I attempted to provide some feedback on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amazon_Kindle. It was instantly rejected: "Your post has been rejected by a software filter that suggests it may have violated Wikipedia's feedback guidelines. Please revise your post and try again." I read the feedback guidelines and could not even guess why it was rejected. My feedback was: I wanted more information about the Kindle AZW format, and the info here was contradicted by another wikipedia article (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_e-book_formats) --203.12.172.254 (talk) 03:23, 23 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

That filter prevents IPs from adding...any links? Seriously? IPs cannot add links in feedback? Well, that filter was created by an actual Wikimedia staffer, so I doubt anyone is going to fix it. I'll bug him about it and see if this is really necessary. Someguy1221 (talk) 03:28, 23 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

That said, unless and until this is changed, you can add links to other Wikipedia articles using brackets, as in [[Link title]]. Someguy1221 (talk) 03:31, 23 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Boobytrap (talk · contribs · logs)

--Boobytrap (talk) 16:30, 25 October 2012 (UTC) I thought that an article I wrote some years ago as boobytrap had been deleted long ago because that was what I was informed. Now I want to post a new article in my own name (no pseudonyms) and I want to make a new account for that purpose, but find it impossible. What do I do to solve this problem?[reply]

If you want to make a new account, just log out of this one and register a new one. Alternatively, request a name change at WP:CHU. Or are you asking, can you create a new article about yourself? Someguy1221 (talk) 08:43, 26 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

My comments about the article on The Phantom of Liberty was not to be published. It was a sort of "Letter to the Editors." The text was "I wrote before about this article and re-read it to make sure my suggestions were right. They are. I love the fact that it "is written like a personal reflection or essay rather than an encyclopedic description of the subject." I do not know what the editors mean by that, but I just like it the way it is. As a matter of fact, I do not agree with the suggestions of the editors: the plot is carefully described and is not too long. If a reader wants to skip it, he/she can do it easily enough (I have done with the plot descriptions of other movies). The style is fine, the research has been properly conducted, it offers opinions of critics and other reviewers which are efficient since they provide different perspectives of the film. For my classes on this movie I used basically the same sources. Besides, in the Reference section it offers the reader the opportunity to read the complete reviews cited. To tell my truth, the only thing wrong with this excellent article are the calls from the editors to make the plot more "concise" (which does not mean better) or to change the style to make it more "encyclopedic" (for me that's means more cold and boring). There is no need to lead the potential editors in any way. Just leave the door open with the simple word "Edit" like is done in most articles. If this article were presented as a paper in my university course I would grade it "A" (since in my University we do not have the grade "A+") and I would return it to the author with my congratulations and my encouragement to keep on writing good reviews of hard films to study, like Le Fantôme de la liberté (El fantasma de la libertad) truly is.
