That both Mario Payne and Copperman were the same editor, both socks of David Beals? Payne was reverting Copperman, but that's not unusual, and Copperman's posts, particularly on talk page, should have been reverted. Article pages are different, although anyone reinstating a sock edit is then responsible for that edit. Dougweller ( talk) 11:35, 22 May 2015 (UTC)
Hello ever-helpful Wikipedian! I thought you may be interested to know that I've blocked this IP.

Hi MarnetteD -
Sorry for marking my edit as 'minor'; I meant to click 'watch' and hit the wrong button. About the gross edit, is there a problem if I cut it down and reinsert it? I opine that the original plot missed out some key details, as well as being terse enough to be slightly misleading; especially in the second last paragraph of the summary. Thanks, De la Marck ( talk) 22:40, 26 May 2015 (UTC)

Listen MarnetteD, I know that you already told me never to reply to your talk page ever again. But the reason why I'm replying is because I made the Allwine article a lot better now, and I made it look like just like the way you want it too bee. So, as of all that it goes now, I actually get what you mean now. I just couldn't understand of all this confusion I've been having with this for a month, and I'm also sorry if I got all aggravated with it, and I also apologize for calling you "crazy" too, I'm sorry, I really didn't mean too say that to you.

Hi MarnetteD! Hope you are well. I have been off Wikipedia a lot lately, but thought of you today and wondered what you were up to. I see you still keep an eye on the George Harrison article.
I was also wondering if you wanted to review any of the articles I have made available to be reviewed for GA. It would be good to work with you again. If you are interested, go to Wikipedia:Good article nominations and search for my username. I have two left still needing to be reviewed by a good reviewer (I wrote both of them from scratch). If you are not interested, that's okay too, I'm just throwing it out there. Cheers. Prhartcom ( talk) 17:18, 4 June 2015 (UTC)

Morning MD. Not sure if you've seen this but highly recommended. A masterpiece. Really special, it's like a dream. Gave me chills in many parts, spiritually very powerful. It's stolen the crown as the best film of 1967 and hit my top ten list! If you think how many great films were made during the Czech new Wave too and Czech film critics thought Marketa the best of them all! I urge you to get on Criterion DVD! ♦ Dr. Blofeld 09:15, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
Have you seen it User:Vejvančický?♦ Dr. Blofeld 10:23, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
A review on Amazon: "If you can imagine a cross between Tarkovsky's Andrei Rublev and Leone's Once Upon A Time In The West (all made within a year of each other), you might have a notion of what Vlacil's Marketa Lazerova is like. Throw in a dash of Bergman's Virgin Spring, and you're almost there. Named by Czech critics as the best Czech film of all time, Marketa Lazerova is a poetic social critique/examination of human kind, in particular when operating outside the confines of "civilization."♦ Dr. Blofeld 12:01, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
An excellent article here.♦ Dr. Blofeld 14:11, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
The amazing thing about it is that you feel like you've literally gone back into medieval times in watching it. I suppose Rublev is the closest comparison, but there's similarities to certain Bergman films, reminded me of Dersu Uzala in parts too. It's one of those films which us film buffs are constantly trying to find in exploring world cinema, but don't come along as good as that often, and it always comes as a surprise too, I mean I'd heard good things about Forman, but never heard of this director!♦ Dr. Blofeld 14:18, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
Glauber Rocha is quite a scary director, unsettling to watch his films at times! Not in the "horror" "scary" sense, but because he's so intense, some scenes at times are a bit too dynamic/politically manic for comfort.♦ Dr. Blofeld 16:39, 8 July 2015 (UTC)

I understand and appreciate why you reverted my edits and I shall leave the page that way. I was brash in restoring them after user:Mezigue rightly undid them the first time.
That said, however, I feel your comments regarding my edits are denigrating - "I think this editor would be happier editing at the TARDIS wikia". I find this comment patronising in the extreme and demonstrative of a perceived superiority.
I believe Wikipedia policy is to comment on the quality of the edits not the user. It is not for you to say where and what I edit, please kindly refrain from doing so.
I'm sorry that I breached my promise not to post here again. However, I was extremely affronted by your comments and felt I had to address them, should you comment like that again, whether against me or another editor.
I am sure you meant no offence, I mean none now and hope you have not taken any. I am deeply sorry if you have.

Various sources, including this review from the Spaghetti Western Database ( http://www.spaghetti-western.net/index.php/Django_Review_(Scherpschutter), Alex Cox's essays on Spaghetti Westerns (10,000 Ways to Die) and interviews with Franco Nero confirm that Django was indeed (albeit loosely) based on Yojimbo - in fact, in Japan, Django was, like A Fistful of Dollars, retitled to explicitly present it as a Yojimbo remake. I'm not as certain about Sukiyaki Western Django, partly because I haven't seen it. What do you say anout all this? PatTheMoron ( talk) 12:50, 26 July 2015 (UTC)
I can most probably rely on the sources cited in the review, especially since the Mario Gusti (I think his name is) book is apparently a sort of Bible for SW fans. In the interview on Blue Underground's DVD, Nero states that Corbucci was not only influenced by Yojimbo, he was trying to incorporate Kurosawa's sense of black humor. As a side note, Django was distributed in Japan by Toho-Towa, which distributed AFOD on behalf of Kurosawa after he won a copyright claim against Sergio Leone. Its Japanese title not only presents Django as a Yojimbo remake, but as a sequel to AFOD! FAFDM, GBU and DYS were instead released by United Artists in Japan. PatTheMoron ( talk) 01:46, 27 July 2015 (UTC)
I've put the relevant info and citations in the articles, but Template:Yojimbo also includes Sukiyaki Western Django. Is that okay? PatTheMoron ( talk) 02:32, 27 July 2015 (UTC)

Hi. Hate to bug you, but could you do me a favor and take a look at something. Don't know what else to do at this point. Feel free to leave any comments/suggestions there. Thanks. Think I'll invite Gareth Griffith-Jones as well. Again, thanks. Onel5969 TT me 01:35, 2 July 2015 (UTC)
What the hell? I've tried AIV but no response yet. What a waste of time. Thanks for your vigilance. DBaK ( talk) 01:21, 5 July 2015 (UTC)
I agree with this. Hope you have a great week! — | Gareth Griffith-Jones | The Welsh Buzzard| — 06:44, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
You mentioned the injuries factor above. This is bad news. — | Gareth Griffith-Jones | The Welsh Buzzard| — 11:32, 17 July 2015 (UTC)
Morning MD. Not sure if you've seen this but highly recommended. A masterpiece. Really special, it's like a dream. Gave me chills in many parts, spiritually very powerful. It's stolen the crown as the best film of 1967 and hit my top ten list! If you think how many great films were made during the Czech new Wave too and Czech film critics thought Marketa the best of them all! I urge you to get on Criterion DVD! ♦ Dr. Blofeld 09:15, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
Have you seen it User:Vejvančický?♦ Dr. Blofeld 10:23, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
A review on Amazon: "If you can imagine a cross between Tarkovsky's Andrei Rublev and Leone's Once Upon A Time In The West (all made within a year of each other), you might have a notion of what Vlacil's Marketa Lazerova is like. Throw in a dash of Bergman's Virgin Spring, and you're almost there. Named by Czech critics as the best Czech film of all time, Marketa Lazerova is a poetic social critique/examination of human kind, in particular when operating outside the confines of "civilization."♦ Dr. Blofeld 12:01, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
An excellent article here.♦ Dr. Blofeld 14:11, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
The amazing thing about it is that you feel like you've literally gone back into medieval times in watching it. I suppose Rublev is the closest comparison, but there's similarities to certain Bergman films, reminded me of Dersu Uzala in parts too. It's one of those films which us film buffs are constantly trying to find in exploring world cinema, but don't come along as good as that often, and it always comes as a surprise too, I mean I'd heard good things about Forman, but never heard of this director!♦ Dr. Blofeld 14:18, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
Glauber Rocha is quite a scary director, unsettling to watch his films at times! Not in the "horror" "scary" sense, but because he's so intense, some scenes at times are a bit too dynamic/politically manic for comfort.♦ Dr. Blofeld 16:39, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
Looks like he WP:DIVA'd into retirement. (He'll be back.) BMK ( talk) 18:56, 11 July 2015 (UTC)
Yeah I noticed. WikiP is so terrible. Yet everyone still uses it and wants to put whatever stuff they want to on it. Cheers again E. MarnetteD| Talk 22:28, 11 July 2015 (UTC)
Watch this. This is a test.
I see you've seen the re-retirement. Or is it the re-re-re-retirement? It's weird that they haven't figured out the concept of just not logging on to Wikipedia. Or (horrors!) not turning on the computer. I'm sure this one will last as long as the other ones. Perhaps we'll be pleasantly surprised. Yep, and monkeys may fly out of my... but enough of that. Cheers. ;) --‖ Ebyabe talk - State of the Union ‖ 22:29, 13 July 2015 (UTC)
They're back. I reported them for vandalism, and they deleted my report. Looks like it's gettin', gettin' gettin' kinda heavy. :) --‖ Ebyabe talk - Border Town ‖ 03:32, 17 July 2015 (UTC)
I understand and appreciate why you reverted my edits and I shall leave the page that way. I was brash in restoring them after user:Mezigue rightly undid them the first time.
That said, however, I feel your comments regarding my edits are denigrating - "I think this editor would be happier editing at the TARDIS wikia". I find this comment patronising in the extreme and demonstrative of a perceived superiority.
I believe Wikipedia policy is to comment on the quality of the edits not the user. It is not for you to say where and what I edit, please kindly refrain from doing so.
I'm sorry that I breached my promise not to post here again. However, I was extremely affronted by your comments and felt I had to address them, should you comment like that again, whether against me or another editor.
I am sure you meant no offence, I mean none now and hope you have not taken any. I am deeply sorry if you have.
Kind regards, Gothaparduskerialldrapolatkh ( talk) 14:57, 13 July 2015 (UTC)
Thanks for helping Buddy see what he did wrong. I tend to be very straightforward and that sometimes is off-putting. You apparently read my analysis of the AfD close at Buddy's talk page. Do you find that accurate? Thanks for your help. John from Idegon ( talk) 21:37, 13 July 2015 (UTC)
Why did you take the photo off? Since you have artwork that says "Ignore All Rules" on your Talk page I can only assume you're being misanthropic rather than encyclopedic.-- A21sauce ( talk) 23:52, 13 July 2015 (UTC)
Have you been a bad boy again? Big meanie, taking down that utterly non-description image! Drmargi ( talk) 21:24, 16 July 2015 (UTC)
I know what I am inserting are only reliable sources. And if you find the source unreliable, simply add citation needed after it. Those who can find better sources can add them. Why are you simply removing the edits ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 14.98.226.45 ( talk) 19:39, 14 July 2015 (UTC)
Here is the sock protection Been awhile. Cheers Ping me with {{ u|Jim1138}} and sign "~~~~" or message me on my talk page. 17:57, 15 July 2015 (UTC)
Thanks for the change in my sandbox. I copy-pasted the article (from Italy). I did not mean to prevent others from changing it. I prefer to work on them in the sandbox for a "peace and quiet" atmosphere until it reaches a stage that requires input from other contributors. Regards.-- MarshalN20 Talk 20:30, 15 July 2015 (UTC)
You may be already seeing this, but User:TheSimpsons98 is editing in a suspiciously familiar style. We shall see what we shall see. :) --‖ Ebyabe talk - Border Town ‖ 23:33, 23 July 2015 (UTC)
I already mentioned on Favonian's talk page that I'm not the user you guy's are looking for, and neither is "WikipediaGuy", since I've started this week, I have a whole lot of respect for you guy's, really I do. But I'm still learning things when I edit, and I'm still reading wikipedia's rules and source information of what to do next when i edit some articles information. TheSimpsons98 ( talk) 23:39, 23 July 2015 (UTC)
Really? TheSimpsons98 ( talk) 23:57, 23 July 2015 (UTC)
I shouldn't fail, because I'm not that user, I don't know anything about that user at all. I just don't understand it. TheSimpsons98 ( talk) 01:07, 24 July 2015 (UTC)
Ok? TheSimpsons98 ( talk) 02:02, 24 July 2015 (UTC)
Ebyabe, BMK and Drmargi If you haven't seen the news yet the SPI showed that they all were socks of FF2. Good work everyone. MarnetteD| Talk 05:00, 26 July 2015 (UTC)
Well that was fun. Let's hope the rest of this weekend is also similarly... interesting? ;) --‖ Ebyabe talk - State of the Union ‖ 16:00, 25 July 2015 (UTC)

Good morning M!
Last night I saw a trailer on BBC One for "a new series of
Ripper Street, starting on Friday at nine o'clock" — great news, but surprising, considering their previous announcement that there would be no more at the end of the second series.
Have a lovely Sunday! It is very wet here.

Various sources, including this review from the Spaghetti Western Database ( http://www.spaghetti-western.net/index.php/Django_Review_(Scherpschutter), Alex Cox's essays on Spaghetti Westerns (10,000 Ways to Die) and interviews with Franco Nero confirm that Django was indeed (albeit loosely) based on Yojimbo - in fact, in Japan, Django was, like A Fistful of Dollars, retitled to explicitly present it as a Yojimbo remake. I'm not as certain about Sukiyaki Western Django, partly because I haven't seen it. What do you say anout all this? PatTheMoron ( talk) 12:50, 26 July 2015 (UTC)
I can most probably rely on the sources cited in the review, especially since the Mario Gusti (I think his name is) book is apparently a sort of Bible for SW fans. In the interview on Blue Underground's DVD, Nero states that Corbucci was not only influenced by Yojimbo, he was trying to incorporate Kurosawa's sense of black humor. As a side note, Django was distributed in Japan by Toho-Towa, which distributed AFOD on behalf of Kurosawa after he won a copyright claim against Sergio Leone. Its Japanese title not only presents Django as a Yojimbo remake, but as a sequel to AFOD! FAFDM, GBU and DYS were instead released by United Artists in Japan. PatTheMoron ( talk) 01:46, 27 July 2015 (UTC)
I've put the relevant info and citations in the articles, but Template:Yojimbo also includes Sukiyaki Western Django. Is that okay? PatTheMoron ( talk) 02:32, 27 July 2015 (UTC)
