Your edits to color blindness

Advice: English dialects on Wikipedia: Wikipedia has millions of readers; some use American English, or British English, or International English, or any of numerous other local forms from Australia, Canada, Ireland etc. Because of this, Wikipedia has a policy of respecting articles written in whatever form of English the original author of the article used.

The guidelines are simple. For subjects exclusively related to Britain (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. If it is an international topic, use the same form of English the original author used.

In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to the other, even if you don't normally use the version the article is written in. Respect other people's versions of English. They in turn should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Wikipedia:Manual of Style. If you have any queries about all this, just ask anyone on Wikipedia and they will help you. Enjoy your time on the internet's fastest growing encyclopædia/encyclopedia . Thank you.

The Darkest Hour (Warriors)

Hello. The Darkest Hour (Warriors), an article you recently created, does not properly cite its sources, according to WP:CITE. Please include a full citation for every source used. Thank you. Yours truly, Boricuaeddie^{Talk • Contribs • Spread the love!} 20:59, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

Hello. This is a reply to your reply of the comment above on my talk page. According to Wikipedia policy, every article should have a reliable primary source. If you have any questions, leave a message on my talk page, or take a look at Wikipedia:Verifiability. Yours truly, Boricuaeddie^{Talk • Contribs • Spread the love!} 21:36, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

Hello. This is a reply to your comments on my talk page. The article is not properly sourced because you should include a full citation for all of the works you used as references for writing the book's analysis. If you did the analysis yourself, then you should re-write the article, because Wikipedia:No original research states that you should not include original research on Wikipedia. Yours truly, Boricuaeddie^{Talk • Contribs • Spread the love!} 22:59, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

Hello. This is a reply to your reply on my talk page. I'm afraid I don't understand. Did you copy the plot summaries from articles in Wikipedia? Or did you copy the plot summaries from the books? Boricuaeddie^{Talk • Contribs • Spread the love!} 01:01, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

Hello. This is a reply to your reply on my talk page. Thank you for explaining the situation to me. I understand you moved the information from the original page to separate, relevant pages. If this is indeed the case, then you must ask the editor who originally wrote the plot summaries where he/she got the information and include them on your articles. I hope this finally solves the problem. Yours truly, Boricuaeddie^{Talk • Contribs • Spread the love!} 20:29, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

Why?

Reply: Because all the discussions were on that talk page to begin with and its easier to keep track of all discussions when they stay where they started. «razorclaw» 18:35, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

Now please redo all that you undid. If you don't want to waste your time doing so, I will go ahead and do it. ;-) «razorclaw» 18:44, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

No problem. Ignore the previous comment I just did it. Regards, «razorclaw» 19:02, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

Please stop

Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia. However, articles should not be moved, as you did to The Sight (Warriors), without good reason. They need to have a name that is both accurate and intuitive. We have some guidelines in place to help with this. Generally, a page should only be moved to a new title if the current name doesn't follow these guidelines. Also, if a page move is being discussed, consensus needs to be reached before anybody moves the page. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Just to let you know, there are other articles named "The Sight" «razorclaw» 21:13, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

Thank you

Thanks for joining the Warriors Wikiproject. :) Elfin341 06:25, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

Please do not add unhelpful and unconstructive content to Wikipedia, as you did to Corrie. Your edits appear to be vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. The way, the truth, and the light 19:28, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

Corrie

This is an encyclopaedia. Encyclopaedia articles on mainstream subjects such as the glacial feature known as a corrie take precedence over informal nicknames for a soap opera, used primarily in a single country. Guy (Help!) 12:41, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

There already is a disambiguation page at Corrie (disambiguation). If you wanted to disambiguate, you would redirect Corrie there. You can also vote at my RM (see Talk:Corrie (disambiguation)) to do just that. The way, the truth, and the light 16:02, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

Sources

Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia. However, adding content without citing a reliable source, as you did to Into the Wild (Warriors), is not consistent with our policy of verifiability. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Metros 23:16, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Civility

With regards to your comments on Talk:Warriors (book series): Please see Wikipedia's no personal attacks policy. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Note that continued personal attacks will lead to blocks for disruption. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. Metros 16:43, 8 June 2007 (UTC)

Late Sorry

Sorry for acting like a loser occasionally towards you. I'm hotheaded, so sorry. ~Crowstar~ 18:33, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

Sockpuppetry case

You have been accused of sockpuppetry. Please refer to Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/David Cat for evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with notes for the suspect before editing the evidence page. Cheers, JetLover 03:53, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

Blocked for sockpuppetry

It has been established that you engaged in sockpuppetry by evidence presented here: Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/Kevin Cat, and you are therefore blocked for period of 72 hours. You're welcome to make useful contributions after the block expires.

I AM NOT A SOCKPUPPETER ^DAVID _CAT 18:06, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

Unblocking

After reading Metros' comments on my talk page, and reviewing your email, I think it's reasonable to conclude that there's not enough evidence to keep you blocked for sockpuppetry. It may be that the other "Cat" accounts (Freddy Cat etc) were created by someone impersonating you. I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and unblock you. MastCell ^Talk 23:41, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

Hi David - you should now be able to edit - I've lifted the autoblock as well. If you're still unable to do so, see WP:AUTOBLOCK and Template:Autoblock for instructions on how to get it fixed. I'm sorry about the inconvenience. MastCell ^Talk 02:26, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

Nice name, Mr. Cat. I like cats, too. It's good that Mr. Cell released the cat out of the bag! Botrag 18:07, 14 July 2007 (UTC)

I Saw Your Comment On SuggestBot's Talk Page

"Wikify" is simply when you add links to other articles here. :) When you see an article that says that it needs to be wikified, that means that it could be improved by adding wikilinks to other relevant articles. If you'd like to know more, the "orphan" tag means that there are few-to-no articles that link to it. Hope that helps! :) -WarthogDemon 21:26, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

Jack Thompson

I thought I better reply here, rather than clog up that talk page. My personal opinion is rather biased, as I am a gamer (especially a fan of GTA), and work in the games industry, so as you can imagine I'm not exactly his biggest fan. I hope that he is doing it out of some (in my opinion misguided) attempt at saving peoples lives, in which case I think he is probably trying to do the right thing, even though I don't agree with it. If on the other hand it is has just become a vendetta against Take Two, then well...

On another note, I notice you are a PS3 owner, there's not a lot of us around yet, I only hope that with the recent new games, and some of the cool stuff coming in the future it will take off. John Hayes^talk 18:47, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Dah-bwu.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Dah-bwu.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 04:37, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

"Fake American Spelling"

Now, I couldn't help but notice this statement in a recent edit of yours. What, pray tell, did you mean by this statement because the only way I can take it as a harsh, unnecessary comment directed at a certain group of people when all you really had to say is that the article is predominately in British English rather than American English. I'll kindly ask you to remain civil and please refrain from such statements in the future. Thanks. ♣ Klptyzm ^{Chat wit' me § Contributions} ♣ 23:55, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

Couldn't help but notice you have a heavy history of removing warnings, especially about your edit summaries. You'll find that I'm quite the persistent bastard, so simply removing and reverting warnings won't work with me. Just kindly take heed of it and move on. Thank you. ♣ Klptyzm ^{Chat wit' me § Contributions} ♣ 02:20, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

WikiProject Warriors Role Call

Hi. You have listed youself as an active contributor of WikiProject Warriors, but as we are trying to see who is still active, we have put all names under "Possibly Inactive." If you are still active, go to Wikipedia:WikiProject Warriors and move your name to "Active." Move your name to "Inactive" if you no longer wish to contribute. You may always move it back. See the talk page after moving your name to "Active" to see some ideas on what to do. Thank you!

The Sight (Warriors)

I wanted to ask you about this edit. I disagree with you about removing the tag. I think that the only section of that article that isn't a summary is the 'Other' section, which talks about the plot of the story anyway. I don't really understand how only 1/3 of the article describes the plot. ~ Bella Swan 01:45, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

Well, I do think that that template is the best at saying that there is only a plot summary in the article. If it's alright with you I'll change it back. ~ Bella Swan 23:02, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

No prob. ~ Bella Swan 03:23, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

AfD nomination of Fire and Ice (Warriors)

I have nominated Fire and Ice (Warriors), an article you created, for deletion. I do not feel that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Fire and Ice (Warriors). Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Big willy.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Big willy.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 20:20, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
