Special note to spamlist users: Apologies for the formatting issues in previous issues. This only recently became a problem due to a change in HTML Tidy; however, I am to blame on this issue. Sorry, and all messages from this one forward should be fine (I hope!) -Ral315

TV miniseries not films

Hi, there are several TV miniseries mistakenly categoriezed and infoboxed as films. However WP Films goes only as far as Television films in sharing with WP Television. Could we correct this in Dragon Boys? Hoverfish Talk 21:55, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

I just want to add that if you feel TV miniseries should be considered films, we should have a discussion about it in WP Films. Any comments about it are welcome. Hoverfish Talk 21:59, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

It is confusing, so I started discussions both in Films and Television. As soon as there is some clear indication, I'll let you know. Surely if they were filmed, it is technically a film (or it is on film). It is just a matter of project scope and categorization. Hoverfish Talk 07:25, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

Anaheim awards and trophies

The "prose" approach is nice. However, if you wish to copy the Devils' site, then you need to make the standard bulleted trophy list (found on all 30 NHL Wikipedia pages) a separate page with a link from the main page - like the Devils' site is done - with the "prose" as the intro for that site.Darthflyer 02:13, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

I'd suggest reverting it back to 'Honoured Members' and perhaps contact an Administrator about his 'arrogant' behaviour. As you may know, Darthflyer and I, have gone head-to-head before, at Philadelphia Flyers (he even erased, one of my posts at talk: Philadelphia Flyers). What's more annoying is he won't sign in or respond on his IP talk page. Should you revert back, I'll put Anaheim Ducks on my watchlist and help out countering DF's edits of this section. GoodDay 19:48, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

I've restore the WikiProject backed 'Honored Members' style and left a message at talk: Anaheim Ducks, concerning the prefered style. If Darthflyer reverts (again), I'll report him to the Administrators. PS- I've nothing against DF personally (but his lack of willingness to cooperate, is becoming annoying). GoodDay 20:24, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
I've posted at Wikipedia: WikiProject Ice Hockey letting others know of Darthflyer's anti-consensus behaviour (concerning the Anaheim Ducks). GoodDay 21:16, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:CourtneyJines-SK3.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:CourtneyJines-SK3.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. BetacommandBot 04:01, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

Richmond Schools

You may be interested to know that the AfD gang is going after Richmond elementary schools. People voting for deletion naturally have no connection with Canada. There is currently a process on at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Henry Anderson Elementary School, and several others have been deleted without warning. One of them managed to amend Template:RichmondBCSchools to remove all elementary schools, thus concealing his efforts. Hope you can help. Eclecticology 22:20, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
