[edit] MTG content

You're new here, and quite enthusiastic on the subject of Magic, but I think you're failing to place things in perspective. Wikipedia is not a Magic encyclopedia, and much of what you've been adding lately is going beyond the scope of this project. I'm speaking especially on the MTG rules article, as well as your additions of Magic reference in some strange places (COP, Tempo). I also think the number of card images you're uploading exceeds fair use.

What you may find interesting is that there is already a wiki devoted to Magic at http://mtgarchive.net/. Perhaps a good place to put more energy into? -- Netoholic @ 21:07, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

I'm actually just trying to improve on what's already here. Wikipedia needs a Magic article, correct? And it should have a (brief) explanation of the gameplay and rules. Since it seemed like there was a problem in the gameplay section of the existing article, I was trying to split the section into a main article and a smaller section on the main page.

COP I didn't add. I was bored and fixing links. Tempo and mulligan I have added, but those are both game terms in the first place so I don't see a problem with that. As for images, it's a matter of style. Articles get pretty boring without images. I may have overdone it in places, though. You're welcome to cut them, of course.

And please don't try to get rid of me like that. I'm trying to make these pages into something that is readable by someone who doesn't play the game, and accurately portrays the many facets of Magic. Part of that, or even most of that, is style. Thus the images, thus the rules page. I see no reason why this page can't be featured article. --Khaim 22:31, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

You put a cleanup tag on artificial consciousness article. Why do you think the article needs cleanup, and what are your suggestions? I ask that because you did not explain it anywhere, putting the cleanup tag on that article was all that you have ever written about that article, no other edits, comments or messages. Also it's somewhat strange that you are a new user who only edited articles on Magic and other such card games so far, and the only edit different from these is Artificial Consciousness article. No I don't say that you cannot do that, just somewhat seems that you are not who you say you are, you simply look like too experienced for a new or inexperienced user. Also I cannot avoid saying that your writing style reminds me a lot that of Paul Beardsell, who BTW likes gambling and card games as well, and who is banned from editing Artificial Consciousness article indefinitely by the decision of the Arbitration Committee. I'm not certain that you are a sock puppet of Paul Beardsell, but I inevitably have such suspicion. But the only thing I ask you is to substantiate your edits, so that your reasons would be more clear to others.Tkorrovi 15:29, 23 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Media coverage of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict

Why does it need to be wikified, in your opinion? It seems rather strange, considering the article is reasonably well-formatted. -- Ynhockey ^(Talk) 19:09, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

I was mostly refering to the intro. It reads like a personal account, not an encyclopedia entry. The section "charges of media bias" is also rather poorly done. I may have added the wrong tag, however. --Khaim 19:54, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 37...in a row?

I noticed that you deleted the Clerks fact from the 37 article. I undid your edit, and cleaned it up for it to be more appropriate for Wikipedia, seeing as the number is indeed significant in Kevin Smith's films. --DodgerOfZion 19:55, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Soul Feast Naturalize.JPG

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Soul Feast Naturalize.JPG. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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 non-free media lacking such an explanation 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.
