[edit] Madonna

Please do not continue editing Madonna, Sorry. This song does not at all sample CYFI. Her producer only said that they listened to Jackson 5 etc for inspiration. The only sample on Madonna's new album is ABBA's "Gimmie gimmie gimmie" In "Hung Up" Please do not make these accusations again or legal action will be implemented. We can also confirm there are no samples what so ever in Material girl. Especially not "Can you feel it"! 203.11.81.235 22:33, 19 January 2006 (UTC)

I've explained all this in the talk page of the Sorry (Madonna song) article. Take your comments and threats there. Street walker 23:51, 19 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thriller 60 million

If official means coming from the main source than when Michael Jackson says that it has sold close to 60 million on his documentary "Michael Jackson's Home Movies" which aired on Fox in 2003, and on his website www.mjjsource.com which is sold 59 million and this was 3 years ago then the estimate in 60 million. You should know this as a MJ fan, Street walker. If that does help go to www.mjinf.co.uk and they will explain it. 69.105.58.255 23:43, 15 January 2006 (UTC)

I say 54 million is the better sales figure to go with because that is the latest official sales figure released by SME. Even if it was 1997, we should still use that one. By now, it seems very likely that Thriller has sold 60 million, but that's just a guess. Anyway, Michael doesn't even know the tracks that were put on each album, or when they were released (which was evident in the court depositions in 1991 when he said Bad was released in 1986 and had 14 tracks), so he's not really qualified to give us an offical sales figure for Thriller, and www.mjjsource.com is shut down so we can't use that as a source. If I change it to 54 million, it will be reverted back to 60 million, so you win, I will keep it at 60 million. Street walker 16:28, 19 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] POV

POV IS not permitted on articles. Do not add pov or text that has no source. Mike 13:23, 19 January 2006 (UTC)

"If I told the police anything, I've long forgotten what it was I told them" is fine, but "common sense" has no place, has to be factual you know that Mike 13:36, 19 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Living people category

Hi, why are you removing the living people category from Michael Jackson? Talrias (t | e | c) 14:52, 19 January 2006 (UTC)

Hi, I noticed Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Living person. First, categories are nominated for deletion on WP:CSD. Second, this category was created by Jimbo and Danny in preparation for a future drive to improve the quality specifically on biographical articles. I'm not sure if there's been an announcement or discussion on the wiki yet, but if you like I can direct you there when I find one (I'm looking). Cheers! Demi ^T/_C 15:00, 19 January 2006 (UTC)

Hi, I'm not sure where to directly contact you so I figured I would try it here. I'm curious as to why the speculative cosmetic procedures on Michael Jackson were removed, as the section title was "Success and Controversy", and none of Jackson's actual surgeries can in fact be confirmed via a viable source. The paragraph within that section pretained directly to Jackson's cosmetic procedures, I thought it fitting to be placed there,

[edit] Vandalism and POV

Regarding this edit http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Diane_Dimond&diff=35932583&oldid=28847430 . I see from the previous talk page of yours which you have blanked, which incidentally is considered vandalsim, that you have been repeatedly warned about inserting POV into your edits. You have done it again, with this edit. Please stop. Funky Monkey 03:26, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

Oh, I have a source. I'll put the source in the article. I didn't realise you couldn't delete old messages. Maybe I'll archive them instead. Street walker 04:24, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

I see whats you've done and considering you have a userpage basically dedicated to Michael Jackson it is inapropriate and the source is find but the wording "dismal" is pov. Mike 04:26, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Come and vote your mind

Dear Christian friend,

I saw you on the list of Christian Wikipedians and wanted to let you know about something. The other day, someone nominated 12 Christian biography entries for deletion! They include a Christian university list of people (not unlike 68 other lists like it)[1], presidents of universities, and authors of many books.

Since that time, people have been voting. Please take this message as a call to vote; not a call to vote a certain way. I respect you and your ability to come, read the entry, and make a wise decision. In other words, I’m not vote stacking or campaigning; simply letting you know something that you’d probably like to know.

By the way, my friend recently started an organization called Wiki4Christ. If you’d like to join a network of Christians with a purpose on Wikipedia, please see the site!

Below are some of the links that need attention. Thanks for your consideration.

[edit] Barnstar

Orane gives Street walker this "tireless contributors" barnstar for his tireless work on Wikipedia. Keep it up!! Oran e (t) (c) (e) 15:56, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

Hey there S.W. I don't think that we have spoken directly. Anyway, I just want to encourage you to keep up the good work on the Micheal Jackson article. An article on such a highly successful and controversal artist is very hard to write, and I applaud your ongoing efforts. Keep it up. With your resilience, I'm sure that it will be featured soon. Oran e (t) (c) (e) 15:56, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

Thank-you very much. It's nice to know that people appreciate my work. Thanks for the self-esteem boost! Street walker 06:03, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] My RFA

Hi Street walker/Archive 2, thanks for participating in my RfA discussion. Unfortunately, my fellow Wikipedians have decided at this time that I am not suitable to take on this additional responsibility, as the RfA failed with a result of 66/27/5 (71.0% support). If you voted in support of my request, thank you! If you decided to oppose me at this time, then I hope that if I do choose to reapply in the future, the effort I will make in the meantime to improve and expand my contributions to Wikipedia may persuade you to reconsider your position. All the best, Proto t c 10:39, 3 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hi

Hello, I THINK YOUR A FUCKING IDIOT FOR LOVING MICHAEL JACKSON. HE'S A CHILD MOLESTER. I KNOW THIS KID THAT HE MOLESTED. MICHAEL JACKSON IS GAY GAY GAY. 71.103.106.156 17:14, 4 February 2006 (UTC}

Nice to meet you too. Street walker 17:15, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

lol. Street walker, you're the fucking man (now, dog)! I really appreciate the work you put in for the MJ articles. I don't know how you do it. I can't even balance websurfing and school, yet you do it, plus maintaining these articles without pay. You're awesome! Well, that's enough groveling... keep up the good work!
P.S. I thought you might like a piece of this action! -- Crnk Mnky 16:15, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

What an interesting link. They really do sound like MJ on Stranger in moscow (imho)--Manboobies 00:15, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Michael Jackson's body modifications

I rv'd your removal of Michael Jackson from the list of extensively modified individuals. Regardless of the extremely debatable nature of his surgical history (which doesn't favour the 2 rhinoplasties and a cleft position advanced by MJ's camp - not a particularily credible group of folks on this issue, IMHO), he's been well known not only for his music, but for his drastically altered appearance. That's why he's there. Regardless of the number of surgeries and procedures he's had to alter his appearance, he's arguably the world's most famous and successful individual with an interest in heavy body modification and an exellent example of the dramatic changes that plastic surgery and other more mainstream practices can effect on the human body. Glowimperial 13:29, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

Is there a list of extensively modified individuals? I completely do not understand the relevance or need for such an article to exist, which is no doubt heavily based upon guess work anyway. it's insulting, demeaning and unworthy of a encyclopedia which the organisation one day hopes to publish in books for African school kids. Street walker, have you considered requesting the article to be deleted? I would support the measure. --Manboobies 00:15, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] I always feel like somebody's watching me... (and I ain't got no privacy), Ah Oh Oh...

Hey man, great work on the article. It's really coming forward. Just wondered if you'd consider putting 'Jam' on as a sample (as it's hip hop imo) and perhaps a sample of the song he co-sung in, as in the title above... Nice work man though, really good stuff --Manboobies 00:15, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

PS, did you read the news on MJ's lawyer quitting? I'm thinking he reckons he isn't going to get paid. What a money hungry bastard huh? Fu*k knows how much winning that case for MJ has done for his career. Greedy little man. --Manboobies 00:26, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

Thank you very much, I try my best. And yes, I have heard about MJ's lawyer. I also read the statement he released yesterday regarding the latest rumours [2], "I am very disturbed by the false, erroneous, and self-serving reports about the relationship between Michael Jackson, my law partner, Susan Yu, and me." Street walker 00:29, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

I'm having trouble understanding how this guy and this guy are the same Manboobies. I guess MB just knows how to hold in his raving MJ fanatacism until he's in friendly territory, lol. -- Crnk Mnky 22:50, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 3121

There is absolutely no way that tracks from an unreleased album would qualify as fair use. Please do not ever, ever upload material like that again. If you did, we would be required by law to block you permanently from editing Wikipedia. --Michael Snow 22:15, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image Tagging Image:Beat It.jpg

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Beat It.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{GFDL-self}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|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 media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, 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 unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Dethomas 16:40, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hello

You've been real quiet lately, how are you doing these days?--Manboobies 09:24, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

Well, I've been busy with alot of papers I've had to hand in. I plan on doing some work on Wiki over my 2 week break that starts next Monday. How's the Michael Jackson article going? Street walker 11:33, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Yo.

User:Manboobies/WackoJackoworkinprogress has a work in progress on a new introduction i'd like you to take a look at/edit with me. I've made a number of long winded contributions of late to the real article numbering zillions and I can't be arsed to do anymore for a while. Your turn ;) lol.--Manboobies 00:19, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Can you help us for the french version of Wikipedia ?

Hi ! If you have it, can you upload a personal, good and recent (less than 5 years) picture of Michael Jackson on Wikimedia Commons ? In France, we can't use "fair use" rule. It is very strict, so we can't upload a lot of pictures. Our pictures must not violate any copyright. Thank you for your help, and sorry for my english.

[edit] Notability problems; this article may be deleted

A tag has been placed on Rise Electric, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be a biographical account about a person, group of people, or band, but it does not indicate how or why he/she/they is/are notable. If you can indicate why Rise Electric is really notable, I advise you to edit the article promptly, and also put a note on Talk:Rise Electric. Any admin should check for such edits before deleting the article. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 7 under Articles. You might also want to read our general biography criteria. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. To contest the tagging and request that admins should wait a while for you to assert his/her/their notability, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and then immediately add such an assertion. It is also a very good idea to add citations from reliable sources to ensure that your article will be verifiable. --ais523 12:16, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
