Hi there. I put singles back as an optional parameter on {{ Infobox sports league}}. There's some wacky but well-worn syntax involved. Check it out. Cheers. Rolando 00:07, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
I saw this which you added {{ sprotect}} after {{ sprotect2}} was already on there. It's really unneeded to have both, so it should be one or the other :) Sprotect2 is mainly for long-term sprotected articles/talks/etc. where sprotect is better for short-term as the template is really ugly looking after a long time of being on there, see George W. Bush for a good example. Cheers! semper fi — Moe 00:12, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
You said: "I tried to upload an image of Woody Allen Image:476px-Woody Allen - statue.jpg from Wikimedia Commons to Woody Allen, I'm not sure if I did it properly because when I viewed other Wikipedia pictures that reference wikicommons I do not see any text on the edit page.

The description on its description page there is shown below", I was wondering if you could tell me how to upload a picture from Wikicommons for an article? :)"

Thanks for uploading Image:Nakedweaponfilm.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Please watch who you accuse of vandalizing a page, especially when you accuse me of being "sneaky" when I actually identified and explained why I deleted the information. The infobox is for the theatrical release of a film. If a film is released theatrically with different cuts (like Alien (film) was, then you would make not of the various run times of the film. ALL films are edited for time, and most films nowadays come with an "uncut" or "director's cut" version. That does not change the fact that when originally released there was only 1 run time. The various cuts (which do not even exist yet) are already mentioned later in the article, at their appropriate placement. BIGNOLE (Contact me) 23:02, 7 March 2009 (UTC)

Hi, Valoem. Here's that Dong-A Ilbo article that was a dead link. [1] I see right under the title "《‘여제(女帝)’ 서지수."

As I've stated, I'm simply following a consensus that was apparently decided on some time ago. It's good that you're opening a debate on it though; that's all I really want. If you a consensus can be reached to change it back, then knock yourselves out. You should probably post it a WP:COMIC, too, that's sort of the 'official' page for this.

I mentioned it on the WikiProject Comics talk page, and had support for the bold merge; you'll have to look through the archives for that. The characters would not have substantial articles on their own, and in such cases merges into a single article are preferred. There's very little secondary source information on the characters, aside from the possible exception of Rorschach, which is why his article was left separate. In fact, the characters article was somewhat of a test to see whether or not the characters even required pages separate from Watchmen, and currently both of the articles have the same information.

I think paragraphs are easier to read than dozens of one-sentence paragraphs, which is primarily why I merged them. It also makes the article not appear artificially long; some of the articles would need a couple of pages to print when one would do, for instance. They look messier when there are several one-sentence paragraphs. Gary King ( talk) 22:35, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
Hey there, I see you are trying to resplit the dragon ball's articles again. I already tried, but the freaking anime project won't do it. They think wikipedia revolves around them.

Generally, accusations of sockpuppetry should be made at WP:SPI, particularly if you want administrative action on them. I'd also point out that TBDevilRays2009 has never been directly blocked; he was caught in a checkuser block for unrelated vandalism.

Valoem, I recently created a page for Gary Brooks Foster (bin Laden Hunter) that has been deleted by Marcus Qwertyus. The justification for deletion of the page was a debate over the validity of the entry. I noticed you were in favor of keeping the page. There were three votes to delete and four votes to keep. The debate seems to have swung in favor of keeping the page, yet it was still deleted by Qwertyus. I am new to Wikipedia and need your help. Is there anything I can do to get the page up? Why does Marcus Qwertyus feel the urge to delete pages on a whim and prevent the open exchange of information? Thank you, STEGASAURUS REX ( talk) 18:28, 25 June 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for bringing it to my attention. Looking at it now, it seems worse than I left it. Of course, I did leave it. I realizes I had to wash my hands of the entire thing. Amidst the calls to cut it down to about 800 words, despite the fact that the version that would do that ended up gutting the plot and leaving it incorrect, and other users blowing it up to ridiculous length, there wasn't much I cared to do anymore. I feel that some users were trying to make a comprehensive and brief version, but I didn't see anything happen while I was there, and I didn't think it was an argument I could make on my own. A word of advice, though, when dealing with the 800- word types: If constraining a movie plot results in the plot being grossly misrepresented, per WP:IGNORE, ignore the rule and go ahead with a reasonably longer plot for the betterment of the article (and Wikipedia as a whole). That's what I can give you. Good luck trying to fix the mess. :| Luminum ( talk) 20:18, 6 August 2010 (UTC)

Actually I did discuss it with him. If you look at history of the account you can see that he reverted the formatting from a long standing version. Please see all edits prior to the edit by User:2005. He change the original format to a more convoluted version. I attempted to discuss his reversion which is visible on BOTH his talk page and the discussion page.

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged revisions, underwent a two-month trial which ended on 15 August 2010. Its continued use is still being discussed by the community, you are free to participate in such discussions. Many articles still have pending changes protection applied, however, and the ability to review pending changes continues to be of use.
Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under level 1 pending changes and edits made by non-reviewers to level 2 pending changes protected articles (usually high traffic articles). Pending changes was applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.
For the guideline on reviewing, see Wikipedia:Reviewing. Being granted reviewer rights doesn't grant you status nor change how you can edit articles even with pending changes. The general help page on pending changes can be found here, and the general policy for the trial can be found here.
If you do not want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles 05:20, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

My prod at the cherry article was proper - and so was your way of addressing it at [3]. I think you did an excellent job proving that the subject is notable by find good references. Unfortunately, as I noted in the AFD on the plumes/prunes, I am not seeing such good references there; what we have there is primary a bunch of recipes, and I believe it is customary not to see such articles as quality (reliable) sources. Perhaps you can find better ones?

Hello. It appears that you have been canvassing—leaving messages on a biased choice of users' talk pages to notify them of an ongoing community decision, debate, or vote. While friendly notices are allowed, they should be limited and nonpartisan in distribution and should reflect a neutral point of view. Please do not post notices which are indiscriminately cross-posted, which espouse a certain point of view or side of a debate, or which are selectively sent only to those who are believed to hold the same opinion as you. Remember to respect Wikipedia's principle of consensus-building by allowing decisions to reflect the prevailing opinion among the community at large.

Its almost 4 years since the DRV so its perfectly reasonable to ask for it to be reviewed again. I strongly advise you to avoid rehashing history because that is going to lose you support. The only issue is whether the sources you now have are new and whether they meet the GNG/RS.
I have suggested in the DRV discussion that you take the two best sources and discuss how they meet the GNG/RS. That's going to really focus everyone on the issue in play and avoid any unhelpful digressions into history. Over to you.
By the way I'm not stalking you. I have been a regular at DRV since 2007. Spartaz Humbug! 12:48, 29 March 2014 (UTC)

Please clarify, you said there is no lawsuit against Fattah Jr. The raid is in accordance with accusations against him. Have those allegations been dropped? If so it would be in your interest to add that information. Keep in mind Fattah is under investigation to write only about his lawsuit is bias. Source provided suggest he was being investigated for those reasons I accidentally linked the wrong source. I've added that source though. There should be no issues! Valoem talk contrib 02:36, 19 April 2014 (UTC)
Here is the response: There is no lawsuit against Chaka Fattah Jr by any federal government agency. The raid, which took place over two years ago, has resulted in no criminal or civil charges to date. The raid was on February 29, 2012, see multiple sources. I did not only write about the lawsuit, I wrote about the raid. See Chaka Fattah Jr. article, "On February 29, 2012 FBI and IRS agents seized records from Fattah's apartment at the Residences at the Ritz-Carlton." Keep in mind that according to the Libel policy, negative information about living persons must be properly sourced. The articles you sourced with the specific allegations is referencing the article writers opinions about what the government is or was investigating. There are no articles in which a government official actually says what they were investigating. It is also incorrect you saying that Fattah Jr worked on fund raising for his father. There is no source that says that. Fattah Jr is suing the government. They have taken no action, in civil or criminal court, against him since the raid two years ago. See Wiki policy on undue weight. His lawsuit is recent, filed March 25, 2014. The raid was two years ago. His lawsuit has gotten a significant amount of media attention, which is obviously more recent. So it is more current information. 71.230.108.152 ( talk) 02:45, 19 April 2014 (UTC)
Fattah Jr. is not being investigated for fund mismanagement or missed loan payments. As most people would know, missing loan payment is not a crime. 71.230.108.152 ( talk) 02:47, 19 April 2014 (UTC)
It says that someone said he missed loan payments. It doesn't say he is being investigated for that. It also does not say anything about fund mismanagement, since Fattah Jr. did not control any funds. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.230.108.152 ( talk) 02:56, 19 April 2014 (UTC)

I fixed a spelling error in the article and made comments in the article's talk page.
This article is an example of the conflict between Meta:Inclusionism and Meta:Deletionism. The same Wikipedian who spearheaded the deletion of this article also went off on a campaign to delete articles from my user space. The articles deleted were highly technical (I am a computer scientist), but included as labels beings subject to skepticism. The articles deleted were not about beings subject to skepticism, much as the article Unix daemon uses the label of mythical daemons. It is incorrect to delete an article about a real, notable subject because it uses labels of beings that are mythical or subject to skepticism. Obankston ( talk) 20:33, 24 April 2014 (UTC)
An article being at AfD is not a proscription from the article being edited. Please read the notice: "Feel free to edit the article, "
When an article is at AfD it is perfectly acceptable to continue to edit the article such as removing dross so that casual commentators can easily get to the heart of the discussion without being bamboozled into "there are lots of reliable source references about this topic" or forcing them to review content and sources that are clearly not appropriate. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 11:28, 5 May 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Nakedweaponfilm.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Please watch who you accuse of vandalizing a page, especially when you accuse me of being "sneaky" when I actually identified and explained why I deleted the information. The infobox is for the theatrical release of a film. If a film is released theatrically with different cuts (like Alien (film) was, then you would make not of the various run times of the film. ALL films are edited for time, and most films nowadays come with an "uncut" or "director's cut" version. That does not change the fact that when originally released there was only 1 run time. The various cuts (which do not even exist yet) are already mentioned later in the article, at their appropriate placement. BIGNOLE (Contact me) 23:02, 7 March 2009 (UTC)

I mentioned it on the WikiProject Comics talk page, and had support for the bold merge; you'll have to look through the archives for that. The characters would not have substantial articles on their own, and in such cases merges into a single article are preferred. There's very little secondary source information on the characters, aside from the possible exception of Rorschach, which is why his article was left separate. In fact, the characters article was somewhat of a test to see whether or not the characters even required pages separate from Watchmen, and currently both of the articles have the same information.

I think paragraphs are easier to read than dozens of one-sentence paragraphs, which is primarily why I merged them.

Valoem, I recently created a page for Gary Brooks Foster (bin Laden Hunter) that has been deleted by Marcus Qwertyus. The justification for deletion of the page was a debate over the validity of the entry. I noticed you were in favor of keeping the page. There were three votes to delete and four votes to keep. The debate seems to have swung in favor of keeping the page, yet it was still deleted by Qwertyus. I am new to Wikipedia and need your help. Is there anything I can do to get the page up?

Thanks for bringing it to my attention. Looking at it now, it seems worse than I left it. Of course, I did leave it. I realizes I had to wash my hands of the entire thing. Amidst the calls to cut it down to about 800 words, despite the fact that the version that would do that ended up gutting the plot and leaving it incorrect, and other users blowing it up to ridiculous length, there wasn't much I cared to do anymore. I feel that some users were trying to make a comprehensive and brief version, but I didn't see anything happen while I was there, and I didn't think it was an argument I could make on my own. A word of advice, though, when dealing with the 800- word types: If constraining a movie plot results in the plot being grossly misrepresented, per WP:IGNORE, ignore the rule and go ahead with a reasonably longer plot for the betterment of the article (and Wikipedia as a whole). That's what I can give you. Good luck trying to fix the mess. :| Luminum ( talk) 20:18, 6 August 2010 (UTC)

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged revisions, underwent a two-month trial which ended on 15 August 2010. Its continued use is still being discussed by the community, you are free to participate in such discussions. Many articles still have pending changes protection applied, however, and the ability to review pending changes continues to be of use.
Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under level 1 pending changes and edits made by non-reviewers to level 2 pending changes protected articles (usually high traffic articles). Pending changes was applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.
For the guideline on reviewing, see Wikipedia:Reviewing. Being granted reviewer rights doesn't grant you status nor change how you can edit articles even with pending changes. The general help page on pending changes can be found here, and the general policy for the trial can be found here.

Hi Valoem, I noticed you speak Chinese. I wonder if you could do me a favor by checking Khanhoo, which I started, and see if you can find references or any other information on the game that is still missing on the History section (terminology and evolution). User CCyber 5 helped me find some info on the subject last year, but unfortunately I missed the chance to have him reference the things he found about the game. I'll try to contact him again. I've been adding some info there today, with more for tomorrow, including some refs that I found today. You would have to look for info or refs in Chinese, not English. Everything else is ok there, but for a few missing things, prose and spelling here and there, only refs missing. Krenakarore TK 22:35, 19 July 2012 (UTC)

My prod at the cherry article was proper - and so was your way of addressing it at [3]. I think you did an excellent job proving that the subject is notable by find good references. Unfortunately, as I noted in the AFD on the plumes/prunes, I am not seeing such good references there; what we have there is primary a bunch of recipes, and I believe it is customary not to see such articles as quality (reliable) sources. Perhaps you can find better ones? For the record, I tried doing a search for Polish languages refs for plums but all I see are more recipes and or product ads, not a single article about their history, cultural importance, or such :( -- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 06:36, 26 March 2014 (UTC)
Hello. It appears that you have been canvassing—leaving messages on a biased choice of users' talk pages to notify them of an ongoing community decision, debate, or vote. While friendly notices are allowed, they should be limited and nonpartisan in distribution and should reflect a neutral point of view. Please do not post notices which are indiscriminately cross-posted, which espouse a certain point of view or side of a debate, or which are selectively sent only to those who are believed to hold the same opinion as you. Remember to respect Wikipedia's principle of consensus-building by allowing decisions to reflect the prevailing opinion among the community at large. Your edits to [4], [5], [6] and [7] are all canvassing. Please don't pick individual editors to comment in AFDs. If you want wider participation you can ask wikiprojects or list in a specific area of interest deletion list - which in fact has already been done. Spartaz Humbug! 08:57, 28 March 2014 (UTC)
While on the surface this appears to be canvassing, it was actually an outreach for the opinions from members of the porn project. I was confused specifically about
this which states:
I tried to leave neutral messages for unbiased opinions, my concern at the time, was due to the lack of response from members of the wikiproject. I have no editorial history with any of the editors and found all of them here (went down the list). Valoem talk 13:14, 28 March 2014 (UTC)
Its almost 4 years since the DRV so its perfectly reasonable to ask for it to be reviewed again. I strongly advise you to avoid rehashing history because that is going to lose you support. The only issue is whether the sources you now have are new and whether they meet the GNG/RS.
I have suggested in the DRV discussion that you take the two best sources and discuss how they meet the GNG/RS. That's going to really focus everyone on the issue in play and avoid any unhelpful digressions into history. Over to you.
By the way I'm not stalking you. I have been a regular at DRV since 2007. Spartaz Humbug! 12:48, 29 March 2014 (UTC)

Please clarify, you said there is no lawsuit against Fattah Jr. The raid is in accordance with accusations against him. Have those allegations been dropped? If so it would be in your interest to add that information. Keep in mind Fattah is under investigation to write only about his lawsuit is bias. Source provided suggest he was being investigated for those reasons I accidentally linked the wrong source. I've added that source though. There should be no issues! Valoem talk contrib 02:36, 19 April 2014 (UTC)
Here is the response: There is no lawsuit against Chaka Fattah Jr by any federal government agency. The raid, which took place over two years ago, has resulted in no criminal or civil charges to date. The raid was on February 29, 2012, see multiple sources. I did not only write about the lawsuit, I wrote about the raid. See Chaka Fattah Jr. article, "On February 29, 2012 FBI and IRS agents seized records from Fattah's apartment at the Residences at the Ritz-Carlton." Keep in mind that according to the Libel policy, negative information about living persons must be properly sourced. The articles you sourced with the specific allegations is referencing the article writers opinions about what the government is or was investigating. There are no articles in which a government official actually says what they were investigating. It is also incorrect you saying that Fattah Jr worked on fund raising for his father. There is no source that says that. Fattah Jr is suing the government. They have taken no action, in civil or criminal court, against him since the raid two years ago. See Wiki policy on undue weight. His lawsuit is recent, filed March 25, 2014. The raid was two years ago. His lawsuit has gotten a significant amount of media attention, which is obviously more recent. So it is more current information. 71.230.108.152 ( talk) 02:45, 19 April 2014 (UTC)
Fattah Jr. is not being investigated for fund mismanagement or missed loan payments. As most people would know, missing loan payment is not a crime. 71.230.108.152 ( talk) 02:47, 19 April 2014 (UTC)
It says that someone said he missed loan payments. It doesn't say he is being investigated for that. It also does not say anything about fund mismanagement, since Fattah Jr. did not control any funds. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.230.108.152 ( talk) 02:56, 19 April 2014 (UTC)

I fixed a spelling error in the article and made comments in the article's talk page.
This article is an example of the conflict between Meta:Inclusionism and Meta:Deletionism. The same Wikipedian who spearheaded the deletion of this article also went off on a campaign to delete articles from my user space. The articles deleted were highly technical (I am a computer scientist), but included as labels beings subject to skepticism. The articles deleted were not about beings subject to skepticism, much as the article Unix daemon uses the label of mythical daemons. It is incorrect to delete an article about a real, notable subject because it uses labels of beings that are mythical or subject to skepticism. Obankston ( talk) 20:33, 24 April 2014 (UTC)
An article being at AfD is not a proscription from the article being edited. Please read the notice: "Feel free to edit the article, "
When an article is at AfD it is perfectly acceptable to continue to edit the article such as removing dross so that casual commentators can easily get to the heart of the discussion without being bamboozled into "there are lots of reliable source references about this topic" or forcing them to review content and sources that are clearly not appropriate. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 11:28, 5 May 2014 (UTC)
