Hello, Wesley Mouse. This message is being sent to inform you that there currently is a discussion at Wikipedia:Wikiquette assistance regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Bleubeatle ( talk) 23:06, 7 July 2012 (UTC)
hi soo i wanted to say thx and which u luck thx for all your hard work Wwecenarules2 ( talk) 18:32, 8 July 2012 (UTC) |
Hi, this discussion about Ell&Nikki might interest you.-- BabbaQ ( talk) 19:41, 7 July 2012 (UTC)
I'm not quite sure on that one to be honest. He didn't exactly have the courtesy to inform Cooper that he was talking about him behind his back. And I haven't really spoken about Bleubeatle behind his back on Cooper's page, I have merely quoted in brief what Bleu has said about Coop, so that he has a quick gist of the content. Wesley ☀ Mouse 20:13, 7 July 2012 (UTC)
I have no wish to argue with an established policy that dialects should not be mentioned. However, as I said in my edit summary, the status quo is that dialects such as Vorarlbergish are currently listed in the article. If you feel strongly about this, you may wish to remove them from the article. --- Ehrenkater ( talk) 15:40, 10 July 2012 (UTC)
ohh aahh, what could I write about? Malmö, my contributions? -- [[ axg ◉ talk ]] 12:57, 11 July 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for informing me of this issue. Constantly criticizing what we've said towards each other is going nowhere and I really don't want anymore arguments. I was really afraid of what you were going to say next to be honest and I couldn't even reply after what you've written towards me. But I am very pleased and I feel much better now that you've made that proposal. I just want to tell you that.
Before I make an agreement on the proposal I just want to say that I'm not sure if I agree with some of the points. Can I add something? Bleubeatle ( talk) 02:27, 12 July 2012 (UTC)
Just so you guys know, you are free to disagree. I can change them around until you guys agree with it. Bleubeatle ( talk) 06:23, 12 July 2012 (UTC)
If you could take a look on Loreen's article I would appreciate it, because I have reverted several edits right now. This because the article looks better in it's previous version then after some major changes. I might be wrong but I feel her activism and her career should be kept apart. Also the article looked messy with the new edits. But take a look. Cheers.-- BabbaQ ( talk) 23:04, 14 July 2012 (UTC)

Thanks Wesley Mouse for helping to promote Eurovision Song Contest 2012 to Good Article status. Please accept this little sign of appreciation and goodwill from me, because you deserve it. Keep it up, and give someone a pat on the back today. -- Sp33dyphil © hat ontributions 07:37, 18 July 2012 (UTC) |
Hi, I dont know if the subject interest you but could you take a look at the Paris Hilton article. A user and obvious fan of Hilton has made massive changes to her article and in a tone that to me mostly reminds me of a gossip magazine article. I have reverted all the user's edits but I feel some more point of views are needed so if you got some time please check it out. I do feel that the reverts has been justified so far. Also in my opinion even a much more established user shouldn't do such massive changes as the user has done without proper consensus for them at the articles talk page which I have tried to get theuser to realise. Cheers.-- BabbaQ ( talk) 22:22, 18 July 2012 (UTC)
No worries about standing up for you with that incident. I couldn't sit back and see another editor receive such uncivil abuse. And I expected that I would have got something in backlash too, how I managed to keep my cool God only knows. As for the Paris Hilton incident, don't worry too much about it. From looking at the discussions on the article talk page, it seems as though the majority are in agreement that the user is straying off manual of style. Another editor is going to be keeping an eye on proceedings just in case though. And yes, the biggest show on Earth is a matter of days away now. I can't believe that it was August 2005 that I expressed an interest for being a volunteer, and then in 2010 I submitted my application, and now 2012 is here and the games are about to begin - yes I'm nervous, but I tend to work better under pressure. I plan to pop in here on my shift-days off, and check up on messages, and to send out the Project Eurovision newsletter too. There's a surprise in this next edition for all project members, ut I won't say too much now as its a surprise. Take care, and I'll chat more soon. London's is beckoning my presence lol. Wesley Mouse 21:18, 19 July 2012 (UTC)
Oh, You are an volunteer to Olympic? I am also an volunteer there.Hope we will meet there.:-) Xentram ( talk) 01:28, 19 July 2012 (UTC)
Yep, I sure am. There's a userbox on my main page for London 2012 Volunteers, feel free to add it to your page too if you like. Hopefully see you around the OPK. Wesley Mouse 01:34, 19 July 2012 (UTC)
Hi Wesley Mouse, I just left a message about this on Anthony Appleyard's page. It doesn't in any way affect your closem but there may be an admin issue about the way the archives were adjusted by an IP prior to the RM. In ictu oculi ( talk) 19:10, 22 July 2012 (UTC)

HOME • TALK • PORTAL • NEWSDESK • ARCHIVES | ||||||
Bienvenue! Willkommen! Welcome! Please be warm-hearted in encouraging everyone to do their best to contribute to all Eurovision-related Wikipedia articles, and welcome our new members to the project. The past month has been an eventful one for the project as a whole. Old dramas have closed, new ones have begun. Four articles nominated for GA review, three of them passed and promoted, with one of them making ProjectEurovision history by being the first annual contest article to ever achieve GA status. If it wasn't for the hard work and the many hours of team collaborations that we have endured on this project, then those accolades would never have been gained. Each of those article promotions are as a result of your continuous determination to be part of the best team this project has seen for a long time. There is a teamwork barnstar with this newsletter for you to cherish and you may display the award on your pages if you wish. Now we look to the months ahead and start preparations for Malmo 2013, and see if we can work to getting another annual article to GA status. Here's to you - the team of excellence.
Happy editing! | ||||||

Thank you for helping me with the Paris Hilton article and user Erica. Please keep an extra eye on her edits. She still seems a bit trigger-happpy with her edit's on the article in my opinion. Tonight is the night London 2012!! Cheers!-- BabbaQ ( talk) 13:42, 27 July 2012 (UTC)
I don't know how much you're anti-Semitic. But to say that Jerusalem is not a Jewish capital is the most anti-Semitic in the world ! . פארוק ( talk) 13:14, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
Who has attacked Israel's articles and by what means have they done so? Please understand that I haven't said anything about hating Jewish people, or wanting to delete Jerusalem as the capital city of Israel, or that I may or may not be a Palestinian supporter. To be honest, I recognise every nation in the world, regardless of what others think. I believe in equality and that everyone has the right to believe in what they feel is right, even if others may think its wrong. I am glad that you have understood the images problem though, and have now inserted them into the article itself - which by the way look like a good improvement. Is Jerusalem the capital of Israel? I was talking to an athlete from Israel while working at London 2012 Olympics, and they told me they come from Tel Aviv, the capital of Israel. Now I'm confused as to which is the capital city. Wesley Mouse 14:12, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
I have created a new section about the choice of Malmö Arena. Please take a look at it. Im not sure if it is very good but I felt like it needed to be added. Feel free to change it. Cheers.-- BabbaQ ( talk) 14:58, 7 August 2012 (UTC)
By the looks of it, Erica has discussed the majority of those edits on the article talk page before adding them. A handful of editors appear to have given her the approval to add them. Perhaps its time to engage in a new discussion on the talk page and everyone needs to explain to Erica that mass editing on articles relating to BLP's may be highly controversial especially if they are written in a "gossip magazine" style again. The way she is heading, she could end up with a topic ban if she's not too careful. Wesley Mouse 17:12, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
Many thanks - much appreciated. - Derek R Bullamore ( talk) 12:20, 10 August 2012 (UTC)

21:50, 13 August 2012 (UTC)Hi. I am part of an effort to get Wikimedians access to the 2016 Summer Olympics as accredited reporters and photographers. Part of this effort includes covering the 2012 Summer Paralympics. Two Wikimedians have credentials to attend these games as reporters through Wikimedia Australia. As English Wikipedia does not allow original reporting, this is largely through Wikinews with a project page found at Wikinews:Paralympic Games. If you are interested in helping to get Wikimedians to the next Summer Olympics,I'd encourage you to assist with Wikinews efforts, and also to work on all language 2012 Summer Paralympic Wikipedia articles before, during and after the Games to demonstrate a track record of success. Thank you. -- LauraHale ( talk) 04:05, 17 August 2012 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading File:ABU Radio Song Festival 2012 logo.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 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 for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude ( talk) 03:59, 18 August 2012 (UTC)
Hi, I have decided to let this one go and re-join the Eurovision project again. I have decided to look at it positive with these two AfDs resulting in merge as the information is still saved at the National articles. On the other hand I am still not in favour of the way these discussions was handled at all, and I will always consider them basic blackmail trough threats in my opinion a "black day" in Wikipedia democracy. I have also made it pretty clear of this standpoint to Bleubeatle at his talk page, hopefully he/she can prove me wrong of my opinion conerning the user. And I hope this does not result in a upcoming Mass-AfD or Mass-Merge without discussions scenario. But back to the positive, I am back and it is your birthday! Congratulations again!-- BabbaQ ( talk) 17:36, 15 August 2012 (UTC)

Hey man. I haven't been much help to you with the reformat of the Eurovision articles unfortunately. I've had a lot of things to do IRL as well as other tasks on here. Hopefully I'll be able to do a little more work on it soon, I hope that it's OK. -- Reckless182 (talk) 09:13, 21 August 2012 (UTC)

Bienvenue! Willkommen! Welcome! Please be warm-hearted in encouraging everyone to do their best to contribute to all Eurovision-related Wikipedia articles, and welcome our new members to the project. Remember that this project can only operate if we act in a cooperative manner and engage in discussions regarding article matters. It is seen as best practice to put forward ideas to other members of the project before rushing ahead and acting on a potential falsifying action. If you feel an article may warrant a deletion, why not test the waters by opening a discussion on the article's talk page or our very own project talk page - before rushing off and submitting an AfD. It saves wasting time nominating an article for deletion which could end up with an overwhelming "keep" by other editors. Communicating with each other is a vital tool and a skill that may prove advantageous in real-life scenarios. Also be on the look out for potential new members to the project. Post {{subst:EurovisionInvite}} (which will produced this template) on any user page you think is interested to join the WikiProject, to officially invite them to join.

In regards to the Ell & Nikki article and our agreement here. I think that its too long and looking through the article again, there really isn't much activity going on with the article. But Nigar Jamal and Eldar Gasimov on other hand have done some solo activities more recently. I'm quite concerned about this. So what do you think? Bleubeatle ( talk) 10:16, 2 September 2012 (UTC)
So if I discuss with you what is said above I am violating it already? I kind of disagree here. Its like I'm being singled out and I can't have any word about it. I'm not even trying to cause anything. I was just asking. Bleubeatle ( talk) 22:27, 2 September 2012 (UTC)
Hi Wesley. Just wanted to let you know that I mentioned you and an incident between you and Libstar in my response to the "pattern" discussion at my talk page.

Part of this effort includes covering the 2012 Summer Paralympics. Two Wikimedians have credentials to attend these games as reporters through Wikimedia Australia. As English Wikipedia does not allow original reporting, this is largely through Wikinews with a project page found at Wikinews:Paralympic Games. If you are interested in helping to get Wikimedians to the next Summer Olympics,I'd encourage you to assist with Wikinews efforts, and also to work on all language 2012 Summer Paralympic Wikipedia articles before, during and after the Games to demonstrate a track record of success. Thank you. -- LauraHale ( talk) 04:05, 17 August 2012 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading File:ABU Radio Song Festival 2012 logo.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 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 for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude ( talk) 03:59, 18 August 2012 (UTC)
Hi, I have decided to let this one go and re-join the Eurovision project again. I have decided to look at it positive with these two AfDs resulting in merge as the information is still saved at the National articles. On the other hand I am still not in favour of the way these discussions was handled at all, and I will always consider them basic blackmail trough threats in my opinion a "black day" in Wikipedia democracy. I have also made it pretty clear of this standpoint to Bleubeatle at his talk page, hopefully he/she can prove me wrong of my opinion conerning the user. And I hope this does not result in a upcoming Mass-AfD or Mass-Merge without discussions scenario. But back to the positive, I am back and it is your birthday! Congratulations again!-- BabbaQ ( talk) 17:36, 15 August 2012 (UTC)

Hey man. I haven't been much help to you with the reformat of the Eurovision articles unfortunately. I've had a lot of things to do IRL as well as other tasks on here. Hopefully I'll be able to do a little more work on it soon, I hope that it's OK. -- Reckless182 (talk) 09:13, 21 August 2012 (UTC)

Bienvenue! Willkommen! Welcome! Please be warm-hearted in encouraging everyone to do their best to contribute to all Eurovision-related Wikipedia articles, and welcome our new members to the project. Remember that this project can only operate if we act in a cooperative manner and engage in discussions regarding article matters. It is seen as best practice to put forward ideas to other members of the project before rushing ahead and acting on a potential falsifying action. If you feel an article may warrant a deletion, why not test the waters by opening a discussion on the article's talk page or our very own project talk page - before rushing off and submitting an AfD. It saves wasting time nominating an article for deletion which could end up with an overwhelming "keep" by other editors. Communicating with each other is a vital tool and a skill that may prove advantageous in real-life scenarios. Also be on the look out for potential new members to the project. Post {{subst:EurovisionInvite}} (which will produced this template) on any user page you think is interested to join the WikiProject, to officially invite them to join.

About that I am sorry.Can we agree to disagree?-- BellaFan262 ( talk) 09:01, 1 September 2012 (UTC)

In regards to the Ell & Nikki article and our agreement here. I think that its too long and looking through the article again, there really isn't much activity going on with the article. But Nigar Jamal and Eldar Gasimov on other hand have done some solo activities more recently. I'm quite concerned about this. So what do you think? Bleubeatle ( talk) 10:16, 2 September 2012 (UTC)
So if I discuss with you what is said above I am violating it already? I kind of disagree here. Its like I'm being singled out and I can't have any word about it. I'm not even trying to cause anything. I was just asking. Bleubeatle ( talk) 22:27, 2 September 2012 (UTC)
Hi Wesley. Just wanted to let you know that I mentioned you and an incident between you and Libstar in my response to the "pattern" discussion at my talk page. Just so you can respond if you feel like it! I will be off Wikipedia for atleast a week as I am going abroad. I will be back though! :) Cheers.-- BabbaQ ( talk) 16:10, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
