The Odd Life of Amy Letwis

Hey, good catch with finding the article for this. It looks like the film was a hoax. If it does exist, it certainly didn't accomplish the various things that were posted on the article at all and I actually found that it had been deleted on the Spanish Wikipedia as well. I can only guess that they moved here after that was deleted, in the hopes of avoiding detection. That they re-named the article and knew how to create templates and categories suggests that they likely know their way around Wikipedia, which unfortunately means that they may be back. (sighs) Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 07:57, 9 January 2016 (UTC)

I had a hunch that it could be a hoax when all I could find was a blogspot, but felt I couldn't prove it. I was sure however that if it existed it did not meet our notability guidelines. Thats some effort though creating 4 pages, a category & a template all to back it up.Blethering Scot 14:18, 9 January 2016 (UTC)

Can you explain why you are reverting per WP:BRD, it is clear you knew a discussion was taking place and its clear you are ignoring. This was the edit where BRD came into effect. Your supposed to be an admin & a clearly involved one at that.Blethering Scot 23:22, 13 February 2016 (UTC)

Your continued following of my edits is starting to border on Wikipedia:Harassment. That and your attitude towards me from our first encounter has been substandard. Your behaviour was noted to be substandard as much as mine. If this continues then we clearly need to go back to AN. I will not feel harassed by an Admin with a grudge.Blethering Scot 23:31, 13 February 2016 (UTC)
Blethering Scot, my watchlist showed changes to one of those pages which seemed perverse, so I checked for more. That's not stalking and its not harassment.
You really should try to let go of your severe WP:OWNERSHIP issues, and of your apparent inability to WP:AGF. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 23:36, 13 February 2016 (UTC)
I believe it is harassment. You have followed my edits constantly since we first clashed at the St Mirren article & your watch list showed it because you added it to your watch list. At no point prior would you have had any reason to watch that patch. Your attitude towards me was unacceptable, you made false statements against me which I had to prevent evidence that you were wrong. You had to apologise yet still was adamant you were right. Tonight you edit warred on an article you knew was being discussed about clearly contrary to WP:BRD. You are harassing me and you are an admin. Its clear from this statement that its simply your opinion not based in fact and that simply because you don't like something doesn't make it policy. You keep sighting AGF, hard to even remotely consider this given your attitude from the word go. Its sad but if you continue to stalk my edits then we will be back at AN pretty quickly.Blethering Scot 23:43, 13 February 2016 (UTC)
And sorry wanting an article to be consistent is not an WP:OWNERSHIP issue. Its a Consistency issue. You know full well you are involved, you know full well the behaviour expected from an admin yet you display the opposite. You clearly felt like edit warring tonight and clearly knew a discussion was taking place. You need to seriously consider whether your involvement with me have shown the behaviour befitting an admin of this site. An admin does not edit war, they don't bring personal opinion into things, they follow policy not opinion and they don't harass or victimise editors because there opinion differs from theres, they dont constantly accuse them of arguing that F.C. should actually be FC & muddying waters when actually it was another editor entirely. Take a hard look at yourself and tell me that throughout this whole saga you have AGF with me.Blethering Scot 23:49, 13 February 2016 (UTC)


BS, I have had more than enough of your insistence that every time our paths cross (which is very rarely) that it is evidence of harassment.

I have had more than enough of your WP:OWNership of articles -- which has been noted by others too, most recently at WT:FOOTY.

I have had more than enough of your insistence on turning every small misunderstanding into an insistence that I am a liar. One example of that is when I confused your desire to remove "F.C." with another editors desire to change it to "FC". As I and other editors pointed out, both were proposals which could and should be considered separately from the dot in "St.", and that your use of that RM to raise that issue was muddying the waters. When you raised the "F.C." convention at WT:FOOTY, you got zero support.

Since you won't AGF, get off my talk page, and stay off it. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 00:00, 14 February 2016 (UTC)

User:BrownHairedGirlOur paths never crossed, yet now they do very frequently since we first clashed. Its disappointing that you keep trying to evade things. DO we really need to take this to AN. I never raised the F.C. convention at WP:Footy i categorically did not. I was not interested in F.C. being FC at any point. Where is you assumption of good faith. Show me my ownership of articles, it doesn't exist. I want consistency & because you have taken a dislike to me you seem intent on being difficult. You did edit war tonight to retain your favoured opinion, regardless of anything you are an admin.Blethering Scot 12:05 am, Today (UTC+0)
User:BrownHairedGirl if you continue to make false statements about me such as I asked for comment about F.C. to F.C or even suggested it (Do you not remember having to apologise for that one already), stalk my edits or simply harass me in discussions then I will go to ANI. Your an admin and have shown signs of behaviour that no admin should. You need to take a long hard look at yourself.Blethering Scot 00:13, 14 February 2016 (UTC)
User:BrownHairedGirl has now added to her page that I'm a Perma-angry editor who is unable to AGF doesn't seem to understand "get off my talk page, and stay off it". So maybe hatting the thread will convey the message more clearly.Blethering Scot 00:22, 14 February 2016 (UTC)
User:BrownHairedGirl there is absolutely no need for you making such comments about me. I have asked you to take a look at yourself. Do you feel you have assumed good faith in anyway. Your edit notice say says do tell me when I've screwed up, yet you don't like it when people do. You also mention AGF a lot yet don't display it. Your an admin not a normal editor and should remember that.Blethering Scot 00:26, 14 February 2016 (UTC)

Unicode

BS, as part of a long series of edits, the changes I am making include:

  • removing dots from "St." per the MOS
  • fixing date ranges, to use endashes
  • bypassing common redirects
  • replacing HTML entities with unicode -- to make the pages easier for humans to read, and easier for bots and scripts to parse

You have been reverting some such edits, with comments such as:

You might not want to type unicode, which is fine. But why on earth replace it with hard-to-read HTML entities?

Please can you stop doing these pointless reverts? Thanks. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 16:49, 7 February 2016 (UTC)

They aren't pointless. They are correct. You claimed in your edit summaries that you were removing removing dots from "St." per the MOS, that is incorrect and should not be in your edit summary when not removing Saints, that is regardless of if you are using AWB or not. That is setting out to mislead. Secondly you introduced a redirect by changing a Saint in the only one you actually did what your edit summary said. You are pre empting a move discussion also doing the opposite of what your edit summary said in bypassing common redirects. Secondly the unicode creates an easier editing environment, creates less chance of inexperienced users using the wrong dash and is not any more difficult to read.Blethering Scot 17:03, 7 February 2016 (UTC)
BS, the edit summaries do not claim that every single change listed is done in every edit -- they just indicate that the changes made include some or all of those listed, and possibly others (that's the "etc" at the end)
As to unicode, are you seriously claiming that 2015–16 is easier to read than 2015–16? Seriously?
BTW, that move discussion would be long over if it wasn't for your insistence on introducing a red herring. Your desire to replace the "F.C." suffix with "FC" or no suffix could quite properly be left to a separate discussion -- as ~I suggested, and as other editors have also noted.
I note too that you wrote the common name per evidence provided is St Mirren, not St Mirren F.C..
So you agree that the dot should be removed from "St." ... it's just that you want another change as well.
When you asked[1] for guidance at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject_Football#WP:Commonname, the reply[2] explained to you that consistency was a key policy goal of article names.
At this stage, it's hard to avoid the conclusion that you are simply doing your best to be obstructive. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 17:32, 7 February 2016 (UTC)
Wow are you serious. I did not put forward the FC v F.C. argument i frankly don't care about that. I have not attempted to muddy the waters at all. You argued common name and created a false argument, you were nominating a name that was not the most common. Just as you are doing now. Sarcastic clap to the most misleading and argumentative admin out there.Blethering Scot 17:37, 7 February 2016 (UTC)
BS, I will ask again.
  1. If you are genuinely not attempting to muddy the waters, then why not separate the two issues of the dot in "St." from the "F.C." suffix?
  2. After screenfuls of abuse, you belatedly agreed[3] that the common name does not include the dot in "St.". So why try to hold up the fixing of that issue? --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 17:44, 7 February 2016 (UTC)
Are you serious. I have not asked for any change to F.C. as a disambig. You are muddying the waters for yourself. And don't you blame me for holding up the closure, as any admin could of closed by now if they wished. My argument is that your argument of common name has been false from the start. Common name does not include F.C. or FC.Blethering Scot 17:48, 7 February 2016 (UTC)
User:BrownHairedGirl Im waiting for my apology.Blethering Scot 17:57, 7 February 2016 (UTC)
Lets put this in terms you will understand User:BrownHairedGirl. You accused me of something I didn't do. You should apologise. The fact you are blaming other editors when you clearly above accused me, shows you have zero respect for me or the two other editors you are trying to blame. Also the fact that you are trying to bully me into separating the two issues looks even worse. A closing admin is more than capable of weighing up all comments, so I don't see why you are putting undue weight on an editor to withdraw their view. Really poor.Blethering Scot 20:49, 7 February 2016 (UTC)
(ec) BS, if I confused your desire to remove the suffix from another editor's desire to change it, then I'm happy to correct that. My point remains that whichever of those goals you any other editor seek, they are both separate from the removal of the dot from "St.", and should be considered separately.
I really don't understand why you appear so deeply offended that I mistook which of those goals was your idea, and which was that of another editor. But if it upset you, then I'm happy to apologise. Now can we get back to discussing substance?
As Number 57 has pointed out to you at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject_Football#WP:Commonname, the naming convention is to include the "F.C." when it is part of the club's name. You apparently want to change that convention, which is a legitimate aim if you can win consensus for it ... but the way to change any convention is not by disregarding it on an individual article.
My point about common name has been from the start that the common name does not include a dot in "St.". The dot in "St." also clashes with the MoS. You do not appear to disagree with either of those points. Is that correct? Or do you disagree with either of them? --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 21:04, 7 February 2016 (UTC)
Problem as i pointed out to Number 57 we are not consistent on that, we clearly use FC as well. By that means i don't see it as a convention like you do. Even if it was a convention, policy has to override that. If common name can be proven and there is no need for disam there is absolutely no reason to ignore that policy. WP:Footy is notorious for circumventing policy for its own means and i know that from previously being a member. I was hoping for rational conversation there to avoid need for a RFC at common name but it appears I will need to just in order to get enough of a consensus either for or against. Simply not enough editors.
:::::::::: Secondly no i agree common name does not include a dot in "St." However I cannot drop my point that common name doesn't include FC at all. As for mos, we will agree to disagree on that.Blethering Scot 21:25, 7 February 2016 (UTC)

Hi Blethering Scot,

I noticed you changed the Category for this new musical from 2016, to 2015. While the show did have a limited, pre-Broadway run in Atlanta last year, with essentially the same cast and creatives, it doesn't open on Broadway until next month. It will also be eligible in 2016 for any Broadway season awards. So I believe 2016 is the accurate year to list. But I wanted to give you notice and an opportunity for your input before reverting it. Thanks. X4n6 (talk) 23:07, 9 March 2016 (UTC)

Hi. The cat should always be the year it was first performed in, so if it had a tryout then that is the year that should be listed. Whilst the Broadway run, is 2016 that's not accurate for the cat. The only reason 2016 could be included was if it was a significantly different piece, but it's not. Blethering Scot 07:15, 10 March 2016 (UTC)
Hey, thanks for the response. However, when I checked the category, I discovered a large number of entries where the year corresponds to the B'way or West End opening year; not the pre-B tryouts or first productions. This is likely since no actual definition for "category year" exists and readers may reasonably expect their favorite musical to be listed under the year it opened on Broadway or the West End, not Poughkeepsie, Des Moines, Manchester or Lloyd Webber's prep school in Westminster. Not interested in warring over it, because I appreciate your input. But I'd like to hear from some other folks as well and build some consensus. Thanks. X4n6 (talk) 09:04, 10 March 2016 (UTC)
I suggest you raise at Wikipedia:WikiProject Musical Theatre. A Broadway or west end production is not the bee all & end all. So say a play is first performed in 2013 regionally & then gets a West End production in 2016. The play is still a 2013 play, it hasn't been created on 2016. I suggest you opinion the Cat up & read the cat description. It says musicals written or first performed in. Blethering Scot 09:55, 10 March 2016 (UTC)
Your example works if the production is a completely separate mounting of the exact same show. As you say, not every show goes to New York or London; and sometimes even when they do, they are not related to the original production. But in your example, it's still the same show, just a new production. However, if a show merely does its out of town runs with the intention of fine-tuning the new show it will open on Broadway or the West End, that's a totally different thing. Those early runs should not count, because then it could essentially be a totally different show. Plots change. Characters change. In the case of musicals, songs come and go. Members of the creative team get replaced and the new director/writer/lyricist/composer completely changes everything. So the play that opens in New York has virtually no resemblance to the play that opened on the road a year earlier. The history of theatre provides tons of examples where this is true. Shows often go through notoriously long workshops and/or pre-Broadway trials en route to becoming the show that finally opens on Broadway and/or the West End. But those early trial performances aren't counted in the show's run - just as previews are counted separately from a show's official run. But your interpretation treats all these examples as though there are no differences. I believe there are. And theatre organizations like the Internet Broadway Database, The Broadway League, the American Theatre Wing and The Society of London Theatre also acknowledge these distinctions. So if WP rules don't make a distinction between them, then those rules need to be revisited. Thanks again for your suggestion and input. Will look forward to our continued discussions. X4n6 (talk) 22:39, 10 March 2016 (UTC)
Different productions do not make a show suddenly change the year it was first written or performed in. By your school of thought Gypsy which was written in 1959, would be a 2015 musical because it received a significant revival with all new creative team. Thats a new production but it doesnt change when it was created. The source in the article clearly states that the production was a world premiere. A world premiere that occurred in 2015. The cat description is pretty clear on this. Kinky boots received an out of town try out in 2012 and that is the year the cat is included, not 2013 when it premiered on Broadway. As I've already said the guidelines, whilst I firmly agree with them, are nothing to do with meBlethering Scot 22:55, 10 March 2016 (UTC)
I've already noted that I accept that if the same show is mounted in different years the first production counts. So your "Gypsy" example misses the mark because that's obviously a revival, which is an entirely different kettle of fish that I never addressed. But a show like "A Chorus Line," which was famously workshopped forever, shouldn't have those early workshop performances count. "The Fantasticks" was originally produced as "Joy Comes to Deadhorse" in 1956, four years before it opened off-Broadway in 1960 under the new name. Matt, Maria and El Gallo, were the leading characters in both shows. But by your argument, the show opened in 1956. So perhaps the best solution is new sub-categories: "Broadway musicals by year" and "West End musicals by year." The same for plays. Those would be the only categories that accurately reflect the year-specific practices of the ruling theatre bodies I've pointed to. X4n6 (talk) 01:29, 11 March 2016 (UTC)
Im not really wanting to debate this further, mainly because the cat and guideline were not created by me. I can see partially where your coming from, although I don't agree with it. If you want a wider discussion it will need to be at Wikipedia:WikiProject Musical Theatre, as any change would need to be discussed there.Blethering Scot 20:56, 11 March 2016 (UTC)

Edits to American Psycho Musical

Scott,

I apologize if this is the wrong forum, or protocol, but wished to explain the reasons for edits. Obviously you are a major contributor in this space. It would be helpful for me to understand concerns you have.

The American Psycho Musical predates the cited sources. The evidence of that is via closed communications or platforms. There is nothing that would be of interest to the general public, but the timeline is important. It feels as if you have a particular issue over linguistics, sources or certain parties. There are other projects and information that will link to this page which cite the exact same sources that have not been disturbed. This affects other information and people. The author of the original underlying material. The director of the film of the same name. The creative elements involved. Other works in a similar vein. The genre history. Current projects, etc.

Before new pages are created, additions or corrections to this made, or financial information added- it would be helpful to understand your position. Why do you consider one source credible and another not? Why would a site that publishes the exact original press release be labeled unreliable? What do you recommend in order to avoid these types of situations?

After so much time and effort, you appear to be an excellent person to ask. I realize there are compliance standards and this may be annoying to you, but it is much appreciated.

Thank you for your time adding insight.

Hi. I have started it but it will be a couple of days before I can finish it due to work.Blethering Scot 18:36, 10 May 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for creating the page and continuing to work on this. Could you let me know when you have finished and I will then add in some of the player transfers? Rusty1111 : Talk 08:00, 13 May 2016 (UTC)

Hi. Everything that should be on the page, is now on the page. A lot of it is in hidden sections and you know you can just unhide them when required.Blethering Scot 17:02, 13 May 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for the edit. Rusty1111 : Talk 17:35, 5 June 2016 (UTC)

Queen of the South Season 2016-17 Kit

Would you be able to update the home and away kits for next season? There is no third kit for the new season. Link below:

Hi. Are the ones on Queen of the South correct? If not I'm afraid I don't have the knowledge to build the kits from scratch. You would be best to ask at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Football and see if anyone there can help you.Blethering Scot 16:50, 23 June 2016 (UTC)
