Upcoming Television Episodes[edit]

Hey, I noticed that you created the template for [{{Future television episode}}. However I noticed when people type the template with "|sortkey" it affects the alphabetisation of the "list of upcoming episodes" page. Perhaps people aren't understanding the purpose of the sortkey tag or perhaps it needs to be removed/edited. I figured you would like to know. --GenestealerUK 18:03, 3 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia press coverage[edit]

Hiya, I saw your comment at the Detroit News article. If you see new Wikipedia coverage, I recommend listing it here: Wikipedia:Press_coverage#August. And thanks! --Elonka 16:07, 2 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, Bob already took care of that. Michiganotaku 23:07, 2 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

FG[edit]

I don't see how not having "The plot is expected to..." somehow violates WP:Crystal. We have never added that to any future The Simpsons episode, and has never been a problem. CTJF83Talk 22:54, 27 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That's because The Simpsons have jumped the shark and no one feels any anticipation for their new episodes. Sorry if that sounds uncivil to The Simpsons. Michiganotaku (talk) 22:57, 27 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Well you didn't really answer my question...I was just throwing The Simpsons stuff in, as an example. The question...How does not having "The plot is expected to" a violation of Crystal? Note the opening sentence of Crystal, "Wikipedia is not a collection of unverifiable speculation". I'm sure you aren't implying, or suggesting that Fox would for some reason release a false edit summary about an upcoming episode of a show. CTJF83Talk 23:11, 27 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It is only if you decide that it is. I heard that most people are now forbidden from editing FG articles regardless of whether what they write has any validity to it, and you've shown me by your actions that that is exactly true. Michiganotaku (talk) 20:40, 2 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked[edit]

After investigating a report at Wikipedia:Requests_for_checkuser/Case/PrimeFan, I have come to the conclusion that this account, along with a large number of other accounts, are all being operated by the same person as abusive sockpuppets. Operating multiple accounts is not permitted when they are used to edit the same articles and debates. However, due to the nature of the IP addresses involved, it is possible that some of these users have coincidentally shared a computer or IP address. If this is the case, you may request to be unblocked by emailing the blocking admin or the unblock mailing list with your official University email address. This is to prevent one person from spoofing the admins with multiple free throwaway email accounts such as gmail or yahoomail. (Your email address will not be stored or used other than for verification.) If this is a misunderstanding I apologize in advance, and your account will be unblocked as soon as you provide proof that you are a separate individual. Be advised two checkusers examined this case and agreed on the results. — Rlevse • Talk • 02:55, 4 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
