Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited James Franco filmography, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page McFarland.

FLC edit

Just a gentle reminder that it's probably best to check before posting a second nom. (With two supports on your first one, you'd have got a green light, but just in case people complain, or try and post something that isn't suitable, at least there's a record you've gone through the right steps). Cheers - SchroCat (talk) 11:37, 23 February 2015 (UTC)Reply

Yeah, thanks for that and I have done it before which got passed. As for the complaint, that was when I knew almost nothing about FLC process. --FrankBoy (Buzz) 11:40, 23 February 2015 (UTC)Reply

Denis Zubrytsky edit

Hi. I see you've reverted my edits, can you point why? Denis is Russian spelling, not Ukrainian. So its quiet an absurd to write his first name in Russian spelling, while his patronymic name and surname is in ukrainian spelling.

Videos as citation sources edit

I have a question regarding the use of videos as sources. In the performers section of 84th Academy Awards list, some users (including 'Atomic Meltdown) want to put the songs (or actually singing about the Best Picture nominees in tune with popular songs) that host Billy Crystal performed in his opening monologue. Atomic Meltdown uses this article from The Hollywood Reporter as a source. The article contains a video of Billy Crystal performing the songs, but the article itself does not say or indicate word for word in the text what he is actually singing (i.e. singing about Midnight in Paris to the tune of "The Last Time I Saw Paris"). I know what Crystal sang is true, but for the sake of Wikipedia standards, is this acceptable?

--Birdienest81 (talk) 06:30, 13 March 2015 (UTC)Reply
Yes, a video can be used as a source, but only when the publisher is notable and of course reliable. --FrankBoy (Buzz) 07:33, 13 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

Awards and nominations received by Ariana Grande warring edit

Why are you revert warring with me -- especially over something like this?? I reverted an unnecessary adding of piping by Taytay9135 (a very inexperienced user who has a history making bad edits), then you revert my reversion. The link had been that way since it was first added (not by me) on 12/5/14. It was fine then and it's fine now. If it wasn't then Kww (or another admin) would have changed it by now (or maybe Tomíca would've mentioned it on the flc).

"Stop using a Wikipedia policy or rule each and everytime."?

I didn't put a link when I reverted Taytay's edit, but I knew that when I reverted yours, I needed to give credence to my edit. I don't see any reason not to do that. I wish more editors would do that.

"Complete links are better so that readers can easily understand where are they going."?

It was a "complete link". Adding a pipe doesn't change anything. And it certainly doesn't help readers to understand "where they are going". You think that if you don't agree with something you can just "ignore all rules"? It doesn't work like that. Wikipedia foremost goes by consensus. You gave a link (or attempted to anyway -- but that's fine), so let's take a look at what it says:

"Many people seem to misunderstand the spirit of the rule, and think it's a convenient excuse to ignore anything they disagree with. This goes against the intention of the rule. Essentially, WP:IAR has some things implied: (1) Don't cite Ignore All Rules for acting like an idiot. Civility always applies, and don't try to disrupt Wikipedia. (4) Don't use it to try to create rifts in the community. (5) Don't try and use it to get around WP:CONSENSUS."

So, basically the only thing (or person) right now that you have on your side is Taytay9135 -- but you can try to find consensus on the talk page. --Musdan77 (talk) 17:56, 15 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

I agree that user Taytay9135 is not an experienced editor, but that really does not mean that s/he always makes wrong edits, at least not this time. What's wrong with direct link and it will be inconsistency. Direct links in all other pages, while only one section with that. I am not edit-warring with you but you are making it a big deal. And BTW Taytay's edit does not have to be reverted all the time. I don't find it that important to discuss. Basically, there isn't much difference between them; both are the same, just that one is direct link without any redirect, while the other one is a redirect link. I am okay with both edits, but I chose direct links just for ease of the readers. --FrankBoy (Buzz) 18:41, 15 March 2015 (UTC)Reply
Well, at first I was upset when I saw that it had been changed back again, but then I saw that it was done by an IP who has now been blocked (I hope that wasn't you). I didn't say that Taytay9135 "always makes wrong edits", but yes it was that time. I have given reasons why it was. What's wrong with using unnecessary piping is just that -- it's unnecessary. Anything extraneous added to a WP article needs to be removed. And making unnecessary reverts is bad behavior. Of course you were edit-warring -- but I hope that's the last of it. --Musdan77 (talk) 16:14, 16 March 2015 (UTC)Reply
OK, again you make another unnecessary reversion. You cite the MOS, but either you stopped reading it or you conveniently left out the part that says "may be expressed either in numerals or in words". Numbers are usually spelled out on words in prose. That's preferred proper grammar (for an encyclopedia). There are some exceptions (as shown later in that section) but this instance is not one of those exceptions. But, I'm not going to pursue this because it's not worth it.
But, let me say this: When a more experienced editor reverts an edit of mine, I don't revert back. I usually will ask them, on their talk page, why they reverted it. After they tell me, if I still disagree, I will reply back, but I still don't revert it. We agree to disagree and I let it go -- because edit warring only makes things worse. Sometimes I have taken the issue to the article talk page to find consensus. I hope you will think about this the next time you consider reverting. --Musdan77 (talk) 18:49, 17 March 2015 (UTC)Reply
I have given the reasons for restoring that. "Numbers are usually spelled out on words in prose". Yes, it is, but mostly it is that numbers higher than nine are in numerical figures or in this case in the total wins and nominations of a particular person. Besides, I have written this list after many FLs, most of which I have seen use the same format. Kanye West and Rufus Wainwright as examples. I hate to argue (not hate to discuss) with users (particularly an experienced one like you) over pity things. And we're doing the same thing now. I hope that's the end of this. --ḞɾɑṇḵɃōẙ (Buzz) 20:36, 17 March 2015 (UTC)Reply
I think you meant "petty" (not "pity"). I don't think that proper encyclopedic writing style is a petty thing when writing in an encyclopedia (but then, I am a copyeditor). I don't know about "mostly", but I know that a lot of articles do have it that way. But, it doesn't matter how many do; that doesn't make it okay. I could also give examples of featured lists, so if they have it both ways, that just means that that isn't a criteria to become an FL -- so it's not necessary to be reverted. I've been trying to train you on these things, but all I get is resistance. You say that you "hate to argue" (It doesn't seem that way to me), so why do it? You didn't say anything about reverting. You seem to love to do that. Enough said. --Musdan77 (talk) 16:39, 18 March 2015 (UTC)Reply
Oops, my bad! Yes, I meant "petty" (not "pity"). We usually give the totals in figures after all the whole page is based on that (the total numbers). I think that we should word numbers below ten; that's what every page does. Not that I hate your say and like I said before, I have things to learn from you. I quite value your opinion be that anywhere. --ḞɾɑṇḵɃōẙ (Buzz) 20:37, 18 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

FrankBoy, I would like to say it was good to see you try that. Hard luck that it didn't work out well. Prashant momentorally seems to have lost his cool and he was way out of order. I would like to apologise from his part and I hope you won't feel discouraged. You did not have bad intentions clearly, but just a wrong approach I guess. Editors who have significantly contributed to the articles are generally the ones who nominate articles for FA/FL/FT (the nomination will be opposed even if the prose and stuff is perfect if the mains contributors don't consent because that is how it works). We sometimes make mistakes and we learn something new everyday, right? Your intentions were good and that is what matters. I hope you won't let this get to you and continue the good work.

So again, Its the misunderstanding. Since I worked on the topic and was still two more articles left before I would have nominated it for FT, one user nominated it. But, he did not consulted any of the main contributors. He only notified me after nominating it. There is a rule that non-contributors should consult/notify before nominatibg a topic. That's why I was so frustrated about it. I wanted nothing but deletion of that page because I wanted to make it a FT in its first attempt. It felt like a lost battle and that too without any participation. I tried to reach him saying to ask for self deletion or author.... I have/had no problems with that user. In fact he is very helpful. But, my outburst may have looked like I wanted the credit and seemed that I should have nominated...Which is not true because I had posted on that user's page notifying him that still two more articles are left to work on and only then it will be eligible for FT. That's it. I just wanted to delete that nomination page.—Prashant 02:59, 27 May 2015 (UTC)Reply

If you nominate something you have worked on, note it as a self-nomination. Nominators who are not significant contributors to the articles of the topic should consult regular editors of the articles prior to nomination. It is at the top of that page.—Prashant 03:08, 27 May 2015 (UTC)Reply
