What you reverted on [[Mort Mills]] was not vandalism. I was just trying to move his birth and death date to the bottom where personal info goes, and add a small amount of some helpful content. I think with all his credits, it might be a mis-statement to say that he was "best known" for a bit part in a movie, no matter how popular that movie is. Also, you reversed a small italics correction on a title. [[Special:Contributions/71.130.241.56|71.130.241.56]] ([[User talk:71.130.241.56|talk]]) 19:28, 11 September 2010 (UTC) |

GOCE Invitation

There are currently 2,468 articles in the backlog. You can help us! Join the September 2010 drive today! |
The Guild of Copy-Editors – September 2010 Backlog Elimination Drive The Wikipedia Guild of Copy-Editors invite you to participate in the September 2010 Backlog Elimination Drive, a month-long effort to reduce the backlog of articles that require copy-editing. The drive will begin on 1 September at 00:00 (UTC) and will end on 30 September at 23:59 (UTC). The goals for this drive are to eliminate 2008 from the queue and to reduce the backlog to fewer than 5,000 articles. Sign-up has already begun at the September drive page, and will be open throughout the drive. If you have any questions or concerns, please leave a message on the drive's talk page. Before you begin copy-editing, please carefully read the instructions on the main drive page. Please make sure that you know how to copy-edit, and be familiar with the Wikipedia Manual of Style. Awards and barnstars Thank you; we look forward to meeting you on the drive! |
Pantops Academy
Hi Square,
I noticed that you tagged Pantops Academy, an article I just created, as having multiple issues. I understand that the article needs to be expanded, but in what way does it need to be wikified and cleaned up?

- Hi, sorry I put that in in error, then my ISP had internet problems for the rest of the weekend so I couldn't get back on to correct it!
- Have corrected it now :) --5 albert square (talk) 18:50, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
Hey, I've added a load of information to the article. Can you try and find some stuff on the production? It could be a GA with a bit of work, but it would be good to get it done now while there are plenty of sources available. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 18:42, 5 September 2010 (UTC)
- Hey HJ!
- Yeah I will look at that. I'm going to watch The Bill's farewell documentary tonight so I'm hoping to get more ideas from that. I know we can't use stuff in the documentary unless it's referenced or it will count as original work or whatever it is but it might give me ideas on what to Google. I notice the episode is on Youtube, what I'm planning to do one time is take plenty of screenshots so we have variants on what we can use in the article. If I can get a decent one of Inspector Smith and Sgt Callum Stone in the final scene I reckon that would be good to use as would a couple of Jasmine Harris.
- What a weekend I've had though, some trouble with Virgin and BT in my area yesterday apparently only affecting customers connecting to the internet via ASDL modem, they couldn't resolve it all day so because I couldn't get on Wikipedia I didn't know what to do with myself! --5 albert square (talk) 18:57, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
- Damn those internet companies! Bloody useless! We just need some stuff on how the episode was made and some more crap just to beef it up. You'd struggle on the images. You might be able to get away with one more if you can argue that it really enhances the reader's understanding. I included the one of the super giving his respect speech because that's quite a key moment in the episode. Speaking of the super, his article is just a redirect at the minute. I think he deserves a proper article... HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 23:05, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
- Sorry to leap into the middle of your discussion, but I just thought I'd mention that the farewell documentary is a totally legitimate source if there's useful information in it - just use {{cite video}} to reference it. If there's commentary from cast and crew, it's probably going to be one of your most useful sources for production/development :) Frickative 23:20, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
- Yeah, bloody internet lol. Was bloody thankful I got on ok tonight! I'm really struggling to find any info that can be backed up by refs on how the episode was made, it was made using hand held cameras and from what I can remember of The Bill's article, I may be able to nick the reference from there. Other than that it would all count as original research because there is literally 0 refs for it. The one I was going to include, is the one of Jasmine telling Mickey that she is going to give a statement, she looks almost defeated and quite beaten up. I'd always take a few anyway in case the one of Jack gets deleted for whatever reason.
- Speaking of Jack, yeah he could do with his own article and it could probably do with a lot of expansion as well. I mean he was in The Bill for 21 years, compare his article to that of Lauren Branning or even Abi Branning who have been in EastEnders for 4!!
- Oh and AWB still ain't working for me. No idea what's wrong with it. Someone did tell me to manually extract files to get it working but I wouldn't have a clue how to do that so I've had to fire my query off to User:Reedy before I give up fully :(
- Frickactive, can we also use YouTube then? Not sure if the documentary is on there but it might be worth a look. I know it's on ITV Player though --5 albert square (talk) 23:23, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
- You can't actually link to it on YouTube for copyright reasons (I think, anyway!), but if you fill out the ref like:
- Kim Duke (director), Martin Kemp (narrator) (31 August 2010). Farewell 'The Bill' (Television production). London: Talkback Thames. Retrieved 6 September 2010.
- ...then that should be adequate for use as a source. To aid verification, you could use that as a general reference, and cite particular quotes and their approximate time in the documentary to back up your information. Frickative 23:43, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
- Brilliant! Ta! Get working on that tomorrow :) --5 albert square (talk) 23:46, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
I declined your speedy, because he appears to be a big TV star in Pakistan. Bearian (talk) 00:21, 10 September 2010 (UTC)
Thanks
Thanks for the help with that article awhile ago, was having a hard time finding the non vandalized version. Bobby122 Contact Me (C) 01:36, 11 September 2010 (UTC)
- That's ok, if you're meaning the Justin Bieber song page then I've requested semi-protection of it as that did seem quite a lot of unhelpful edits within just a few minutes of each other --5 albert square (talk) 01:39, 11 September 2010 (UTC)
- Yeah, I was surprised at all of those edits. It's been protected now. Bobby122 Contact Me (C) 01:43, 11 September 2010 (UTC)
