[edit] Welcome!

Hi, Gabrielkat, Welcome to Wikipedia!

I hope you like this place — I sure do — and want to stay. Before getting too in-depth, you may want to read about the Five pillars of Wikipedia and simplified ruleset. If you need help on how to title new articles check out the naming conventions, and for help on formatting the pages visit the manual of style. If you need help look at Wikipedia:Help and the FAQ , plus if you can't find your answer there, check the Village Pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the Reference Desk (for general questions)! There's still more help at the Tutorial and Policy Library. Plus, don't forget to visit the Community Portal. And if you have any more questions after that, feel free to post them on my user talk page or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and someone will be by to help you shortly.


[edit] Additional tips

Here's some extra tips to help you get around in the 'pedia!

  • If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills the Sandbox is for you.
  • You can sign your name using three tildes (~). If you use four, you can add a datestamp too. Five will get you the datestamp only.
  • You may want to add yourself to the new user log.
  • If you ever think a page or image should be deleted, please list it at the votes for deletion page. There is also a votes for undeletion page if you want to retrieve something that you think should not have been deleted.
  • If you're still entirely confused, or would like to get a better grasp of your wikipedia skills, and you have an IRC client (or don't mind getting one), check out the Bootcamp. It's not what it sounds like, but it is fun and can help you with your editing skills.
  • If you're bored and want to find something to do, try the Random page button in the sidebar, or check out the Open Task message in the Community Portal.

Happy Wiki-ing.

[edit] Talk:Walt Disney Home Entertainment/Archive 1

Talk:Walt Disney Home Entertainment/Archive 1 has been archived, and should not be edited. If you have any comments about the Walt Disney Home Entertainment article, please add them to the current talk page, Talk:Walt Disney Home Entertainment. Thanks! tregoweth 02:44, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Small note about formatting

For easier readability, putting text you want to emphasize in bold or italics is usually better than ALL CAPS. (And ALL CAPS SEEMS LIKE SHOUTING, etc. :) ). tregoweth 15:30, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Block message

Hi, thanks for your contributions and warnings to vandals, but please do not put block messages on the talk pages of vandals who are not yet blocked; it will mislead admins and other users into believing the vandal is already blocked and therefore not block the vandal properly. --Nlu (talk) 04:49, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Talk:Walt Disney Home Entertainment

Please don't remove comments from talk pages, unless you're archiving them (in which case you should note that in the edit summary and provide a link to the archive). Thanks! Powers 02:26, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Paramount logo response

In response to your inquiry on the logo in Star Trek: Generations as copied from my talk page:

Incredibly enough, I don't actually own the Generations DVD. But you're absoulotely right about the Paramount Communications name. I had completely forgotten about it at the time I uploaded these images. If I remember correctly, Viacom bought Paramount in 1993 and changed the logo shortly afterwards. As Generations came out in 1994, It most likely had the Viacom logo (I have a friend who owns the DVD, so I will double-check this). I think that we should have a picture of the logo with the Paramount Communications byline, though. Thanks for bringing this to my attention. Green451 17:24, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Slats screenshot (MGM)

Hi there; just to let you know that Pawlis has finally added a screenshot of Slats to the Leo the Lion (MGM) article. It would be appreciated if you could look at the article whenever you have the chance. Thanks! LBM 00:26, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Universal Logo

I haven't seen any Universal sound feature with a logo from 1929-1930... The new logo seems to have been introduced in 1932 or, at the earliest, in 1931... Have you seen a Universal sound film from 1929 or 1930 with a logo before the main title? If so, which one? AllTalking 15:36, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Full House: The Complete Fifth Season

Well then cite your source! I wouldn't have a problem believing you, all you have to do is [http://www.sitcomsonline.com/invasionthecompleteseriesdvdreview.html] at the end of the date. It would look like this:

No need to get uptight about it. Doodoobutter 01:09, 27 August 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Polka-Dot Puss

As per your request, I created a page for Polka-Dot Puss - hope it is to your liking! MartinP1983 00:09, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Signatures

Please don't edit other people's signatures, including mine. —tregoweth (talk) 15:41, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

  • Ahem: Why are you continuing to edit my signatures? —tregoweth (talk) 15:40, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
    • Because I don't want to see your signature in italics! Gabrielkat 17:27, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
      • Editing other people's talk page comments (including signatures) is considered unacceptable behavior under official Wikipedia policy. If you have a specific problem with my signature, please tell me what it is. —tregoweth (talk) 11:37, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

The problem is, there is a dash to the left of your name, and your name is in italics. I'd like to see the dash removed, and your name not in italics next time you post a comment on a talk page. Gabrielkat 15:04, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

  • That doesn't explain the problem; why shouldn't I have a dash and an italicized username? If it's causing problems for you (messing up page formatting for you, crashing your browser, etc.), I'll be happy to consider changing it. —tregoweth (talk) 15:48, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
    • Yes, that signature is causing problems for me. Gabrielkat 17:44, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
    • I told you that signature is causing problems for me... but you still didn't change it! Gabrielkat 14:59, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
      • Sorry, I didn't see your comment here; I assumed you would reply on my talk page. Anyway, what sort of problems? —tregoweth (talk) 23:19, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

The only problem that I could spot (right now) is that your signature is not spaced enough. If I find any more problems, I'll let you know. Gabrielkat 00:18, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

    • I've tweaked my signature, but I would like to remind you that you generally shouldn't edit other people's comments or signatures. Suppose someone changed your signature, as I did above, without explaining why. Wouldn't you be annoyed? —tregoweth (talk) 02:23, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

Yes, I would. Gabrielkat 14:06, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

  • I've just spotted another problem... the font for "talk" is not in the same font (Arial) as your username!

Again, if I find any more problems, I'll let you know. Gabrielkat 01:00, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

    • Actually, that's on purpose; my username should show up in whatever your default font is, and "(talk)" in whatever your default fixed-width font is. —tregoweth (talk) 01:27, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
    • And I just noticed that you still edited my signature. If it's actually causing you a problem, tell me what the problem is, and I'll fix it. If you just don't like how it looks... we'll just have to agree to disagree. —tregoweth (talk) 01:29, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
      • The problem is the font for "talk". It's supposed to be in the same font as your username. Your signature would look something like this if your username and "talk" were in the same font:

tregoweth (talk)

Once again, I'll let you know if I find any more problems. Gabrielkat 19:06, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

        • "It's supposed to be in the same font as your username." Um, says who? Powers T 01:51, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Question

Hey Gabrielkat, what is your e-mail address? Because I tried sending you a pic of my video collection, but you seem to haven't got it. Can you put down your address? So I can scan my collection and show it to you? Imax80 21:17, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

  • My e-mail address is: gabriel_katikos@yahoo.com. And yes, I got the pic of your video collection... Gabrielkat 00:18, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
    • Do you like it? --Imax80 18:51, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
      • Yes, I like it! Now if only you could give me pics of the dark red FBI warnings and the video dealer announcement, as well as the blue FBI warnings (both "FBI" and "Licensed for..."), the "Now on Walt Disney Home Video..." bumper from "Return to Witch Mountain", and the "Coming Only to Theatres" bumper from "The Great Mouse Detective"... Gabrielkat 19:06, 21 October 2006 (UTC)


        • I may post them next year when I get a video capture unit forX-mas and new VHS player. ==Imax80 16:58, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
          • I am perfectly sure I am getting those devices. Then I will post them on Youtube so you can actually watch them, not look at a still shot of them. That'll better, so you want the FBI screens, and the WDHV bumper on my Witch Mountain cassette? --Imax80 03:53, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

Yes, that's what I want. But it would also be good if you could send those to me via IM! (That is, when you get the video capture unit and new VHS player...) Gabrielkat 12:28, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

  • How about this, I'll post them on Youtube, all in a big presentation. --Imax80 23:58, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
  • No, it would be better if you would send them to me via IM... Gabrielkat 03:53, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Things to Add

There's a pic of 1986 Robin Hood spine in that pic I sent you. I'll get the other stuff as soon as X-mas is over. --Imax80 22:52, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

  • Since Christmas is over... aren't you going to give me those dark red FBI screens and video dealer announcement, as well as the other stuff that I wanted? Gabrielkat 20:33, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Disney Sing Along Songs

Showing pictures of the video box covers is one thing, but how does showing the actual cassettes add to the article?

Also, you kind of reverted a large amount of cleanup I was working on... —tregoweth (talk) 22:48, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] R-rated movies

Gabrielkat, I have more R-rated movies than you. Better start catching up, because I just received a copy of "The Terminator" in the mail.
