From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Dude, try to end up with only one article on your Emmerdale characters, please. I've redirected both Bernice Blackstock and Bernice Blackstock (Emmerdale character) since this is the caption of the infobox you put on the left side of at least two of those pages. Enjoy wikipediaing. Well, what am I saying. You are already. (I could never cope with Emmerdale, btw. THere you go. Standard form welcome follows. --Tagishsimon (talk)

[edit] Kayleigh Crow

Please stop making unneccessary redirects. The name of the Emmerdale characters are Martin and Kayleigh Crow, not Crowe or Gibbs. Trampikey (talk to me)(contribs) 18:17, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Edit summaries

I have noted that you often edit without an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This is considered an important guideline in Wikipedia. Even a short summary is better than no summary. An edit summary is even more important if you delete any text; otherwise, people may think you're being sneaky. Also, mentioning one change but not another one can be misleading to someone who finds the other one more important; add "and misc." to cover the other change(s). Thanks! Trampikey (talk to me)(contribs) 18:22, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Lily

Please do not redirect Lily (Emmerdale character) again. The reason I moved the page in the first place was because her name will not be Lily Birch, as Edna took her husband's name when she got married, therefore Edna's name is Birch, but her sister's won't be. Trampikey (talk to me)(contribs) 13:17, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Please remember

Please take a look at Wikipedia:Manual of Style (headings)#Capitalizations, and stop changing the headings on List of Emmerdale characters. Trampikey (talk to me)(contribs) 21:57, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Edna Burch.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Edna Burch.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

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 any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

[edit] Lily (Emmerdale)

I noted you directed Lily Lovett to Lily Butterfield. Although i am not yet dismissing that move, but i didn't notice you quote sources at to where you found that information (and reliable sources would be desirable). Information on the character currently is thin on the ground, but if you could quote your source, and for future changes similar too, it would be useful. Bungle44 18:54, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] String of new articles

Hi. I see that you have created many new articles for minor characters of a TV show. As a general rule, we try to avoid that and per WP:FICT these are generally coallesced into a list-type article. Pascal.Tesson 15:24, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Emmerdale Characters

Hi, Jameshdl, I notice you've been making lots of entries for Emmerdale characters recently, and I'm just wondering whether you plan to expand them any furthur than they are at the moment. The problem I can see is that they are all very short and stubby, i.e just having family relations and their names. Thus, I would politely suggest that it might be better to just expand the list of characters unless you have some actual content to add to the articles, or if you do plan to write more detailed character profiles to do these before posting any more. Thank you. Bob talk 15:40, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

Perhaps you could try adding Template:Emmerdale Character to the articles to give them more information... Trampikey (talk to me)(contribs) 16:18, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
No, more content makes them more acceptable. Making millions of stubs and leaving them is unacceptable; making a few and expanding them to create decent articles is acceptable. And the template doesn't make it any more acceptable, it just makes the article more identifiable as an Emmerdale article... I'd advise you to stop creating these articles, however, as they really don't have any information in that isn't already in the cast list. Trampikey (talk to me)(contribs) 17:18, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Project Stub Sort

Hello,

Thank you for your stub submission. You may wish to note that it is preferable to use a stub template from Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Stub types instead of using simply {{stub}}, if you can.

Thanks! -Ohms law 18:44, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Article in need of cleanup - please assist if you can

[edit] Lucy Webb previously deleted by AfD process and will be speedily deleted

A tag has been placed on Lucy Webb, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article is a repost of either already posted material, or of material that was previously deleted under Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion. If you can indicate how Lucy Webb is different from all other articles, or if you can indicate why this article should not be deleted, I advise you to place the template {{hangon}}, and also put a note on Talk:Lucy Webb saying why this article should stay. An admin should check for such edits before deleting the article. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 4 under General criteria. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. We welcome your help in trying to improve Wikipedia, and we ask you to follow these instructions. —C.Fred (talk) 18:14, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Emmerdale pictures

Trying to avoid getting into a revert war, but I disagree with the current image layout on the Emmerdale article, and have done for some time. If the layout I suggested doesn't suit your resolution for whatever reason, that's fine, but when you compare the article to other professional articles on wikipedia (or even to Coronation Street), the images on there are properly organised, and not just cramped together in a space on the right hand side. I might try a slightly different layout soon, but half the text for me is hidden, so it really isn't an option to keep it like that. Bungle44 14:15, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Images: TV screenshots

Please only use the TV-screenshot tag for genuine screenshots. A screenshot is one frame from the 25 per second that makes up the moving image. It is not any image related to TV. Many of the images you have uploaded and mistagged as TV-screenshot are promotional images. I have spent a good amount of time tonight revising the images you uploaded in August and tagging most for deletion. The notice "Do not copy images from other websites without permission. They will be deleted." on the image upload page is not there for fun! We welcome your efforts to improve Wikipedia, but uploading such images not only wastes the time of admins, but also makes us vulnerable to legal action.

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Plane Crash.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Plane Crash.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

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 any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. ~ BigrTex 17:24, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

Five more images in the same situation that have also been tagged:

  • Image:Charles Vaughan.png
  • Image:Rosemary King.jpg
  • Image:Jimmy, Matthew and Carl kill Tom.jpg
  • Image:Daz Hopwood.jpg
  • Image:Andy Sugden.jpg

~ BigrTex 18:23, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

I noticed that you changed the summary information for Image:Jimmy, Matthew and Carl kill Tom.jpg today and removed the orphaned fair use tag. The issue with that image is not the fair use rationale, but that the image doesn't have a record of being used in any articles. Since the image is under copyright, we aren't allowed to host it if it isn't being used. ~ BigrTex 15:20, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Please read this:

Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Emmerdale#Goals for the project! before making any more changes to Emmerdale related articles. I think points 1 and 4 apply mosty to your contributions. -Trampikey(talk)(contribs) 23:26, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] RE: Emmerdale

Three articles is too much when they can be combined. I used the equivalent EastEnders article as a template, so removed the exact dates. Feel free to add them back, but I think it looks a bit clumsy like that. -Trampikey(talk)(contribs) 15:28, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

Please don't use the really bad tables that were on the previous pages. They look awful. Feel free to put the dates, just don't put them in those godawful tables, especially with hyphens at the end of the columns! -Trampikey(talk)(contribs) 17:19, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Maybe you just don't see what I see?

Do you truely believe every picture on the article for Emmerdale's main storylines are better suited on the right? When I see it, it all seems congested when they are like how you ordered them, hence, the title for one of them has a massive gap before the text starts (which is due to the pictures). Taking the Coronation Street article for example, many pictures are on both the left and right sides to keep the article organised. It can't stay like it is in it's current state.. Bungle44 14:22, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Non-notable Emmerdale child actors

A tag has been placed on Lucy Webb, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article is a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as articles for deletion. If you can indicate how Lucy Webb is different from the previously posted material, or if you can indicate why this article should not be deleted, I advise you to place the template {{hangon}} underneath the other template on the article, and also put a note on Talk:Lucy Webb saying why this article should stay. An admin should check for such edits before deleting the article. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 4 under General criteria. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. We welcome your help in trying to improve Wikipedia, and we ask you to follow these instructions. —C.Fred (talk) 00:55, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. Unfortunately, an article you recently created, Lucy Webb, doesn't conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for new articles so it will shortly be removed, if it hasn't been already. Please use the sandbox for any tests you may want to do and please read our introduction page to learn more about contributing. Thank you. —C.Fred (talk) 00:58, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Emmerdale minor characters

I have noticed your disagreement with a couple of merger proposals on some of the soap's characters. I think the idea of the consolidated article was to list characters that appear on a recrurring basis too, not just those who aren't as important as the rest. I agree with you that several characters aren't really classified as "minor", but certainly would be classed as "recurring", and hence for that also don't support their claims for own articles.

Maybe a separate, but similar article by the lines of List of recurring Emmerdale characters might be a potential consideration? Bungle44 14:11, 3 March 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Emmerdale - Who Killed Tom King?

Hi, and thanks for your suport in making the new pageon Who Killed Tom King. I reccomended to user:Jennyplus (one of the main cointributer)that it be split into another section, to which she refused, i went ahead and done it, only to be reverted.

[edit] AfD nomination of Rachel Ambler

An editor has nominated Rachel Ambler, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not"). Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Rachel Ambler and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it.
