Concern about Xiaolin Showdown

The thing with the Xiaolin Showdown list of episodes is not working. You can have the pictues but we need to have it in the same format as before with the shen gong wu and listing the xiaolin showdowns Herb-Sewell13:36, 30 June 2006

May be so, but suppose we don't have enough pictues, and now we'll have to write a shortened synopsis for every episode. Herb-Sewell13:55, 30 June 2006

Dude, all I'm saying is that the new format is really hard to people who are trying to improve the articles of the episodesHerb-Sewell 00:32, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

Color scheme?

I can see that you changed the value for "color scheme" but I cannot see any difference at List of Xiaolin Showdown episodes. Should it look different somehow? Ryulong 00:25, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

I guess my problem is that I'm using Internet Explorer, then. Is there any way to alter the code so it's useful for IE users? Ryulong 00:29, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

Fair use images in lists

Hello, I see you have contributed your thoughts to Wikipedia talk:Fair use/Fair use images in lists. It's been dead for a while, but I have archived it and taken a new fresh start. I hope this time we will be able to achieve something as I have summarized the main points of both sides (feel free to improve them) and I call you to express your support or oppose on the concrete proposal that I have formulated. Thanks, Renata 02:28, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

Super Mario 64

I'm glad you're trying to improve the article. As much as I would love to make over the article of one of the greatest games ever made, I've got my hands full with another one. :) But I'd still like to help you out, so here is the section "THE MAKING OF MARIO" from Steven L. Kent's book, The Ultimate History of Video Games: From Pong to Pokemon--The Story Behind the Craze That Touched Our Lives and Changed the World (2001). Here is an Amazon link detailing the book so that you can cite it properly. I don't believe Amazon mentions the location of publication, but it is New York. Without further ado, here is the text, taken from pages 529 and 530:

Shigeru Miyamoto, creator of Donkey Kong, Mario, Zelda, Yoshi, and Star Fox, entered the video game industry with a unique philosophy that was always reflected in his games. "When you draw a laughing face, your face should laugh," he once explained in an interview. "When you draw an angry face, your face should be angry. The character will capture your emotion. The emotions and fun in a game are not made while thinking about business."

By the time Nintendo launched Nintendo 64 (N64), Miyamoto had been creating games for nearly twenty years. He had witnessed and aided the evolution of the business, software, and technology of video gaming. His first game, Donkey Kong, was created by a five-man team and contained approximately 20K of code. Now, as he made the flagship game for N64, his team had swollen to more than fifty members. Instead of 20K, he and his team would write 8 megabytes of code - more than 400 times more code than in Donkey Kong. Instead of designing levels that fit on a single screen, they created enormous 3D landscapes complete with trees, castles, and dinosaurs. Adapting to this new challenge, Miyamoto created a new philosophy. While most game designers were coming up with features, then building their games around them, Miyamoto worked on creating expressive landscapes, then created ways to use them.

"One thing that was different with Super Mario 64 was [that] we wanted to make some snow mountain, a really big one. That came first, and afterward we asked [each other] for the ideas about how to make use of this mountain.

It was as if we were building up an amusement park. We first found our location. We purchased the mountain, and afterward, we thought of some interesting things we wanted to implement on the mountain." - Shigeru Miyamoto

Super Mario 64, Miyamoto's lead game for N64, did a better job of bringing a two-dimensional side-scrolling game into the world of 3D than any game before it. To accomplish this, Miyamoto's team used all of the old characters and objects made popular in early Mario games, then incorporated new devices that could only occur in a 3D environment. The big end battles, for instance, pitted Mario against a much larger foe on a huge 3D platform. The only way for Mario to win was to circle around the enemy.

Building from Miyamoto's amusement park analogy, Super Mario 64 included huge slides and other kinds of activities that bought true variety to the game. Everybody at Nintendo recognized the game as a masterpiece; the only problem was that Miyamoto was taking too long to build it. According to Hiroshi Imanishi, Nintendo president Hiroshi Yamauchi's right-hand man, the release of N64 was delayed until Miyamoto was satisfied with Super Mario 64. The delay would have been even longer, but Yamauchi finally told Miyamoto that the game was good enough.

If you have access to academic databases such as LexisNexis, Academic Search Premier, or Proquest (search for old New York Times articles), I would highly recommend those. If not, I can always try to add in stuff later. Good luck! --Tristam 06:19, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

Consensus gathering at Wikipedia talk:Naming conventions (television)

Hello. Thank you for offering your opinion and "vote" to Wikipedia talk:Naming conventions (television)#Episode Article Naming conventions! We notice that there may have been confusing in collecting the opinions of yourselves and others. Thus, we would appreciate it if you took the time to voting again at the poll. Please choose "#Support" or "#Oppose" for the first option. Additionally, you may also make a completely separate vote for which disambiguation title with be used.

Civility

A sentence such as "Suggesting a poll is spitting in the face of everyone who has participated in the discussion and is the most disruptive and uncivil behavior that one can engage in at this point." is not particularly helpful. [1]Could I suggest that mundane editorial disagreements are most likely to resolve quickly and productively when editors observe the following:

• Remain polite per WP:Civility.
• Solicit feedback and ask questions.
• Keep the discussion focused. Concentrate on a small set of related matters and resolve them to the satisfaction of all parties.
• Focus on the subject rather than on the personalities of the editors.

Paulins Kill Featured Article Candidacy

I thank you for your comments and suggestions on how to improve the Paulins Kill article in order to make it worthy of being named a Featured Article.

So far, I think all the issues have been addressed with the sole exception of the listy Flora and fauna section. Now there are two ideas on how to tackle that, and there are possibly others. If you could weigh in on what the preferrable method to tackle this in the next day or two, I'll be able to fix it before Christmas. Also, in addition, if you could take a second look at the article and its candidacy and examine whether the edits made in response to the FAC page comments address your concerns adequeately, I'd be much obliged. — ExplorerCDT 01:59, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

Episode List vandal

Hey Jay, I hate to be the whistle blower, but that anonymous user who keeps ading season four has done it again. I checked out his talk page and found that he's already received his last warning. I think it's unfortunately time to block him. Seabiscuit_1982 16:34, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

List of My Family episodes

Following your comments I have enlarged the text, I'm sure you will agree that this is now big enough, although it can be made bigger if needed. Otherwise I don't see what is wrong with this table now; if you feel that who wrote each episodes is necessary (I don't think it personally), this could be added to the existing table. You say a reformatting has been requested, by whom and can I see their reasons for this? On another point, when you originally changed the series one table, you also changed the capitalisation of the episodes titles. The capitalisation before was the correct capitalisation according to the episodes themselves and it would be appreciated if in future you could check this before changing it? Thank you. --Berks105 11:05, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

Firstly, while you have showed me when the request was made I see no reason given. It worries me that the Wikiproject is trying to install an episode guide format without first having got support from outside the Wikiproject group. Secondly, you say the show takes artistic licence with the titles. That is immaterial, the fact is the episode titles that appear on the show itself are the official ones, grammatically right or not. Quoting from TV.com is like quoting from IMDb, neither are reliable, the actual episodes are reliable as this were we get the titles from in the first place, we can't change them just because they aren't grammatically correct. The summaries I enlarged to 100%, not 90% as you say, and if you want them larger still I can do that. --Berks105 10:39, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

Firstly, with regards to the text size. As I have said I think its big enough, and I cannot work out to enlarge it so only the summaries are the same size as the titles. I still argue with the "correct capitalisation"; you are being very arrogant here. The fact is we get the episode titles from the episodes, therefore by the same token we have to use the capitalisation they use. If we don't we might as well just change the episode titles if we don't like them! I remain unhappy with the 'standard format' as I believe it does not suit all episode lists. --Berks105 10:53, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

Category:Candidates for speedy deletion

I've reverted your removal of the nogallery tag at CAT:CSD. There are way too many images up for deletion right now. This causes severe lag time if someone tries to load the page and has to wait for all those images to load. You said that "admins need to know what they're deleting". Well they do...they click the image's link which takes them to the image's page where they view it and delete it. It's the same as if they were going to an article. Metros232 19:03, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

The original adding of the tag did not include that explanation in the edit summary. I assumed some one had missed the fair use exemption decision for the page. Jay32183 19:10, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

The original edit summary wasn't descriptive because almost all us administrators who patrol CSDs know why it was added. Sometimes it's added with a comment saying "+nogallery tag, over 100 images" or something like that, but it's understood by most why it's added when it is, Metros232 19:15, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Naked News

First of all, stop menacing me. Second, everything was fine with the Naked News photos until, I created new articles this week with Naked News pictures. Third, I've created profile, only for Yukiko Kimura, Whitney Saint-John, Erica Stevens & Alex Pantos. These profiles have been tagged; as far as I'm concerned, the other pictures of the Naked News profile don't have neither sources information. So, I don't understand, why everything was fine until I create some profile and then, pictures are subjet to deletion. So please explain this sudden change.VincentG 23:02, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

In the information box under the picture of Christine Kerr it's written (without the brackets): [241×180 (9,752 bytes) (Naked News newscaster Christine Kerr. screenshot)] Is it what you want me to write with the files I uploaded? Because like I told you, the only files that are tagged are the ones I've uploaded. The other pictures of the other girl's profile are not tagged. So, I will comply...but if the other pictures don't comply tag them as well. But like I said, I'm eager to learn, but I demand justice and some good explanations. See you man.VincentG 01:31, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

I deleted the pictures that I have uploaded. It is not clear enough for me; so in that case, I think it's better to wait and find a solution to post the pictures.VincentG 02:15, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

No rationale templates

I realize you apparently disagree with it, but the general opinion on the wider forum (and wider forum discussions override template talk pages which draw only a small minority of editors) holds that screenshot templates do in fact give a minimal fair use rationale sufficient to protect them from speedy deletion under I6. This is especially true for the image under contention, since the Disney tag gives as much substantial defense as a detailed rationale would.

Of course, the lack of any image source makes the issue rather academic for this particular case, but I strongly advise you to not act against policy page consensus here. --tjstrf talk 05:45, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

I suggest you read the highly sensible discussion at Wikipedia talk:Criteria for speedy deletion/Archive 16#Can we clarify I6? where it was concluded that not only is there no consensus for what you are doing, but that norationale tagging images which have the correct template is pretty much just laziness since all the necessary information to write the rationale (except possibly the source) is present in the tag. It would take 30 seconds to put a rationale on those images you are presently mass-tagging, which means a loss of maybe 15 seconds for you but which would save the project as a whole in wasted labour because someone else has to go and add it since you won't. The tags that no rationale deletion properly applies to are grouped at present under Category:Wikipedia:Generic fair use tags. --tjstrf talk 19:32, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

The discussion I linked to says that the distinction of "Generic fair use tags" was made so that it also covered the near-variants such as fairusein2 and so on. And even if what you say was true, your tagging for deletion rather than fixing the problems is unproductive. If the image is an album cover, how many seconds does it take to type that the image is rationalized under fair use in articles where it is an illustration of the album it represents? Certainly less time than it took for you to tag it and then another person to add that same text. --tjstrf talk 19:45, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

{{Fair use disputed}}

Hi, I've noticed that you have recently added this tag to several images that qualify for fair use. Your reasoning, "the fair use rationale does not explain the specific usage of this image in any particular article", is a bit contradictory to common sense. For instance, Image:019.jpg is tagged with {{tv-screenshot}}, which states that the claim extends to "identification and critical commentary on the ... program and its contents". This statement provides a solid base for determining fair use status. If the article, Bart Gets Hit by a Car, includes critical commentary on the event depicted in the screencap, then the assertion that there's no rationale for specific usage is frivolous. There is no mandatory format for fair use rationales, only an expectation that they adequately address concerns outlined at WP:FUC. Tagging appropriately used copyrighted images with disputed tags is counterproductive, as it does not directly dispute the fair use claim, but rather outlines a dubious claim of the inadequacy of the rationale. If you think that the fair use rationale is incomplete or insufficient, then just fix it! Address your own concerns about the rationale, instead of passing the buck to someone else. No, there's no policy or guideline that requires you to do this, but then we are all here to contribute in a spirit of courtesy and collaboration. I don't mean to come off as a complete jerk, this little rant is simply the result of my experience in clearing out logs of replaceable fair use & no-rationale images. It sometimes seems as if users tag images they simply don't like and want to get rid off, instead of being willing to put in the time to fairly assess usage and copyright status. ˉˉ^anetode╦╩ 04:51, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

OK, thanks for completely missing the point. Just out of curiosity, could you point to a rationale of a TV-screenshot that you deem adequate? ˉˉ^anetode╦╩ 04:58, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

I am well aware of WP:FUC and I resent your accusation that my involvement is disruptive. Your comments so far have been dismissive and condescending, so I am not at all inclined to placate your concern. If you wish to delete this image, then post it on WP:IFD, and offer up your assertion for review. {{Fair use disputed}} is not a deletion shortcut. ˉˉ^anetode╦╩ 05:13, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

Vandalism? Wow, you really don't have any respect of users you disagree with. I have no desire to put up with such obstinate castigation; if you are not willing to put any effort into assuming good faith, it is time to seek recourse.

Third opinion

Seraphim Whipp 10:54, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

I believe I dealt with the issue that you had a problem with. I assessed the rationale adequately and addressed the FUC concerns that you had. There really is nothing to dispute.

Seraphim Whipp 19:25, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

Berating people you don't agree with is immature. I've had far more experience in dealing with Wikipedia image use policy than you have, look over my contributions and logs. I am willing to discuss this issue with you, but repeatedly making statements to the effect of "NO, I'M RIGHT AND YOU'RE AN IDIOT" is not going to get you anywhere in a collaborative environment. ˉˉ^anetode╦╩ 02:29, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

Your contrubs section sad "restoring free image, this does not count as article space)" Well It is the Michigan State College Seal.

U-bot (Xiaolin Showdown)

You placed a db tag on this. IMO neither the original article nor the redirect are appropraite for speedy deletion. The original had little content, but clear conteXt, by mentioning Xiaolin Showdown. The redir from a character to the larger fictional work is perfectly appropriate and does not fit any of the WP:CSD as far as I can see. Use WP:RfD if ypu think this should be deleted. DES ^(talk) 01:12, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

The same reasoning applies to Heylin Plant (Xiaolin Showdown) except in this case the redirect had been in effect for over a year, so the origianl article contents clearly have very little relevance to whether the redir should be deleted. DES ^(talk) 01:16, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

You may be correct that the original information was "meaningless" or perhaps one should say useless or unencyclopedic. (It was not patent nonsense.) That would have made the original articles worthy candidates for proposed deletion or WP:AFD, but not in my view for speedy deletion -- they clearly didn't fit WP:CSD#A1 as written. As for the redirects, the merits or demerits of the original articles aren't relevant -- the redirs should stand or fall on their own. These do not fit any of the speedy criteria for redirects. They redirect to a page that does exist; they are not cross-namespace redirs; and they were not created as a result of typos, plausible or implausible. Your argument that they are unlikely search terms may have merit, but it could be debated -- which is why this should IMO go through WP:RFD if these redirs are to be deleted. DES ^(talk) 14:17, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

Mike Flores

I recently added an edit to Mike Flores which you deleted for a good reason. see here However, if I can source the material, (which would be relatively easy as William Spaniel now has his own page), would the material I posted be appropriate? Thanks, stealthymatt 01:44, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for your help, however, I have another question. User:Smokizzy recently tagged the page William Spaniel for notability during its first stages of creation. Since then, the page has expanded by a large degree, and I have included 3rd party references confirming his notability. User:Smokizzy only recently got NPWatcher (see his talk page), and has possibly been using it multiple times (see his talk page) without giving a reason. Is there a way you can fix this? Thanks, stealthymatt 13:10, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

The problem is fixed now, as User:Smokizzy removed the notability tag, congratulating the article for its great improvement. Thanks again, stealthymatt 02:48, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

The simple, clear, and fair warning from Christopher arrived at 22:45 yesterday. At 23:02 you came back to FAR with "Cite your sources or go fuck yourself" in reply to Bishonen.[2] The comment alone would make one itchy to block, but could probably be passed over given a clean block record — but arriving immediately after the note above, and given your extreme dickishness on the review in general, it strikes me as real disruption. It occurred within the last 24 hrs, so I am blocking you for a day. Please consider how you can aid review processes with more civility. Your review comments at present are not helping anyone.

Fair use disputed for Image:Slander75.jpeg

Thanks for uploading Image:Slander75.jpeg. 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. Jay32183 02:48, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

My dispute is that no specific use is explained within the fair use rationale. Saying "This is a book cover in an encyclopedia" is not acceptable. You must explain, in detail, why the image is being used in the particular article(s). My dispute stands until that is met. Jay32183 16:59, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

Its a book cover that meets all the requirements for a book cover used to illustrate a book article. I do not understand what you consider is missing. There are thousand of book articles in wikipedia that have book cover images used to illustrate the article. The image page provides all the required information to support its existence.--CltFn 19:27, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

Let's try to keep it cool, OK?

Listen, Jay. I've been on Wikipedia for a long time. I know the policies and guidelines. I know that you do too. We interpret those policies differently.

Is there any particular reason you are deleting these images so that I can prove it wrong and the article can be back to normal?

  • Here's a new development. Having emailed the webmaster of CineOggi, a webzine, [6], they have agreed to drop the NoCommercial tag of their CC license on the images of their page.

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Order of the Phoenix (organisation)

What was your reasoning for closing Order of the Phoenix (organisation) as keep? Not one of the people saying "keep" refuted the claims made that the article should be deleted, or provided any evidence that it could be improved. Vote counting should never be used to close an AFD. Jay32183 04:56, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

Conversely, none of the people saying delete refuted the keep arguments. A lot of the delete arguments stated stuff like "the topic of this article has no real world notability" - too bad the opposite had already been proven a bit higher up! If you object to my closure, I suggest you get it reviewed. Dihydrogen Monoxide (H₂O) 22:44, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

Jay, when you said there was a 'clear' consensus to delete, are you counting your FIFTEEN comments as part of that consensus? It's a bit obsessive, and to further track down the closing editor simply tells me you may be taking this personally. I agree with DM - take it to DRV or put it back on the chopping block. the_undertow ^talk 23:10, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

I have read DRV. You are very quick to point out to other editors the plethora of guidelines that they probably have not read, btw. In a normal situation, I would consider contact with closing editor, of course, to be in accordance with this policy. However, responding to every opposing comment in an AfD, opining 15 times in a single AfD, going to the closing editor less than one hour after closure, then to DRV shows compulsion that I do not believe to be justified. And "Users hoping to become admins should not support bad arguments, and existing admins should know that" is a comment that baffles me. Nobody should support a bad argument, should they? And I have no idea to what the 'admin' comment refers. the_undertow ^talk 23:32, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

I have removed the CSD tag from this because you have used an invalid criteria. A5 only covers articles, for starters, and are for things that have been transwikied. As this is a redirect and has not been transwikied, the CSD tag did not apply. Natalie 20:57, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

Transwiki-ing things is great, but I think it's okay to leave the redirects to a main article. That way, people won't come across the completely empty page and think "I should create an article here". Natalie 21:08, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

Ye Art Cordially Invited to the Annex

Hello, My good Fellow, listen and I shalt telleth Ye a Tale of a Wiki that well comes All Manner of Articles relating to Fiction. What is This wonderful Place of Fantasy, You ask? It is the Annex, Haven to All fiction-related Refugee Articles from Wikipedia.

Before nominating or proposing a fiction-related Article for Deletion, It is My sincerest Hope that Ye import It to the Annex. Why do This, You wonder? Individuals have dedicated an enormous Amount of Time to writing These Articles, and ’twould be a Pity for the Information to Vanish unto the Oblivion where only Administrators could see Them.

Here is a Step-by-Step Process of how to Bringeth Articles into the Annex:

1. Ye shall need at least three Browser Tabs or Windows open. For the first Tab or Window, go to Special:Export. For the second, go here. (If Ye have not an Account at Wikia, then create One.) Do whatever Ye want for the third.
2. Next, open the Program known as Notepad. If Ye haveth It not, then open WordPad. Go to “Save as,” and for “Encoding,” select either “Unicode” or “UTF-8.” For “Save as type,” select “All Files.” For “File name,” input “export.xml” and save It. Leave the Window open.
3. Next, go to the Special:Export Window at Wikipedia, and un-check the two small Boxes near the “Export” Button. Input the Name of the Wikipedia Article which Ye wish to import to the Annex into the large Field, and click “Export.”
4. Right-click on the Page full of Code which appears, and clicketh on “View Source” or “View Page Source” or any Option with similar Wording. A new Notepad Window called “index[1]” or Something similar should appear. Press Ctrl+A to highlight All the Text then Ctrl+C to copy It. Close yon “index[1]” Window, and go to the Notepad “export.xml” Window. Press Ctrl+V to pasteth the Text There, and then save It by pressing Ctrl+S.
5. Now go to the Special:Import Window over at the Annex. Clicketh on “Browse…” and select the “export.xml” File. At last, click on “Upload file,” and Thou art done, My Friend! However, if It says 100 Revisions be imported, Ye be not quite finished just yet. Go back to Wikipedia’s Special:Export, and leave only the “Include only the current revision, not the full history” Box checked. Export That, copy the Page Source, close the “index[1]” Window, and go to the “export.xml” Window. Press Ctrl+A to highlight the Code all ready There, press “backspace” to erase It, and press Ctrl+V to pasteth the new Code There. Press Ctrl+S to save It, then upload once more to the Annex. Paste {{Wikipedia|{{PAGENAME}}}} at the Bottom of the imported Article at the Annex, and Ye art now finally done! Keepeth the “export.xml” File for future Use.

Thank Ye for using the Annex, My Friend — the Annex Hath Spoken 01:17, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

Alan Comer

Another editor has added the {{prod}} template to the article Alan Comer, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. BJBot (talk) 16:01, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

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) 12:15, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

Action potential

Hi Jay,

About two months ago, you voted to Remove action potential as a Featured Article. Since then, the article has been completely re-written and referenced to the gills. It also does not seem to fail any definite MoS criteria, although there's been a little discussion of how many sections to have in the Table of Contents. We'll also keep trying to improve the article. Nevertheless, if you think it's worth keeping as an FA, now would be a good time to change your vote to Keep; otherwise, now would be a good time to explain what you find still lacking in the article. Thanks for taking the time to reconsider the article! :) Willow (talk) 18:42, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

Wikiproject Magic: The Gathering

Hey, I noticed your recent work on assessing articles tagged with {{mtgproject}}, and I was wondering if you would like to join Wikiproject Magic: The Gathering. This Wikiproject is a place for editors interested in Magic: The Gathering and related articles to gather and collectively discuss ways to improve Magic: The Gathering articles. You can join by adding your name to this list or by adding {{Wikipedia:WikiProject Magic: The Gathering/Userbox}} to your userpage. Even if you decide that you don't want to join the Wikiproject, I hope that you'll continue to edit and improve Magic: The Gathering articles. Cheers, and happy editing! lifebaka (talk - contribs) 15:33, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

tag says third party references needed. who is the 2nd party in this case? and I guess the first party is the authors of the article right? St. Puid, Head of Assisi 00:33, 9 October 2008 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Michael Corvin

You might also want to take another look at this one. Your comment explains why the subject might not be worth a separate article, but a lack of references in the article is not a valid reason for deletion, only when said sources cannot be found with reasonable effort. Verifying the character exists within the universe and making it a redirect would take little effort. - Mgm|^(talk) 10:23, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Walter Paisley (2nd nomination)

Your !vote in this debate explains why we shouldn't have a separate article, but doesn't explain why you didn't choose for a merge or a redirect. According to the deletion policy, problems that can be handled through editing should not cause a deletion and the fact the actor played characters with this role repeatedly can be sourced, even if it is not the case right now. - Mgm|^(talk) 08:52, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

• I'm talking about salvaging content and giving the original author proper credit, rather than saving the article itself. - Mgm|^(talk) 09:34, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
• Since the original author could not be bothered to find sources for the content, s/he does not deserve credit. We should not preserve the content. If you have sources for expanding another article do that, don't copy this and see if the sources match up. Jay32183 (talk) 20:54, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
• That is your personal opinion, there's nothing in the rules and guidelines about people not deserving credit when they don't provide sources. In fact, we cannot delete accounts because every single edit needs to be accounted for. As for the content: why not preserve it? It's verifiable and relevant to the subject. When the referencing occurs has nothing to do with it. - Mgm|^(talk) 21:31, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
• I guess we disagree on the worth of the material then. Let's leave it to the rest of the community to form the consensus on who is right. - Mgm|^(talk) 08:42, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

Attention

I assure you I am paying very close attention, especially to uncivil comments like this. I recommend you pay a little more attention to the words you choose. Dreadstar † 04:48, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

Regarding WP:PLOT

Jay32183, you recently said "WP:PLOT specifically requires real-world context in all articles." That may have been true at one time, after Kyorosuke edited PLOT any without prior discussion, but PLOT no longer says such a thing. You may be interested to know that the editor who proposed WP:PLOT in the first place recently asked that PLOT be removed from WP:NOT. You also said "Things need to be notable in the real world, not the fictional world. That's why significant coverage of real world context is required." I don't really understand your stance, given your edits to List of Xiaolin Showdown characters, Shen Gong Wu, List of Shen Gong Wu revealed in Season One, List of Shen Gong Wu revealed in Season Two over the past 2 years. You might be interested in the ongoing discussion at WT:FICT. --Pixelface (talk) 13:56, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

Fiction

You can't describe a fictional universe without some plot detail that is not real world related. Just because one particular character has no real world information doesn't mean it shouldn't be included in the main article about a fictional universe. It easily can be, as long as the fictional universe itself has real world content.

Perhaps you should consider redirects instead. Actors and characters existing is easy to verify and their names make likely search terms. - Mgm|^(talk) 09:20, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

a suggestion

when reverting edits for policy issues, it is a good idea to indicate an explanation and a specific reference to the policy at the outset. telling editors what 'not to do' is unnecessary and sets a low bar of wp:civility that can lead to more contentious dialog. cheers. --emerson7 15:22, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Stop trying to delete everything with a blanket statement

Going through your recent contributions, you vote deletion for multiple articles with the exact same copy-pasted "reason". It isn't a vote. At least take enough time to study the case to tailor a unique response for each article's deletion.

As well, if you're going to mass-mark images for deletion in the span of minutes, then this is bot-like behavior and you should get approval for running such a bot. You are not a robot. Stop acting like one. --68.161.186.184 (talk) 13:18, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

CSD of Oddworld images

Hello. You've recently nominated three images for deletion three times each: File:Abes Oddysee screenshot Abe on Elum.jpg, File:Molluckprofit.jpg, and File:Mudokonpops2.jpg. The speedy deletion of all three of these files was contested by myself and Axem Titanium (talk · contribs), once each for each file. When I remove the CSD templates the second time, I stated that I believed the FUR to be valid and that any further nominations should be at WP:FFD, not WP:CSD. However, 2 hours later you had nominated all three files for speedy deletion again, with no additional reason provided beyond what you had already said.

I don't want to get into an edit war, so I was wondering if you could explain your reasoning behind re-adding the CSD tags even after they had been removed twice, or at least explain why you didn't give a different reason the third time. Thank you. –Drilnoth (T • C) 02:26, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

File:1-up (Pac-Man).png and File:1-up mushroom in Super Mario Bros.png

I'm not going to try and argue the case for these images - you're probably right about them. But if you're objecting to the use of the image, and not just its lack of rationale, it would have been easier for you - and a lot easier for me - if you'd just gone and proposed their deletion in the first place. CountingPine (talk) 09:22, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

Their uses were given on their pages as you originally saw them. If you'd disagreed with them then, it would have saved you even more time if you'd told me you planned to contest their provided uses. Then you wouldn't have had to make a case for their deletion. CountingPine (talk) 08:34, 11 March 2009 (UTC)

Ugh, sorry: I shouldn't have started this argument - I should admit I did primarily out of annoyance. Can I offer a draw, and an olive branch? Otherwise I think we'll reach an angsty stalemate. CountingPine (talk) 12:13, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

File:0414608b.jpg - use rationale

May, 2009

I have asked you to stop disruptive image tagging. Yet you are repeatedly re-tagging the image[7][8][9] and have called me a vandal.[10] Surely you know that kind of behavior is against the behavioral rules, e.g. WP:NPA, WP:AGF, WP:CIVIL, and WP:EW. You should also review WP:VANDAL to understand what vandalism is, and that it is not acceptable to accuse good faith editors of vandalism. Please desist at once, and self-revert your latest tag. I would ask you to handle this in a more mature way among collaborative editors. I see you're also edit warring against other editors on disputed image tagging as well.[11][12][13] The normal routine, as with any speedy deletion nomination, is that if an editor removes the deletion tag in good faith, and you still believe the item is deletable, you can nominate the item for a deletion discussion, in this case I believe Wikipedia:Files for deletion. If you won't follow process we can take it to WP:AN/I. Thanks, Wikidemon (talk) 20:24, 11 May 2009 (UTC)

• Final warning - you have had plenty of time to reform your behavior here. Yet you refuse. You have removed a source statement and non-free use rationale in support of gaming to have an image deleted. You are at WP:3RR on reverting a disputed image tag, and you are accusing good faith editors of vandalism. Please revert your latest reversion, and stop now, or I will report you to AN/I and you will quite possibly be blocked to prevent further disruption to the encyclopedia. Wikidemon (talk) 07:05, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on File:Szapinka.jpg. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. - ALLST✰R▼^echo _{wuz here @} 08:03, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

Request reason:

It is not an edit war. The image still has no source, so tagging it for speedy deletion is not edit warring, untagging it is vandalism

Decline reason:

The 3RR policy was designed to prohibit disruption, and that's what this edit war constituted. When an editor removes a speedy deletion tag in good faith, the appropriate course of action is to discuss it with the editor or take the page to a deletion discussion. Edit warring with multiple users to keep the tag on the page is a unhelpful exercise, as the same outcome (if it is truly speedy deletion material) could be achieved through the less disruptive means of posting to ANI or IFD. I'll also quote from the deletion policy: Anyone except a page's creator may contest the speedy deletion of a page by removing the deletion notice from the page... Either a page fits the speedy deletion criteria or it does not. If there is a dispute over whether a page meets the criteria, the issue is typically taken to deletion discussions...

Request reason:

Again, not an edit war. No source and no license cannot be disputed, and are not to be taken to FFD. It says so in the instructions. Removing a no source tag without adding a source, or a no license tag without adding a license is not contesting deletion, it is vandalism.

Decline reason:

No, it's not vandalism, and yes it is an edit war. Your continued inability to assume good faith and treat editors trying to maintain the encyclopedia as no different from common vandals is what is troubling here. You reverted multiple times, and there is no exception that covers this at WP:3RR. If you return to this disruptive behavior when your block expires, you may expect to be blocked again, for a longer period. Mangojuice^talk 13:44, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

• Edit warring is edit warring, regardless of whether there's a source on the image or not. You were also warned about it and continued. The license was changed to satisfy the image and that still wasn't good enough for you. Further, reverting people's edits and calling them "vandalism", when they clearly were not, is just downright rude. - ALLST✰R▼^echo _{wuz here @} 09:26, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

• It appears that numerous other users, acting in apparently good faith, were asking only for more discussion of the sort a blunt speedy tag cannot allow; if you're so convinced you're right, why are you so hostile to this request? – Luna Santin (talk) 09:28, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
  • There's nothing to discuss. No source is no source, no license is no license. This is exactly what speedy deletion is for. Images that don't indicate source, license, or permission are deleted, no exceptions. Working to delete those image is a positive contribution, while working to maintain them is a negative contribution. Removing a speedy deletion tag in such an instance is acting in bad faith. I won't revert anymore, but I am right. Jay32183 (talk) 22:27, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

Truce

I just want to say that I very much see your point about the Aubrey and Aundrea image I uploaded. While I still see some validity in keeping the Aubrey O'Day singing "At Last" image, I see your point there as well. I do not agree with you at all about images like the Reese and Zach Slater controversial kiss one (which has a lot of critical commentary about that kiss due to that very imagery having upset a lot of people), found in the Reese Williams and Bianca Montgomery article, in the same way that I would not feel that the image of Aerith's death in the Aerith Gainsborough article should be deleted (which also has a lot of critical commentary about that scene). However, I would like to call a truce between us instead of this back and forth that resembles bickering on our parts toward each other. I am usually not too rude in my replies; it is just that I felt you were being a little rude to me and I was annoyed by having a few of "my images" recently nominated for deletion. Seeing your past history with incivility, what you stated to me was not all that bad. And I am not holding your past warnings against you.

Basically, I am saying that I get your point in some parts of the discussions we have had with each other, and would like to move on. I apologize if you felt offended by my words. Flyer22 (talk) 02:28, 18 May 2009 (UTC)

Image deletion nominations

I have reverted a number of your recent image deletion nominations. You have been nominating a number of old images for deletion that were appropriate per the policies of the time, based on technical noncompliance with newer requirements. When those images were uploaded, the uploader's public domain tag was considered a sufficient claim that they were the copyright holder and intended to give their copyright to the image to the public domain. Frankly, nominating those for speedy deletion seems silly and misguided, and a deletion discussion would also be the wrong way to go. If you do wish to go through Wikipedia's old images to see if they should be purged for noncompliance with new policy, I suggest you start at Village Pump or some other central forum rather than nominating miscellaneous images for deletion. Please do be careful and work with other editors on your policy concerns. Wikidemon (talk) 07:26, 18 May 2009 (UTC)

Info' box

I believe that's deliberate. The stars of a series don't change from episode to episode, but guests are specific to episodes.

Xiaolin Showdown Wikia

What happened to the Xiaolin Showdown Wiki? 71.212.128.66 (talk) 18:57, 22 June 2013 (UTC)

• I don't really know. It redirects to another. Xiaolinpedia, I think. I am not involved. Jay32183 (talk) 18:59, 22 June 2013 (UTC)
  • Why did you cease involvement? The last time I saw the Xiaolin Showdown Wiki, you were rather active.71.212.128.66 (talk) 19:01, 22 June 2013 (UTC)
    • After the one I was working on disappeared, I decided I wouldn't work on the other. It looks like they're going for style over substance, which I don't like. Jay32183 (talk) 19:05, 22 June 2013 (UTC)
      • Why not discuss it with them? Can you tell me what you mean by style over substance?71.212.128.66 (talk) 19:06, 22 June 2013 (UTC)
