Confused by your reversion edit summary...

I see you say you like that version (not sure if you mean the one from the IP or your own) and then say that the external link displaces everything... You can surely make an external link look kind of link an internal one (there is a slight difference in color for the trained eye) by wrapping it in ... tags. So, it would look like [http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/MysteriousMiddleInitial J] which gives you an end result of J. Anyways, happy editing! — {{U|Technical 13}} ^{(e • t • c)} 01:39, 6 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thank for the advice! I'll add that in! (Oh, and I meant the IP's.) --UserJ Dalek 03:57, 6 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Don't stuff beans up your nose/Counterpoint

Do you intend to do anything with Wikipedia:Don't stuff beans up your nose/Counterpoint? Perhaps link it from the main essay? —Tom Morris (talk) 12:15, 9 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, wait, silly me. It is linked from there. I just didn't see it. Ignore me, I'm just getting super-early-onset admin dementia. —Tom Morris (talk) 12:17, 9 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Declined speedy

Letting you know I have declined speedy deletion of Kids in the House; it is not exclusively promotional. I suggest you take it to AfD. Yngvadottir (talk) 19:00, 27 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for November 28

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Glenn Wrage, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page American. 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.

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Attention: Potions in Harry Potter will be placed for AfD on June 4, 2016

(You are receiving this notice due to your having made some edits to the article discussed or its talk page sometime during its history)

In November of 2007 Potions in Harry Potter was deleted as a the result of a deletion discussion due to its failure of WP:FICT, WP:PLOT, WP:WAF, and other issues. On June 4, 2015 the article was recreated from content then currently existing on the Magical objects in Harry Potter article. A discussion followed regarding the appropriateness of the recreation. An attempt was made to return this article to a redirect, which was undone a day later. Some months later, a notice was placed on the article's talk page indicating the article would be placed for deletion. A few days ago, the article was placed for proposed deletion. This too was undone.

Throughout the history of the article, which spans more than a decade, it has never had any references. It has always been written in in-universe style. No outside universe perspective has ever been provided. As of June 2016, it will have been tagged for both of these problems for a year. I have asked, begged, and pleaded with people to rewrite this article to no avail. As the article stands (and has always stood), it continues to fail WP:FICT, WP:PLOT, and WP:WAF. There have been suggestions to merge the content back to Magical objects in Harry Potter, but this completely fails to address the failures noted. Where the content exists, either in its own article or as part of another, matters not. The issue is the content itself.

Barring a massive rewrite of the entire article into something that is encyclopedic in its treatment of the subject, I will be placing it for deletion on June 4, 2016. This notice is being sent as a last ditch attempt to find one or more people willing to do something to fix the serious problems extant in this content. Thank you for your attention, --Hammersoft (talk) 17:19, 4 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I don't remember ever seriously contributing to the article. I think I reverted vandalism once. CamelCase (MyTalk | ConTribs) 00:27, 11 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

November 2016

Hello, I'm Velella. I noticed that you made a change to an article, LittleBigPlanet‎, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Velella ^{Velella Talk} 20:14, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Velella: I'm not sure I understand. I removed information. I suppose I should have been clearer in my edit summary: that sentence would be fine in the "Reception" section, but it doesn't need to be in the lead paragraph. It also needs a source, ironically. CamelCase (Talk | Contribs) 22:21, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Your edit added the following "Although commonly referred to as a puzzle-platform game, industry professional Joey DiGiovanni demands it be referred to as a game creation system. ". That is unsourced and not encyclopaedic. So how is that "removing content" ? Velella ^{Velella Talk} 22:26, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, you're right. I was confused, I thought you added the information and I removed it. Sorry about that, I will now proceed to

Self-trout myself. CamelCase (Talk | Contribs) 22:31, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

SLAP!

Whack!

You've been whacked with a wet trout.

Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know that you did something silly.

Serena Foxglove-Tollini (talk) 20:23, 8 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. I've always wanted to be slapped with a trout. What for, though? CamelCase (Talk | Contribs) 19:33, 9 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
