Welcome to Wikipedia, ShadowRanger/Archive 1! I'm Celestianpower. I noticed that you were new and/or have yet to receive any messages so I just thought I'd pop in to say "hello". Wikipedia can be a little intimidating at first, since it's so big but we won't bite so Be Bold and get what you know down in microchips! If you do make a mistake, that's fine, we'll assume good faith and just correct you: it'll take a few seconds maximum! Here, however, are a few links to get you started:

There are lots of policies and guidelines to get to grips with but they all make your life easier and your stay more fun in the long run. If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. Please be sure to sign your posts on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~) to produce your name and the current date, along with a link to your user page.

Your Recent Edits to Power Rangers: Mystic Force

Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and it has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. Floria L 18:51, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

Huh?

I have no idea what that means, but those episode titles have been confirmed to be true, that is why I added them.


If you had bothered to read the warning tag, you would know that BurgundyRanger is a wikitable source. Pay attention please. Floria L 23:36, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

I don't know what wikitable is, but I those titles were confirmed by BurgundyRanger.

And as i said.. BurgundyRanger does not qualify as usuable on wikipedia. BurgundyRanger is not a published, official source. Floria L 02:21, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

Ok then, but he has never been wrong before

You could be right a billion times, but its not a published source. If you had bothered to read the warning, we wouldn't have this conversation. BurgundyRanger is a FAN-source, not an OFFICIAL source. Floria L 13:45, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

Do not add pictures of characters from the Power Rangers series to articles on their Super Sentai counterparts.—Ryūlóng (竜龍) 21:35, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

Mystic Force

Stop changing the airdates just because Great Britain got the finale before the US did. It is getting disruptive.—Ryūlóng (竜龍) 02:59, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

The airdates reflect the Country of Origin, Mystic Force (while filmed in New Zealand) is always aired in the U.S. first. The last two episodes are the only ones that aired first there. Having the Original Run reflect TWO countries is stupid, therefore it shows U.S. run.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by ShadowRanger (talkcontribs) .

Regardless, it is the original airdate. Mystic Fate aired in the UK first. 2006-11-04 is the original airdate.—Ryūlóng (竜龍) 03:12, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

I've talked to the cast about the same thing with a different show before, and what I said is what I was told

What?Ryūlóng (竜龍) 03:21, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

I meant the staff

RE: Sinnoh

No, it doesn't need a section, since there are no town articles: they are all merged with the main article. Thanks and regards, —Celestianpower háblame 19:41, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

The reason why there are no town articles is because someone deleted them all. Sinnoh is one of the four main regions and it should have its own section alongside the other 3. If this main region doesn't need to have its own section then the other three don't either.

Update them to allow for UTF dates.—Ryūlóng (竜龍) 01:51, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

Notability of Josephine Davison

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Josephine Davison, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Josephine Davison seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Josephine Davison, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

Hi
I don't quite get this edit. Do you say that it doesn't break properly in this version and the text is wider than the box? I don't see that here, and the thing with the hard linebreak is that it forces it to use two lines even if it doesn't need to. I'd really rather remove it again.
Cheers, AmaltheaTalk 18:14, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

Using two lines is better then having half of the song title off of the template.

---Shadow (talk) 22:14, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

That shouldn't happen though. I've just tested it with three browsers that I have at hand, and all are doing fine with it. Are you per chance using a rather obscure browser or an older version of one? Is that happening with other navboxes as well? Is it happening in other lines if you resize the browser window? --AmaltheaTalk 22:59, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

Your question

I have undid your edit at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List_of_Power_Rangers_monsters_(2nd_nomination) because the debate is archived and the page even says "please do not modify it". However, I do have an answer to your question as to why the articles were deleted. They were deleted because the editors saying delete reached a consensus, where the editors saying keep didn't. This is one thing you should remember in deletion debates. Deletion debates are discussions, not votes. —Mythdon (talkcontribs) 21:51, 23 October 2008 (UTC)

Removal of fact tag's

Don't remove fact tags again, unless the information is sourced. Britney Spears is a WP:GA article and it's quality must be maintained. Further removal of fact tags with no explanation will be considered disruptive and the appropriate action will need to be taken. — Realist2 14:37, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

Because "It really happened, I swear, honest" isn't a rational for removing fact tags. The info must be sourced by a third party. Read WP:RS for further details. Cheers. — Realist2 00:52, 22 November 2008 (UTC)

Bridges of Minnesota

I just noticed and replied to your earlier question on Wikipedia talk:Help desk. If you are still interested in the subject, here is a copy of my reply and some more information:

Before you try to get permission from copyright holders, start by picking the low-hanging fruit, in this case that would be looking for images that the authors have already licensed for free re-use. I recently wrote a template {{Flickr free}} that searches Flickr for photos under free licenses making them suitable for uploading to Commons:
  • Search Flickr for images with the keywords: Minnesota bridge under these licenses: cc-by or cc-by-sa
Those two searches find hundreds of photos suitable for uploading to Commons, although before uploading them you should check to make sure no one else has already uploaded them. I'll leave more information on your talk page.

For more information, see my notes about uploading photos from Flickr, in:

Good luck. --Teratornis (talk) 02:25, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

Kyle

We told you this kind of stuff about Mystic Force two years ago. Same thing holds. Deal with it.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 04:45, 25 January 2009 (UTC)

I have removed a claim that you recently re-inserted due to the fact that the claim was uncited, and that it needed to be sourced. Your use the edit summary "Why removed? It's true." doesn't seem too compliant to the purpose of WP:V. Please do not re-insert this claim, unless you cite a reliable source. —Mythdon t/c 06:41, 12 April 2009 (UTC)

Sean Combs did not say that he would be looking for new members for Danity Kane. He said he would be forming a new group. Thus, I removed that part. Flyer22 (talk) 02:02, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

I replied on my talk page. I apologize for the mistake. Flyer22 (talk) 02:20, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

Re: Circus Tour

Hello! You're right, there is no proper source stating the Paris dates for the tour. I'm not even sure how I missed this. I checked the Palais Omnisports de Paris-Bercy website and the tour isn't even mentioned on there. I would think that it would be, since it lists ever other upcoming concert at that venue. I guess until it's officially confirmed, it should be removed. Thanks for bringing this up, I would have never even noticed for some reason, lol. Percxyz (talk) 06:37, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

Radar

Hello, Shadow. I was wondering if you could add your opinion (unbiased, of course) to an issue that's being discussed on the Radar talk page regarding a second "Promotional single" info box on the article for the Blackout-release of the song.

Just for reference, here's what the article looks like with the second info box added: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Radar_(song)&oldid=292883153

The discussion is taking place here. Thanks in advance. Percxyz (Call me Percy, it's easier) 21:28, 29 May 2009 (UTC)

Please do not add original research or novel syntheses of previously published material to our articles . Please cite a reliable source for all of your information. Thank you. — Please comment R2 16:10, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

Britney's singles collection

But on the page it says that it is a rumoured album and only gives facts about the album. Many people want to know information on the rumoured album and they can see that on The Singles Collection (Britney Spears album) instead of searching numerous fansites. PlatinumFire (talk) 17:26, 29 July 2009 (UTC)


Alright, atleast dont delete the page, it will be a good startoff if some reliable source confirm the new album. thanks. PlatinumFire (talk) 17:30, 29 July 2009 (UTC)

Spears's picture

Please refrain from further attempts to change the picture to the womanizer promo picture. Just because you like it does not give wiki the legal rights to host or display it. The picture itself is scheduled for deletion unless the copyright status is confirmed. Thanks. MrMarmite (talk) 09:11, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

Britney Spears singles TEMPLATE

Articles Breathe on Me and (I Got That) Boom Boom have been redirected to In the Zone, so why u keep adding them back? And songs That's Where You Take Me, I've Just Begun (Having My Fun) and the What's Going On promo collaboration aren't notable enough to stay in the template, I mean Breathe on Me was more notable than these three songs. Opinion? --PlatinumFire 12:06, 5 September 2009 (UTC)

ME AGAINST THE MUSIC

"AGAINST" is a preposition, so it should be "Me against the Music" and not "Me Against the Music.

Orphaned non-free image (File:BritneySpears2009TeenChoice.jpg)

Fair use rationale for File:SinglesFanBoxSet.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:SinglesFanBoxSet.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. — ξxplicit 06:57, 9 October 2009 (UTC)
