thanks for the welcome, LtPowers, I had a quick question... I was looking through some random pages and found an article ( You and I Misbehaving ) I thought might be redundant and prodded it. then Kappa deprodded it, visiting his talk page he seems to be an obsessive deprodder... however since I have not contributed to WP too much I don't feel comfortable submitting the article for AfD. Perhaps you could review the article and let me know if I was in the wrong prodding it. Xenocidic 15:30, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
Thank you for uploading Image:Highlandergame.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI ( talk) 15:50, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Highlandergame2.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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 non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

Sorry about that. Xenocidic ( talk) 20:47, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on Xbox 360 Fanboy requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for web content.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{
hangon}}
to the top of
the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on
the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Xenocidic, I removed your recent addition to Spore (video game). The citation states that it is in development for next-generation consoles but only specifically lists the Wii. It could be that they aren't targeting one of the other two. Heck, it's entirely possible we'll never see it on any of the next-gen consoles, but that's beside the point. The important thing is that EA has not actually confirmed either of the PS3 or the XBox 360 at this time. -- Yamla ( talk) 16:27, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

FYI, edits like this are not considered necessary. Most debates have that notice displayed inline with the other comments. User:Krator ( t c) 21:06, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
Hey thanks for bringing that to my attention and great job so far with formatting that page and handling the edit war. I put in a comment that voices my opinion and I hope the IP user will listen to it. btw, I'm sorry I haven't been around too much lately. I'm in the middle of a few projects other than Wikipedia and I haven't had much time to edit. Anyway, I have to say I'm really glad you joined Wikiproject Xbox because you seem to be the kind of editor who goes for stuff and gets stuff done. My fear for Wikiproject Xbox (especially after seeing some of Blackwatch21's edits) was that it would become cliche and inactive like so many Wikiprojects have. So, thanks for keeping on keeping on. Anyway, I might be on a little more often next week, but I'm not sure. (just wanted to let you know what is going on if I don't get back to you soon). Regards.

Greetings. You recently administrated an AIV for me so I figured you might be the best person to ask. I've been on Wikipedia since 2006, and fairly active since January of this year. I'm presently using Twinkle for rolling back, but then I noticed that it can tend to place a strain on WP's servers. I should mention that I was involved in an edit dispute with respect to List of Xbox 360 games but before it went too far, I sought the advice of the VG WikiProject. I am aware that WP's rollback should only be used for clear-cut cases of vandalism and proper edit summaries should be used in non-vandalism cases. Thank you for your time and consideration. xenocidic ( talk) 20:48, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
Sorry, it's

I didn't realise it was so long ago and had slipped off the page. The user who made the same edit as the IP user is now a banned user. He/she seems to have a Pro Xbox360, anti PS3 standpoint - to put it mildly :) -

In some places we're 8 hours ahead. I assume hte idea is to stop people getting it in the US and leaking it or the plot while we wait for the regular release dates of Friday, thus spoiling their sales for the opening week. It will be the same with GTA. Darkwarriorblake ( talk) 00:21, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
Technically its both. The article has passed Wikipedia's good article nomination and has been rated by the Wikiproject as an A-class article. The two are meant to and can exist happily together, as there is the banner proclaiming the article to be a good article, while it can be rated as A-class in the Wikiproject banner. The Orange Box has been rated as an A-class good article, so it should be listed as both on the talk page. Its not the only VG article to do so, its done on several other A-class GA's in the WP:VG influence. -- Sabre ( talk) 15:21, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Purecover.JPG. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot ( talk) 05:15, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
Thank you for making the changes. In regards to my own inability, there is a lock icon on the page, and the option to edit is simply not there for me. Thanks again. Fishboy100 ( talk) 23:47, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
Hey, thanks for letting me know about that edit. btw, if you see IP users editing userpages, you should probably check it out because quite a few IP users retaliate for reverts or warnings by vandalising the userpage of the person who reverted/warned them. Also, no one will object to you removing vandalism form their talk pages. (at least, no one that I know of will..) Anyway, about the notice that was up on my page, I thought something would be going on in RL that might prevent me from using Wikipedia too often, so I put that up. Later, it turned out the event wasn't going to happen, so I took the notice down. And I'll try to work on the barnstar later tonight. Regards. Thingg ⊕ ⊗ 23:55, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

For the founding date for Deckers Brothers, I have seen 1862. However, I believe that I put in that their manufacturing started in 1865, a few years after they were founded.

Anyway, I might be on a little more often next week, but I'm not sure. (just wanted to let you know what is going on if I don't get back to you soon). Regards.

I dropped you a message (along with JAF1970) here. Don't worry, it isn't anything bad. :) Cheers, Master of Puppets Call me MoP!☺ 04:05, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
I've deleted all of those. In the future, speedy them under WP:CSD criteria G7 and any admin who looks at CAT:SD will see it and delete if appropriate. Cheers, Master of Puppets Call me MoP!☺ 22:45, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
Whoa, I didn't see that. I'm not sure what (if anything) I can do about this, but I did go ahead and voice my opinion. Ah well... nothing's perfect.... Thingg ⊕ ⊗ 18:54, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:SmithandTinker.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. BetacommandBot ( talk) 05:23, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
There were personal comments contained in the article that didn't belong there - I just edited them out because they were absolutely immature, inappropriate and didn't have anything to do with the game. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.14.249.84 ( talk) 14:26, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

So, it didn't get deleted huh? that really cool man. I just am not familar with copyright laws and I didn't know if it counted as a derivative work or not. But hey, thanks for letting me know its all good and for defending it. :) Thingg ⊕ ⊗ 18:52, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
Greetings. You recently administrated an AIV for me so I figured you might be the best person to ask. I've been on Wikipedia since 2006, and fairly active since January of this year. I'm presently using Twinkle for rolling back, but then I noticed that it can tend to place a strain on WP's servers. I should mention that I was involved in an edit dispute with respect to List of Xbox 360 games but before it went too far, I sought the advice of the VG WikiProject. I am aware that WP's rollback should only be used for clear-cut cases of vandalism and proper edit summaries should be used in non-vandalism cases. Thank you for your time and consideration. xenocidic ( talk) 20:48, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
Sorry, it's

I didn't realise it was so long ago and had slipped off the page. The user who made the same edit as the IP user is now a banned user. He/she seems to have a Pro Xbox360, anti PS3 standpoint - to put it mildly :) -

I've re-jigged it a bit. It sounded odd that the PS3 version was announced at the MS press conference. - X201 ( talk) 18:45, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
HAHAHAHA that one about Mcdonalds cracked me up..... (it's even better because I generally like Burger King better anyway..more fuel for the fire ;) ) So yeah, maybe you could start your own list on your userpage (I agree they're more funny when added together).

...in England so it is Wednesday to me. Like when Halo 3 launched and we had midnight openings starting first thing wednesday, technically Tuesday evening, but still. Darkwarriorblake ( talk) 00:11, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
In some places we're 8 hours ahead. I assume hte idea is to stop people getting it in the US and leaking it or the plot while we wait for the regular release dates of Friday, thus spoiling their sales for the opening week. It will be the same with GTA. Darkwarriorblake ( talk) 00:21, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
Technically its both. The article has passed Wikipedia's good article nomination and has been rated by the Wikiproject as an A-class article. The two are meant to and can exist happily together, as there is the banner proclaiming the article to be a good article, while it can be rated as A-class in the Wikiproject banner. The Orange Box has been rated as an A-class good article, so it should be listed as both on the talk page. Its not the only VG article to do so, its done on several other A-class GA's in the WP:VG influence. -- Sabre ( talk) 15:21, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
For some reason, I missed that whole page. Thanks for catching my mistake. :) RC-0722 communicator/ kills 23:00, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for letting me know! Unfortunately, I've been in bed with a cold for a few days so I couldn't act. It's been done now, I see. Cheers, Master of Puppets Call me MoP!☺ 16:46, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
I want to thank you for the welcome and the offer of help. It truly is very different editing these articles than just reading them, and I'm trying to learn. I'll continue to add some to the Decker stub. Thank you. -- Eliwhale ( talk) 23:31, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for the userbox i love those things! Also i see you listened to the banner at the top of my talk lol didnt think anyone would see it. BonesBrigade 02:30, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading Image:Purecover.JPG. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot ( talk) 05:15, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
Thank you for making the changes. In regards to my own inability, there is a lock icon on the page, and the option to edit is simply not there for me. Thanks again. Fishboy100 ( talk) 23:47, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
Hey, thanks for letting me know about that edit. btw, if you see IP users editing userpages, you should probably check it out because quite a few IP users retaliate for reverts or warnings by vandalising the userpage of the person who reverted/warned them. Also, no one will object to you removing vandalism form their talk pages. (at least, no one that I know of will..) Anyway, about the notice that was up on my page, I thought something would be going on in RL that might prevent me from using Wikipedia too often, so I put that up. Later, it turned out the event wasn't going to happen, so I took the notice down. And I'll try to work on the barnstar later tonight. Regards. Thingg ⊕ ⊗ 23:55, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

For the founding date for Deckers Brothers, I have seen 1862. However, I believe that I put in that their manufacturing started in 1865, a few years after they were founded. What I understand is that they were developing patents the first few years after founding before producing any pianos. -- 69.254.64.39 ( talk) 00:17, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
I actually reverted an edit that was made to the userpage by the anonymous IP 71.191.48.27 (who was subsequently blocked). Thanks for keeping an eye out, though. ... discospinster talk 04:02, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
