A signature tip

[edit]

Hey there again. When you sign your name at the end of a post, it's best to use four tildes instead of three; that way other people can see the date and time at which you made your comment. Cheers, Dabomb87 (talk) 15:49, 17 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Halo Reach edits

[edit]

The edits to the article were reverted due to not complying with Wikipedia's Manual of Style, which requires a very specific way of writing. --Teancum (talk) 17:30, 1 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't post any thing on the Halo Reach talk page though? I only edited the article. CJISBEAST (talk) 17:35, 1 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

September 2010

[edit]

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Halo: Reach. Your edit has been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you.

The plot you added was not only overlong and overly detailed, it was also apparently copied and pasted straight from another source. That is not allowed in Wikipedia articles. Please also read this guideline which tells in some detail what content is inappropriate in video game articles; the plot section should be concise, and not too detailed. bonadea contributions talk 16:05, 16 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

In response to your message on my talk page, where you said "Can we keep the long plot and paraphrase it?": first, the regulations about copyrighted text (which is everything that's taken straight from other sources unless it says it's not copyrighted) are pretty strict here, and paraphrasing is not enough - you'd have to rewrite it completely using your own words. Second, as it says in the link you got in the notice just above, plot summaries mustn't be too long or detailed. Wikipedia articles should not be written for the people who already know the subject - and people who doesn't know the game would be confused or put off if the plot description is too long and detailed. There is a Halo Wiki (that's where the plot summary was copied from) and that's a great place to put all the details that don't interest people who are not actually fans of the game, but just want to find out about it.

But I'm not really the person to discuss this with - I removed your edit because it was a copy of another website's text, but when it comes to what plot details should be included or not, it's much better that you talk it over with the people on the article's talk page. Thanks, and happy editing! --bonadea contributions talk 19:53, 16 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Tagcruft

[edit]

Hi. I removed your addition of expand and expert tags on Gliese 581 g. First, the expand tag is not needed at this time, as we are working with a limited set of data, and there isn't much to add beyond what we have. In the coming days, as more material is published, we will work with it. The expand tag is usually only helpful when we are dealing with a topic that has a lot of information, but little content. That's not the case here. Second, I removed the expert tag, as we appear to have things under control based on discussion with various editors. In general, loading up high-traffic articles with lots of tags isn't helpful, but can help bring attention to less-trafficked articles, depending on who is doing the maintenance. If you have any questions, let me know. Viriditas (talk) 02:08, 1 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Spaceflight portals

[edit]

Hello! As an member editor of one or more of the Spaceflight, Human spaceflight, Unmanned spaceflight, Timeline of spaceflight or Space colonisation WikiProjects, I'd like to draw to your attention a proposal I have made with regards to the future of the spaceflight-related portals, which can be found at Portal talk:Spaceflight#Portal merge. I'd very much appreciate any suggestions or feedback you'd be able to offer! Many thanks,

WikiProject Space Colonization activity

[edit]

Hello there! As part of an experiment to determine how many active editors are present in the spaceflight-related WikiProjects, some changes have been made to the list of members of WikiProject Space Colonization. If you still consider yourself to be an active editor in this project, we would be grateful if you would please edit the list so that your name is not struck out - thus a clearer idea of the critical mass of editors can be determined. Many thanks in advance.

WikiProject Spaceflight reboot

[edit]

Hello there! As you may or may not be aware, a recent discussion on the future of the Space-related WikiProjects has concluded, leading to the abolition of WP:SPACE and leading to a major reorganisation of WP:SPACEFLIGHT. It would be much appreciated if you would like to participate in the various ongoing discussions at the reorganisation page and the WikiProject Spaceflight talk page. If you are a member of one of WP:SPACEFLIGHT's child projects but not WP:SPACEFLIGHT itself, it would also be very useful if you could please add your name to the member list here. Many thanks!

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.
