August 2013

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Vicki may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "[]"s and 1 "{}"s likely mistaking one for another. If you have, don't worry, just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

List of unpaired brackets remaining on the page:
  • Who''; Ford was displeased with the lack of her character's development.<ref name="mounting">{{cite video|people=[[Ray Barrett|Barrett, Ray]], [[Christopher Barry]], [{Raymond Cusick]], [[Maureen O'Brien]], [[William Russell (actor)|William Russell]], Ian McLachlan|time=|date=2009|

Thanks, BracketBot (talk) 23:25, 2 August 2013 (UTC)

FAN Request

Hello! Since you have been very helpful with The X-Files project, I was wondering if you could drop by Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/X-Cops (The X-Files)/archive1 and cast a vote/provide suggestions. Thanks!--Gen. Quon (Talk) 17:39, 1 August 2013 (UTC)

I might be a bit busy this week but I'll see - I've never done a FA review before so I'll probably just look over grammar and wording like I do for GA. Glimmer721 talk 22:18, 1 August 2013 (UTC)
That would be awesome. Hardly anyone is offering any sort of criticism, and I don't want it to die on the table.--Gen. Quon (Talk) 23:48, 1 August 2013 (UTC)
I actually haven't seen the episode yet, but on glance the plot seems a bit long. I've got a few other comments that I'll drop off when I have more time. By the way, there are some new photos from Comic Con up (including Darin and Glen Morgan!) that could be useful. Glimmer721 talk 02:03, 2 August 2013 (UTC)
Thanks for taking a look! The only issues I really run into at FAN are grammar-related. As for the pics, sweet babies! That's quite a find!--Gen. Quon (Talk) 16:55, 2 August 2013 (UTC)
I left my comments...I think they're my first FAC comments, actually. I'm really timid about nominating "The Eleventh Hour" for FA. Anyway, I expect a minor surge of new things in light of Comic-Con. Glimmer721 talk 19:28, 2 August 2013 (UTC)
I responded to your comments; thanks for leaving them! Has "The Eleventh Hour" had a copy-edit/peer-review? I feel that that's a pretty good thing to get done before you submit at FAN, otherwise, the reviewers will stomp all over your prose. :P But yeah, if you feel confident, submit away! I'd be willing to drop a few comments if you do submit it.--Gen. Quon (Talk) 23:21, 2 August 2013 (UTC)
Responded again, just one thing I want to check before I support. "The Eleventh Hour" did get a peer review a while ago with only a few comments, one of which I haven't addressed because it requires more citation information for one of the sources, apparently an obscure Australian magazine. I sort of would rather focus my time right now on getting lesser articles up to GA. I've never requested a copyedit before though. Glimmer721 talk 23:33, 2 August 2013 (UTC)
I just closed the A class review myself, since none of the delegates are responding. As for "The Eleventh Hour", you could put up a request on the Guild of Copy-Editors page, or just try dropping a line on one of these guys talk pages.--Gen. Quon (Talk) 05:02, 3 August 2013 (UTC)
I've supported "X-Cops" and dropped "The Eleventh Hour" at the GOCE. It'll take them a while to get to it, but I'm in no rush! Glimmer721 talk 15:46, 3 August 2013 (UTC)

The next Doctor

Hi Glimmer. I hope that you are well and having a good summer. We have several guesses about tomorrows announcement on my talk page. Feel free to chime in if you wish. Have fun tomorrow whatever happens. Cheers. MarnetteD | Talk 22:47, 3 August 2013 (UTC)

I watched it! And I don't know who he is, but I think he'll bring something interesting to it :). This is my first regeneration! Glimmer721 talk 19:08, 4 August 2013 (UTC)
Peter has truned in some excellent performancees over the years. His first film Local Hero is one of my all time faves. he was also amazing in Prime Suspect 3 opposite Helen Mirren. The Malcolm he was referring to is a foul mouthed government operative in The Thick of It. that series has been remade in the US as Veep on HBO. IMO he is such a good actor that he will help me get over missing Matt. Enjoy the months ahead as you get experience what makes the show so special. Cheers. MarnetteD | Talk 19:20, 4 August 2013 (UTC)
Oh yes I've already heard jokes about him taking on the role from his character in The Thick of It, aka cursing out a Dalek. Glimmer721 talk 19:24, 4 August 2013 (UTC)

RE: VHS Sources

I've had a dig around and managed to track it down on Amazon.co.uk at [1]. It gives the publishing date of 5 September 1994. This also matches the date given in [2] and at [3]. Also I find is suspect that there was an article on the episode in Doctor Who Bulletin no. 130 dated September 1994 - I think this would match with the VHS release. (That is referenced to [4] - just do a search for 1994 and you'll see the reference). Miyagawa (talk) 17:09, 5 August 2013 (UTC)

The TARDIS Library says September 1994 for the UK VHS. --Redrose64 (talk) 22:18, 5 August 2013 (UTC)

A cupcake for you!

For your appreciation of Doctor Who, Lord of the Rings, and Star Trek! This user is one I can definitely relate to! Fezzes are cool! Castigonia (talk) 19:41, 7 August 2013 (UTC)
