Protection of Defecation article

[edit]

Hi, I noticed you added a protection tag to Defecation. The tag itself doesn't protect articles - it only tells other users that protection is in place. Only admins can restrict editing, so if you think it's needed in future, make a request on Wikipedia:Requests for page protection. I've just done that for Defecation, btw (I'm not an admin either).

Happy editing! — FIRE!in a crowded theatre... 08:47, 9 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

RayStorm unlock code

[edit]

Hello, JasonHockeyGuy.

I noticed you edited the RayStorm article, adding:

... When the contest was over, Working Designs released a code to unlock Free Play mode which would remove the limitations on the levels being played under difficulty level 4.

As an owner of the US version that Working Designs made (specifically, the blue-ship version as shown on the website Game Rave), I wonder: do you know where the code was released and what it was? I tried one code, "Unlimited Credits", which is all over the web, but the game still ended ("TRAINING MODE COMPLETE: Proceed to Combat Mode!") when I played with the code and all levels below 4 (specifically, the lowest difficulty).

While the article is in dire need of sources in general, my request is mainly out of my own curiosity. (The code itself should probably be kept out of the article.)

Thanks. --an odd name 19:50, 20 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thats probably what I was referring to the unlimited credits mode, but WD kept it secret until the money contest was over. If you remove it, thats fine. JasonHockeyGuy (talk) 06:11, 21 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I kept it for now, minus the "remove the limitations..." part. I have a feeling that it will be removed entirely as the article gets improved and noticed, though.
Please reply on my talk page from now on; I will reply on yours as needed. Thank you. --an odd name 23:56, 21 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I know what you mean, some days I can't get an anti-vandal edit in edgewise...not sure if it's poor reflexes or internet speed...or maybe I'm just getting old.. :) Keep up the good work! Dreadstar 08:24, 25 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Showbiz Pizza Article

[edit]

{{helpme}} I was reading the article about Showbiz Pizza and I have a problem with it. The locations area make the article sound like a directory assistance listing in a phone book or a map. Im not sure as to the appropriateness of the tone in this article. What do you think? I want to improve it but Wikipedia is an Encyclopedia and not a map directory. JasonHockeyGuy (talk) 06:00, 12 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your suggestion. When you feel an article needs improvement, please feel free to make those changes. Wikipedia is a wiki, so anyone can edit almost any article by simply following the edit this page link at the top. The Wikipedia community encourages you to be bold in updating pages. Don't worry too much about making honest mistakes — they're likely to be found and corrected quickly. If you're not sure how editing works, check out how to edit a page, or use the sandbox to try out your editing skills. New contributors are always welcome. You don't even need to log in (although there are many reasons why you might want to). --slakrtalk / 06:19, 12 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sandbox

[edit]

{{helpme}} Is it possible to have a personal sandbox as opposed to the one that is made public to everyone. I have some great improvements in store for a few articles but it would help me to have a personal page that only I can access for personal testing of articles before I edit the actual article. Thanks in advance. JasonHockeyGuy (talk) 17:02, 15 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It is. Just create User:JasonHockeyGuy/sandbox GtstrickyTalk or C 17:05, 15 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

"Im not the brightest of people out there so if you see me make a mistake on things, please point me in the right direction on my talk page and well go from there."

You can start by improving your grammar, like on the CV:B article. Gs68 (talk) 20:50, 17 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your feedback. I will try to make an effort to correct such issues in the future. I have started by switching to FireFox 3 which has spelling correction in it. JasonHockeyGuy (talk) 16:17, 25 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

RealArcade

[edit]

I am an expert on RealArcade as I have spent many years participating on their user forums (Both the Games forum and the CS Forums) and seen lots of changes through the years. I even have good information to source so I will be working on it sometime over the weekend. JasonHockeyGuy (talk) 18:00, 3 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Excellent. Please keep it balanced. I've heard mostly bad things about RealArcade; but there must be a few good things too, so mention some.  :) May I suggest you save as you go along (e.g. if you work on the article for 1 hour, save every 10 minutes). Things I would love to find out about in your article:
  • I saw in reviews online that there used to be an old version, and now it's been being phased out. What's the difference between the old and new version?
  • An infobox. That can show things like: Does RealArcade work on Vista?
  • Are the games you buy really yours, or is it DRMed so that they can stop working (e.g. if RealNetworks discontinues the RealArcade service?)
  • What kinds of games are available?
  • What's the pricing structure?
  • About the games you can play for free: do you play them in a webpage, or do they get installed to your Start menu? Do you have to be online to play them?
  • Are all of RealArcade's games exclusive to RealArcade, or can you get them elsewhere?
  • How convenient is RealArcade compared with going to www.download.com, looking for games, and downloading them yourself?
  • I've heard allegations that RealArcade contains spyware. Is it true? Also, does RealArcade install search toolbars in your web browser or do other annoying stuff?
  • What is RealArcade's main competition? Do any other companies offer similar services?
A note: Everything I have written here is opinionated. Feel free to ignore it.  :)

Thank You For Your Opinion

Thank you for voting, I Seek To Help & Repair! (talk) 06:20, 18 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Would you be interested in joining this project? We need more editors who share a burden for rescuing promising editors who have gotten into serious trouble because of behavioral issues. IF (a fundamental condition!) they are interested in reforming and adapting to our standards of conduct, and are also willing to abide by our policies and guidelines, rather than constantly subverting them, we can offer to help them return to Wikipedia as constructive editors. Right now many if not most users who have been banned are still active here, but they are here as socks or anonymous IPs who may or may not be constructive. We should offer them a proper way to return. If you think this is a good idea, please join us. I Seek To Help & Repair! (talk) 06:21, 18 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please note that you did not complete the process to nominate AppleCare at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion. If you still want to nominate the article for deletion, please read the instructions at WP:AFDHOWTO and complete all three steps in order. Thanks for your attention to this. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 07:53, 20 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ive actually given this up, as the speedy was already declined and the article needs more sources. JasonHockeyGuy (talk) 09:23, 20 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

RE:Cameltry

[edit]

I was looking over the discussions at WT:VG and noticed your post on Cameltry. Did you ever get the help you asked for? (Guyinblack25 talk 15:36, 5 June 2009 (UTC))[reply]

A tag has been placed on TwelpForce requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for web content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Re: Request to undelete

[edit]

Hi Jason,

Sure thing -- I've restored it to User:JasonHockeyGuy/TwelpForce. Please work on showing notability so that it'll have a better chance of making it in article space.

What is allowed and what is not?

[edit]

{{helpme}} Are subscription pricing structures of companies appropriate in articles?

Unless they've been reported on by reliable and verifiable sources, and you can cite the material, I would discourage it. What did you have in mind? m.o.p 02:27, 14 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, no, they aren't allowed at all unless the price itself is notable...see WP:NOPRICES Ks0stm If you reply here, please leave me a {{Talkback}} message on my talk page. 02:30, 14 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Motherfucker

[edit]

You nominated the article Motherfucker for speedy deletion as nonsense. Two administrators ended up disagreeing. If there isn't enough to preserve into a stand-alone article, I'd recommend trying to merge what you can into Fuck. --Damian Yerrick (talk | stalk) 14:51, 4 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Mozart's vulgar works

[edit]

I don't know if you have checked those pages (Leck mir den Arsch fein recht schön sauber and Leck mich im Arsch), but there's nothing wrong with either of them. Your superfluous prods have been removed, as the reasoning is flawed. The pieces are quite notable, as evidenced by the numerous references listed. Labeling a work "vulgar" is not sufficient reasoning to delete its article. Labeling an article's content as "questionable" is also not sufficient reason to delete an article (see censorship WP:NOT for more info). Labeling an article's content as "trivial" is sufficient reason to delete an article iff it is indeed trivial, which it is not here.

Additionally, you ask, "How much more notable can it be?" The answer, of course, is very much more notable, but I believe the question you really meant was, "How much less notable can it be?" When providing reasoning for a proposed deletion, it is helpful to accurately provide reasons for the proposal.

Lastly, the two songs are entirely different pieces. They have different numbers in the Köchel catalogue, which you can determine from the articles themselves.

I hope this answers any questions you may have about the two articles. If you have anymore feel free to ask. --M1ss1ontomars2k4 17:32, 9 July 2010 (UTC)

Creating fancy user pages.

[edit]

{{Helpme}}

I was browsing around on Wikipedia this weekend and noticed that a lot of Wikipedians have fancy user pages. Of course I am jealous of how they look as they look like professionally done. Do you reccomend any fancy templates that are free domain use that I can use on my user page to make it more fancy then just that big old flag to describe a bit more about myself?

If you find a nice-looking example, just click 'edit' - copy it, and change the bits you want. It'd be nice to ask the user on their talk page - and you should put a link in the edit summary to say where you copied it from. But... all Wikipedia content is free to copy - and that includes user pages.
I'd personally recommend you avoid anything too complicated though - because, whilst they can look great on a particular browser and screen-size, they can be problematic on others.
And remember, it is not myspace.
There's lots of ideas in Wikipedia:User page design center.  Chzz  ►  23:25, 9 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Adminstrator please delete :)

[edit]
This help request has been answered. If you need more help, please place a new {{help me}} request on this page followed by your questions, or contact the responding user(s) directly on their user talk page.

I would like an administrator to delete User:JasonHockeyGuy/TwelpForce

I have nothing more constructive to contribute to this subject as I felt it would not be notable to include on the site.  Done

For future ref, if you want one of your own user pages deleted, you can put the {{db-userreq}} tag at the top and that will bring it to the attention of everyone who watches speedy deletion requests -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 09:55, 2 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Your request on my talk page re. Tracfone

[edit]

I suggest you post to the talk page, noting the untrue things and the links you mentioned (but only if they are 'reliable sources'). It's suggested that you use the standard format for citing sources, but the particular formatting is not mandatory. Respect for RS policy is. Sorry, working on other things these days. --Elvey (talk) 17:39, 5 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Keeping Up with the Kardashians

[edit]

I removed the NPOV tag from the article over a year ago because there was no discussion of its placement which is required. Since that is a lengthy amount of time and hundreds of edits have been made to the article in that time span, I am sure that the article probably does have some issues at this point in time (seeing as I no longer have it watchlisted and have not recently looked over the content, I can only speculate). As for your concerns that the series is not notable, is it highly unlikely that it would not be deleted via AfD as is it a fairly notable series that is regularly covered in various third party sources and still garners decent ratings. That is enough to satisfy most notability standards for television shows. If you are concerned with the content, I suggest working to rid it of fancruft or whatever other problems you think are present. As stated previously, I de-watchlisted the article because I got tired of dealing with complaints about the content (which, incidentally, I did not write). It is a (likely scripted) reality show about California socialites, so it stands to reason that the article is going to be chalked full of fluff. Pinkadelica 00:05, 17 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Redirects

[edit]

I noticed you seem to be having trouble creating a redirect. To create a redirect, the only thing on the top line of the page should be #REDIRECT [[<target article>]]. Your edit called the {{redirect}} template, which links to code to produce a message at the top of an article if a redirect that points there might cause confusion. You can read more about creating redirects at Help:Redirect. Thanks. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 15:53, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
