[edit] Disambig fixes for Legion
You do know that you can do internal links to Wiktionary like so: [[wikt:Legion|Legion]], right? --maru (talk) contribs 00:27, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Unspecified source for Image:Hindsight2.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Hindsight2.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. Nv8200p talk 20:31, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
- Wiki's are not legitimate source and the image is unsourced at the other Wiki. -Nv8200p talk 20:32, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] WikiProject Disambiguation Talk Request
This is a form message being sent to all WikiProject Disambiguation participants. I may have found your page based on your contributions or your link repair user box on your user page. If you are not a member, please consider including your name on the project page. I recently left a proposed banner idea on the WikiProject Disambiguation talk page and I would appreciate any input you could provide. Before it can be approved or denied, I would prefer a lot of feedback from multiple participants in the project. So if you have the time please join in the discussion to help improve the WikiProject. Keep up the good work in link repair and thanks for your time. Nehrams2020 23:14, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Halloween Horror Nights Split
First, I want to thank you (and User:Dan Harkless) for helping me with this. I am not the greatest at things and don't want to screw this up. I created three subpages for us to split the article. Then, when we feel that it is complete, put them into the new articles and put in a disambiguation page. We'll have to monitor for any other changes (but now that the event is over, it will be easier) put in by other users. Thank you again for your help!--Farquaadhnchmn(Dungeon) 21:39, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

- I went through with the split and created the pages and what not. Just go to Halloween Horror Nights now and see for yourself. I did it now because there were a couple of decent edits made to HHN and I felt that it should be public domain. I'll keep my project pages for about a week and then speedy delete them. Thanks again for your help.--Farquaadhnchmn(Dungeon) 05:40, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Brady Quinn Article
Hi Phydend,
I just wanted to keep you in the loop regarding some thoughts on this article. See my comments bolded below. I think that there is a lot that we can improve.
Let me know, please.
Larry
Hi KelleyCook,
I certainly can understand your misunderstanding, but the section you deleted (regarding Brady Quinn's record) was not the work of an anonymous serial vandal.
Per the article History, User: Phydend had corrected the last of that anonymous vandalism at 1545hrs. Your edit at 1603hrs simply deleted a section that I had marked as "unreferenced" yesterday. It probably has some opinion therein, but it should not have been deleted pending someone determining that statements were factual or not.
Could you please revert it to the last version by User: Phydend or my last version User:Lmcelhiney as I'd rather not be blocked on the "3-revert rule."
Thanks for taking the time to correct this.
Take care,
Larry

- The reworked section is of course now fine, but it originally was added by this edit here [1]. This is a repeat vandal from a random Southeast Mich DSL account who pretty much only posts exaggerated claims about University of Michigan and negative things about Notre Dame. His account is routinely blocked soon afterwards. As usual, it was highly biased and the same things he always does (lowers Notre Dames law school/business rating, changes its location to South Bend, raise Michigan to #1, etc.). I just reverted all of his stuff. -- KelleyCook 15:21, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

- Thanks for the added information. I missed the originator and thought that you were suggesting that I was the serial vandal, sorry. My original point was that there probably were facts therein and we've collectively managed to attribute all of that into a worthwhile portion of the article. I'd like to help contribute to this article to allow it to move up the review scale on the WikiProject College football as indicated on the article talk page. To that point, I believe that the Vince Young article can offer us a template to improve this article. Any thoughts? Lmcelhiney 16:25, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] The Green Goblin's Last Stand

[edit] Nice cleanup on revenge of the mummy
Nice work cleaning up the Florida article and getting rid of all the California references. Had been meaning to get to doing that for a while now and never got around to it. Nice to see someone else did. Rmkf1982 | Talk 17:29, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Notable stuff on Dorms
It's funny how you're so harsh on Fisher's "non-notable" content but then reference Dillon's page. According to Wikipedia's definition of "notable," most of the stuff on there is non-notable, particularly the Princess Javelina story. DrBravo2 | Talk 21:54, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] unintended change of maliboomer technical data?
I suspect that in your change to the Maliboomer page to add the Disney infobox, you did not intend to change the "G-force" minimum from -1 to 1.
If my suspicion is correct, then you should probably put it back to -1 ...

[edit] WDW infobox
About the color... Disneyland's is blue and Disneyland Paris has a purple one, so that leaves a lot of colors. I'd put up a topic on the talk page, but I doubt anyone will reply... So feel free to change the color. Just remember to change all the WDW-related infoboxes with it... - SergioGeorgini 15:29, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
