MPAA ratings

Ratings are only notable on Wikipedia when they are somehow controversial. In the case of the Manhunt 2 video game for instance, or the movie Live Free or Die Hard. Wikipedia is not a movie guide. It doesn't need to give advice to people whether a movie is suitable for their children. Also, English Wikipedia is not USA biased. The MPAA rating is of no significance to Canadians and Britons etc. I'm from the Netherlands for example. The Simpsons movie is rated All Ages here, but would that be of any use to you as an American if I added that to the article?--Atlan (talk) 22:40, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hornetman, you're sinking back into the "my morals are right, protecting the children, etc." thing again. Please, like we've said, And you agreed to, when someone asks you to stop doing something, make sure you're in the right --ʇuǝɯɯoɔɐqǝɟ 22:45, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I can respect that, I was simply warning you to make sure you don't get in deeper. That said, it would take up far too much space to list all the possible ratings for a movie on the template without making it a huge PITA. When an article warrants it, we can make a section on the ratings, like Atlan said, when they are controversial. If people want to know if a movie is appropriate for their families, there are dozens of other sites that are better suited to being able to have the POV it takes to say something is immoral --ʇuǝɯɯoɔɐqǝɟ 22:55, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Terror level

Actually, I shouldn't have said that. However, it is already stated twice in the article that the current U.S. terror level is Elevated; there's no need to state that in the lede section. Also, when you're writing edit summaries, try not to use all caps and lots of exclamation points. --Coredesat 01:03, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

So u saying it should be apart of it or shouldn't?--Hornetman16 01:05, 6 July 2007 (UTC)![reply]
Current threat level should not be included, per WP:MoS. Wikipedia:Avoid statements that will date quickly and Wikipedia:Recentism should give you a feel for why this is. / edgarde 01:14, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Okay.--Hornetman16 01:16, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

C'mon.

This is obviously unencyclopedic, and besides no one will ever look the article up using that title. Can you request a speedy deletion for this? Adding {{db-redirmisnomer}}, {{db-attack}} or {{db-test}} to the article page will do the job.

Any pages linking to this title should be fixed as well. / edgarde 01:33, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

48 Hours

no. People could see that for themselves, the dab page is not a dictionary listing, it should lead to other articles with similar names --ʇuǝɯɯoɔɐqǝɟ 20:38, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, thanks for giving absolutely no value to my edits and explanations, Hornetman. I guess next time I won't even bother with an edit summary. It's also great to see you're going round my back to discuss this rather than with me. Keep it up.--Atlan (talk) 22:15, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I was going for a second opinion like my Final Coditions stated to do if I didn't agree with something.--Hornetman16 22:30, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

That's fine. But it's rather uncouth to completely skip discussing with the person you have a difference of opinion with. This is more like shopping for someone that agrees with you. Also, you could've just read WP:DAB and all would have been clear. Anyway, I'll take back my overly sarcastic remarks. I know you meant no harm. Next time, don't be afraid to ask me for an explanation on my talk page though (or address the matter in the article's talk page).--Atlan (talk) 22:40, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, you should talk to people about things, not just go running off to someone, that's more if you're dealing with something you think is vandalism. Do take other people's advice --ʇuǝɯɯoɔɐqǝɟ 22:42, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Offering to help

Hey Hornetman ... I thought long and hard about it after looking through the events on your talk page earlier this week, and figured that since I speak your language (in more ways than one), I'd be willing to informally adopt you. Seems that there's a lot of people willing to help out ... but please, let them help you. Blueboy96 00:55, 8 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I will think about it over the course of the next week.--Hornetman16 07:22, 8 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
