Hey, I made another change to the text ... correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't see in the article that Nimoy talks about a strained relationship with the cast in the film, so I went with "Shatner's strained relationship with some of the cast members". Do you see anything else I should change? - Dank ( push to talk) 23:03, 22 May 2015 (UTC)

We are preparing to take a closer look at Featured articles promoted in 2004–2010 that may need a review. We started with a script-compiled list of older FAs that have not had a recent formal review. The next step is to prune the list by removing articles that are still actively maintained, up-to-date, and believed to meet current standards. We know that many of you personally maintain articles that you nominated, so we'd appreciate your help in winnowing the list where appropriate.
Please take a look at the sandbox list, check over the FAs listed by your name, and indicate on the sandbox talk page your assessment of their current status. Likewise, if you have taken on the maintenance of any listed FAs that were originally nominated by a departed editor, please indicate their status. BLPs should be given especially careful consideration.

Neelix, we've worked together for long enough that I don't think it's out of line to ask that you make any edits before TFA day, not on TFA day. I reverted because I don't agree on either point. The comment has a "parenthetical" feel to it, and a good way to clue readers to that is to use parentheses. And later in the article, I see "the viewer has no way to know who Brad is" ... if we don't know anything about him, then how do we know he's a hero? In a related article, it's made clearer that we don't know he's a hero. I already checked this out before TFA day. - Dank ( push to talk) 16:24, 13 June 2015 (UTC)

Hi there. I'm curious about your decline of the PROD of this article due to the fact that a speedy deletion has previously been declined. Since the threshold for an A7 deletion is significantly higher than the subject simply not being notable, I've never heard of a previous A7 decline being a reason that an article cannot be PRODed. In fact, I've often seen editors advised to take an article to AFD or PROD it when an A7 is declined. I've reread WP:PROD and I don't see anywhere that a previous declined speedy deletion precludes PROD. Obviously, you can contest or decline the PROD for any reason whatsoever and I'm not looking to argue that, I'm just curious if your only reason for declining the PROD was a policy that I can't seem to find. I'd like to make sure I'm on the right page in the future. Either way, I've gone ahead and taken the article to AFD instead. Cheers, Nick— Contact/ Contribs 04:30, 3 July 2015 (UTC)
Hi Neelix,
Thanks for your message. I don't think that copyright issue is a matter there, I never considered this when I did the revision. What I was thinking when I did so is whether the person shown in the picture that I removed and the person introduced in the article above are the same person. I was thinking that the evidence were in favour of my revision: either from a look at their appearances and the career history of An (born 1937, the same below. Nguyễn Văn An should be referred as An according to Vietnamese customs).
First, As given by Wikipedia and the CV given by the Communist Party of Vietnam (CPV), An was born in 1937. Hence by 1967 An should be 30 years old (it shouldn't be wrong). But what I see in the picture I remove is a man who seems to be in his middle or late years. Also to compare the picture above and the official portrait of Nguyen Van An by the CPV(shot in about year 2001), the appearance doesn't look alike.
Secondly, from here, what I get is the "Mr. Nguyen Van An at the lower house", and it was shot by the Dutch charges d'affaire in South Vietnam. North Vietnam never recognise South Vietnam, and I think North Vietnamese would have a chance to be in South Vietnam only if they joined the Vietcong guerilla. According to the official biography by CPV, An finished his study in Donetsk in 1967, then transferred to Hanoi to work in a working site for a electricity supplier. If so, is it possible for An to appear in South Vietnam? How come he is the man in the picture I removed?
Last point. The source of that picture doesn't provided adequate information on the tones of the name the person shown in the picture (not a surprise). Vietnamese is a tonal language, thus it is possible that their names are the same if all diacritics are removed, but different if diacritics are added.
Hope you will understand my rationale on this, though it may just be rebutted as it's just my original research.-- 春卷柯南 ( talk) 15:41, 3 July 2015 (UTC)
Do you have any objection if I remove {{ William Etty}}, which you've just created? Etty painted over 800 works, of which we only currently have articles on ten. Keeping this template will either give extreme undue weight to those few paintings on which I happen to have written articles (which are by no means his most significant), or create a huge and unsightly sea of redlinks which are unlikely ever to be filled. – iridescent 20:27, 3 July 2015 (UTC)

Hi, to my understanding, there's no need to move John Collier (painter) to John Collier (Pre-Raphaelite painter) when there's no other artist known primarily as a painter. Correct me if I'm wrong, but WP:NC says a title should be "no longer than necessary" to identify a subject and distinguish itself from other subjects. So adding "Pre-Raphaelite" seems to a redundant extra descriptor. It would only make sense to disambiguate it like that if there were multiple people with that name known primarily for painting, but there is not. John Collier (caricaturist) might have done some illustrations in paintings, but he's not primarily known as a painter. Paintings seem to be just one format amongst others that he may have done his illustrations, but he's described by the Oxford DNB as a satirist and caricaturist, not a painter.

Hello Neelix,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Waggish for deletion, because it seems to be inappropriate for a variety of reasons.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Mr RD ( talk) 08:55, 10 August 2015 (UTC)
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Waggish requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about something invented/coined/discovered by the article's creator or someone they know personally, and it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. Cahk ( talk) 09:08, 10 August 2015 (UTC)

I'd like to make sure I'm on the right page in the future. Either way, I've gone ahead and taken the article to AFD instead. Cheers, Nick— Contact/ Contribs 04:30, 3 July 2015 (UTC)
Hi Neelix,
Thanks for your message. I don't think that copyright issue is a matter there, I never considered this when I did the revision. What I was thinking when I did so is whether the person shown in the picture that I removed and the person introduced in the article above are the same person. I was thinking that the evidence were in favour of my revision: either from a look at their appearances and the career history of An (born 1937, the same below. Nguyễn Văn An should be referred as An according to Vietnamese customs).
First, As given by Wikipedia and the CV given by the Communist Party of Vietnam (CPV), An was born in 1937. Hence by 1967 An should be 30 years old (it shouldn't be wrong). But what I see in the picture I remove is a man who seems to be in his middle or late years. Also to compare the picture above and the official portrait of Nguyen Van An by the CPV(shot in about year 2001), the appearance doesn't look alike.
Secondly, from here, what I get is the "Mr. Nguyen Van An at the lower house", and it was shot by the Dutch charges d'affaire in South Vietnam. North Vietnam never recognise South Vietnam, and I think North Vietnamese would have a chance to be in South Vietnam only if they joined the Vietcong guerilla. According to the official biography by CPV, An finished his study in Donetsk in 1967, then transferred to Hanoi to work in a working site for a electricity supplier. If so, is it possible for An to appear in South Vietnam? How come he is the man in the picture I removed?
Last point. The source of that picture doesn't provided adequate information on the tones of the name the person shown in the picture (not a surprise). Vietnamese is a tonal language, thus it is possible that their names are the same if all diacritics are removed, but different if diacritics are added.
Hope you will understand my rationale on this, though it may just be rebutted as it's just my original research.-- 春卷柯南 ( talk) 15:41, 3 July 2015 (UTC)
Do you have any objection if I remove {{ William Etty}}, which you've just created? Etty painted over 800 works, of which we only currently have articles on ten. Keeping this template will either give extreme undue weight to those few paintings on which I happen to have written articles (which are by no means his most significant), or create a huge and unsightly sea of redlinks which are unlikely ever to be filled. – iridescent 20:27, 3 July 2015 (UTC)
I finally got round to looking at this, and for various reasons I don't think it's an article I want to review. Fell free to ping me next time you have an FAC up though, and good luck with this one Jimfbleak - talk to me? 12:25, 11 July 2015 (UTC)
Neelix, I just noticed it was promoted, congratulations! And I see that it will be on the main page soon! What a trial it was, I imagine, but you kept your head as always and persevered. Best wishes, Prhartcom ( talk) 04:43, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

Hello again Neelix!
Thank you again for your earlier assistance and guidance on editing Belden (electronics company). I have since submitted another edit and was hoping you wouldn't mind reviewing due to a COI.
I appreciate any help you're able to offer! Thanks, MikefromStanding ( talk) 21:25, 12 July 2015 (UTC)

Hi, to my understanding, there's no need to move John Collier (painter) to John Collier (Pre-Raphaelite painter) when there's no other artist known primarily as a painter. Correct me if I'm wrong, but WP:NC says a title should be "no longer than necessary" to identify a subject and distinguish itself from other subjects. So adding "Pre-Raphaelite" seems to a redundant extra descriptor. It would only make sense to disambiguate it like that if there were multiple people with that name known primarily for painting, but there is not. John Collier (caricaturist) might have done some illustrations in paintings, but he's not primarily known as a painter. Paintings seem to be just one format amongst others that he may have done his illustrations, but he's described by the Oxford DNB as a satirist and caricaturist, not a painter.

I see that you had moved some Chile articles earlier, they've been moved elsewhere by Tobias Conradi, see this discussion at AN.

Hello, Neelix. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, Accost, for deletion because I don't think it meets our criteria for inclusion. If you don't want the article deleted:
{{proposed deletion/dated...}}
Also, be sure to explain why you think the article should be kept in your edit summary or on the article's talk page. If you don't do so, it may be deleted later anyway.

I′ve tried to extract part about the 1978 series of the article into a new one like you did it with the 1989 Batman series before.
