This is Detnchris14, but I re-edited Pair Of Kings, and I put Mitchel Musso's final appearance in there, becuase it is true. The last episode of season 2, "The Evil King" proves that it's his last appearance as a main character (Brady) in that finale. In the Season 3, Part 1 episode, Brady only makes a cameo appearance, making it Mitchel's last and FINAL appearance in the series, because of his DUI in real life. please keep that edit, and I kept that one edit the same: "First Appearance: Adam Hicks as Boz." I just had to remove the "last appearance: Mitchel Musso as Brady" because it has already been said in the season 2 finale by someone else. it says: "Note: Last appearance of Brady as a main character." It's true. Ok, so will you keep that "Mitchel Musso's final appearance" in the season 3 episode, The New King, Part 1: Destiny's Child?" — Preceding unsigned comment added by Detnchris14 ( talk • contribs) 14:04, 28 January 2013 (UTC)

Honestly, I think I'm going to go live on a desert island. Between the ISO number mania, "on (date) it was announced" and "#th and final season" hackneyed phrasing, and more, I'm about ready to throw in the towel. What ever happened to remembering the central purpose of all this? I swear, we're becoming a community of adolescent automatons. I've started calling stuff like the article splits and the ISO numbers (and the No/# jazz a while back) the "lemming effect". See someone do it, don't think, just keep doing it. -- Drmargi ( talk) 03:03, 30 January 2013 (UTC)
You're a braver man than I am; I'd sweep out that whole game section with a very stiff broom but we know that's an invitation to an edit war. Oh, and I wish you luck keeping that ordering of the presenters of Top Gear in place. I know it's correct; I'm just not sure much of anyone else is going to give a damn. I'm afraid I'm in the camp that thinks cast should drop down to the end of the list once they leave, and I'm very much in the avoiding in-universe writing camp as a rule. Contradictory, I know, and decidedly not the hill I want to die on. I'm just getting wearier and wearier of editors who show up with an agenda and stir the pot, with not the slightest concern for prevailing practices and not a clue they're editing something far removed from a fan website. Good luck with that, eh? -- Drmargi ( talk) 13:54, 31 January 2013 (UTC)

Hey, Aussie, when you get a minute, would you take a peek at the little drama over the placement of the key on the elimination table for The Taste? We've got an IP editor who's been around for about 10 days and is clearly a blocked registered editor rather aggressively attempting to keep the key at the top of the table, which doesn't align with other comparable tables (i.e. Top Chef, Next Food Network Star, etc.), citing a very different table from X-Factor. What really worries me is how aggressive the editor is; he/she has already threatened me with a claim of harassment (major over-reaction, major misapplication of the principle.) I am so weary of the table fiends who contribute nothing to articles except pretty colored tables, then edit war when their work is challenged. -- Drmargi ( talk) 20:51, 8 February 2013 (UTC)

The User Who put up February 2nd did not read the facebook page correctly or even the main Carlos page. The new Bakery was going to open on the 9th, but do to the snow storm in the North they moved it to the 10th. They added the second intead. Just scrooll down and you will see it. Also another note Facebook doesn't allow you to put in an opening date. So the page preformed as it was opened.

Hello. I just wanted to clarify that I didn't add cbsncis.wetpaint.com as a citation to the Ziva David article; it was already there. I did, though, attach the link to other statements in the article needing sources. I had assumed, because it was already in use, that it was accepted as a citation.

If you are going to make completely unnecessary edits such as this one you should take care to fix every single redirect to the list article that depended on using easily accessible characters, such as this one. There seem to be over 200 redirects that you broke with that one edit. This kind of thing is the reason that the insistence on using en-dashes is destructive and disruptive. I would encourage you to simply undo your original edit and refrain from doing any such edits in the future.— Kww( talk) 20:56, 2 March 2013 (UTC)

I could be asking the wrong person this. But as you were the last person to edit the template, I figured you'd have some knowledge of my problem. Recently I've been upgrading the userboxes of several highway articles such as; Brooker Highway, Midland Highway, Bass Highway, Tasman Highway and several others. However I can't seem to get the state parameter working. I view Wikipedia via Internet explorer - could that be the problem? Or have I simply not completed the parameter properly?

For spotting the error - I was trying to ascertain the intent of the tagging with Use British english as being a way of either excluding or 'closing down' Use Australylian - I hadnt realised that the tagging is/was a parellel tagging basically with the intent of intrinsically preventing American usage on such items (never very clear, but I think the the basic intent) - and in the heat of the moment I was suggesting that by using British it was excluding Australian... It now seems that the parellel universes are the end result - a bit incongruous, and somewhat confusing to the average punter - but nevertheless a 'hidden'ccategory to boot sats 07:40, 26 March 2013 (UTC)
The split lovers have been at Person of Interest again, this time doing a half baked job of splitting off season 1.

Heya, I saw this recent edit of yours at The Fairly OddParents (season 9). I noticed you'd used the {{Start date}} tag (or is it template?) and I was hoping to get further clarification on its use since I'm still learning. I was under the impression that the {{Start date}}/{{End date}}/{{Birth date}} templates were solely for infoboxes. I know they're definitely not for prose (right?) Is there a good rule of thumb I could follow? Thanks! Cyphoidbomb ( talk) 17:47, 24 April 2013 (UTC)
{{Start date}}
is used for the first air date in a season, while {{End date}}
is used for the last. When there is only one date, such as the air date for an episode, only {{Start date}}
is used. An important rule is only to use one of each per table row, using either twice can cause errors. --

Thanks for the little flood in my watch list. Your edit summary indicates a fundamental misunderstanding. They are not continuity issues. They are noting recurring themes with the characters.

Hi Aussie Legend Thanks for your message and support. It's true I did make an honest mistake, getting mixed up between a users talk page and user page. It was totally unintentional, but qwerty's attitude pretty much spoiled my day as I felt he was unduly harsh on a fairly recent newcomer who still has loads to learn. I looked at his own talk page and saw that I wasn't exactly the first person who'd been on the sharp end of his lash. I just want everyone to get along. So thanks again for your message, it does go a long way towards making a newcomer feel he is not a total wally.

This is about the notice on the Good Cop, Bad Cop (NCIS) article. I think the 200 to 500 word length may be a recommendation, not necessarily a rule.

In my edits of List of The Big Bang Theory characters, I accidentally removed the second paragraph that you have since restored. That was not intentional. As for the the tags, they can be removed once an issue is resolved.

I was the user who you reverted an edit regarding the shift of production from New Zealand to Australia upon closure of the plant in Auckland, pointing out that the final decision was to import from Australia rather than China due to food safety concerns.
This was local knowledge at the time and it's apparent that due to the timeframe involved (mid 2000's), there are presently no live online citations currently available - the nearest I have found indicating Kraft's line of thinking at the time is found in the following commentary which supports the Chinese production intentions, but other than in comment does not reflect the public backlash that resulted in the final decision to import from Australia regarding the closure of the New Zealand operations.

Sadly, Stefan2's assessment of the image is correct. As an unpublished image it's not PD in the US, the only ways to prevent is being deleted are a) add a fair use rationale (but meeting NFCC8 needs to be addressed in the article), b) see if the photo does have a known author and find out when they died or c) check if it has ever been published and if so when.

Hey AussieLegend
I'm sending you this because you've made quite a few edits to the template namespace in the past couple of months. If I've got this wrong, or if I haven't but you're not interested in my request, don't worry; this is the only notice I'm sending out on the subject :).
So, as you know (or should know - we sent out a centralnotice and several watchlist notices) we're planning to deploy the VisualEditor on Monday, 1 July, as the default editor. For those of us who prefer markup editing, fear not; we'll still be able to use the markup editor, which isn't going anywhere.
What's important here, though, is that the VisualEditor features an interactive template inspector; you click an icon on a template and it shows you the parameters, the contents of those fields, and human-readable parameter names, along with descriptions of what each parameter does. Personally, I find this pretty awesome, and from Monday it's going to be heavily used, since, as said, the VisualEditor will become the default.
The thing that generates the human-readable names and descriptions is a small JSON data structure, loaded through an extension called TemplateData. I'm reaching out to you in the hopes that you'd be willing and able to put some time into adding TemplateData to high-profile templates. It's pretty easy to understand (heck, if I can write it, anyone can) and you can find a guide here, along with a list of prominent templates, although I suspect we can all hazard a guess as to high-profile templates that would benefit from this. Hopefully you're willing to give it a try; the more TemplateData sections get added, the better the interface can be. If you run into any problems, drop a note on the Feedback page.

This is Detnchris14, but I re-edited Pair Of Kings, and I put Mitchel Musso's final appearance in there, becuase it is true. The last episode of season 2, "The Evil King" proves that it's his last appearance as a main character (Brady) in that finale. In the Season 3, Part 1 episode, Brady only makes a cameo appearance, making it Mitchel's last and FINAL appearance in the series, because of his DUI in real life. please keep that edit, and I kept that one edit the same: "First Appearance: Adam Hicks as Boz." I just had to remove the "last appearance: Mitchel Musso as Brady" because it has already been said in the season 2 finale by someone else. it says: "Note: Last appearance of Brady as a main character." It's true. Ok, so will you keep that "Mitchel Musso's final appearance" in the season 3 episode, The New King, Part 1: Destiny's Child?" — Preceding unsigned comment added by Detnchris14 ( talk • contribs) 14:04, 28 January 2013 (UTC)

Honestly, I think I'm going to go live on a desert island. Between the ISO number mania, "on (date) it was announced" and "#th and final season" hackneyed phrasing, and more, I'm about ready to throw in the towel. What ever happened to remembering the central purpose of all this? I swear, we're becoming a community of adolescent automatons. I've started calling stuff like the article splits and the ISO numbers (and the No/# jazz a while back) the "lemming effect". See someone do it, don't think, just keep doing it. -- Drmargi ( talk) 03:03, 30 January 2013 (UTC)
You're a braver man than I am; I'd sweep out that whole game section with a very stiff broom but we know that's an invitation to an edit war. Oh, and I wish you luck keeping that ordering of the presenters of Top Gear in place. I know it's correct; I'm just not sure much of anyone else is going to give a damn. I'm afraid I'm in the camp that thinks cast should drop down to the end of the list once they leave, and I'm very much in the avoiding in-universe writing camp as a rule. Contradictory, I know, and decidedly not the hill I want to die on. I'm just getting wearier and wearier of editors who show up with an agenda and stir the pot, with not the slightest concern for prevailing practices and not a clue they're editing something far removed from a fan website.

Hey, Aussie, when you get a minute, would you take a peek at the little drama over the placement of the key on the elimination table for The Taste? We've got an IP editor who's been around for about 10 days and is clearly a blocked registered editor rather aggressively attempting to keep the key at the top of the table, which doesn't align with other comparable tables (i.e. Top Chef, Next Food Network Star, etc.), citing a very different table from X-Factor. What really worries me is how aggressive the editor is; he/she has already threatened me with a claim of harassment (major over-reaction, major misapplication of the principle.) I am so weary of the table fiends who contribute nothing to articles except pretty colored tables, then edit war when their work is challenged. -- Drmargi ( talk) 20:51, 8 February 2013 (UTC)

Hello. I just wanted to clarify that I didn't add cbsncis.wetpaint.com as a citation to the Ziva David article; it was already there. I did, though, attach the link to other statements in the article needing sources. I had assumed, because it was already in use, that it was accepted as a citation.

I could be asking the wrong person this. But as you were the last person to edit the template, I figured you'd have some knowledge of my problem. Recently I've been upgrading the userboxes of several highway articles such as; Brooker Highway, Midland Highway, Bass Highway, Tasman Highway and several others. However I can't seem to get the state parameter working. I view Wikipedia via Internet explorer - could that be the problem? Or have I simply not completed the parameter properly?

For spotting the error - I was trying to ascertain the intent of the tagging with Use British english as being a way of either excluding or 'closing down' Use Australylian - I hadnt realised that the tagging is/was a parellel tagging basically with the intent of intrinsically preventing American usage on such items (never very clear, but I think the the basic intent) - and in the heat of the moment I was suggesting that by using British it was excluding Australian... It now seems that the parellel universes are the end result - a bit incongruous, and somewhat confusing to the average punter - but nevertheless a 'hidden'ccategory to boot sats 07:40, 26 March 2013 (UTC)

Heya, I saw this recent edit of yours at The Fairly OddParents (season 9). I noticed you'd used the {{Start date}} tag (or is it template?) and I was hoping to get further clarification on its use since I'm still learning. I was under the impression that the {{Start date}}/{{End date}}/{{Birth date}} templates were solely for infoboxes. I know they're definitely not for prose (right?) Is there a good rule of thumb I could follow? Thanks! Cyphoidbomb ( talk) 17:47, 24 April 2013 (UTC)
{{Start date}}
is used for the first air date in a season, while {{End date}}
is used for the last. When there is only one date, such as the air date for an episode, only {{Start date}}
is used. An important rule is only to use one of each per table row, using either twice can cause errors. --

Hi Aussie Legend Thanks for your message and support. It's true I did make an honest mistake, getting mixed up between a users talk page and user page. It was totally unintentional, but qwerty's attitude pretty much spoiled my day as I felt he was unduly harsh on a fairly recent newcomer who still has loads to learn. I looked at his own talk page and saw that I wasn't exactly the first person who'd been on the sharp end of his lash. I just want everyone to get along. So thanks again for your message, it does go a long way towards making a newcomer feel he is not a total wally.

I was the user who you reverted an edit regarding the shift of production from New Zealand to Australia upon closure of the plant in Auckland, pointing out that the final decision was to import from Australia rather than China due to food safety concerns.
This was local knowledge at the time and it's apparent that due to the timeframe involved (mid 2000's), there are presently no live online citations currently available - the nearest I have found indicating Kraft's line of thinking at the time is found in the following commentary which supports the Chinese production intentions, but other than in comment does not reflect the public backlash that resulted in the final decision to import from Australia regarding the closure of the New Zealand operations.

As an unpublished image it's not PD in the US, the only ways to prevent is being deleted are a) add a fair use rationale (but meeting NFCC8 needs to be addressed in the article), b) see if the photo does have a known author and find out when they died or c) check if it has ever been published and if so when.

Hmmmm. On the one hand,
what a masterful side step! But from a different angle, "What a pussy! Why didn't you hang out for 'gaol'?" - Short answer: Because "prison" is a masterful sidestep, and gaol is an endless ongoing unresolvable conflict.
What a masterful side step! Well done!!

Hey AussieLegend
I'm sending you this because you've made quite a few edits to the template namespace in the past couple of months. If I've got this wrong, or if I haven't but you're not interested in my request, don't worry; this is the only notice I'm sending out on the subject :).
So, as you know (or should know - we sent out a centralnotice and several watchlist notices) we're planning to deploy the VisualEditor on Monday, 1 July, as the default editor. For those of us who prefer markup editing, fear not; we'll still be able to use the markup editor, which isn't going anywhere.
What's important here, though, is that the VisualEditor features an interactive template inspector; you click an icon on a template and it shows you the parameters, the contents of those fields, and human-readable parameter names, along with descriptions of what each parameter does. Personally, I find this pretty awesome, and from Monday it's going to be heavily used, since, as said, the VisualEditor will become the default.
The thing that generates the human-readable names and descriptions is a small JSON data structure, loaded through an extension called TemplateData. I'm reaching out to you in the hopes that you'd be willing and able to put some time into adding TemplateData to high-profile templates. It's pretty easy to understand (heck, if I can write it, anyone can) and you can find a guide here, along with a list of prominent templates, although I suspect we can all hazard a guess as to high-profile templates that would benefit from this. Hopefully you're willing to give it a try; the more TemplateData sections get added, the better the interface can be. If you run into any problems, drop a note on the Feedback page.
