[edit] Hey Man

I just wanted to tell you that the guy you gave an award to, TheRanger, is abusing his authority. I'd rethink that award, if I were you. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Sbrown411 (talk • contribs).

Sorry for the above comment it comes from a vandal that I have warned while doing recent change patrol. He has also attacked my user page and talk page many times. Also thanks for the Barn Star it really means a lot to me and I have placed it on my user page. TheRanger 01:42, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] a bit confused...

I'm trying to trace the history of Trapped in the Closet (South Park) and I'm finding it a bit confusing. When you moved the article today, how did you do it? Not by copy-pasting, I hope... -- Antaeus Feldspar 00:21, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

Done. And yes, I tested it, so it wasn't just BS =). iNaNimAtE 02:28, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks

Hi Michael, thanks for awarding me a barnstar. I must say, it's great to be recognised. I have enjoyed editing on Wikipedia and your award has made it an even more enjoyable experience. Thanks again. LittleOldMe 09:53, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Edit summary

The edit for the Irish Festival should have been made since Irish Weekend in North Wildwood is a much larger Irish Festival in terms of the number of persons that attend during the course of the weekend. I do not understand what an edit summary is maybe you could help me in adding it to the page. Thanks —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.39.20.52 (talk • contribs).

An edit summary is small field below your edit-box. It is used to explain the edit you are doing, and why you are doing it. Michaelas10 (T|C) 16:36, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] List of List of Buffy the Vampire Slayer episodes episodes

I'll keep at it. It's going to take a while to do them all, though. We've got what, 8 more days? - Peregrinefisher 22:46, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

I'm going to do 5 now. Depending on my schedule, I will also do 7 if I can. - Peregrinefisher 17:01, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] References?

I would like to ask you - where did you find the references for the release dates for the DVDs on Buffy the Vampire Slayer DVDs? I've been looking for a long time and I didn't find anything. Michaelas10 (T|C) 08:34, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

The Buffy release dates were filled in on the Buffy article a long time ago. However I found out the Angel release dates, it's quite confusing because the sets are repackaged with new release dates, I originally used old reviews for the DVDs for when they first came out (I saved the links in a file but have lost that file now). But the USA/UK dates (for both Buffy and Angel) can be found at these links:

Thank you for your answer. What are the sources for region 4 (Australia) release dates? Michaelas10 (T|C) 13:07, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
I just searched the history: The info was given by by User:Imjusthappy on 20th March 2006. The change can be seen in this edit and the several edits by the same user immiediately following. User:Imjusthappy may be someone who knows some references, alternatively Australian Google gives the option to just search Australian pages, I had a quick look and couldn't spot the original Australian Buffy dates, but an Australian Buffy fan would have a better knowledge of where to look on Australian web sites. -- Paxomen 13:54, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
I asked User:Imjusthappy, and they just replied:
Re: Australian Buffy dvd dates.
I didn't get them from a website. But from my my old Buffy videos, that had trailers at the start of each tape saying when they would be released. But for season 6/7 I just remembered the dates, since I listed them on my calendar. -- Unsigned (but from User:Imjusthappy)
Thanks -- Paxomen 13:26, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
I'm sorry, but I can't list it this way. That would be original research. Michaelas10 (Talk) 13:27, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Disambig orphaned

I was trying to straighten out the diambigs and the articles between A Streetcar Named Desire (disambiguation) and A Streetcar Named Desire. Can you help correct my problem? Sr13 04:00, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

I've changed the redirect and added a redirect link on top of all articles, hope that helps. Michaelas10 (T|C) 15:03, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Google co-op

Any suggestion where I should place the example on the Google Co-op page ? Any suggestions are welcome ! Bart l 19:36, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

No, I don't think any examples should be added to Wikipedia. Unless the Wiki-search proves to be notable (in which case, should probably have its own section in the article), no need to add it as an example. Michaelas10 (T|C) 19:53, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Attacks - ?

You placed an attack warning template on my talk page, and I have no idea why. If it's in reference to my request to PJ Pete's continual requests of me to add/remove/change things that he could be doing, I don't find it valid. I would like, actually, to know how to block PJ Pete from posting to my Talk page for this very reason. He should be making any changes he wants, not asking others to do it. I have no interest in making any of the changes he wants to make, and I have asked him repeatedly (as have others) to please stop. Please let me know why this attack warning was placed on my page, and please let me know how to address this issue. PacificBoy 15:04, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

Although I do understand your concerns of PJ Pete's behavior, and I agree what he does is wrong, you may not post messeges with this tone over his talk page, this is not acceptable. Please refer to Wikipedia:Civility for more information. Michaelas10 (T|C) 15:12, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
I understand your removal of said comment. However, if I'm going to be taken to task for my responses, I feel that his behavior should be addressed with him, as well. Please review his talk page and his contributions. There seems to be a real disconnect in his understanding of how WP works, and I'm not the only one who is frustrated by his requests and inability to follow the rules. PacificBoy 15:31, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
I've emailed him per a WP:WYF request. Michaelas10 (T|C) 15:33, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
Thank you. PacificBoy 15:38, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Highway's RfA

Thank you for your comments, I wasn't trying to be sneaky at all, I answered Hoopydink's question, freely admitting I removed them. I didn't actually know we had discussion rules, sorry. Highway Ringo Starr! 11:54, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

I remmember reading a few days ago in the guidelines that removing owns comments of pages is not allowed and is not a civil thing to do as it might put others' comments in a different context. Michaelas10 (T|C) 12:36, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
Here, please refer to the talk page guidelines for more information. Michaelas10 (T|C) 12:54, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
I'm terribly sorry, those guidelines aren't actually listed at the five pillars, the 42 policies or the 16 rules pages. Which is why I've missed it. I honestly didn't have sinister intentions, would you prefer if I re-added the text and striked it. My RfA is somewhat of a hit-and-miss, my nominator had advised to try and communicate with oppose voters to calm situations, and then I started getting more opposes by replying, so I removed them and got more opposes. It's really very depressing about what RfA has turned. Thoughts welcome, Highway Ringo Starr! 13:11, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
I'm really sorry about the misunderstanding, I've re-added all the removed material and I want to apologize. Thanks for showing me the policy, I really should be added to the headlining pages. Cheers, Highway Ringo Starr! 13:44, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks

Musan is a city near the border of china on tumen river. the city is also noted in the movie "the children of the secret state"- they said that it's like ghost town. 84.94.62.150 19:36, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for correcting the information, but as I said on your talk page, before making an important edit please add an edit summary to it or discuss it on the article's discussion page. Michaelas10 (Talk) 19:40, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Metallica Edit

Hey Michael just wondering why you reverted my edit to the Metallica page? It was only a short edit, which has been reported several times over the years most notably to my knowledge by Kerrang in a 2000 article. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 85.210.190.242 (talk • contribs).

I'm sorry, but "after allegedly kicking James' dog" did sound a lot like vandalism. When making factural changes to the article, especially such as the one described above, always try to reference you edits. To avoid further confusion, please consider creating an account. Michaelas10 (Talk) 15:14, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks for reverting edits on my page

Many thanks for spotting (just before I did) the edits on my user page that rendered parts of it unreadable and others badly formatted. I have no idea why my page attracted this attention, though I have reported some people for vandalism recently.  DDS  talk 18:20, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

Sure, no problem. Good thing these user space edits get highlighted in VandalProof. Michaelas10 (Talk) 18:36, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Editor Review

Thanks for the feedback on the editor review. I am activley working on creating new articles. I have actually taken a step back in the past week or so to work on articles over vandal fighting. Most recently, The Joint Expedition Against Franklin and the USS Hunchback. YOur input was greatly appreciated! I know I have a ways to go before I could have a successful RFA, so, that is why I am trying to expand my horizons now! If you ever see me make a rookie mistake, please feel free to point it out, I assure you it is not in bad faith. Thanks again! Chris Kreider 01:21, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] My RfA

top Hello Michaelas10. I wanted to thank you with flowers (well, flower) for taking the time to participate in my RfA, which was successful. I'm very grateful for your support, and for the sage snippet of advice. I assure you I'll continue to serve the project to the very best of my ability and strive to use the admin tools in a wise and fair manner. Please do let me know if I can be of assistance and especially if you spot me making an error in future. Many thanks once again. Yours, Rockpocket 06:35, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Userpage deletion

I thought it odd that you would flag your userpage for deletion, but obliged anyway. If for some reason it was a mistake, let me know and I'll undelete it promptly. EVula // talk // ☯ // 22:55, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

I had a few revisions of the user page I wanted to remove, but instead of asking for oversight, I decided that it would be easier to delete the userpage entirely. I have now restored it. Michaelas10 (Talk) 13:01, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
Alrighty. I just wanted to make sure that someone hadn't perhaps snagged your password or something. EVula // talk // ☯ // 19:48, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Buffy

Do you know what's happening to the episode pages? Are they being deleted? For instance, Never Kill a Boy on the First Date (Buffy episode). - Peregrinefisher 19:26, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

It seems like all these pages were using copyrighted material from buffyguide, as stated in their deletion log. Michaelas10 (Talk) 19:28, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Eminem.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the source and creator of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the source and creator of the image on the image's description page, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided source information for them as well.

Thanks for tracking down a freely-licensed image of Eminem and uploading it to the Wikipedia. Your efforts are much appreciated. --Yamla 19:52, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

Sure, no problem. Although I'm not very happy with this one, no images with a higher quality could be found on Flickr. Michaelas10 (Talk) 20:01, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Blanking

I was under the impression that blanking discussions and warnings that are no longer current is now allowed. There's been some discussion about it. (I'm assuming the when you said "blanking is now allowed" you meant "not allowed"). And what's my talk page to you anyway? Cardinal Wurzel 20:41, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

I meant it was not allowed, per users who reverted your removal of warnings, such as Yamla, and your blocking. Michaelas10 (Talk) 20:45, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
Although, you may feel free to archive non-current warnings or move them to a different user subpage. Michaelas10 (Talk) 21:06, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

Again: 1) what's my talk page to you? 2) consensus is that blanking of talk pages IS allowed for issues that are no longer current. I was reading that yesterday on Yamla's page. Are we going to have an edit war on my own talk page or are you going to back off? Cardinal Wurzel 21:08, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

Please note that the talk page doesn't belong to you, it belong to the Wikimedia Foundation and everyone retain the right to patrol it. All of these warnings are just over 2 weeks old, and that means the warnings are still current and the blanking/moving rules do not apply. Michaelas10 (Talk) 21:18, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

Define "current". We're talking about warnings for pics that have already been deleted. And I'm still at a loss as to why you care about my talk page. Cardinal Wurzel 21:56, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

I say wait about a month and a half from now before removal, this is the generally accepted time. I care about every violation. Michaelas10 (Talk) 09:29, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] WikiProject Awards News

There are several issues that the WikiProject needs to address.

  1. Do we need a coordinator (or more than one) to coordinate our efforts and act as an arbiter? Please place your thoughts here.
  2. Could someone work on archiving the talk page Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject Awards?
  3. Do we need to develop better guidelines for the Wikipedia:WikiProject awards?
  4. Finally, could you please weigh in on the following discussions so we can move them to conclusion:
    1. LGBT Barnstar
    2. Islamic Award
    3. Working Man’s Barnstar.

[edit] Thanks

I wanted to thank you for the vandal patrolling and vandalism reverts on Tourette syndrome: it gets slammed often, and I appreciate the efforts of all who help out there. I also hope you won't be discouraged from participating at WP:FAR because of some reactions to your FAR of James Joyce; you are correct that inline citations are required on all FAs, but some editors aren't happy about that change. We can use more reviewers on WP:FAR, so I hope you'll dig in and help out (the articles at the bottom of the list need more attention). Sandy (Talk) 15:19, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Pet template?

Hi there. I noticed your request for a "common pets" box, and I'm willing to take on the job of creating it. To do that, I need to know more about what kind of a template you were thinking of. Are you thinking about a nav box like {{Old Kingdom}} with animal types instead of article classifications? Please enlighten me: then I can create a nice template that can go on that article and related ones. :) Thanks, Nihiltres 20:02, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

I'm sorry but I already I finished about a half of it. I just needed more votes on the proposal before creating it on the template namespace. It is going to look somewhat like this:
Common pet species
Mammals: Horses | Dogs | Cats | Rodents | Rabbits | Ferrets | Fennecss | Hedgehogs | Goats | Alpacas | Pigs | Monkeys | Donkeys | Skunks | Deers
Birds: Parrots | Finches | Doves | Cockatiels | Ducks | Peafowls

It looked pretty good to me, so I moved it into mainspace. Hope I didn't step on your toes. If you want to work on it more you still can, you just have a bigger audience. --Dgies 07:48, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Footnotes section

I see that in Belgrade you moved Footnotes section above External links. Is there any guideline which says that it is the preferred order, or else why did you do it? Nikola 17:02, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

Ehhm, although I did not find a proper rule over this in the Manual of Style, this is a widely accepted regulation, as seen from many recent FAC reviews and most FA articles. Michaelas10 (Talk) 17:13, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

Hi, I noticed you adding symbols to your statements on AfD debates. There was a very brief fad for this a while back but it was rapidly decided to be a bad idea because it encourages the idea that AfD is a vote, which it definitely is not. Guy (Help!) 15:15, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] South Park

I've changed the images because I had put these on weeks ago but they were then removed. The new images are more specific in my eyes and make it easier to tell what episode is what. As for the captions, I'm working on them if you'll give me a chance. I haven't used them much and am still confused with where they go. Don't replace the images though it took me nearly half an hour to sort them.

Micahelas10, can you please pop in to Wikipedia:Featured article review/James Joyce and give us your update/view on progress made so far? Thanks, Sandy (Talk) 13:54, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Slayer

Thanks for the advice. I changed all the sources, didnt realize there was the citeweb and i did it the hard way :(. Also it appears the images dont have 'fair use rationale' i added some stuff to them but i'm not sure if it's whats required? Perhaps you could check if you have a few spare minutes [1][2] Also if there's anymore CC it would be appreciated, and thanks for the welcome! :) M3tal H3ad 03:13, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

Good enough. But.. there seems to be no source mentioned on the logo image. Michaelas10 (Talk) 09:42, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
Wow, wasn't expecting that much help. Thanks a lot greatly appreciate it! M3tal H3ad 14:20, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

Thankyou for your input, once again its greatly appreciated. About the sources, I'm having trouble finding some so i will probably remove the text (mainly about SS-3). Also i was thinking of adding a picture of Josef Mengele (Angel of death)at the start of controversy to give the article balance, in that it will look good with a picture on the right and left in that area?. Seeing as you seem very experienced would it look good?. Thanks again M3tal H3ad 12:12, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

Hello, i was wondering if you thought Slayer is worthy of GA status now. As you can see it underwent a huge make-over since last nomination. The GA process can take sometime so tweaks here and there can always be done. I would also like to thank you for all the help and especially getting me to start work on it by just leaving me a message :). The only problem i can see with it is the sentence about the bans, delays etc in the lead using 'resulting', but i didn't know how else to word it. Thankyou for your time :) M3tal H3ad 09:47, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
Please ignore my comment, article is undergoing a huge expansion and alot of work will be done, sorry to bother you. M3tal H3ad 11:37, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thank you

For being the first to participate in my editor review. I will take good heed of your advise and I thank you for your time. Cheers, Dfrg.msc 1 . 2 . Editor Review 06:17, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

No worries mate, you are a good editor and if/when you run for admin you can count on my support. Dfrg.msc 1 . 2 . Editor Review 00:15, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Question

Hiya, you left a message on my talkpage, but I'm not sure what it's about? [3] Did you perhaps mean to leave it on someone else's page? --Elonka 19:06, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

I was referring to Essjay in my comment, saying it is against Wikipedia's policies to edit other peoples' comments, which also includes correcting spelling mistakes. Michaelas10 (Talk) 19:09, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
Ah, keep in mind that there's a difference between editing people's comments, and editing a guideline page. If I see a spelling error in someone's personal comment on a Talk/Discussion page, then I shouldn't change it. But if it's on a policy/guideline page, it's fair game for fixing. --Elonka 19:37, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
Oh I see, I thought he meant discussion pages by saying "copyediting of my spelling errors". Thank you for pointing it out. Michaelas10 (Talk) 19:56, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hello

I see that you are on editor review. Cool! A question- How do you make a page that links to yours (such as your userboxes page)? Great if you could help! Sr13 04:17, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

If you would like to create a userboxes subpage, just create one at User:Sr13/Subpagename. You can link it from your main userpage as well, using {{main}}. Michaelas10 (Talk) 13:00, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] niger -> Niger on Günther Enderlein

Actually I think niger was intended, so I rolled back your AWB changes. Gzkn 12:53, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

I probably confused it with Niger, which should be capitalized. Thank you for the notice. Michaelas10 (Talk) 12:57, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] re: RfA nom

Thanks for the RfA nom, Michael! It means a lot to me, and I'm, well, kinda flattered that people think I'm doing an OK job :) Like I said in my declining message, I'm not thinking about running 'til March/April, so I hope I continue to do well at least until then! Cheers, riana_dzasta 14:22, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, I've seen that. Therefore, I am instead planning to co-nominate you on your future RfA. Michaelas10 (Talk) 14:27, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for the vote of confidence! You're a champion :) riana_dzasta 14:30, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] FAC for Bacteria

An editor has made some major changes to this article, could you please return to the FAC and provide some feedback on whether or not these are an improvement? TimVickers 21:24, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

I didn't like the section splitting and some of the formatting done was against the Manual of Style, so I'd prefer version 1. However, I believe its already too late to voice an opinion over this as the article was already featured. Michaelas10 (Talk) 15:54, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Megadeth FAC - song samples

Hi, thanks for voting on the Megadeth FAC page. I included so many samples from following the style of other music featured articles, such as The KLF, Pink Floyd, or Rush (band). I think that a band like Megadeth (or Slayer for that matter), with so many albums, and such a drastic change in sound over the years, deserve proper representation of each "era". Hell, if the KLF can have so many, why not MEGADETH!! Maybe having every single released sampled is a little too much, but I thought any charting "hit" single should be represented, as well as any songs that were nominated for a Grammy. Skeletor2112 06:28, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

Yes, well you seem to put music samples for every single of the band, even the non-notable ones. Although there is no limit on the number of fair use music sample you can add in an article, you should try to avoid using fair use media in the article as much as possible. This makes the article difficult to read as well. Michaelas10 (Talk) 17:53, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
I hear you, I will go through and remove some of the less-notable songs, as well as ones with multiple samples per album. But like I said, I do feel Grammy nominated stuff, and charting "hit" singles, at the very least, should be included. Thanks again, Skeletor2112 07:27, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
Done, I removed all of the doubled-up samples, and left only Grammy songs and hits, like "Symphony of Destruction" and "Trust", ect. Skeletor2112 07:40, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] vandalism???

hi on the slayer page i gave dave lombardo and tom arayas country of birth. why would you call this vandalism?Ukbn2 19:18, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

I'm sorry but I rather keep the "hispanic ancestry" label for them, which has a corresponding reference tag, instead of saying they "immigrated" to the US. You've also added "respectively" at the end of the sentence. Michaelas10 (Talk) 19:30, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thank you!

WikiThanks

Thank you for convincing me to come back to Wikipedia, it was the right thing to do. :) Lcarsdata 08:28, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Failed RFA and kind words thanks

Thanks for the encouragement, and the upbeat note about staying despite a recently failed rfa. Gotta say, I am not a quitter! The note was much appreciated. -- Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 21:32, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The Fish Portal

Hi, User:Melanochromis has done a great job getting the Fish Portal up an running. At this point, more sets of eyes can help make it even better. If you can offer some tips on the portal talk page about how to improve Fish up to "featured" quality, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Rfrisbietalk 13:41, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

I've added my review. Michaelas10 (Talk) 15:50, 11 December 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Hello

Thanks for the contribution to the 2006 Wikipedia CD Selection afd discussion and also for putting the article up for afd in the first place. As I said, I think the question needed discussion. If you think that notability is the right question by the way you might look at putting an AfD on some of Encyclopodia, Pywikipedia, Wapedia, Lexipedia all of which in my view are closer to the wire than 2006 Wikipedia CD Selection, and have lower notability? Keep up the good work --BozMo talk 11:36, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] You helped choose Death as this week's WP:AID winner
