[edit] RE: Your copyright paranoia

Is getting ridiculous, seriously can somebody ban this guy? I'm referring to your comments on Ashley Massaro's Playboy cover. Trevor GH5 01:49, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

Also please don't waste your time trying to explain your reasoning to me I've read all the relevant discussions and you have a deluded, sad agenda against any and all pics. Trevor GH5 01:51, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
Not against these ones. --Abu badali (talk) 07:46, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re:NFL Draft

You're welcome. The trades are not as important as the picks, obviously, but it's always good to include all of the information that we can. I think the recent years' articles, like 2007 NFL Draft, are pretty good models. ×Meegs 19:15, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

I have added the two sections requested. Kingjamie 20:47, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Grumble grumble (beat me!)

Good thing that you created this. I was discussing this with a related user, about sections in the Maglev train article (but this has been mainly cleared up anyway). I am referring to Template:Toomanysections. Simply south 11:00, 23 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Pandora Dreams

A tag has been placed on Pandora Dreams, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the page and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Ali (t)(c) 21:36, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

Hey there. I've deleted the page as it lacked context. You may recreate it later, as long as it provides context, asserts notability and meets WP:PORNBIO. Best, Fvasconcellos (t·c) 01:57, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Walking plank

Hi it is definitely not a myth as there is reference to it in The Times during the 1820s/30s. Regards Gustav von Humpelschmumpel 16:55, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

Hi, I have removed it again as placing that statement in such a prominent position would make people think it was a myth and a 20th century creation. It clearly was not a myth or a 20th century creation if the phrase was printed in the Times in the 1820s. Gustav von Humpelschmumpel 12:23, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
Do you not believe that the phrase "walk the plank" is used in The Times in 1829? If you do believe that please explain to me why we should give credance to theories that it is a creation of 20th Century cinema? Gustav von Humpelschmumpel 10:49, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] New York Giants

I can vouch for everything about that colloquialism "Jints" except for the statement that it is now used in reference to the football Giants. There, we're taking someone's word for it. Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? 20:09, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

I read your note. I'm not sure what you're getting at about "attitude". You made a comment about not taking peoples' word for it, which is a totally fair statement, and all I'm telling you in the above is that while the reference to "Jints" relating to the baseball Giants is something I can verify, I don't have any information about the uncited part you had left in originally, about the football team being called the "Jints". For that, I'm taking the word of whoever put that info there. Perhaps it should be cited also? In any case, I'll just assume I don't get your sense of humor, as apparently you don't get mine. :) Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? 08:07, 19 August 2007 (UTC)
Actually, it would appear that it's you that has the snippy attitude. And I'm still waiting for someone to cite some evidence confirming the actual usage of the nickname "Jints", as well as its "current" pronunciation, for the NFL's Giants. Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? 01:23, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Template:Toomanysections

Hey, just a bit of standard author notification for you: I have nominated {{Toomanysections}} (which you created) for deletion here alongside an analogous template that (interestingly) was created 2 days before yours. If you have any comments about the matter, your input would be appreciated. Thanks, GracenotesT § 20:53, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Clackson scroll formula

Dear Trevor, I just noticed your question on the discussion page for this article.

Well, in the formula

l = \pi \cdot s \cdot n^2

π is 22/7, s is the spacing between the turns of your scroll and n is the number of complete turns in your scroll (which in the formula is "squared", i.e. multiplied by itself, which is what the little 2 means). You multiply all these together, i.e.

l = 22/7 x s x n x n

would be another way of writing it.

I find this formula a very useful way of estimating pretty accurately the amount of stock I will need for a job.

As for the second formula in the article, someone else added that. It seems to be about how the scroll formula was worked out, but I am not mathematician.

[edit] Would you take a look?

An image used in the article on the first Bangladeshi pornstar Jazmin, Image:WorshipThisBitch3.jpg, the cover of the DVD that made her the selling point, a first for a Bangladeshi, is up for deletion here. You may be interested to take a look. Aditya(talk • contribs) 21:23, 16 December 2007 (UTC)


[edit] L.T.'s sack totals

Having looked at the wiki standard, the standard for wikipedia is verifiability. The New York Giants are the source for the 142 sacks. As long as the 9.5 sacks his rookie season are noted as unofficial then the 142 is the accurate and verifiable number. I do not understand why the NFL policy would be the "controlling legal" authority. According to wikipedai, verifiability is. The 142 sacks are verifiable in scores of places. In fact, the NFL may be one of the few people who use the false figure of 133.5. So, before there is an edit war, let's go to the discussion page and have people discuss.

Further, there is plenty of misinofrmation about the MVPs as well. I am fully aware that there are publications that list Gino Marchetti as the 1958 AP NFL MVP, they are not accurate. Futher, Joe Schmidt was not an AP MVP in 1960. Alan page was the first defensive player to win the AP NFL MVP. Lawrence Taylor was the second.72.0.36.36 (talk) 03:01, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Jessica Alba

I see your negative edit about Jessica Alba. I will be starting a discussion shortly over editorial decisions to include negative information.

In any biography, there is probably a tendency for fans to be attracted to an article. Therefore, consensus could be wrong. For example, the Jessica Alba or Governor Bill Richardson article is probably watched by people who like these two individuals. Add negative information and it is possible that it will be deleted citing "consensus".

I am not that kind of person. I seek the correct editing position. Include negative and positive information. However, I also see the posibility of article manipulation by gangs of fans. Therefore, I seek a broader consensus on the policy.

I am alerting you because I follow the highest ethical standards and transparency policy even though I like Jessica Alba and wouldn't mind a very positive article written for a fan, like me.
