An RfC that you may be interested in...

As one of the previous contributors to {{Infobox film}} or as one of the commenters on it's talk page, I would like to inform you that there has been a RfC started on the talk page as to implementation of previously deprecated parameters. Your comments and thoughts on the matter would be welcomed. Happy editing!

the book will explain. http://archive.org/stream/mythsofthehindus00niveuoft#page/79/mode/thumb

I located the part "Buddha's Final Release" in the book you are linking to and read the chapter, in order to see if the image can be useful further down in the article. However, its connection to the topic, i.e. Ātman (Hinduism) remains weak and has to be deduced. The term "Atman" is not mentioned in the myth at all, and the term Nirvana (Buddhism) which is mentioned in the myth instead, is only used once in subsection Ātman (Hinduism)#Atman – the difference between Hinduism and Buddhism. My opinion remains that this image is not helpful for the article. Hoverfish Talk 16:25, 26 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

FAC

Hoverfish, it has been quite awhile since we spoke for the last time. I hope you're doing well. I recently nominated Juan Manuel de Rosas for FAC, but the article is often ignored because of its obscure topic. If you have time and interest, could you review it? I'd be truly grateful. The link to the Featured Article Candidacy page is here. Regards, --Lecen (talk) 13:26, 30 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Lecen, I am marginally active in Wikipedia the last couple of years because of very limited time. Also, even in my more active days I didn't review GA's. But I see that the article is still tagged as Start-Class! I will raise it to C (I see a checklist by WikiProject Military history before I could raise it to B uncontroversially) and you should contact someone in WP:WPBIO to review it for GA before attempting an FA review.

2016 storm in Uruguay

Hi Hoverfish. Hope you are doing fine. I have just created an article about the tornado that devastated Dolores: 2016 storm in Uruguay. If you consider it convenient, please, publish about this fact on the Portal:Uruguay. Regards, --Fadesga (talk) 19:07, 16 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I am fine, thank you. What a terrible disaster! I added the text you wrote to the News section and also added the article the Help Expand section. Hoverfish Talk 11:55, 17 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Sobre las fechas de dos fotos de la fachada del Hospital Maciel

Hola usuario Hoverfish:

Ante todo, disculpa que no te escriba en inglés, pues mi conocimiento de ese idioma es muy rudimentario.

Me voy a referir a dos fotos que tú subiste como propias, referidas a la fachada principal del Hospital Maciel.

Si observas con detalle esas fotos, verás que con notoriedad no pueden haber sido tomadas en la misma fecha, pues a la que puse número (1) parece ser varios años anterior a la que puse número (2).

Yo vivo en Montevideo, pero esta duda la tengo desde hace muy pocos minutos, y claro, no he tenido tiempo de ir al sitio para una verificación.

Dado que tú figuras en ambas fotos como el autor, te pido que aclares este asunto, si es que lo recuerdas.

Posiblemente una de estas fotos tú efectivamente la sacaste el 2 de diciembre de 2010, mientras que la otra posiblemente la sacaste de un sitio histórico, tal vez por estar en el dominio público o por tener la autorización. Esto es una suposición, pero bueno, una explicación debe de haber, y probablemente tú la sepas.

Gracias por aclarar este asunto, cosa que puedes hacer directamente en Commons, o en la forma que tú prefieras.

Perdón

Perdona, pero ahora observo que si bien las fachadas son muy parecidas, las calles parecen ser distintas, así que pienso que el equivocado soy yo, pues posiblemente todo esté normal.

--AnselmiJuan (discusión-comentarios) 23:58, 15 December 2016 (UTC)

Hola AnselmiJuan, ambas fotos las tomé a la misma hora. La diferencia en luminocidad del sol se debe a que se tratan de diferentes lados del hospital Maciel que estan ubicadas en calles perpendiculares. Saludos Hoverfish Talk 10:10, 16 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hello 'Fish

Hi there, and thanks for the note! May you enjoy many more years on the WP. Cheers, Her Pegship (talk) 17:35, 24 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks very much

Always happy to help out, especially with a project whose members are always so enjoyable to work with. :-)

Keep up the good work, and happy editing! (Film editing, perhaps? Ahahahahahahahahahahaha...no. Sorry.) --Ser Amantio di Nicolao^{Che dicono a Signa?}_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 17:50, 16 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Question on file format

Hello Hoverfish, first of all I really like the recent work you are doing at the Film Festival articles. I am unable to do much these days due to my exams and office work. You are really making some excellent contributions.

Yes you can re-upload posters of png format, I don't mind at all. That goes for future posters also. Have a good day.--Jockzain (talk) 16:35, 24 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

July 2017

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Scream (1996 film). Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 00:32, 6 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for warning me, I am very aware of the situation. This is the edit history of the page: [1] where it can be seen who is edit warring and who not. Hoverfish Talk 01:10, 6 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Film categories

Hi, I got you email. I think the main problem with the film categories is that there is no coherent and unified strategy which has led to these unilateral changes. In truth I don't even know what the Film project thinks its categories should do i.e. should they facilitate searches? are they there to simply summarise certain characteristics? I think this would be better discussed at the Film project and all the key members should state exactly what they think the primary function of the categories should be, and then perhaps we can put together a project-wide approach.

Welcome back!

Hey, long time no see! It's great to have you back helping again with WP:FILMS. I haven't done too much editing here recently for articles nor kept up too much on ongoing discussions at the project. My focus recently has shifted to Commons where I've been doing categorization of San Diego-related images. I'll probably continue with that for awhile since I just discovered a large upload of a couple thousand images that all should be sorted. My work has become more demanding and am now taking classes for my MBA, so unfortunately have a lot less time on here. Keep up the good work, you are definitely an asset to the films project! --Happy editing! Nehrams2020 (talk • contrib) 13:44, 14 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
