[edit] User:Caldorwards4

Thank you for experimenting with the page User:Caldorwards4 on Wikipedia. Your test worked, and 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. A link to the edit I have reverted can be found here: link. If you believe this edit should not have been reverted, please contact me. Zpb52 16:02, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

It's bad practice to add categories to userpages without the user's consent. That can be considered vandalism. --Zpb52 16:07, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Adolphe Adam

Hi, thanks for your work on the Jewish categories. Do you have a source for Adam being Jewish? Thanks Arniep 21:00, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Luke Ford

I don't think he counts an an Australian Jew. When he lived in Australia, he wasn't Jewish. Since he became Jewish, he has lived in America pretty consistently. AnonEMouse (squeak) 17:30, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your "Your ignorance" post

Any message that starts out with this kind of header doesn't get read. Try again without the personal attack. CovenantD 18:20, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Powerpuff Girls

I agree with his reasoning - in the show, they are villains, albeit ineffective ones, by nature of being the girls adversaries. Your arguement that they're not that bad and shouldn't be called villains is what's called a point of view. Whatever edits Ace has done to other pages doesn't effect that. And labeling an edit conflict as vandalism, without trying to work it out first, directly impacts your credibility. So, I've considered, I've reconsidered, and I stand by my decision. CovenantD 18:30, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Elvis page

I invite you back to the Elvis Presley article page. It is currently undergoing change in my attempt to make it a featured article by August, the anniversary of his death. Your input would be helpful. Thanks. --Northmeister 05:30, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cfd: Category:Jewish groups

Hi Marcus: Please see Wikipedia:Categories for deletion/Log/2006 June 20#Category:Jewish groups. Thank you, IZAK 06:51, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Please stay civil

Wikipedia encourage civility. If you do not wish your material to be edited, and possiblyreverted, do not submit it. In a page about a specific episode, its DVD release date is as notable as the release date of a movie or music CD. Wikipedia does not encourage removal of material without a good reason, you have not provided such a reason. Circeus 21:34, 8 July 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Unspecified source for Image:Eddie murphy.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Eddie murphy.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may 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. Abu Badali 15:32, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ace Class Shadow

Well, Ace has been blocked for incivility and other related incidents, so needless to say he has finally been penalized for his actions, and it seems to have cooled down. I've been watching his talk page, and if things heat up again, we can file an RfC. Ian Manka Talk to me! 20:39, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

Ahem. For the record, person, I was blocked once by an administrator whose own activity and methods have been questioned. Furthermore, my history is irrelevant to this matter. Marcus2 shows clear negative bias against The Powerpuff Girls and recently harassed me for calling him on it months ago. Source or no source, Marcus2 unsuccessfully attempted to have the image deleted. Now he's trying to replace it with one of unnecessarily poor quality. ACS (Wikipedian); Talk to the Ace. See what I've edited. 20:55, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: User:Ruggles

Hello, Marcus. As someone who reverted Ruggles' edits and is more familiar with the article, could you instead consider leaving him a note explaining policies/guidelines like Wikipedia:Verifiability and Wikipedia:Citing sources? As far as I can see, User talk:Ruggles doesn't yet exist, and it might help him contribute more constructively. Thanks, Sango123 20:48, 16 August 2006 (UTC)


[edit] RE: User Ruggles

Yeah,Im gonna do that now. I tried to tell him he had no proof, but he didn't listen. If he does revert that page again, I'll make sure to re-inforce the message. Order66 17:27, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] TVRage

Hey Marcus. I'm Andrew from TVRage.com. I hope the FOP petition works. --andrew 07:13, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

I'm glad you figured out that I am the same person you know at TVRage. Marcus 13:20, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Recreating my userpage

I'd like it to stay deleted. So please don't recreate it. Sorry for the misunderstanding. 1ne 20:33, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

I'm sorry. 1. I just wanted someone to take you seriously, and 2. I wanted people to know you're a sysop. I did that to another admin's page for the same reasons. Marcus 20:38, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The Adelaide, Kolb, etc. Mozart concertos

are now regarded are at best others' reworking of slight Mozart fragments into full concertos of their own but most likely fully spurious. I'm surprised Gilder was still talking about it in 1985, but then, people still talk about "double expositions" in classical concertos- very much the exception, not the rule, an attempt to describe what's something much more complicated and descended from the ritornello baroque aria/concerto form, to digress that little bit- now in 2006... so why not, I guess in 1985 Gilder talks about the Adelaide and others. It's unlikely, though- I'll see if one of Zaslaw's books or something else recent talks about the reasons. (Besides the stylistic- that's not quite definitive, when he could go from the 8th concerto to the 9th, from the 9th to the piano sonatas of about the same time, then his "style" was shifting for various reasons...)

[edit] Film articles

Hi. Please stop reverting edits of pages that contain film posters (like you did to The Powerpuff Girls Movie), because film posters belong in the template and are extremely important. Video or DVD covers should NOT belong in the template, unless the film is direct-to-video. --PJ Pete

[edit] c# minor

Hey mate, I was just wondering what you meant by this edit, can you clarify a bit, please? Thank you! —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  20:16, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

Haydn wrote a piano sonata in C sharp minor, I believe. Marcus2 21:22, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image tagging for Image:Earl_jenkinson.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Earl_jenkinson.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.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

[edit] List of Villains

The article List of villains which you were instrumental in start in '04 was marked for a prod. I removed the tag, saying "article needs dividing, not diluting". If it goes to AfD in the present state, it will almost certainly be deleted. That gives you a day or two to fix it up. Best of luck DGG 01:50, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Domingo.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Domingo.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. Chowbok ☠ 02:08, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Birthyear changing

In response to birth year changing, no, it is not possible for a person to legally change their birth year as they want (emphasise on "legally"). They can argue that is was incorrectly recorded, but otherwise it is set in stone like any other biographical fact. As for Nancy Reagan, I believe it was in her autobiography that she lied about it, putting 1923, but biographers found public and school records and a birth certificate that said otherwise.--Wendox34 06:59, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

I'm not sure how People Finders collects its information, according to the main page it comes from operator licenses and voter registrations. I've heard of people with different dates on a license and voter registration (e.g. Ann Coulter). I doubt it is legal to knowingly provide a false date of birth on such. but it appears that such laws are rarely enforced. --Wendox34 07:13, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Mazepa

Settign aside anon's violation (I almost blocked him for 3RR and incivility), he has a point: some sources attrbute the same pictuere to Mazepa, other to Jan Kazimierz Sapieha. We need to properly study this and attribute the picture properly (See one of the pictures at Cecilia Renata of Austria for similar case).-- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk  20:01, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fairly Odd Parents Movie

The Fairly Odd Parents movie looks like it doesn't merit its own article: it was a movie who had a script written, and then production was stopped on the movie. There's no IMdb listing for the movie -- only the TV show. That's what I could gather. I'd talk to the admin who did this, not me. I don't know how I'm involved. If you have any questions, please contact me at my talk page. Ian Manka 03:46, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

According to this IMDb message board thread, the movie will not be made. I'm afraid that this isn't notable enough to merit an article. If you have further questions, once again, I'd ask Tregoweth about his decision, but my guess is that this is not notable whatsoever. If you have any questions, please contact me at my talk page. Ian Manka 01:17, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair Use Images on Wikipedia

Hi. You are not allowed to use fair use images in your userspace. Please read the fair use policy for the restrictions on using fair use images in Wikipedia. Thank you. --MECU≈talk 19:09, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

I wasn't trying to be harsh. Just trying to let you know why your sub userpage was deleted and why I removed the image from it. I'm sorry it came out that way. Thank you for understanding. --MECU≈talk 19:16, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:PPG Relish Rampage PS.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:PPG Relish Rampage PS.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.

[edit] Category:Cartoon Characters

Please don't use the category Category:Cartoon Characters; the category is badly named, and there are more specific categories that are better for categorizing. —tregoweth (talk) 15:41, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Nancy Reagan birthdate

Hi. I read your comment on Nancy Reagan's talk page. I happen to know a lot about Mrs. Reagan, so I thought I may be able to help you out. Nancy Reagan herself states in her memoirs that she does not know her birthyear. She says it is 1923. All news media organizations, and public places like that list her birthyear as 1921, because of their "calculations". To tell you the truth, I have no idea with is right, only nancy Reagan's mother does! I would keep it as 1921 on the Wikipedia page, though. if you have any questions, just get back to me. thanks, Happyme22 .

[edit] Nickelodeon Assessment

Hi.

I've noticed you have been assessing some Nickelodeon articles (Catscratch, for example). When you assessed Catscratch and others as Mid-Importance, that was a little too low. I have some SpongeBob SquarePants episodes with that rating.

The importance is for how important it is related to the WIKIPROJECT, not to everyone, so keep it a little higher. I will change it back to Top-Importance, because Catscratch is very important when it comes to the Nickelodeon TV channel.

Thanks. — JuWiki (Talk <> Resources) 21:17, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Age category

Hello! If you are receiving this message, that means that your user page is in a specific year category. Per a recent user-category per deletion, all specific year categories are to be deleted. If you wish to continue using year categories, you have two options:

If you wish, you may do both. Hopefully, this change in categorization will be quick and painless. Happy editing! --An automated message from MessedRobot 13:22, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] "last aired" date

Please see [1], and see if you disagree with my reasons for using "ongoing". Thanks, Notinasnaid 21:04, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Powerpuff

Don't remove sourced information from the page. I don't even know what you're going on about with that removal. The "multitude" of users on that page are certainly suspicious but what you are complaining about is entirely and reliably sourced. SchmuckyTheCat 22:51, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
