Lightning Rod

Heads up; getting individual reports that LR is in "technical rehearsals" now. Park guests are receiving tickets allowing them to ride, as long as the ride remains functional. Hardly anything encyclopedic, but we should be ready if editors start adding this. --McDoob AU93 18:04, 23 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@McDoobAU93: Thanks for the heads up. By the way, I replied to the thread "Under refurbishment" and WP:TRAVELGUIDE about this sort of thing. The more I think about it, the more we should probably do away with "Testing" at the very least. It's a short-term status that doesn't need to be tracked on an encyclopedia IMHO. Someone could modify the infobox template to automatically change testing to "under construction" when someone enters it. --GoneIn60 (talk) 18:11, 23 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Images

Greetings.

I am new to Wikipedia and I was wondering how I can add a image of Twisted Colossus and Colossus to its webpage?

Marth The Hero King – Thanks for your interest in contributing to Wikipedia! I don't have a lot of experience with uploading images, but I suggest you visit WP:IMAGE. There are links to tutorials from that main page. Good luck! --GoneIn60 (talk) 01:44, 10 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Incredible Hulk coaster

The Hulk isn't SBNO. The park has been testing the ride since last month . ROBLOXfan123 (talk) 19:08, 10 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

ROBLOXfan123: If you can cite a reliable source to back the claim, feel free to change it to testing. Just so you're aware, we've been discussing the possibility of removing short-term statuses from the infobox (such as "testing") at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Amusement Parks. Feel free to weigh in with your opinion there if you want. Encyclopedia's should have a long-term view in mind, and items like this that require up-to-the-minute status updates don't really belong in an encyclopedia. --GoneIn60 (talk) 20:30, 10 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Another heads-up

I really appreciate your help and editing of all the amusement park articles here. I wanted to ask you to put the various Six Flags Over Georgia articles on your radar/watchlist for the next week. They Tweeted that they would "say good-bye" to a "30-plus-year-old attraction" on Thursday in order to make way for the 2017 installation, whatever it may be. I've already had to revert one edit adding speculation to one park ride. I'd be grateful for any oversight you can provide, depending on your schedule. --McDoob AU93 02:08, 14 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

McDoobAU93: Sure thing. My presence will be limited over the next week, as I'm in the process of getting my home listed on the market, but I'll definitely keep an eye out when I'm on. --GoneIn60 (talk) 14:13, 14 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Independence Day reviews

My bad dude. I don't check Talk pages or edit summaries very often, I assumed since the reverts from "negative" to "mixed" were often awkward worded it was done by random IP users and wasn't a consensus. It's all in good faith (as most reviews and metacritic/RT imply negative reception) but it's only Wikipedia so I'm not about to start a war over an opening sentence haha. I'll leave it be and sorry for stressing you out. TropicAces (talk) 18:38, 24 June 2016 (UTC)tropicAces[reply]

TropicAces, no problem. I figured you weren't reading the alerts or edit summaries, considering you usually collaborate well with other editors. Just an FYI that there have been many long discussions that we as editors cannot interpret the numbers ourselves, and while "mixed" normally gets by fine, "negative" and "positive" usually cause a lot of edit-warring without a source cited right next to the word or sentence. Past discussions have determined "not well-received" was fine in the absence of a source that calls it "negative". Also, we should permit short, concise statements in the lead that summarize some of the feedback. I'll reinstate it since you're dropping your opposition, but if you change your mind, feel free to join the discussion on the article talk page. Thanks! --GoneIn60 (talk) 19:39, 24 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not assume "Bad Faith"

Please refrain from accusing people of being disruptive without a proper rationale as you did here [1] To do so is to assume bad faith. A bad faith edit, or a bad faith comment, is an edit or comment made deliberately to disrupt the project. The best example of genuine bad faith is vandalism. While bad faith is not strictly limited to vandalism, the key component of bad faith is the deliberate attempt to be unconstructive. There was nothing "unconstructive" about the change you reverted, let alone "deliberate." Rather than persist with false accusations as your signature way of communicating your dislike of other editors contributions, how about a cup nice cup of tea instead? 174.29.191.40 (talk) 15:48, 28 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
