The Barnstar of Good Humor | |
Jackrm is awarding Faithlessthewonderboy a Barnstar of Good Humor for: keeping good humour in me forgetting what month it was when warning someone! Any user could have warned me myself for that, but Faithless kept a good heart and just laughed with me at it. Thanks! → jacĸrм ( talk | sign ) 09:43, 1 September 2007 (UTC) |
College football eh? Only played that once. Thanks so much though! → jacĸrм ( talk | sign ) 11:09, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
- Haha, I've played it once or twice at school, but we got banned! I play rugby so it's pretty familiar to me. → jacĸrм ( talk | sign ) 11:15, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
Banned, yes. We were playing it during dinner and break, and people were getting injured etc. And the only differences I know of are you can't pass forwards in Rugby and you don't wear excessive ammounts of protection in rugby. Only a tooth guard normally. → jacĸrм ( talk | sign ) 11:25, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
- Yeah. I think the players go in for tackles in a different way, if you tackled like that in rugby, it'd kill you and the guy you're tackling! → jacĸrм ( talk | sign ) 11:38, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
Indeed, so do you like soccer? :p → jacĸrм ( talk | sign ) 11:49, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
- Wow, living in England? I would never move from USA to England. Which part of england do you want to live in? → jacĸrм ( talk | sign ) 12:02, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
Sounds like a good plan to me. I don't know exactly why people left England for the USA, I know why the Irish left for there etc., but I'm not entirely sure of the English. I just know the English wanted more land :p Canterbury is a nice place, very historical. I also have a link to Canterbury as I have some Huguenot blood in me. Some places in England are terrible. The chav had an outburst but they're slowly being overtaken by emos, which is better, as emos don't attack you! → jacĸrм ( talk | sign ) 12:16, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
- Well, I think the fact he found that people care about their heritage alot is because he went to Oxford. The people there are usually well off and well educated, so they will know alot more about their family. Alot of English people don't know about their heritage because they pretty much are just English. In the USA, caucasian people are a mix of many european heritages. I'm really proud of my heritage, but increasingly, it's becoming considered racist to be patriotic or proud of your heritage.
As for where I'm from and where to avoid: I'm from the edge of a city named Sheffield. It's ok, it has a mix of modern and historical stuff. I'm pretty much from inbetwen two counties, one which is Yorkshire, and the other is Derbyshire. Derbyshire pretty much just looks like this. It's a beautiful place. I haven't really been to many places which I could suggest avoiding. I've never been to London, as it would take me hours and London is so congested and costs to gain entry to! I took a picture of the view from my window, which i put over there -> I took this because it has amazing fog which i've never seen before. I also put another pic of a view when it's clear. Oh, if I could suggest one place, it'd be Castleton. Sorry for the essay! → jacĸrм ( talk | sign ) 12:42, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
- Your first assumption was right, I'm more of a United fan. I don't hate Wednesday though, as I've been to plenty of Wednesday matches too. If you look on the pics, you can see the Wednesday stadium. It's the big white building thing on the right. At night games, if you listen closely, you can hear the fans :p I'm not just a United supporter though, I've always loved Liverpool, mainly because of this.

Wow, the oppositions fans must be nearly as scared as France must be here. → jacĸrм ( talk | sign ) 13:37, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
- Haha, I'm pretty neutral on that, though i'm a fan of the Spurs fans. Received years of racism and they just accept it and laugh! It's great. → jacĸrм ( talk | sign ) 14:02, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
Death Eater Page
If you actually read the book carefully, it says that "Dolohov FALLS with a scream at Flitwicks hand" indicating that he was killed. Also Bellatrix is likely to have been killed because it said "Mollys CURSE soared beneath Bellatrixs outstreched arm and hit her squarely in her chest" Those two in the book are highly likely to be deceased so why did u change it?

Thank you for your participation in my recent RfA. Even though you didn't support my candidacy, I did greatly appreciate your comments, which I will certainly put to good use in improving myself as an editor. I do plan to make another request in a few months, once I have improved upon your concerns. Thank you again, and happy editing! Hersfold (t/a/c) 01:44, 5 September 2007 (UTC) |
Removed Harry Potter talk template because...
Since it was a redirected article, but was still showing up in the article count, I removed the template so it would disappear and we would get an accurate article count. Judgesurreal777 07:35, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
Snape's motivation
Sorry if I misunderstood you... It seems like even you are just talking about a line or two about Snape's parentage. As such, why not simply add such a line or footnote to the article at a place that you believe appropriate? But it still seems to me that talking about "merging" the two articles is much too overblown; we're really talking about deleting the article on the parents and perhaps adding one or two lines about them to Severus Snape. The latter can be done at any time by anyone, so go for it. Regards, Magidin 02:06, 8 September 2007 (UTC)
- Well, I added the information as a footnote to the page. Seems to flow better than to add it to the main body of text. Magidin 04:52, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
Durmstrang
- The Triwixard Tournament takes the biggest schools in EUROPE!!! (see Book 4)
- All the students wear Russian style clothing.
- Before making the films JK wanted the actors to come from the same country as the characters. The Durmstrangs students are all played by people of Russian decent. (Apart from Krum)
- I quote from the article. "Uniform and curriculum"
- Viktor Krum in uniform as depicted in the Goblet of Fire movie.In the Goblet of Fire book, Durmstrang students wear heavy furs with blood-red robes. In the film adaptation, Durmstrang dress includes RUSSIAN ushankas and tsigeika coats."
- They wouldn't be wearing Russian coats if they weren't from Russia.
- As for your comment Beaubatons is obviously in France. Durmstrang is obviously in Russia.
- I have the same proof as you do that Beauxbatons is in France. Now I agree Beaubatons is obviously in France, by the way they dress and talk. Why do you so blindly refuse to believe the same rules apply for Durmstrang?
- Why is Durmstrang not in Finland?
- Once again, before signing off the rights to make film versions of the first four films, JK added the condition that characters must be played by actors of the same country of decent. Warner bros originally wanted Hayley Joel Osmant as Harry but couldn't due this.
- The actors are all Russian apart from Karkarof and Krum. No people from Finland.
- I am sorry if you felt insulted by my comment however I do feel you are being slightly arrogant, just because their is no sentence that says DURMSTRANG IS IN RUSSIA, to me you seem to be disregarding all the other facts that point to this. Once again though I am sorry if I insulted you it was not intentional.
Well, let's look at this argument from a different angle. I have worn ushankas and Tsigeica coats. Does this make me Russian? If so, my grandpappy will likely disown me, thieving, ex-commie bastard I (apparently) now am. Clearly, the answer is: OF COURSE NOT! Clothes do not specify nationality any more than hairstyles do, And by the way, you are making an assumption by placing Beaubatons in France. Is France the only place in Europe where they speak French, or have French accents and French names? Think hard, now. Omg! Such a sitation exists in at least x other countries: Switzerland, Canada, Luxeumbourg, Monaco, Belgium....and Russia. (yes, Russian folk are taught to speak a language fluently; one of the reasons why their language schools are considered amongst the best in the world, and yes, I am leaving off Haiti, Tahiti, New Caledonia and Martinique, as it is reasonable to assume chicks from that neck of the woods would at least pic up a tan).
I think its best not to make any assumptions about the books. Don't fault the film's wardrobe folk for getting lazy. - Arcayne (cast a spell) 14:05, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
- I wasn't vandalising. I was just trying to get rid of his insult. --Demyx9 14:28, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
- Maybe you could cowboy up and work with the guy, giving him a little AGF. He didn't call you an cruft-adding ass-clown, which some editors might have called you, dismissing your edits with nary a word. He tried to work with you. Lighten up. - Arcayne (cast a spell) 14:33, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
- can anyone tell me what cowboy up means, what AGF means, what cruft means, waht nary means, i dont understand what he tried to say.
- Also the insult i removed was yours arcayne did you forget this or do you always talk in 3rd person?
- All this because JK forgot to add the location.--Demyx9 14:44, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
- Oops, I didn't realize I might be dealing with a non-native English speaker - my apologies. Allow to define:
- cowboy up - to be an adult, specifically a mature man, more specifically a tough, mature man that gets into bar brawls, wears leather chaps (in a non-sexual way), and rides off into the sunset after putting bullets into the bad guys. I use it here to refer to acting like a reasonable grown-up.
- AGF - a policy of Wikipedia, referring to assume good faith
- cruft - useless or pointless information that is most likley originating in the mind of the editor, who makes connections from what they observe and what they think they observe. Cruft has no place in Wikipedia
- nary - see the definition here
- Oops, I didn't realize I might be dealing with a non-native English speaker - my apologies. Allow to define:
- And the "insult" you removed was me being kind enough to cross-post a message about the rather pointless and unsupported argument you were having with Faithless. You can say 'thank you' at any point now for the favor.
- And yes, all this because JKR didn't want to include a location. She 's a wily minx, that one.... :) - Arcayne (cast a spell) 14:54, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
there's plenty of article left. I've just trimmed away all the garbage for you cool cats to jump up and pretty it up with facts and stuff. Maybe even add a shrubbery. Then, focus on cleaning up the Hogwart's entry - Arcayne (cast a spell) 14:38, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
- Precisely. I would prefer some tomato plants, myself. Them swallows can't steal 'em, African or European. :) - Arcayne (cast a spell) 15:19, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
Minor edits? Please don't mark major dits as minor. It comes across as deceptive, and irks some editors off to no end. - Arcayne (cast a spell) 14:41, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

- The "minor edit" button should be reserved for truly minor edits, like fixing a misspelled word or a punctuation error. As for the vocabulary, cowboy up, assume good faith, fancruft and nary ought to help. faithless (speak) 14:53, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

Barnstar
I think that maybe if he was a vandal, it was from not knowing how things work here in WP. Anyone can learn, He's better than a vandal because he's at least making an effort to learn. I was actually surprised at getting it. - Arcayne (cast a spell) 19:17, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
- Oh that. 300 was a case study in Lame arguments by a small but noisy group of pro-Persian editors who thought that being portrayed as the bad guys in a movie about a historical event wherein the Persians were the bad guys. Mostly, what I've learned is how not to feed trolls. - Arcayne (cast a spell) 20:25, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for adding a good reference to Mikhail Tal. Quale 15:01, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
- Tal-Botvinnik 1960 is listed as one of Tal's (all too few) books, but I don't think it's actually used in the article. We also need a World Chess Championship 1960 article to go in Category:Chess world championships. We are actually missing articles on all championships before 1948 and between 1948 and 1963, but a Tal fan would be especially interested in 1960. The matches are summarized nicely in Candidates Tournament. Quale 04:45, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
Potters on the Black family tree
Hey there,
I noticed you removed my mention of Charlus & Dorea Potter and their son from the Potter Family section of the Blood Purity article. I do understand your reasoning, and I know any mention of Charlus Potter is controversial, but there are many places where Harfang Longbottom, Caspar Crouch, and other familiar names are mentioned in relation to the Longbottom, Crouch, etc. families' articles, although it's equally unknown how or if they are related. If we're going to be consistent, Charlus and his son (being Potters) should be mentioned. What do you think?

I usually place PRODs on articles because removal of a PROD without improvement usually helps make a stronger case for deletion at AfD. It's an old trick I learned from others. Just note at the Chris Rush AfD that the PROD was removed without reliable source material being added. -- Jreferee (Talk) 15:29, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

Celtic F.C. season 2000-01
A belated thank you for the barnstar. It seemed a pity to lose an article to comments such as "I still don't see any notability here whatsoever and no potential.", " I don't see why this level of detail (one article per club and season) would be relevant for an encyclopedia." and "do we need an individual article about each season of each major professional sports team in history?" so I did some work on it. I had the advantage of knowing that it was a significant season for the team, mind you... All the best. --Malcolmxl5 22:48, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
Articles for deletion/Islam and Terrorism (etc.)
No problem. I really just left that comment to head off User:Rune X2's reply which I figured would have been worse. Also, I made a sarcastic comment earlier in the AFD which I had to smack my own knuckles for. Maybe there's a curse on that page or something. Cheers, CitiCat ♫ 17:10, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

I just thought I'd warn you that you are in danger of breaching 3RR on the page, so I'll revert the guy if he returns. BTW, however keeps adding that has done so under different IPs every time which means either a) He has an IP changing thingy that works especially fast and makes them completely different or b) It is a bunch of people from a forum or something that keep adding it. So, who knows? -- Scorpion0422 04:17, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
New Hampshire
Sylvia Larsen is only a stub, so you can keep her on your to-do list. But think of the many deserving others. There are NH Senators (to say nothing of the Reps) who are so deprived they don't even have a Wikipedia article. Their constituents are flailing wildly in cyberspace, seeking desperately to find their official, Project Vote Smart, and Follow the Money pages on their own. They often fail. It's hard, and it doesn't have to be this way. You can help. New Hampshire Senate Flatterworld 16:58, 23 September 2007 (UTC) :-)

Blood Purity
You are going to stop reverting back your own notions of blood purity in articles like "weasley family".
I have already explained why you are wrong, and why saying the Potter children are "pure blood" is original research. Show me were it was said that they were pure blood in the text, and then it will be accepted.
But for now, it's only your own speculations. It's all a matter of fictional characters point of views, and as you're not their author you cannot assume what they would say about it.
Rowling has told us that Blood purity was only a subjective ideology, that it was just like the Nazis considering a single jewish ancestor polluted all the family. Thus you can't assume what certain characters would think.
We already had this conversation and you completely failed to bring concrete elements to your claims. So stop trying to impose your opinions.
As I've said, I'm not saying one version is right and one is wrong, I'm saying you cannot impose your own views about it (because that's what it is: in absence of canonical elements from the text). As long as you don't provide enough proof of what you're saying (and you refuse the debate), you can't intervene in these matters. If you're willing to discuss, then do it instead of disrupting the articles.Folken de Fanel 00:19, 28 September 2007 (UTC)

Graham Crack'd
But if it was used in a game commercially sold, it becomes something that is verifiable. Remember, canonicity is not the criteria for inclusion to Wikipedia (it represents more of a fan-declarative officiality). If we are sure it was in a commercially released product licensed under the Harry Potter™, we cannot gainsay it. - Arcayne (cast a spell) 16:36, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
- Well, thanks for letting me know about deFanel. Sounds like one or two clowns I've had the misfortune to deal with. Nice to know that Mighty Odin is punishing more than just me for arrogance.
- You know my feelings on the Chocolate Frog/Wizard of the Month thingie. However, a game had to go through a certain level of vetting with canon tomake sure it was okay. I think an actual videoo game meets that criteria far better than a choco bosco card or whatnot. - Arcayne (cast a spell) 02:59, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
- Well, to get really picky about it, if his Mom was born of Muggles, that would make Potter half-blood, and his kids (since the Weaseleys are purebloods) 3/4 pure. I don't think that the books distinguished. And if I am wrong on Harry's mum, he is a full-blood. I'll go the article, and spread some of my trademarked "Joy". You may join in.

- Didn't know about the cn tags being after punctuation; I'll address that in future edits. I am removing the fact tag at the top of the page, as targeting individually uncited info allows folk to address/remove bad info after a period of time. Tagging an article doesn't really tell folk where the problems are; it's easier to dealwith one uncited fact than an entire uncited article. = Arcayne (cast a spell) 03:43, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
- I didn't tag it bc it wasn't true; I tagged it bc it was a claim that needs citation. Fans are going to know what we are talking about; but we are not writing with them as the target audience. Our intended audience needs to include those who think Harry Potter is a description of a particularly hirsute clay-worker. - Arcayne (cast a spell) 03:54, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

I apologize. I have already gave a summary about the edits I did in Minor Harry Potter characters. I moved some magical creatures to the article about Magical Creatures. I moved Nagini to the Horcrux article. Lord Opeth 22:15, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
John Lennon
Please address my recent comments on Talk:John_Lennon#Geffen_and_Ono. —Viriditas | Talk 21:43, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
- Correcting misleading information twice added into the article by Arcayne was called harassment and nonsense by that editor and was reverted with a dishonest edit summary.[1] I would say that this kind of comment and bad faith editing behavior is the very definition of incivility. —Viriditas | Talk 21:49, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
- Whatever. Since your block (and shortly before) you began following my blocks around (someone actually called it hero worship); you'vemanaged to show up either right before or after my edits. True, you might have had SPAM and Lennon on your list but you only recently edited after I did. Since I am not a problem editor, I would suggest that your dedense of "checking" my edits sounds a lot more like the harassment you've grown fond of accusing me of. I don't really need your slanted advice, and I don't really value it. Maybe you will clue in and realize I am simply not going to follow it.
- Faith, sorry for posting here. Viriditas and I have bumped heads on a number of articles, and I thought that making matters somewhat more clear (to you, as Viriditas is kinda young and just ignores advice and requests and whatnot) about the matters surrounding the issue. Now, back to our regularly scheduled editing (actually, it will be back to it after Viriditas replies - he cannot really help it). - Arcayne (cast a spell) 22:38, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
- Hey, no problem. I don't follow the Lennon page too closely, but saw from my watchlist what seemed like a pretty inappropriate comment, so I just tried to cool things down. I'm no expert on Lennon's personal life, so I can't really contribute to the argument, I can just try my best to keep tempers down; incivility (regardless of who is right) doesn't solve anything. faithless (speak) 22:49, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
- I'm sorry but that's completely false. You recently showed up on WP:LEAD to participate in a discussion about citations that I had been engaged in for some time. You also stalked me to San Francisco burrito at 04:51, 24 September 2007 and Spam (food) on 05:02, 24 September 2007. —Viriditas | Talk 22:47, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
- Yeah, as you can see, Viri has that selective memory thing. He didn't say that he's followed my edits in at least a half-dozen articles, and sicne i am on changes patrol, his edits are going to come up every so often - or more frequesntly, someone upset with his edits. SPAM has been on my list for a while, and Viri seems to gorget that in each case, I didn't call his edits (or his uncivil personal attacks) vandalism. I fixed his edits, or encouraged him to fix them. In each case he did...and then followed my edits to another user's page. Anyway, I thought that part of the story - specifically Viri's side of the story - seems to inhabit the Candyland portion of reality. Either way, the guy is toxic, and I've found it best to eitehr avoid him or simply ignore him. - Arcayne (cast a spell) 04:46, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
- Putting aside your usual litany of strange personal attacks, I dispute every claim you've ever made about me, and I have dozens of diffs to prove it. It would be beyond funny to try to see you "prove" that I've followed your edits in "at least a half-dozen articles" when no such incident has ever occurred, but please try for my amusement. I'm quite interested to see what you will come up with! Since you claim to be a writer, I'm sure you can think of something. (Try brainstorming if nothing comes to mind. But please, make it engaging, there's nothing worse than reading boring fanfic.) Frankly, Arcayne, the complete opposite of what you claim is true, and I suspect you are making these wild, outrageous claims for attention-seeking purposes. For someone who claims to ignore me, the diffs show a different story: you've been stalking my edits for a long time, starting with your sudden appearance on ALF and Talk:ALF which you gleamed from my contribution list. Furthermore, you've never fixed a single edit I've ever made - in fact quite the opposite is true. I don't think you actually know what "recent change patrol" is, but nevertheless, I first became aware of you when I began editing Children of Men after I saw your disruptive edits in the recent changes log, where you attempted to change the ending of the film, insert OR, and basically make a fool of yourself; It's been downhill with you ever since. I rewrote that article, and you had the audacity to claim that you wrote it on your user page, which I find incredibly amusing to this day. Making disruptive edits is one thing, but taking credit for the work of others is quite another, but no matter. If you are looking for Candyland, Arcayne, look no further than your own user page. —Viriditas | Talk 10:36, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
