[edit] regarding highlander quickenings

i am not sure i understand the term of 'list of quickening' you want to make. if you still want to make, please do so. in the mean time, i think it's better to keep it as it is. you should click Quickening to see whether there's a list or not. do you mean the terms like dark quickening, double quickening or....for example duncan killed so and so in every episode? i think the list is too long, it would be better to put the 'list' of immortals/duncan that got quickening in the episode page. whadaya' think?

[edit] Oz vote

Thanks for the heads-up, but I can't change my vote. The administrator didn't make a mistake in reasoning; he interpreted the votes correctly. I disagree with the ruling, but it's not because of a failure on the admin's part. I will make a comment to this regard, though.--Mike Selinker 20:58, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Duplication in Oz (TV series) related articles

This is in response to the message you left on my talk page. First and foremost, please assume good faith when you interact with other editors. This would include not characterizing other editor's work as vandalism in your edit summaries when it is not. It would be best it you read WP:VAND for an explanation of what vandalism is, and what vandalism is not. With regard to the Oz (TV series) articles, when I first came across them during vandal patrolling, I found serious duplication of information among these articles. Some of the articles did not even link to each other. I made an attempt to clean up the issues that I could and redirected articles that seemed duplicative. Indeed, you yourself seemed to indicate doubt about the way the articles had been created, see: [1]. If you don't like the way things came out feel free to fix them. But try to keep the articles consise. Also keep in mind that there is probably not a need for a separate article for every gang and character. If you feel it is justified to keep a large number of articles, you should create an info box that would appear in each article and show how they interrelate. I will revisit these articles in a week or so. If the duplicate information reappears I will propose mergers so that the wider community can discuss how best to proceed. Regards, Accurizer 12:32, 10 June 2006 (UTC)

I am sorry. I overreacted.

However, although there are probably certain duplication (As the articles were derived from the main series' page) most of the information in these pages is original and do not appear in the main article. Besides, there is much more to be written regarding these gangs that was yet to be written, so I'd like it if you'd wait a while before suggesting it to be merged into the main article. (Which is already too full)

I do, however intend to create relevant infoboxes when I'll get the time, as I believe they are crucial in puutting all of this information into order. OzOz

Apology accepted. I have no problem giving you as much time as you like. How about you drop me a note when you are finished, and I'll take a look at that time. Happy editing! Regards, Accurizer 12:53, 10 June 2006 (UTC)

Sure thing. Thanks! :) OzOz

[edit] Episode Guide

I once worked on an Oz Episode Guide but was removed because others added plot summaries that were copied from other sources. If you'd like to try and get one let me know and I'll try to get some pictures for the guide.--CyberGhostface 02:55, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

I'd love to work on one, but unfortunately, I am afraid I won't be able to do that 'till the end of the exams period. When I will be able to work on it, I'll let you know. :) (If you'll start working on it by yourself, please tell me. ok? :)) OzOz 06:55, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

I only have Oz season 3, but I'll write those episode guides from scratch Sexyactionnick 00:43, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

Good to hear! OzOz 06:18, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Tagging images without source

Hi there, thanks for tagging images like Image:Miami skyline from Biscayne Bay.jpg as lacking a source. Might I ask that you use {{subst:nsd}} instead of {{no source}} in future, as this will automatically categorize the image by date too? You can also use {{subst:nld}} to tag images without a license or copyright information, and {{subst:nrd}} to tag images that are marked fair use but do not have an explanation of how the image complies with the fair use policy. Thanks again! Stifle (talk) 12:36, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

Sure thing. Ok. :) OzOz

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.

Come on! It had random people and Jim/Joe/Jill/Jane Doe in the other fields. Why would making the show end before it begun be any problem? OzOz 10:07, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

Because where trying to present an information template people can understand without being confused; Wikipeda is not a joke book. thanks/MatthewFenton (talk • contribs) 10:18, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
