyday you hear (or in this case see) a compliment on this site for created articles! :) Sue Kastle (talk) 19:00, 12 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The Dead Files

Hi Sue Kastle, I just wanted to let you know that I took a look at your recently created article The Dead Files-- There is a good number of citations and references.However, I noticed there are some holes that may need filling: the article does not contain in-line citations, and so doesn't follow Wikipedia style guidelines. And have a beautiful day! Cheers, Amy Z (talk) 19:17, 30 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sue, the episode lineup for season two is incorrect. (See my note in the talk page please). Just trying to help and not very Wiki format wise. Magialuna (talk) 01:02, 10 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. When you recently edited Food Paradise, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Chinese, Greek and Neapolitan (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

No, it's okay...I learn from my mistakes...I corrected every disambiguation you pointed out on Food Paradise with "Dab Solver". I guess I got carried away with adding links. Thanks for pointing them out. Sue Kastle (talk) 22:24, 23 December 2011 (UTC)

Hi. In your recent article edits, you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages:

Food Paradise (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver)
added links pointing to Taffy, Gyro, East Los Angeles, Lasse and East Village

My Ghost Story

Hello, Sue Kastle! I'm glad there's another fan of the show who's ready to add the new episodes as soon as they come out - and you usually beat me to it! Some of the evidence they collect is truly bizarre, especially when it's one of those "snake" anomalies. Weird!

Now, I've got to say I'm a little concerned that the "Summary" sections are simply being cut-and-pasted from the Biography Channel's site. For instance, this diff indicates that you have been copying directly from the summary of the episode.[1] Per WP:COPYVIO, we are not allowed to cut-and-paste text from websites, and especially with no citation at all. Putting quotes around the text does not exclude copyvios. I'm fearing that many of these "Summaries" are actually blatant copyvios, and we cannot have this. I would appreciate a response at your earliest convenience. Cheers :> Doc talk 06:46, 8 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, I will clean it up. Since I created this article page, I've just put in my own summaries with some info that I searched for online. But lately I haven't found any summary info so I decided to look for info on the episodes from the Bio Channel website. Sue Kastle (talk) 17:43, 8 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

We need to move more quickly on this, as I have just done.[2] Once discovered, copyvios must be immediately removed. If you are doing this with this page, there is an obvious question as to whether you are doing it to others... Doc talk 06:29, 9 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
