Redirect answer

Hi! I had to take a look at the article in question, but I thought I knew the answer even before I did. It started out as a non-article from the so-called B-Movie Bandit. The guy was one of the most annoying trolls on all the Internet but his nonsense seems to have subsided. An admin suggested that some of these could be made into redirects until a better article came along, which it has. Hope this helps! - Lucky 6.9 21:34, 7 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Nbranden.jpg. I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag. Could you add one to let us know its copyright status? (You can use {{gfdl}} if you release it under the GFDL, or {{fairuse}} if you claim fair use, etc.) If you don't know what any of this means, just let me know where you got the images and I'll tag them for you. Thanks so much, Tagishsimon (talk) 00:00, 23 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Hi, I've created a LGBT noticeboard for wikipedians to post issues and concerns. Please take a look. Thanks. -- Samuel Wantman 08:09, 8 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Origin of "Chuck Cunningham syndrome"

Redfarmer,

Following my own suggestion on Talk:Chuck Cunningham syndrome, I would like to ask if you have a source for this term as it has been suggested the article be renamed because no one can find any evidence it was in wide enough use prior to the article.

Are you still out there? You appear not to have contributed in eight months. Daniel Case 19:22, 21 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Greetings. I'm just dropping a line to all Louisville residents I can find to ask them to consider joining the new WikiProject Louisville. It has been determined there is a *lot* of work to do yet remaining for Louisville-related subjects, and therefore we would definitely appreciate your presence. If by chance you are unable to join us, that's all right, but if you can, please tell other Louisvillians about this worthy project. Thank you for your time! —  Stevie is the man!  Talk | Work 00:58, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Alvin Smedley.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Alvin Smedley.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 09:03, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

CSI Miami edits

I am a little concerned over your creation of a lot of smaller subsections to cover information that - by itself is rather anemic. As well, I am a little concerned over the scope of the changes being made. I agree that changes are necessary, but perhaps you might find that involving your fellow editors is going toassist you greatly in dealing with possible reversions to your edits, reinstating prior editions. Please understand that I think that 95% of what you are doing is solid - you just need to discuss the edits more in depth before you do them. Failing to do so is how edit-wars are born. - Arcayne (cast a spell) 23:49, 28 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think you missed my point. I saw the bit where you noted that clean-up needed to take place. What I was saying in at least two places was theat you needed to discuss what you were going to do ahead of time - before you did it. For example, the resulting filming section is anemic, containing two, short sentences, and is quite likely going to be folded back into anoother part of the article soon enough. If you are going to take the responsibility for creating a new section, discuss the changes first, and then fill it with more than two sentences culled from the previous version of the article. That's part of the clean-up, too. - Arcayne (cast a spell) 23:57, 28 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
As I said before, i think that 95% of what you are doing is fine. What I keep saying is that you should discuss your edits BEFORE making them. yes, you are patterning it off another article. When you notice something is going to end up as a stub, go to the discussion page and get some insight from your fellow editors. The sun will still come up tomorrow and Wikipedia will not explode in a flaming ball of internetical light if the matter goes unresolved for a few days. rest assured that it will get resolved eventually. let people know what you are doing, or, in this case, what you have specifically done. It helps others note get upset. You need to discuss beforehand, not just notify. - Arcayne (cast a spell) 00:09, 29 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
As for the stubs, this would be one of those perfect examples of where discussing the issue should take place in the discussion page. this is exactly what happens when you don't inform before doing large-scale edits - bit issues pop up. Let's now go o the article discussion area. - Arcayne (cast a spell) 00:13, 29 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
