Thanks EVula... nice to be welcome... the set of links will be helpful... did anything in particular prompt it? --Marcinjeske (talk) 04:13, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
- I saw your edits to Star Trek: First Contact (which I have watchlisted) and noticed that your talk page was a red link. Just wanted to give you a proper welcome to the

Thanks for your help

Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
[edit]SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.
P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot (talk) 21:18, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
HollywoodChicago.com article
[edit]This link works to the huge article on HollywoodChicago.com by The Movie Fanatic. Isn't that exactly what you're looking for? That's a huge, third-party profile on the publication. This, by the way, is reference to the discussion from here. --216.177.119.154 (talk) 18:39, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
- There's a reply here that's awaiting a response. --216.177.119.154 (talk) 17:06, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
- I just checked and the whole article is gone with no explanation. I thought we were making progress on improving this? What can be done here? Just deleting it outright like this doesn't seem right. --68.72.135.94 (talk) 16:30, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
I have been offline taking care of my taxes.... let's see.... checking the page... there is a clear explanation:
Notice: You are re-creating a page that was deleted. You should consider whether it is appropriate to continue editing this page. Information is available on what to do if a page you created is deleted. The deletion log for this page is provided here for convenience: 00:53, 16 April 2008 Athaenara (Talk | contribs) deleted "HollywoodChicago.com" Per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/HollywoodChicago.com consensus. 11:38, 16 October 2007 Mailer diablo (Talk | contribs) deleted "HollywoodChicago.com" Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/HollywoodChicago.com 17:57, 3 May 2007 TwinsMetsFan (Talk | contribs) deleted "HollywoodChicago.com" (content was: 'db-web Run by Chicago journalist, editor and publisher Adam Fendelman, HollywoodChicago.com publishes original f...')
- I do note however, that under some cases a reader does not see this information... which could be why you did not notice... I will bring the issue of including the information for all readers up to the proper persons.
Translation: a Wikipedia administrator came along and deleted based on the current state of the article, expected future potential, the discussion available, and the past history of the article. Really, the best thing that supporters of HC.com can do is focus on HC.com and stop trying to create Wikipedia entries. If you put your energy into making HC.com a great site, eventually notability of the site will naturally evolve, solid reliable third-party sources will appear, and people completely disconnected with HC.com will write the article. That is how Wikipedia works.
68.72.135.94 is a DSL connection at chcgil.ameritech.net which is a Chicago ISP 216.177.119.154 is at anet.com which is ANet Internet Services in Naperville, IL
Let someone is not a fan of the site write the entry when it is time to right the entry, not prematurely. WP:RS says: "Articles should rely on reliable, third-party published sources with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy." My recommendation is to wait until you have these kinds of publications. Look at Mtvnews.com - that has barely enough references to support notability, and that is a giant compared to HC.com. - Perezhilton.com does not have its own entry, not notable enough on its own... it gets redirected to Perez Hilton, the site creator who has gotten a lot of coverage in the press Perez Hilton#References. --Marcinjeske (talk) 20:32, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
when placing prods
[edit]or other forms of deletion, please notify the person who originated the article. Not strictly required, but considered polite & almost everyone does it as a matter of course. DGG (talk) 19:29, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

First Contact
[edit]Hey, I responded to your comment on the talk page. First off, I apologise for any rudeness in my edit summary when I reverted your edit, I think I was still half asleep, saw the sub-sections, and reverted, without thinking much about my tact! Anyway, although I think sub-sections are uneeded, I'm all for re-writing the section. I agree it really needs some better prose, and I'm by no means a quality writer. If you can make it as compelling and unconfusing then that'd be great. Also, I did remove the cast names from the Plot. I know the film MOS excepts them, but I think the general opinion, and also my own, is that is there is a cast section present as well, then it is pointless to include them in the plot. Although, of course I'm open to discussion in this matter. Anyway, good luck re-writing! Gran2 14:46, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
- Well the article has been put on GA hold, with the main problem being the length of the plot section, any idea on what we should cut? Gran2 05:45, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
Stone of Folly
[edit]Oh, there was a film about it! You learn something evey day huh! Thanks for the profanity removal, I have no idea where to source this though. I'm sure it'll be fine as a stub until I can find anything. Hex ten (talk) 21:17, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
Contract
[edit]Hi. To be honest, I had not looked at the history and was not aware that the two self-links I was undoing had been created so recently; I just happened to stumble upon them. I think I have an idea what "Contract law" and "legally binding" mean, but I'm not a legal expert and I don't know what subtle or non-subtle differences there are in various legal systems, and I also would not know what the good sources are in this area, so I'm not the right person to add definitions for these terms. --Lambiam 18:12, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
Re: Block on Shapiros10
[edit]The CU was not filled at RFCU, but you can find the results at WP:ANI#Shapiros10.C2.A0.28talk.C2.A0.C2.B7_contribs.29_sockpuppetry. I didn't block all the accounts there (but I see that Shapiros10 was blocked afterwards by an other administrator). -- lucasbfr talk 11:32, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for the laugh!
[edit]Your edit summary "Nostradamus predicted the future state of this disambiguation page - was he wrong?" at Nostradamus made me laugh - thanks! -- Natalya 11:33, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
My hatnote update at Nostradamus
[edit]It wasn't a question of notability when I performed this edit. I believe someone can easily mis-type the word, arrive at a "strange" page and become confused, hence, the purpose of the hat (see the ones at Yamucha and Yum cha). Want another? Try Rogue and Rouge. Or Salon and Saloon, etc. Point being, I see no harm in it. Thoughts? Please reply on your talk page, or on Talk:Nostradamus. Prefer keeping all discussions in one page.

Your response to my nomination for speedy deletion

Of course I get rather ruffled whenever that gender issue pops up, but I kind of figured that it was a mistake. Anyway, I'm actually alright with the whole occurence; nothing harmful in the longterm (if any term) came of it, so I think we can all shake hand over it and leave it behind.

ANI
[edit]My speedy deletion nomination for Ronald Greisacker has become controversial. Please review this ANI, [1] and please chime in if you have anything to add on that exchange between the two of us. I thought it was resolved successfully, but another is alleging that I am a censor. David in DC (talk) 23:26, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
- I can't really figure out who is accusing who of what – it seems like accusations are flying every which way. Since the ANI discussion does not seem to involve your actions at Ronald Griesacker, I do not really have anything to contribute. Feel free to ping me if that changes. I have responded to the frivolous message on Talk:Ronald Griesacker. Generally, I would suggest not giving them unnecessary fodder for the accusations - make calm observations and let other editors draw their own conclusions. --Marcinjeske (talk) 05:24, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
Abrided anime
[edit]The article on Abrided anime was deleted via PROD tag (see User talk:PbfoMIME). You recently listed this as an example of a good short article in a WP:VPP discussion I was reading. Just an FYI. -- Low Sea (talk) 12:54, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
- If you are referring to this [2]. I was actually using Abrided anime as an example of the kind of *bad* short article that people worry will get created under the doctrine of WP:inherent notability. All it was was a brief definition: "Abrided anime is a mock version of an abridged anime. Otherwise called as Abridged2 anime." which would be more suitable to mention in the article on anime (along with abridged anime) assuming the topics had third party sources to demonstrate notability. --Marcinjeske (talk) 05:51, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
- Ah.. I did misunderstand I guess. You said "Some of these examples are liable to get deleted... but take a look at" and the elipsis made me feel you were differentiating the following examples as one which were not likely to be deleted. Thanks for the clarification. -- Low Sea (talk) 16:15, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 17:36, 23 November 2015 (UTC)
Dear Wikipedian, you recently voted in the ArbCom election. Your username, along with around 155 other usernames of your fellow Wikipedians, was randomly selected from the 2000+ Wikipedians who voted this year, with the help of one of the election-commissioners. If you are willing, could you please participate (at your option either on-wiki via userspace or off-wiki via email) in an exit poll, and answer some questions about how you decided amongst the ArbCom candidates?
If you decide to participate in this exit poll, the statistical results will be published in the Signpost, an online newspaper with over 1000 Wikipedians among the readership. There are about twelve questions, which have alphanumerical answers; it should take you a few minutes to complete the exit poll questionnaire, and will help improve Wikipedia by giving future candidates information about what you think is important. This is only an unofficial survey, and will have no impact on your actual vote during this election, nor in any future election.
All questions are individually optional, and this entire exit poll itself is also entirely optional, though if you choose not to participate, I would appreciate a brief reply indicating why you decided not to take part (see Question Zero). Thanks for being a Wikipedian
The questionnaire
[edit]Dear Wikipedian, please fill out these questions -- at your option via usertalk or via email, see Detailed Instructions at the end of the twelve questions -- by putting the appropriate answer in the blanks provided. If you decide not to answer a question (all questions are optional), please put the reason down: "undecided" / "private information" / "prefer not to answer" / "question is not well-posed" / "other: please specify". Although the Signpost cannot guarantee that complex answers can be processed for publication, it will help us improve future exit polls, if you give us comments about why you could not answer specific questions.

Detailed Instructions: you are welcome to answer these questions via usertalk (easiest), or via email (for a modicum of privacy).

Processing of responses will be performed in batches of ten, prior to publication in the Signpost. GamerPro64 will be processing the email-based answers, and will strive to maintain the privacy of your answers (as well as your email address and the associated IP address typically found in the email-headers), though of course as a volunteer effort, we cannot legally guarantee that GamerPro64 will have a system free from computer virii, we cannot legally guarantee that GamerPro64 will resist hypothetical bribes offered by the KGB/NSA/MI6 to reveal your secrets, and we cannot legally guarantee that GamerPro64 will make no mistakes. If you choose to answer on-wiki, your answers will be visible to other Wikipedians. If you choose to answer via email, your answers will be sent unencrypted over the internet, and we will do our best to protect your privacy, but unencrypted email is inherently an improper mechanism for doing so. Sorry! :-) |
We do promise to try hard, not to make any mistakes, in the processing and presentation of your answers. If you have any questions or concerns, you may contact column-editor GamerPro64, copy-editor 75.108.94.227, or copy-editor Ryk72. Thanks for reading, and thanks for helping Wikipedia.
