Re The Motorcycle Diaries (film)[edit]

Hey, my good man. What is going on in this article is beyond belief. Never in my mind would I think that such bad blood could exist in Wikipedia, and some, with the best intentions (bull shit). We not only need you, but a team of admins....see the talk page, and more....I work on many Argentinian films, as you may know, and I have worked on this article often...politics seems to be getting involved...and sub silentio...on the right wing of the spectrum...neutrality is one thing...but come on.........more soon...I am sure... My best, sir..... It seems to me that some editors are out to get a Wiki-editor (who contributes often) due to his political POV. I truly think he CAN be a neutral editor...

Hello amigo....I wish that were true...nothing has been resolved. There are larger issues here....and it's called revenge...see all the images in the article...I think I have done my job as far as Wiki policy is concerned...I hope you can continue to help...My best -- Luigibob (talk) 04:30, 23 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Jedi Knight SkierRMH, you always, come in and do your best....I think the article is still in trouble...I did some edits this eve to continue to delete anything that may be considered as NPOV..... again, I think there is REVENGE in the mind of a few folk -- Best, one more time -- Luigibob (talk) 08:29, 23 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I guess things have calmed down....thank the Gods...but I suspect, it's only for a while..as far as I'm concerned the article is NPOV at this point....that is unless one does not like the subject matter at all, no matter what!. best -- Luigibob (talk) 14:19, 23 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
RE: Don't stress out. Hahahahahaha. Your comment clearly shows why you are the best! Have a great day... Luigibob (talk) 22:43, 25 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yojimbo[edit]

Man we lost a so many images didn't we with that deadline. Not exactly a smart way of dealing with it . Anyway File:Yojimbo (movie poster).jpg ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 17:48, 24 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Also see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of James Bond allies in Die Another Day. If one went then I can see that they'll delete all of them. Finding encyclopedic info other than in universe shouldn't be too difficult ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 16:50, 26 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 14:29, 27 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sheesh. I see what you mean about those gigantic image sizes now. For the last six months I have had my web setting at ignore font sizes on web pages so I didn't notice anything. However I set it back to default today and high plains drifter image looks about 900px!!! I take it this problem is temporary -its quite an embarrassment ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 17:38, 31 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Skier can you restore these cheers

Also a film article needs creating on it. I'll se eif I can do something in the coming days ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 16:23, 14 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello and a comment[edit]

I've been running into a real nasty editor...I think this person thinks it all begins and ends with his edits...I think I will just let the article go... it's too bad because I was working on the article with a retired attorney who knows a lot about the law and hence did help bring very interesting POV's to the article (and a novice Wikipedian)...but, as you know, I'm busy with tons of film noir articles and world cinema...I just wanted to let you know that I'm not a rabbid editor and can walk away if need be... again, I think you are doing a super job as an admin. My best -- Luigibob (talk) 09:38, 27 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

User talk:The one and only JESSICA[edit]

I recommend this talk page be deleted and a word of caution be given to the user? Aside from using her page almost as a talk forum (not quite), she's given quite a lot of personal information about herself. -WarthogDemon 22:12, 30 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Venereology.jpg)[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Venereology.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

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.

Jay Hambro[edit]

you deleted the article on Jay Hambro for reasons of him not being notable enough. I am confused by this and would consider the below enough to put him up: - he is the Chief Executive of one of Russia's largest iron ore companies with a market value of c.US$2 billion. - the company he runs, Aricom, is a leading innovator in the industry with a unique and fascinating investment story. - he is a leader of the iron ore industry and as such is a regular commentator in the media. Recently I have seen or heard him on the BBC, CNBC, Bloomberg, Russia Today. He is also regularly quoted in the Times, Financial Times, Daily Telegraph etc. - he is also a popular speaker at conferences. He last spoke at a conference in Perth as a keynote speaker with an audience of c.500 people.

perhaps you should reconsider and reinstate him. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Oliverrath (talk • contribs) 13:56, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Redirect of Straight To The Pros[edit]

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Straight To The Pros, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Straight To The Pros is a redirect to a non-existent page (CSD R1).

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Straight To The Pros, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. To see the user who deleted the page, click here CSDWarnBot (talk) 23:30, 6 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please substitute block tags[edit]

I noticed several pages where you added {{usernameblocked}} to a user talk page. I haven't reviewed the blocks and I don't question them, but you should be using {{subst:usernameblocked}}. Likewise all block tags and warnings should be substituted. See WP:UW and WP:UTM for more information. Thanks.--Doug.(talk • contribs) 05:05, 10 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Also, you really ought to sign your block tags. Thanks.--Doug.(talk • contribs) 05:10, 10 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

asserted significance by saying that he is a leader in traditional Catholicism and that his website has very high web traffic. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Highsk (talk • contribs) 13:20, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Mr. Skier .. re Malèna[edit]

I've got someone who wants to change the poster on this film because I guess, it outrages his/her sensibility. It's called censorship. The original poster I uploaded is fine, it's not erotic or tasteless. The film, to be sure, is sensual but ... we are not sensors, am I right on this? Please, if you see fit, put a temp block on the page ... and whatever else you see fit. If I wrong about this, do let me know. My best-- Luigibob (talk) 06:47, 20 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Brahmotsavam photos[edit]

Hi., of all the photos you deleted - i would like you to return just one of them TirumalaBrahmaUtsavDwajas.jpg. The reason being that this image will be under fair use (this religious ceremony happens within the temple where the cameras are not allowed) whereas the other photos were taken outside the temple premises where there is no restriction. The snap in question will have the same fair use rationale as this image. In case you have any question, please let me know. --Kalyan (talk) 17:22, 20 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
