[edit] one more for your December archive/Bee Gees

As the bestower of my one and only barnstar (now enshrined on my user page as well as my talk), I thought I should tell you that I am going to kill someone. [WIKI COPS: THAT WAS A JOKE]. I thought my removal of "Origin" from the infobox was rather inspired, actually, but now there's an idiot making clever comments about a missing song. DON'T THESE PEOPLE HAVE ANYTHING TO DO??? Ah, but you should see what's going on at Barack Obama - a man who may become President of the United States sometime, but not if these people are any indication of the mentality of the rest of America. I think I should go to sleep now. So, how are you? Tvoz 04:48, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

Hey, glad I made your day this time! You're probably right about More than a Woman, although I think in the States it may have been a single - or at least it did get a lot of AM airplay which would be odd for an album cut in those days. Too tired now to look it up. Thanks for jumping in there. The Manx-England folks reared their heads again, but I think I beat them off. For the moment. (May have been on one or another of the Gibb pages - I don't recall now.) Anyway, Ross from Brisbane - thanks for the support, again Tvoz 09:07, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
Oh yeah, I remember part - someone insisted on removing the "Manx people" category. Truth is, I could not care less about that so I'm not even responding. I did change wording in the individual Gibb pages to match the Bee Gees on this all-important point. AAAAHHHH Tvoz 09:09, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:CelineDionRiverDeepMountainHigh.ogg)

Thanks for uploading Image:CelineDionRiverDeepMountainHigh.ogg. 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. BigDT 05:39, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

FYI, if, in fact, this sound clip is being used and just doesn't show up on "what links here" or file links for whatever reason, you can add {{Not orphan}} to the image page to indicate that it is in use and should not be deleted. Thanks. BigDT 05:41, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] happy holidays

I will always believe that Christmas-New Year's is celebrated in the WINTER, but I hope you enjoy yours! Tvoz 08:11, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

I'm in New York, where it does not look like it's going to snow today - in fact it was 60 degrees (Fahrenheit!) a couple of days ago, so we're not there yet. But soon enough I'll be hoping for Spring, and you'll be celebrating Fall. It's weird. My husband and I have an old friend from England who has lived in New Zealand for many years- New Zealand, which to American brains is right around the corner from Australia, even though I know that's not exactly right - and he always regales us with stories about celebrating Christmas on the beach which he doesn't mind, but he does draw the line at Santa Claus (St. Nick?) in Bermuda shorts and a t-shirt! Have a good one! Tvoz 17:46, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
Ha - you saw Col Joye - I am laughing! Tell me the truth - I will not be offended, trust me - is the article accurate and reasonably comprehensive (for a stub, that is)? Seems pretty sketchy to me. I have to tell you - I never heard of him before but when I was editing Bee Gees and looking at other Australian artists, I kept seeing this red name "Col Joye" and wondered why whoever or whatever it was didn't have a Wiki page since he was popping up all over the place. So I googled him and thought what the hell, I'll put up a page for him. Except that I knew exactly nothing about him. I had a great time doing this - but I have no way of judging if it's a reasonable start because I have no gut instinct about it like I do, say, about John Lennon. I figured other people would come in and make more of a page out of it, but amazingly there have been no changes other than some wikilink type stuff. So.... I hope I've done the old boy a decent start. This is what I love about Wikipedia... among lots of things I don't love at all, like the cabal of teenagers who think they know everything and all they can really do is cite rules and squeeze the creativity and joy out of everything they touch. (Hmm, do I sound bitter??) But meeting folks like you from across the planet, with senses of humor, and no chip on your shoulder, makes it worthwhile. Happy new year! Tvoz | talk 23:56, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
What is it with the South Pacific and rock musicians falling out of trees??? Keith Richards I blamed on, well, being Keith Richards .... but old Col too? hahahahah Tvoz | talk 19:06, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

I wish you and your loved ones all the happiness in the world this coming year.


[edit] Cheetah Girls

It was either in M Magzine or Bop Magazine. I can't remember which one. It was also in Blast Magazine but these are al small teen magazines and they don't have anything online about it. It's in Blast! Magazine for sure, because I have it, but I have no way to upload it onto the computer. It was also annoced by Adrienne Bailon in the October issue of Disney Adventures. Jtervin 08:46, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

  • Ok, I'll send it to you as soon as possible. Jtervin 08:53, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
    • The source information is as follows:

Title: Blast Presents: Catching up with the cast of High School Musical & other teen TV stars

There you go! Jtervin 00:38, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Of Human Bondage image

Hi, so why did you send me that message in the first place if you were going to replace the screenshot with a PD image? Best wishes, <KF> 20:42, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Hello

Why, thank you sir, for those kind words! It's good to be back (ish) and I really like what you've done with the place. I kinda dropped out of view when becoming involved with the organization of Quakecon (the event, not the article) some time ago, but intend to resume some wikitasks here and there. My main Wiki pipe dream would be the FA-isation of the Sarah McLachlan article, which is in real need of some major overhaul and restructuring (the article, not the artist). We'll see. In any case, feel free to contact me if you need some help with one of your editing endeavours! Cheers, --Plek 18:38, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

Well, I'm sure it must take some courage to share the stage with Björn Again... Let's file my unfortunate edit under Unintended consequences. :-) --Plek 20:48, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Kylie Minogue category cleanup

(cross-posted to User talk:Underneath-it-All)

Greetings! I'm trying to de-spamify the long list of category tags in the Kylie Minogue article. I've created a section on the talk page to discuss things: Talk:Kylie Minogue#Category cleanup. I'd appreciate your views on this monumental task. Thanks! --Plek 16:03, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Dorothy Malone

Hello! I see you added an infobox to this article. I would appreciate your explaining why you feel an infobox that simply reiterates facts already in the article is necessary. I realize they unfortunmately have become commonplace, but personally I don't understand their purpose. If Wikipedia is to be considered an encyclopedia, how does an infobox fit in with that concept? Thanks for your input! SFTVLGUY2 16:27, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Infoboxes

Had I been active in Wikipedia at the time the infoboxes were nominated for deletion, I definitely would have voted against them. Are you familiar with USA Today? It's a newspaper designed for those on the run, people too busy to read in-depth coverage of news events. It's filled with blurbs and colorful charts and graphics designed for those who want to know everything at a mere glance. That is exactly how I view the infobox. I agree with everything you said re: consistency . . . it's just too bad the infobox is considered an acceptable part of Wiki format.

I'm a big contributor of articles about plays and musicals. I can't begin to tell you how much those differ in style. Slowly but surely I'm trying to re-write them to conform to the way I feel they should be written. So far, nobody has objected!

Thanks for your detailed and intelligent response. I appreciate your taking the time to write. SFTVLGUY2 17:13, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Confessions Tour....

Hey there. Long time no chat. Could u please pop by and add ur two cents into the 'Confessions Tour' controversy? Thanks! PatrickJ83 00:23, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

Thank you treasure. In addition I re-wrote it in a similar fashion to Kylie article mention on her tour. PatrickJ83 02:36, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Danni Minogue samples

Sir! I've posted a message at User talk:Underneath-it-All#Dannii Minogue samples about my work-in-progress to add some song samples to the Dannii Minogue article. As you've gone through all that on its "sister article" (geddit? heheheh... ahem), maybe you could add your two cents to some of my comments there. If it isn't too much trouble, of course. Cheers! --Plek 22:15, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the comments! I have just finished uploading and documenting the bunch, and the result can be admired/mocked here: Talk:Dannii Minogue#Sample jukebox. I think I'll leave it to the capable hands of my fellow Wikipedians to insert the boxes into the article. And yes, one or two extra "early" songs would probably be a good idea. Let's see if any special requests come in.
I have cobbled together a fair-use clause, using yours and those of others as examples. I think the result is decent enough to pass muster. It might even satisfy the MAFIAA (although, given their modus operandi, some bribes might prove more effective in keeping them at bay :). --Plek 22:00, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
...and now "This Is It" has been added as well. Oh, the Humanity! --Plek 22:34, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Madonna picture...

I've uploaded a new picture that isn't butt ugly to the Madge article like the "performing" picture was. This is, to me, a FAIR USE promotional image like the images we've used in the Jean Harlow article. If this is not ok, can we please find an attractive image of her? What are papparazi for anyway? To take pictures that are usable by no one? PatrickJ83 23:56, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Timothy Hutton

hiya - I came across your comment somewhere about wanting some uniformity in infoboxes for Oscar winners. Timothy Hutton had none, so I added one that I think is correct, but could you have a look? Thanks - hope all's well. Tvoz | talk 08:38, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

thanks - yes, things are good! Tvoz | talk 00:15, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Palm Island ACOTF

Hi Rossrs, I notice you made an good analysis of the Palm Island article here last year, I was wondering if you had any further comments in light of all the activity there at the moment due to it being the current Collaboration of the Fortnight. Due to your experience of bringing articles up to feature status, your opinions are of huge interest to me as that is supposed to be objective of ACOTF. Any input you can add at the open tasks list would be much appreciated as we only have a week left. Thanks, Alec -(answering machine) 14:47, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Thank you

Welcome to the Twilight Zone indeed! :) In any case, and in the interest of WP:AGF, you might want to take a look at [1] and [2]. Both edits got wiped out by my anti-discussion-blanking revert. It looks like the anonymous IP editor tried to make constructive changes to the article—but did so on the talk page. Maybe you can make something out of it. Have a nice day/night! --Plek 07:15, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Notability of User218.217.208.98

Welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome your help to create new content, but your recent additions (such as User218.217.208.98) are considered nonsense. Please refrain from creating nonsense articles. If you want to test things out, edit the sandbox instead. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. Turlo Lomon 08:59, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

And now the non-template response. It appears you created an article when you meant to update a user page. Turlo Lomon 08:59, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

I'm in the process of listing a bunch of IPs as sock puppets. Is this wrong? I'm following the directions and examples on the sock puppet page. Am I not supposed to be tagging each page? thanks Rossrs 09:03, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
You need to read the second part of my message. You made an error on one of the ones you did. It created a regular article instead of a user page. Turlo Lomon 09:06, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
Be sure to include a colon (:) after "User". Omitting it was the mistake. Flyingtoaster1337 09:17, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your stalker

I would wait him out... sooner or later it will stop. Hopefully. Flyingtoaster1337 09:17, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

If they are being really persistently annoying, drop a word to the admins' incident noticeboard and ask them to decide whether anybody warrants blocking. There isn't any need for a sockpuppet check if they're all doing roughly the same thing - their behaviour alone will nail them. Flyingtoaster1337 13:15, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Toomuchtrivia tags

Many of the tags were added to pages that had only three or four trivia notes. I'm sorry I did not have the time to look over and review each one individually, but I believed, as I was right, that other editors such as yourselves would reinstate if the tag did indeed make sense. However, when this ip address had more than a hundred edits all with the same tag, and all within a couple of minutes of each other, how can it be anything but disruptive. I'm not saying they were all out of place, but a good number were.TheGreenFaerae 23:36, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] From Claudette To Vivien

That's great news! What fun. Nothing I like better than rewriting gibberish into English. But seriously though. My suggestion would be to let our Osaka cinephile write himself out, do all his edits for as long as he likes and when he has nothing more to add (hopefully), then do 1 big revert, rather than keep reverting every addition, because that only seems to provoke him to more depths of triviality. That's what I'd do.

Thank you for your third party statement on the Talk:James Dean page. I have now deleted the entire sexuality section and rewritten the relationships section. Perhaps you may have a look at it.

Instead of improving the article, the sockpuppet of another user has only deleted what I have written. See [7] and [8]. Perhaps you may also keep a watchful eye on the James Dean article. Thanks. Onefortyone 23:30, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Text

Right, but we can't add text, then source it to a Wikimirror. That is essentially the same thing as using Wikipedia to source itself and that is not sufficient to verify text. I probably should have clarified that on the talkpage...--Isotope23 12:41, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Regarding this edit: I've been using refs sparingly, including at the end of its necessity even if there are separate paragraphs between the start and end of a section using the one source (the reason: I think using the same source in successive paragraphs is as redundant as in successive sentences). Have I been wrong all this time? RadioKirk (u|t|c) 01:42, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

Okay, sounds good to me, I guess... ;) RadioKirk (u|t|c) 04:19, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Help with image usage

You are obviously an experienced Wikipedian. Could you explain your reverting the photos I uploaded for Grace Kelly? I am not familiar with the rules for licensing, etc., but I do believe the photos I used were more appropriate for the article. Thanks for your help. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Ermorse (talk • contribs) 03:45, 19 March 2007 (UTC).


Thank you for your explanation of the image use. You're certainly an asset to this great experiment--keep up the good work! Ermorse 23:17, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Infoboxes

Okie dokie! Got it! And you have keen observation, you caught me putting infoboxes. Is that bad? I think not at all. I just want all the actors' articles to have infoboxes (What do you think?). :) Ok, I'll fixed the other articles that I've made. Thanks for correcting me and now I'll always put in my mind birth and age template only for living... ok... thanks! Hedwig0407 (talk) 14:41, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

Yes, that what I mean, consistency to all people's articles. As of now, Im just doing female actors and after that I'll do male actors then to authors. Thank you :) Hedwig0407 (talk) 01:13, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Discussion?

Given your participation in the Nicole Kidman debate, I thought you might be interested in the discussion I started at Wikipedia Talk:Overcategorization#Categorising by national descent, origin, nationality, etc.. --Vbd (talk) 14:28, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Blondie (band)

Hey, thanks for catching that vandalism edit to Blondie. If you check the article history you'll see I've reverted it a bunch of times in the past for identical reasons: non-existent Grammys, chart position inflations, etc. I've definitely kept the article in my watchlist. User is using several anon IPs of course..... - eo 22:05, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Wptfe/Nrh15

It seems he has taken an interest in the Charles Boyer article in the last couple days. --PhantomS 06:18, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
