The article Field Day (festival) you nominated as a good article has failed ; see Talk:Field Day (festival) for reasons why the nomination failed. If or when these points have been taken care of, you may apply for a new nomination of said article. If you oppose this decision, you may ask for a reassessment. –– Jezhotwells ( talk) 15:09, 5 April 2010 (UTC) reply

Heh, it's by These New Puritans. WELL worth a listen, YouTube "Elvis". Post punk at its finest. Also, I'm worried now that Kele's going solo, Russel's writing awful songs with some Yank and Moakes is in some metal band I can't remember the name of off-hand, that Bloc Party might be no more. Hope not.

Anyway, you going to T?  f o x  09:59, 18 June 2010 (UTC) reply

Their first album is much better to listen to than their second, I think. Hidden's a little too arty for my day-to-day taste. I also reckon if Bloc Party did get back together they're going to get more dancey still (which is a good thing for me, but I still appreciate how brilliant Silent Alarm was). Ah well...

That's a ridiculous number of festivals for one year! I was considering going to Rockness (it's only a hundred miles up the dual-carriageway) but never did. It's just T in the Park, my first ever festival, and my second ever gig. ;) Excited for it, greatly.  f o x  14:01, 19 June 2010 (UTC) reply

Really? You don't know a Bloc Party fan who doesn't like Flux? It's probably (bar Mercury) their most divisive song. I mean, I love it, but a lot of 'fans' don't. Ah well. I also think that was a fairly unreliable source. That was in the Bloc Party article for a while, unreferenced, heh.

Heh, I'm sure there are plenty! ;) The first (and only) gig I've been to was Franz Ferdinand supported by Editors and The 1990s back in 2005... Ahhhh, memories ;)  f o x  12:46, 21 June 2010 (UTC) reply

A letter off. But yeah, you're in Scotland? Since when? ;P  f o x  14:58, 21 June 2010 (UTC) reply

Oops, sorry about the slow response. Stuff came up. That's awesome ;P Probably the same tour. Nobody ever comes here these days; well, except to bars and things, and I'm pretty screwed then (the new law about under eighteens in pubs after eight usually shoots me right down, heh). Oh well. As for albums, I'm not good at predicting stuff (I'm usually about a year behind, anyway; only bought Only Revolutions and xx recently. Haha. But I like Kele's new one. I forget its name. And I'm heavily tipping Dog Is Dead for this year. Wow.  f o x  08:38, 2 July 2010 (UTC) reply

Wikipedia has recently created a new feature where you can purchase physical books which consist of all copies of the articles on the particular subject. I've taken the time to create one on the subject of TUGS which you can see here: Book:TUGS. All you see there you can then download as a pdf or purchase a physical copy of it which would be great for any TUGS fans. Hope you enjoy it and if you do want to add more to it or change some things about, please be aware that we don't want to clutter it too much with anything that although relevant may seem unecessary. -- Victory93 ( talk) 09:55, 15 August 2010 (UTC) reply

as well an interview with David Mitton found here:

Hi, sorry not been on Wikipedia in ages. Got an email about this (that must be a new thing I've missed!). Going to get back to writing in a big way fairly soon.

Well it's a reliable Thomas fansite which also features things about TUGS and of course these interviews do help explain some of the behind-the-secens bits about the series.

Thanks for uploading File:Robert D. Cardona.PNG. I noticed the description page specifies that this media item is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails the first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media item could be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media item is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the file description page and edit it to add {{ di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
2. On the file discussion page, write the reason why this media item is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. VernoWhitney ( talk) 22:54, 4 December 2012 (UTC) reply

I have decided to put on a mini-contest within the November 2013 monthly disambiguation contest, on Saturday, November 23 (UTC). I will personally give a $20 Amazon.com gift card to the disambiguator who fixes the most links on that server-day ( see the project page for details on scoring points). Since we are not geared up to do an automated count for that day, at 00:00, 23 November 2013 (UTC) (which is 7:00 PM on November 22, EST), I'll take a screenshot of the project page leaderboard. I will presume that anyone who is not already listed on the leaderboard has precisely nine edits. At 01:00, 24 November 2013 (UTC) (8:00 PM on November 23, EST), I'll take a screenshot of the leaderboard at that time (the extra hour is to give the board time to update), and I will determine from that who our winner is. I will credit links fixed by turning a WP:DABCONCEPT page into an article, but you'll have to let me know me that you did so. Here's to a fun contest. Note that according to the Daily Disambig, we currently have under 256,000 disambiguation links to be fixed. If everyone in the disambiguation link fixers category were to fix 500 links, we would have them all done - so aim high! Cheers! bd2412 T 02:23, 18 November 2013 (UTC) reply

The article Clearwater Periscope lens system has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

This article has been merged with the article it is most associated with and therefore doesn't need to exist.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
