[edit] ROENTGEN STORIES

Regarding:

Jumping the gun, aren't we? If you'll check the history of the ROENTGEN STORIES page before posting, you might notice that I only just created it. Currently, I'm in the process of adding content, unless you expect a gorgeous, content-filled page to suddenly pop out of nowhere, fully created.

Please don't get offended if your article gets prodded. The prod tag was designed so that it cannot be deleted until 5 days after it's been tagged, and the prod be overturned by any editor. The reason I put it there is to make sure the page is not orphaned and empty, it's hard for pages to get attention a period after they are created. The vast majority of new articles do have at least a sentence of encylopedic text, so yes, I think it's natural to expect some text.

You can use the {{underconstruction}} tag to indicate you're going to finish it, since it's hard to tell if you intend to finish creating the article. Sorry if I caused any offense. hateless 07:49, 11 June 2006 (UTC)

I wouldn't be offended if it was prodded, say a day, a week, or even half an hour after it was created. Then I might tend to agree with you. However, I am a little annoyed that you didn't bother to check the time of creation before tagging the article. That, and the fact that the article was created by a registered wikipedian, might have made you think twice about questioning the author's intent before you took action.

Thanks for explaining yourself, but it'd be nice if you lost the elitist attitude and learned to respect your peers, or at least their work. It'd be another thing if you were admin, but you're a fellow common editor and the obvious oversight shows a disregard for the works of others that really doesn't work on a cooperative effort like Wikipedia. That is what I take offense to.

I don't think I was doing anything wrong at all. Frankly, all you had on that page when the prod tag went on was a picture and a caption, an all-caps article title that does not conform to Manual of Style, and that I could have been tagged for speedy delete under CSD A1 if I was the elitist you claim I was. The fact is that I don't know if you were planning on updating the article at all, since there was no text that could be considered a part of an article, and as I said, the vast majority of new pages have at least one sentence of encyclopedic text (from past article I've reviewed, I don't consider captions to be a part of article text). What I created was a safety net that ensured the article was going to be completed or deleted if it was neglected. If you feel offended by that, then sorry if thought that you created an improper article. But I don't agree I'm being eltist at all. hateless 08:37, 11 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hyde - 'Facts' section

Just nitpicking on one regarding his 'favourite brand of cigarettes'. According to several fansites, his favourite brand is "Cherokee".

Please feel free to change it. I don't presume ownership over the article. But thank you for the heads up; I have no idea what the man smokes...I don't particularly approve of it--what if he got cancer, not to mention the damage it does to his voice.
