Thanks

I find myself shocked that dispite there being a garishly large warning against changing the genre listing for disturbed without additional references, that some people continue to do so! Thank you for catching the changes :) LinaMishima 15:35, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

my appologies

Hello I appologize for changing the genre of disturbed's catagorization. I should have obeyed the warning not to. I just dislike the catagorization of nu-metal, i think alternative metal is a much better term to use.

Why did you delete it? - - 'twsx'talk'cont' 07:15, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

I deleted it because it had been in CAT:NS for 7 days, meaning that it had no source information. This is done routinely in accordance with speedy criterion I4. I will gladly restore it for you if you provide the source info. DVD+ R/W 15:26, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

Re:Disturbed reference

Hey, Yeah I will try to dig in the WWW in order to find some stuff that might give an overview of all the sources I have given. It might take a while though, but it will solve a lot of the problems that might arise. Thanks for suggesting this idea. --Zouavman Le Zouave (Talk to me!See my edits!) 07:12, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

There doesn't seem to be any order to the listings, just fans wanting "nu metal" put low. And I found this on the talk page: "The genre line is now "Hard Rock, Nu Metal, Alternative Metal"", in which the order does not even match. Call it vandalism, but you're out on a limb if you seriously think it is "generally" accepted that they now play hard rock/metal. I totally agree with Zouavman, and I think that needs serious rewording. One or two sources calling them heavy metal makes no real difference, go ask any 80s metal fans what they think of this band. A simple search on the MA even provides us with the information "Not to be confused with the mallcore band" on a thrash metal band of the same name's page (mallcore being synonymous with nu metal). My point is, that sentence is completely wrong, and just sounds like some Disturbed fan trying to get the band credibility. It wasn't vandalism, it was getting rid of false information, and that's the bottom line. --Ryouga 20:28, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

"Fact is, nu metal is a sub-genre of metal music." Haha, no, it isn't. That's just what Wikipedia and the fans say. The truth is, it is an amalgamation of various genres, the "metal" in the name really doesn't hold much, other than distorted guitars. You might dislike the Encyclopaedia Metallum, but they have a much better grasp on metal than what you may think. If we are in agreement that they really aren't "heavy metal," then changing that statement shouldn't be such a problem. It is really put as a statement, which it shouldn't be. I'm not really trying to make a point here: if I wanted to, I'd've removed heavy metal and any mention of it from the page, but that would be futile and unjustified. I doubt you see my point, but hopefully you understand that the one sentence in the opening paragraph is misleading. --Ryouga 21:13, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

Bro, I'm not here to have the entire page removed, I'm just not seeing a shed of light on that sentence, as per the sources. It seems like it was crafted to advertise new Disturbed as being "metal," which we both do not agree with either, whether sourced or not. Mentioning those genres is fine, but I guess for now I'll bring it up on talk and see what different sentences we can come up with. --Ryouga 21:22, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

I removed the {{prod}} on Idalou Independent School District and added {{Texas-school-stub}}, which seems more appropriate than proposing the article's deletion. --TruthbringerToronto (Talk | contribs) 01:46, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Disturbed-userpage-tws.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Disturbed-userpage-tws.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.

Hello. You have reverted what you thought to be vandalism on the David Draiman article. However, it is not vandalism. See the talk page for more information (where my source is given).

Goodtones

The interview is sufficient proof. I have the magazine on my desk right beside me and Draiman clearly points out that he is homosexual. The article doesn't belong to you. Metal Edge magazine wouldn't make an insult on Draiman since they are very much interested in Alternative Metal bands like Disturbed, System Of A Down, Slipknot... Why shouldn't this part be added into the article? It's not used as an insult, and it's definitely not attacking Draiman's image (except if you look at this from a homophobic point of view). I am putting back the statement.

Goodtones

I posted the quote on the talk page. If all unsourced content was to be removed from the article, then the article should be blank. If you cannot accept the fact that Draiman is gay, then maybe you are taking this too personally. I will try to look for a source, but until then, I am putting back the statement for there is no reason to take it off the article. Goodtones 09:09, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

I am not trying to cause any conflict. You are telling me that I am using this as a derogative term, however I am myself gay and fan of Disturbed. There is no logical reason for me to attack Draiman's image. I should also remind you to assume good faith. I gave a source on the talk page that clearly establishes Draiman's homosexuality. I think it is a very important fact about Draiman and that ommiting it would be a mistake (for people generally tend to consider heterosexuality as normal). The entire article has no references, so why erase only this particular sentence? I think you are taking this personally (I have seen that you are also a Disturbed fan) and that you do not accept the fact that Draiman is gay. Could this end before it goes to further authorities? Goodtones 16:02, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

Just letting you know that you failed your duty as a wikipedia administrator today. Not only did you not care to acquire an overview of the debate, which would have lead to no consensus, you also failed to really read it. None of the keep votes gave any weightily base. WP:PORNBIO, which still is the official guideline for pornstar biographies is failed at one hundert percent, regardless, you let yourself be overwhelmed by the massive amount of keep votes by 15 year old porn lovers, who, whatever one may think of those people, do not put the common good of an important encyclopaedia over their own affection for these surreal women. Although I have always had a high opinion of almost all wikipedia administrators and I will keep doing so, you, sir, have shown great incompetence in dealing with the matter, and you are a shame to your kind. I don't think I care enough for the subject to pursue it any further, but even though I know you won't care for my opinion towards you and you will dismiss it right away, I needed to tell you this. Regards, ~ | twsx | talkcont | 14:45, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

Wow. What a horrible, incivil comment to find on my talk page. I can assure you I read the AfD thoroughly, and if you have a problem with it, don't come running to me to whine about it. Take it to WP:DRV like any other user would. How dare you tell me I have "failed", and shown "great incompetence"? Let me point you to WP:NPA, WP:CIVIL and WP:IDON'TLIKEIT. Majorly (o rly?) 14:54, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
The quote "don't come running to me to whine about it" is just as u(i)ncivil. Nevertheless, i'm sorry, I was just a little late with calming down.
I dare calling you those things because they are true. I was actually surprised that anyone could not only not decide for delete, but also skip the no consensus level. The circumstances are absolutely obvious and clear. Article fails the given requirements without an exception, case closed. But probably you can tell me what made you decide against the policy, and maybe i can even understand it? ~ | twsx | talkcont | 15:10, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

I guess apologies for the personal attack are in order. Sorry. Everything else stands. ~ | twsx | talkcont | 14:56, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

I can't really see what the problem is. Even if it was no consensus it would still have been kept. Majorly (o rly?) 15:00, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
I am aware of that. I only pointed out that you two-way failed handling the decision, despite the fact that it doesn't make any difference. ~ | twsx | talkcont | 15:11, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
I didn't fail. I may have written the wrong result (which I don't believe I did), but I didn't fail. Please stop saying I did because I didn't. Majorly (o rly?) 15:18, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
Then explain, 4 paragraphs above. ~ | twsx | talkcont | 15:37, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
WP:DRV is the best place to go. I already said, I looked at every comment and thought the keeps were stronger. Majorly (o rly?) 15:44, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
I have already addressed my intentions regarding further persuasion. Are you unable to justify your decision, or why can you not answer my question? ~ | twsx | talkcont | 16:36, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
I went with the consensus, which was keep if you discounted the "I don't like it" votes. I didn't go against policy. Please take it to WP:DRV like I asked; I have no wish to continue discussing this, I have no preference of whether the article stays or not, and I'd rather other users discussed it if you are unhappy with the result. Majorly (o rly?) 16:41, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

You got all angry or whatever about me creating a page for this band, yet you allow Green Day, and many other, even small band have pages? So why can't this one? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by SidxViscious (talkcontribs) 02:34, 11 March 2007 (UTC).

Image:AnthonyAnderson_hbo-entourage2_nyc_premiere.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:AnthonyAnderson_hbo-entourage2_nyc_premiere.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

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

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. ˉˉanetode╦╩ 04:58, 13 March 2007 (UTC)


List of Chieftains of the Jurchens

Grüezi wohl ! I was starting to write that article and you quickly conclude that it was an Unneeded listcruft one, i also add a relevant reference as well, many Chinese references also exist. Do not anticipate so quickly. Wiedersehen ! Whlee 13:41, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

You may want to have more content ready before you start an artile next time OR tag the article as under construction. I think the speedy was perfectly justified at the moment of tagging. In any case, no harm done.
PS: You should read Plenk. ~ | twsx | talkcont | 16:46, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

Hi, I just removed a personal attack on myself from the said page. Please don't make unnecessary attacks on me, it doesn't help anything. Thank you. Majorly (o rly?) 22:24, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

I don't really care for your opinion, i guess thats what we have in common. Allthough you failed greatly on that AFD, i guess you generally are aware of wikipedia policies, and therefor i'll just assume that the statement on the logpage does consitute as breach of policy and you editing it is perfectly acceptable. Changed it, describing the decision incompetent, instead of the person. ~ | twsx | talkcont | 00:24, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
We've been through this, I did not fail greatly. Just because you wanted the article to go does not mean it necessarily should. Please stop making ad hominem attacks and let the matter drop. You can always nominate it again. Majorly (o rly?) 07:46, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
That's a good one! However, the person who keeps trying to push the matter is you. I have no intention of assaulting you again (about which i, again, am truely sorry), nor to take it to DRV, probably not even to re-nominate it, i'm just logging stuff for future reference... ~ | twsx | talkcont | 12:19, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
I don't mind you logging it, what I do mind is you saying it was against policy which it wasn't. Majorly (o rly?) 13:55, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
I'm sorry that you mind, but as i removed every kind of personal attack, i think this is none of your concern. ~ | twsx | talkcont | 14:00, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
"...decision to keep against policy was made by User:Majorly..." That staement is incorrect. Please change/remove it. Majorly (o rly?) 14:07, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
You still haven't removed it. Please do so, or I will. Thanks. Majorly (o rly?) 15:47, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Read before speedying

Re your listing of TMB Optical. I suggest that you actually read the CSD that you invoke before applying it. That page contains no inappropriate content whatsoever. See talk page as well. Kosebamse 13:31, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Suggestion registered. No comment. ~ | twsx | talkcont | 13:54, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

I agree with Kosebamse. The lip loop is the second BDSM related article of mine that a speedy deletion template was placed on, the first was by William Henry Harrison. Both was within a minute of their creation. It is clear that a bunch of people are running rampant placing some objection on every new article they find 'inappropriate' under the false assumption that it makes things easier to manage, your excuse is "no real relevance or notability". Wtf? Just read the damn thing before nominating it for speedy deletion. It's very relevant to a specific category and you're only making things worse for administrators by nominating articles you didn't even read for speedy deletion. Thanks. PS: before you complain about me tarnishing your talk page with fetish articles maybe this would make you think twice next time before clicking edit and save. -Biophase 23:41, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

Yo, i ned sum help here

eh man, what up? i need to pimp my user´s page with sum userboxes, how the hell can i put them on my user´s page??? i need to pimp it, NOW!!!!!!!!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Raidentheninja (talkcontribs)

Hello. You can find a big collection of userboxes for all kinds of categories at WP:UBX. Apart from that i need to seriously suggest that you watch your grammar a little bit when writing comments (no offense from my part, honestly, but you WILL offend other people writing like that). Also, remember to sign your posts! ~ | twsx | talkcont | 23:50, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Eugene Grebenik

Hello, Twsx.

I noticed that you had placed "importance" and "unreferenced" tags on this article.

I'm curious about your reasoning. The article, as it stood when you tagged it, made several claims of notability and was well referenced. Or am I missing something? Thanks! DavidCBryant 17:44, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

That's funny, i can only find one, and it's very vague. ~ | twsx | talkcont | 23:13, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
OK, I'll be more specific. The article says that Mr. Grebenik was
  • "a central figure in the development of demography in Britain"
  • "the first director of the British Civil Service College"
  • [a recipient of] "the Farr medal and prize"
  • [coauthor of] "The Trend and Pattern of Fertility in Great Britain (1954), ... a landmark in cohort analysis"
  • "secretary-general of the International Union for the Scientific Study of Population from 1963 to 1973"
So I count five notable achievements in the bio. You could only see one? DavidCBryant 19:03, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
Those are not references, those are unreferenced weightily statements. The tags should be reinstated, as there are zero reliable sources to base the claims. However, the article is not of really big notability, so i'll leave it. ~ | twsx | talkcont | 23:43, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

about my gangsta style

thatnks, for the advice, and it´s not that i don´t know to write correctly, it´s just that i like to look like a gangsta, you know, i like that style, but anyway, you are right about it. And i´ll try to pimp my user´s page, but i guess i´ll need some help anyway, because i´m new on this. and about signing my coments, i just didn´t sing my last comment because i wanted to know if you remembered me Anyway, take care man, see ya. raidentheninja check my youtube´s videos!!!!!!!!!!! 22:27, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

WP:PORNBIO, which still is the official guideline for pornstar biographies is failed at one hundert percent, regardless, you let yourself be overwhelmed by the massive amount of keep votes by 15 year old porn lovers, who, whatever one may think of those people, do not put the common good of an important encyclopaedia over their own affection for these surreal women. Although I have always had a high opinion of almost all wikipedia administrators and I will keep doing so, you, sir, have shown great incompetence in dealing with the matter, and you are a shame to your kind. I don't think I care enough for the subject to pursue it any further, but even though I know you won't care for my opinion towards you and you will dismiss it right away, I needed to tell you this. Regards, ~ | twsx | talkcont | 14:45, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

Wow. What a horrible, incivil comment to find on my talk page. I can assure you I read the AfD thoroughly, and if you have a problem with it, don't come running to me to whine about it. Take it to WP:DRV like any other user would. How dare you tell me I have "failed", and shown "great incompetence"? Let me point you to WP:NPA, WP:CIVIL and WP:IDON'TLIKEIT. Majorly (o rly?) 14:54, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
The quote "don't come running to me to whine about it" is just as u(i)ncivil. Nevertheless, i'm sorry, I was just a little late with calming down.
I dare calling you those things because they are true. I was actually surprised that anyone could not only not decide for delete, but also skip the no consensus level. The circumstances are absolutely obvious and clear. Article fails the given requirements without an exception, case closed. But probably you can tell me what made you decide against the policy, and maybe i can even understand it? ~ | twsx | talkcont | 15:10, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

I guess apologies for the personal attack are in order. Sorry. Everything else stands. ~ | twsx | talkcont | 14:56, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

I can't really see what the problem is. Even if it was no consensus it would still have been kept. Majorly (o rly?) 15:00, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
I am aware of that. I only pointed out that you two-way failed handling the decision, despite the fact that it doesn't make any difference. ~ | twsx | talkcont | 15:11, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
I didn't fail. I may have written the wrong result (which I don't believe I did), but I didn't fail. Please stop saying I did because I didn't. Majorly (o rly?) 15:18, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
Then explain, 4 paragraphs above. ~ | twsx | talkcont | 15:37, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
WP:DRV is the best place to go. I already said, I looked at every comment and thought the keeps were stronger. Majorly (o rly?) 15:44, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
I have already addressed my intentions regarding further persuasion. Are you unable to justify your decision, or why can you not answer my question? ~ | twsx | talkcont | 16:36, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
I went with the consensus, which was keep if you discounted the "I don't like it" votes. I didn't go against policy. Please take it to WP:DRV like I asked; I have no wish to continue discussing this, I have no preference of whether the article stays or not, and I'd rather other users discussed it if you are unhappy with the result. Majorly (o rly?) 16:41, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

You got all angry or whatever about me creating a page for this band, yet you allow Green Day, and many other, even small band have pages? So why can't this one? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by SidxViscious (talkcontribs) 02:34, 11 March 2007 (UTC).

Image:AnthonyAnderson_hbo-entourage2_nyc_premiere.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:AnthonyAnderson_hbo-entourage2_nyc_premiere.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

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

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. ˉˉanetode╦╩ 04:58, 13 March 2007 (UTC)


List of Chieftains of the Jurchens

Grüezi wohl ! I was starting to write that article and you quickly conclude that it was an Unneeded listcruft one, i also add a relevant reference as well, many Chinese references also exist. Do not anticipate so quickly. Wiedersehen ! Whlee 13:41, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

You may want to have more content ready before you start an artile next time OR tag the article as under construction. I think the speedy was perfectly justified at the moment of tagging. In any case, no harm done.
PS: You should read Plenk. ~ | twsx | talkcont | 16:46, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

Hi, I just removed a personal attack on myself from the said page. Please don't make unnecessary attacks on me, it doesn't help anything. Thank you. Majorly (o rly?) 22:24, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

I don't really care for your opinion, i guess thats what we have in common. Allthough you failed greatly on that AFD, i guess you generally are aware of wikipedia policies, and therefor i'll just assume that the statement on the logpage does consitute as breach of policy and you editing it is perfectly acceptable. Changed it, describing the decision incompetent, instead of the person. ~ | twsx | talkcont | 00:24, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
We've been through this, I did not fail greatly. Just because you wanted the article to go does not mean it necessarily should. Please stop making ad hominem attacks and let the matter drop. You can always nominate it again. Majorly (o rly?) 07:46, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
That's a good one! However, the person who keeps trying to push the matter is you. I have no intention of assaulting you again (about which i, again, am truely sorry), nor to take it to DRV, probably not even to re-nominate it, i'm just logging stuff for future reference... ~ | twsx | talkcont | 12:19, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
I don't mind you logging it, what I do mind is you saying it was against policy which it wasn't. Majorly (o rly?) 13:55, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
I'm sorry that you mind, but as i removed every kind of personal attack, i think this is none of your concern. ~ | twsx | talkcont | 14:00, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
"...decision to keep against policy was made by User:Majorly..." That staement is incorrect. Please change/remove it. Majorly (o rly?) 14:07, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
You still haven't removed it. Please do so, or I will. Thanks. Majorly (o rly?) 15:47, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Read before speedying

Re your listing of TMB Optical. I suggest that you actually read the CSD that you invoke before applying it. That page contains no inappropriate content whatsoever. See talk page as well. Kosebamse 13:31, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

eh man, what up? i need to pimp my user´s page with sum userboxes, how the hell can i put them on my user´s page??? i need to pimp it, NOW!!!!!!!!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Raidentheninja (talkcontribs)

Hello. You can find a big collection of userboxes for all kinds of categories at WP:UBX. Apart from that i need to seriously suggest that you watch your grammar a little bit when writing comments (no offense from my part, honestly, but you WILL offend other people writing like that). Also, remember to sign your posts! ~ | twsx | talkcont | 23:50, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Eugene Grebenik

Hello, Twsx.

I noticed that you had placed "importance" and "unreferenced" tags on this article.

I'm curious about your reasoning. The article, as it stood when you tagged it, made several claims of notability and was well referenced. Or am I missing something? Thanks! DavidCBryant 17:44, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

That's funny, i can only find one, and it's very vague. ~ | twsx | talkcont | 23:13, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
OK, I'll be more specific. The article says that Mr. Grebenik was
  • "a central figure in the development of demography in Britain"
  • "the first director of the British Civil Service College"
  • [a recipient of] "the Farr medal and prize"
  • [coauthor of] "The Trend and Pattern of Fertility in Great Britain (1954), ... a landmark in cohort analysis"
  • "secretary-general of the International Union for the Scientific Study of Population from 1963 to 1973"
So I count five notable achievements in the bio. You could only see one? DavidCBryant 19:03, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
Those are not references, those are unreferenced weightily statements. The tags should be reinstated, as there are zero reliable sources to base the claims. However, the article is not of really big notability, so i'll leave it. ~ | twsx | talkcont | 23:43, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

about my gangsta style

thatnks, for the advice, and it´s not that i don´t know to write correctly, it´s just that i like to look like a gangsta, you know, i like that style, but anyway, you are right about it. And i´ll try to pimp my user´s page, but i guess i´ll need some help anyway, because i´m new on this. and about signing my coments, i just didn´t sing my last comment because i wanted to know if you remembered me Anyway, take care man, see ya. raidentheninja check my youtube´s videos!!!!!!!!!!! 22:27, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

Disturbed edits

Evening. I don't particularly feel like getting into an edit war, I thought I'd come and query your actions here. I'm not sure why you're removing the charts table in the Disturbed article, as it seems perfectly worthy of inclusion. You stated that you're reverting it "as discussed", yet I can't find any mention of it on the talk page or in the talk page archives. If you could kindly reply back here or on my talk page, it'd be most appreciated. Cheers, -Panser Born- (talk) 23:03, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

[looky read] - In a nutshell, but i think it provides all the reasoning needed. This is hard to source, and doing so would be nonsense anyway. The info is as irrelevant as it is vague, looking at the heavy changes the positions underwent long time after they actually were in the charts. Probably you also should look up again some of the policies around here. ~ | twsx | talkcont | 23:03, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

Ah, I see - I'm not sure how I managed to miss that conversation! In that case, when I've got a bit of spare time (probably tomorrow), I'll get it all cited - I already know of a source for it. By the way, what policies are you referring to in your last sentence? As far as I'm aware, there aren't any forbidding the inclusion of chart tables, as they exist in many articles on bands. -Panser Born- (talk) 23:11, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

You should bring this up on the existing discussion first. Sourcing the single chart positions to keep them is totally over the top. -> WP:AGF ~ | twsx | talkcont | 23:19, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image (Image:Mugshot anderson anthony.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Mugshot anderson anthony.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 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 any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 04:25, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

John Moyer

I just moved the content created by user:Comtheo to the John Moyer (comedian) page, and I was going to move the (original) content at John Moyer to John Moyer (bassist), and then change John Moyer to a disambig page. I agree with you about the notability/style issue with the comedian's stuff. Flyguy649talkcontribs 14:32, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

I just saw what you wrote about the user's creation of the article under the other name. I still suggest moving John Moyer to John Moyer (bassist), and leaving John Moyer as a redirect for now. BTW I am not an admin. I warned Comtheo about the vandalism and have reported to WP:AIV. Flyguy649talkcontribs 14:50, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
No problem. I thought that the guy might pay attention to a neutral editor. Nope. He used 3 or 4 socks to try to push the content! Cheers, Flyguy649talkcontribs 17:23, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

John Moyer

Lighten up... There are several extensive articles on Wikipedia that reference John Moyer. The Singles Ward, The R.M. and Mobsters and Mormons. He is an individual responsible for the creation of the comedy genre in the LDS Cinema movement and is extremely noteable as a filmaker in that realm. Previously all references to John Moyer on those pages were attributed to the wrong John Moyer. Now there is a means by which the correct John Moyer (stand up comedian) can be referenced and linked to on those pages and you are still freaking out about it. There are more than two noteable John Moyers here. So everybody needs to just get along and accept that. This is a reasonable solution. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.199.4.149 (talk) 16:26, 16 May 2007 (UTC).

Repeat yourself as often as you want. He seems totally unworthy of an article to me, and as far as the last ~12 times go, other wikipedians agree. PS: You should read up on how to use wikipedia talk pages and how to sign comments. ~ | twsx | talkcont | 16:56, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
So are the three movies that he's been involved with as well as helping to pioneer a genre among a religious group vis-a-vis LDS Cinema unworthy of articles too? Is so, then you should ask for those to be deleted as well. Bu it's OK to have those extensive articles, just not one on an indivdual involved in creating those films? comedytheorem 17:13, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
As of now, for my part, i "evaluate" (for the range of my opinion and capabilities that is) the notability of this one article. Other articles = another topic. The fact that you vandalized an article two dozen times and created 4 other articles around a total of another dozen times can, i think, only be interpeted as you having a special devotion to that guy, and personal admiration does not belong to an objective job such as editing on wikipedia. You need to let go. ~ | twsx | talkcont | 17:17, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
The same can be said of you over your devotion to the band Disturbed and your constant tempter tantrums and your version of your own forms of vandalism. All I am doing is rightfully crediting an indivdual who has other articles written about his accomplishments. And you didn't answer my question, you only started in with ad hominem attacks. If you are so committed to objective editing on wikipedia, then why are you so not willing to have the correct information listed about the individual responsible for these films in these articles: The Singles Ward, The R.M. and Mobsters and Mormons. Or do you only want information provided that you like? I've offered a reasonable solution to this problem, yet you are the one who insists on not letting it go. comedytheorem 17:39, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
Ad hominem, so strong words, while i didn't attack you at all.. Offered a solution? You broke several wikipedia guidelines, vandalized a long existing article multiple times, and do not obey the public consensus. I have had differences with other users or even administrators, but if 10 different people told me i was wrong, i have accepted it. You should do that too. (Can't answer on your TP as your account has already been blocked apparently). ~ | twsx | talkcont | 20:25, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

You still never answered the question. If you are so concerned about objective editing on Wikipedia then why is OK to have three articles about three movies that John Moyer is responsible for writing, and or producing, and directing? Articles that many people have contributed to, why is NOT OK to have a page about the individual that is responsible for those movies? I don't see you demanding those articles be removed because they are of no consequence and are not noteable. If you reason that the articles about The Singles Ward, The R.M. and Mobsters and Mormons then there should be an article about their creator. Now please answer the question posed. ComedytheoremJR 22:35, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

Know i will not answer to your messages anymore. Don't take it personal, but i find no sense, but redundancy in trying to talk to you. ~ | twsx | talkcont | 22:53, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

Just to let you know, I've removed the prod template you placed on this page. The edit before yours in the article history was an editor removing a previous prod template. If the prod template is removed it shouldn't be replaced. It's worth checking the history before you place a prod tag and always mention in your edit summary that you have prodded the article and why. If you think this article should still be deleted you should list it at WP:AFD. Cheers, Paxse 19:39, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

Thought i did. Thanks for the heads-up, taking article to AFD. ~ | twsx | talkcont | 20:01, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

Bellotti v Baird

You tagged this article with a speedy delete template literally seconds after I created it. I think the subject is notable, and I would appreciate time to expand the article before it is unilaterally executed. Verkhovensky 23:34, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

Understood. You might however consider using the preview function the next time, and not start the article until it is in a state that does not get the attention of NP patrolers. If that is uncomfortable for you, a personal sandbox in your User namespace is a great tool. Sorry for the inconvenience. ~ | twsx | talkcont | 23:40, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

Hi there. This page is now under creation. I'm still a relative novice in these matters, and was intending to seek advice at the conclusion; but please feel free to make any alterations or amendments that you may feel are necessary while the process is underway. Regards Clio the Muse 00:19, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

Hello again, Twsx. This page is now complete and I have taken the liberty of removing your tags. I hope that is OK? Please feel free to add anything else you wish. I'm also asking some others for the benefit of their editorial advice. Clio the Muse 02:07, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

Hi. I've removed your speedy tag from Lip loop. In the future when you tag things, please make sure they are actually covered under one of the criteria for speedy deletion. It makes it much easier for me to burn through them and keep the backlogs small. Also, as that page says, "[...] some Wikipedians create articles in multiple saves, so try to avoid deleting a page too soon after its initial creation." Please give editors a little more room. Thanks, William Pietri 03:50, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

Say, I just had to remove your speedy tag from LACORS, too. In addition to giving people more time, I'd suggest you also try to stay involved in the articles you tag so that you can help editors resolve the problems you're pointing out. Also, please put in an edit summary, so that people looking at watchlists and page histories can tell what you've done. Thanks, William Pietri 04:03, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

Your NPWatcher Application

Dear Twsx,

Thank you for applying for NPWatcher! Unfortunately, your application has been declined because of the lack of understanding of policy shown in the above thread. NPW is a powerful tool, so we need to be sure that it will be used only in line with policy.
