This sounds silly from one stranger to another stranger.

Since I made that stupid error about the picture I've been keeping track. You seem upset, and I think I can see why.

You had it on permanent redirect protection to Cherish (band) because of the lack of sources at the time. However, that was two months ago, and now it is less than a week until the album's release date (which is May 13). Since then, I found its listing on Amazon.com. It features the cover, release date, tracklisting, and has samples to verify it. So now, I request an unprotection of the redirect, please. Tom Danson ( talk) 07:15, 7 May 2008 (UTC) reply

Thanks for uploading Image:All About Me.jpg. You've indicated that the image meets Wikipedia's criteria for non-free content, but there is no explanation of why it meets those criteria. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. If you have any questions, please post them at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions.

Thank you for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI ( talk) 23:15, 20 May 2008 (UTC) reply

Glacially, with a speed that makes the drift of continents seem like rapid transit, the wheels at the League of Copyeditors turn. I am reviewing this article. I see you are on a wiki-break. But when you return, drop a note on my talk page if you want to pitch it as a FAC again, and I will look at the copy again, just to ensure that it is tidy. Apologies for the delay, but LOCE is chronically understaffed. They've recently had a fresh infusion; I'm one of the new number. If I have any particular content questions, I'll pose them here, on the assumption that you will eventually return. Take care. Gosgood ( talk) 18:12, 17 June 2008 (UTC) reply

Glad to see you back editing. I thought U had left as your name was all redded out, and I just noticed you edited an article on my watch list. So anyway, seeing as you were the very first editor who was nice to me here all the way back in 2006, i'm really pleased you didnt leave for good.

Thank you to both of you for your kind comments. I took a wikibreak (I had intended leaving for good) for the same sort of phenomena as you, Redvers, talk about in your Commons essay. Specifically, it was over the Joking Apart FAC. I had written it from scratch, referenced it, supplied free images... and when it gets to FAC, I was humiliated and treat with such contempt for some grammatical issues. For those on Commons that have an intricate knowledge of the categories, then just fix it. For me, I don't want a patronising grammar lesson; if you possess admirable copyediting skills, then just fix the fucking thing. Wikipedia is a collaborative effort. Although my English is far from perfect, my work is usually an improvement on its previous state. I doubt I will ever bother getting an article up to a GA or FA standard again -- that is my 'lesson' in counter-productivity. The JPS ^{talk to me} 14:05, 18 September 2008 (UTC) reply

Hi, thanks for your note. Normally I reply in new sections, but having read the bit above I thought my reply belongs here :) I'm conscious that it might seem a little rude when I comment at WP:FAC but do not !vote. Recently I've started to read most FAC candidates, almost always find something that I can fix, and occasionally find an ambiguity that I raise as a comment, however despite rereading WP:FACR I don't yet feel qualified to judge on criteria 1a or usually 1b. But I absolutely share your editing philosophy; this is a collaborative effort where we all contribute as volunteers. A large part of my edits are fixing other people's typos, sometimes as when I searched Wikipedia for "ablums" I wind up fixing dozens of errors by the same editor, but I'd much rather they go on contributing and I swept up after them than say something that might upset them.

Still, these two interviews [1] [2] seem to just say "Is your Wikipedia article correct?", so at least we know the page is factually accurate!

Wikipedia is a collaborative project. If you possess admirable copyediting skills, that is great. However, it is inappropriate to discuss the work of others with such contempt (some established editors have that annoying habit). Perhaps the editors of the work you are commenting upon don't have English as a first language, or have not had a privileged education.

There needs to be a central place to discuss this and invite editors who have an issue. It came up on Shakespeare in Love, also. Regardless of what is written on the category page, it is redundant to put a film in the nominee and the winner categories. It also seems to me to be over-categorization.

Thank you for uploading Image:I'd Do Anything For Love - video screengrab.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion.

Hi,

There were several problems with the One Foot in the Grave article. Character description was too long for the page so a new one was created for this. The plot summary went off the point and into an episode synopsis of the first episode; it was also full of opinions and Wikipeda articles are suppose to be neutral. The plot summary is designed to summarise the key points, so there’s no need for over-the-top detail. Thank you. Edito*Magica ( talk) 19:18, 6 January 2009 (UTC) reply

I've replied on the discussion page. The JPS ^{talk to me} 19:20, 6 January 2009 (UTC) reply

Well i'm glad we've settled the issues in question. Edito*Magica ( talk) 00:29, 7 January 2009 (UTC) reply

Although most of the article is better suited to prose, a cast list is an exception because it's the best way of showing which actors play which characters. A majority of articles relating to comedy shows do use cast lists. Prose isn't always the best way of displaying information, that's way infoboxes are also used. And large amounts of text doesn't mean an article is good when the same information can be conveyed in much fewer words. So don't be alarmed if expression is sharpened to make the article more concise. I've shifted some of the information under the plot summary to a new, more relevant heading. For example, as with many other comedy articles of this kind, specific episode information has been placed under the "episode" heading. The final thing is that the character synopses make the article too long, and again many articles of this kind do use a separate page for character detail...i have done the same for this one to further improve the quality of the article.

  Length. It stays focused on the main topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style)".

The style guide also states:

• "What is and is not included as "readable prose":

"Readable prose" is the main body of the text, excluding sections such as:

• Footnotes and reference sections ("see also", "external links", footnotes, bibliography, etc)
• Diagrams and images
• Tables and lists
• Wikilinks and external URLs
• Formatting and mark-up.

An article longer than one or two pages when printed should be divided into sections to ease navigation (see the Manual of Style and Wikipedia:Layout for guidance). For most long articles, division into sections is natural anyway; but even if there is no "natural" way to split a long list or table, many editors believe that it should be done to allow easier navigation and per-section editing.

Readers may tire of reading a page much longer than about 30 to 50 KB, which roughly corresponds to 6,000 to 10,000 words of readable prose. If an article is significantly longer than that, it may benefit the reader to move some sections to other articles and replace them with summaries (see Wikipedia:Summary style).

One foot in the grave is at least over a page long:

An article longer than one or two pages when printed should be divided into sections to ease navigation' (see the Manual of Style and Wikipedia:Layout for guidance). For most long articles, division into sections is natural anyway; but even if there is no "natural" way to split a long list or table, many editors believe that it should be done to allow easier navigation and per-section editing.' Why are you so against sub-pages? Edito*Magica ( talk) 20:58, 7 January 2009 (UTC) reply

I haven't looked to find your examples yet, but the style guide clearly states that lists should be excluded from prose and pages one or two long should be divided into sub-pages. Why should One foot differ from Wikipedia's manual of style? Edito*Magica ( talk) 21:01, 7 January 2009 (UTC) reply

Well if you're implying all Wiki pages are over one or two pages, then they too need dividing up. One foot shouldn't copy other articles' mistakes. Edito*Magica ( talk) 21:05, 7 January 2009 (UTC) reply

It's far too time consuming to plough through all featured articles just to prove you wrong. Instead i choose two at random, Cold feet and Last of the Summer Wine. Both either feature cast lists or sub-pages for the character description, and i would find more if i looked. If featured articles use cast lists and sub-pages...so should one foot in the grave.

Well, on Cold feet under casting is a link to a sub-page. There you'll find a table with the cast in it. Last of the Summer Wine you'll a sub-page for characters. Edito*Magica ( talk) 21:21, 7 January 2009 (UTC) reply

Judging by The Brittas Empire page, after condensing the character description down, it seems fine on the main article. But One foot in the Grave has character description too lengthy to be on the same page, so i persist in it being moved to a sub-page, or the character description being condensed so it's not too long to be on the same page. The tags should still remain until issues have been resolved though. Edito*Magica ( talk) 02:39, 8 January 2009 (UTC) reply

I saw, thanks. I warned TGF in the peer review what would happen if it was nominated now. The JPS ^{talk to me} 20:39, 12 January 2009 (UTC) reply
