miami bass[edit]
Please let me know if you have any questions about how to cite your sources for Miami bass. Thanks. Tuf-Kat 17:29, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
- Given the lack of any progress on citing sources for that article, I have re-reverted to my version. Please rewrite with references before reverting again, per WP:CITE. Tuf-Kat 18:39, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
chopped and screwed[edit]
Ok, now that you've reinserted the copyedit tag, what's wrong with paragraph 3? Are you going to fix it? With respect, Outlook 16:17, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
- Paragraph 3 is a disaster. It's missing a closing parenthesis, the entire paragraph is one sentence, and that one sentence does not make sense. Something terrible happens in the middle of it. It also says that a song is "from the feature film" without giving the reader any clue as to what the film is (no, it's not "Scarface", which is somewhat implied). I can't in good faith have the edit tag taken away when paragraph 3 looks like a young, uneducated child wrote it. I'll fix it when I have time, but the tag lets others perhaps get to it before me.
"Advertising" on Forced Perspective[edit]
As for your claim that I repeatedly spammed the page Forced Perspective, this ideology seams to contradict the existence of pages like that for Filmspotting, which is another blog/podcast featuring film criticism. It has its own page, an extent to which I did not go. I am a regular reader of the blog, and deemed it appropriate to consider it as a reference to the term described on the page. Please advise.
- I don't think that a 7 day old blog is a reference to anything. Eli lilly 00:18, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia. However, we remind you not to attack other editors, as you did on User talk:Krillion. Please comment on the contributions and not the contributors. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. see also WP:DICK Trusilver 17:27, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
- Regardless of whether someone is acting inappropriately or not, it does not give you license to act equally inappropriate. see WP:CIVIL. Trusilver 17:28, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
- I was not acting equally inappropriate. There was a considerable difference in the level of appropriateness. A "Welcome to Wikipedia", however, is inappropriate. I've been here since 2005. Eli lilly 17:35, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
- I know, it was to prove a point - I've looked down your entire contrib list and it's packed full of obnoxious putdowns toward others. If vandalism reverting provokes enough emotion in you to be rude to others, I suggest you look into tasks that do not. Being uncivil to vandals provokes them to come back and keep doing what they are doing, not the desired goal which is for them to stop. In other words: be nice. Trusilver 17:43, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
- I think that you are exaggerating the issue. My contrib list is not filled with putdowns to others. The edit summary may contain some biting levity but the contrib itself is always a valid contribution to the article. Don't confuse vandalism with spam. Some of the articles I am watching have serious spam problems, with near daily reversions due to the addition of the same external adsense link. Spammers replace internal wiki links with external links to their adsense page. That is +really+ hard to detect unless it is caught right when it happens. These are not innocent contributors with poor grammar or a vandal making a joke that only seems funny to him. These are people who have no problem ruining an article in an attempt to gain financially via google rank. Eli lilly 13:27, 1 August 2007 (UTC)
Electrocrunk AfD[edit]
Hi there. I was surprised to read your comments in this AfD about my edits. I was trying to fix the article. I thought the links were useful. I have no connection to any of the musicians, or the person with the conflict of interest, who created the article. Please assume good faith. Bearian 00:47, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
- I only meant to suggest that the links were not productive, not that your intention was not noble. Eli lilly 01:54, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
LL Cool J[edit]
Hi, Eli lilly. Since you made quite a few edits to LL Cool J, I thought you could be interested in this issue. Regards, Waldir talk 22:19, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, thank you for mentioning that. The BMI repertoire search will allow you to find the legal name of nearly any U.S. song.
- Thanks for your reply. I'd like you to have a second look at that section, now that I researched a little bit more and new questions arised. Cheers, Waldir talk 12:44, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
Montgomery Ward locations[edit]
I don't want the list put back in. Lists have been deleted from other pages such as Lord & Taylor, Dillard's, etc. for being largely unverifiable and full of original research. I think it would be nearly impossible to track all of them down, or to even source half of them. For instance, the only proof I have that there was ever a Wards in downtown Flint, Michigan is an old photo from the wall of a now-closed Hardee's; the only proof I have that there was ever one at South Flint Plaza in the same city came from someone's recollections on a blog. Also, Wikipedia is not meant to be a directory anyway; these arguments have been brought up before in AfDs of store listings. Furthermore, these lists just spawn additions from IPs who don't know proper Wiki markup, so a lot of the time the list just ends up b0rked by some n00b who doesn't know what he's doing.

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Alweg may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "()"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.
