Woah!

How dare you archive everything on me Mr. Kip! Anyway, I've been doing well, started editing the page about my hometown Bradenton if you want to see my progress. :P Hope everything is going good with you. Talk to you soon! bigdawgs9 17:36, 3 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wow!

It seems everybody wants a piece of you. How famous are you becoming? --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 19:27, 03 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi

Are you adopting? Speed CG Talk 8:24, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

Would you adopt me? I'd ask your friends ThinkBlue or The Hybrid, but it seems they got a lot in their plate. Speed CG Talk 6:51, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

Edit to my talk page

Hi. I was just wondering about these two ([1] [2]) edits to my talk page. Does this mean that the image is OK? I did provide source information and a Fair Use Rationale when I uploaded the image (although I didn't have a direct link to the source until now). Thanks, Zagalejo^^^ 01:29, 6 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

OK then. Zagalejo^^^ 04:46, 6 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This is cool, you need to click edit to see it, though

Your comment

Source wasn't the problem That sentence isn't encyclopedic, it's only trivia wich wikipedia discourages. I have removed it once again.--Monnitewars (talk) 21:18, 6 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, the sentence helps to assert the notability of the event, which helps it to pass WP:N. I will be re-adding it. The Hybrid 21:28, 6 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Randy Orton

Was just a small joke, i'm sure you understand. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sepmix (talkcontribs)

You removed huge chunks of informatrion from this article in your update which purportedly was simply to mark an image for deleteion. Please be more careful in the future.--Dr who1975 17:53, 8 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"Source" of an image

Hi, I don't know what you want me to do. Is "Cover of a single with some of Beniamino Gigli's historical recordings (1933-1938), published by Electrola c.1960" not a source? The image is the photo (taken by me) of a record cover, as it says in the image description page. So again, what is it I can do for you? Best wishes, <KF> 00:00, 13 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

from the edit history of Image:B_Gigli.JPG:

  • (cur) (last) 11:23, October 13, 2007 KipSmithers (Talk | contribs | block) (222 bytes) (This image is up for deletion per WP:CSD. using TW) (rollback | undo)
  • (cur) (last) 00:25, October 13, 2007 KF (Talk | contribs | block) (173 bytes) (undo)
  • (cur) (last) 23:52, October 12, 2007 KipSmithers (Talk | contribs | block) (186 bytes) (This image is up for deletion per WP:CSD. using TW) (undo)

First you tell me I should add that it was me who took the photo and remove your tag, and a few hours later you add yet another tag. If you want to delete the image, why don't you say so in the first place? <KF> 19:55, 14 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There, source info added. Take a look and tell me if I need to do anything more. Regards, —Vanderdeckenξφ 18:00, 15 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

WWE No Way Out

Can you help me out with an IP that seems to be persistent? He/she keeps putting in the that Vince McMahon cheat The Rock and that Hogan should have won. They don't seem to get it though, and I can't really do much since it's not technically vandalism (which means I am limited in how many times I can revert it). TJ Spyke 22:02, 19 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

WWE No Way Out (Reply)

It's not a personal analysis, its a documentary. This is the truth man which YOU don't seem to get it though. I saw the match. Hogan pinned the Rock and was actually winning before Vince McMahon turned off the light over the place and the referee gave the chair to the rock to hit hogan and win. It was cheating and it was disgusting SO let it be written. Thank you —Preceding unsigned comment added by TomJBlane (talkcontribs) 02:03, 20 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

LAX

You're now "changing" your username to LAX? What does the LAX mean in your case (Los Angeles, the airport, the TNA tag team)? The Chronic 23:28, 24 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Do I change the Clan box to LAX? --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 00:06, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
He likes wrestling...I'd assume it's the TNA team. BTW, it's unofficial, meaning he's still Kipsmithers, just changing the name portion of his page. Tyler Warren (talk/contribs) 00:27, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I realize he's technically still KipSmithers (unless he tries to go through the WP:CHU process, which may not succeed), just like ThinkBlue is technically still Zerorules677. The Chronic 00:57, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well no, the user didn't do vandalism.

The user you just reverted the edits of in Kenny McCormick's article might not have meant to vandalize. They might be new to Wikipedia, and don't know the guidelines for proper edits, or it might have been a joke. Still, it is good that you warned them about doing such things; hopefully they'll take the heed, because it is very sad when a user has to be blocked (even though it's for the benefit of the encyclopedia). The French equivelant of "There is no more bread ("Il ny a pas plus pain") actually translates more as "He there has not more bread". October 26th, 2007. —Preceding comment was added at 10:34, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

Story of the Year

You seem to have inadvertently reverted some edits of this page that weren't vandalism. Whilst this page has been vandalized, just make sure that you don't remove content that isn't vandalism. --Neon white 18:58, 26 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, I noticed that you have Twinkle app, and you've been using it for some time. I just "installed" Twinkle, but I almost no idea how to use it (besides the "warn", "arv", "csd", "last" and "app" tabs at the top of the window). I was wondering if you could tell me how to use it. Thanks! The Chronic 21:37, 26 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the tips! (by the way, you have all those vandallism fighting tools. Is that how you revert so much vandalism?) The Chronic 22:09, 28 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Sure, I'll help you with Hard Justice. I'll only be able help with the background section (since I wasn't able to watch the event). It will be more challanging to find references though, since TBA doesn't directly publish out articles of sorts (like WWE). Say, didn't you have a past project trying to expand Lockdown 2007? (just wondering) The Chronic 22:26, 28 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Okay (I didn't notice you had multiple snadboxes). The Chronic 22:35, 28 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

LAX

You officially changed your username from KipSmithers to LAX. Okay. This is just a tip to you: you may want to create a new account under your old usernames (Kip Smithers & KipSmithers). Since you changed your username, your old usernames are avalible for re-creation. This is just a tip for you (see my old username (User:MITB LS) for a tip). The Chronic 21:17, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

By the way, thanks for copying off mine. The Chronic 21:19, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

TNA Victory Road expansion

I've noticed that you're one of the people involved in the PPV expansion project. Well, I've decided to pitch in too. I've decided to try to expand TNA Victory Road 2007. I'm working on it on my sandbox. I was wondering if you'd be willing to help expand it. If you could, thanks! The Chronic 05:15, 28 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Kor1994.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Kor1994.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 01:26, 7 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Your image-tagging spree

You say in your edit summaries that you have put up these images for speedy deletion, when you have not in fact done so. You put a disputed fair-use tag on them, which means they will be deleted in seven days.

More importantly, I'd like to know why you think their fair-use qualifications are insufficient... Some of those images are ones I wrote rationales for. You can respond here if you'd like so others can follow this. Grandmasterka 17:20, 10 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I use Twinkle, it's an automated edit summary and I don't know why it says "This image is up for deletion per WP:CSD.". As for the disputed fair-use rationales, not all of the requirements are met and therefore have a "disputed fair-use rationale" (see: WP:NFURG). -- LAX 17:36, 10 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Of course they're free!

I produced those images myself, and I am not using them for profit, and I know Wikipedia won't do that. Wikipedia had to pay no price for the images, why aren't they free? Wilhelmina Will 05:12, 11 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

But I'm the one who screenshot them on my own computer. Wilhelmina Will 06:23, 11 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The show is copyrighted? We can't include that in the article until a reliable, third-party verification comes up! Wilhelmina Will 06:34, 11 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I merely thought that was what you meant by all that talk about the show being copyrighted. Wilhelmina Will 07:04, 11 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ohhh... that's what you meant! I get it now. Well, if that's how the rules work, I guess that's how I'll have to play them. In the meantime, would you happen to know where I can find images of characters like Kira, Spiff, Robear and Robert, and The Great Bamzeani? I could always just screenshot some of them, but I'm still having difficulty figuring out how it works; it took me three weeks just to get each of the images I already screenshotted done. Wilhelmina Will 07:31, 11 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for passing it! I will probably improve it to make it an FA in the future, but I will possibly have to replace the WrestleView sourcing before nominating it for FA. Thanks again! Davnel03 12:13, 11 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

One Night Stand (2006) is another article that I nominated for GA, but hasn't had anyone review it. Unlike ONS 2005, that doesn't have any WrestleView sourcing. Would you mind reviewing that too (it was up for GA before, but was speedy failed because all of the sources were from WWE.com). Thanks! Davnel03 17:52, 11 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. The backlog at GAC is huge, it would of just been sitting there for a month like ONS 2005 was. Davnel03 18:09, 11 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

From the Editor

Welcome to the inaugural edition of the WikiProject Professional wrestling newsletter! I hope this will be a good source of news to those people interested in what's happening around our pro wrestlimg community. I plan to release it every Sunday.

This newsletter will just be a way to get the community announcements to people who don't have the time to check the mesageboards, as well that to those just curious about the news. The newsleter will consist of a project news section (to do with what's happening on Wikipedia), and a current events section (relating to news in the "real world"). The newslette will also contain the Collaboration of the Week announcement.

That's all. If you have any feedback or suggestions, please post them at this talk page.
