Comments

Would you mind commenting here? They're thinking about re-opening that poll about the NFL infoboxes. Quadzilla99 21:54, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

Toronto Raptors

Hi there! The FA nomination has actually been re-set, kindly re-cast your vote at Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Toronto Raptors. Thank you. Chensiyuan 04:33, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

Serious question

It says on your userpage that you are a Wikipedia exclusionist, defined as "a philosophy held by some Wikipedians that seeks to maximize the usefulness of an article by removing irrelevant or superfluous information." So why do you keep adding the manga reference to the LaDainian Tomlinson article? In particular, the line "[t]he devious captain, Hiruma, even lied that the eyeshield was for eyestrain" is superfluous at best and seems at odds with your editing philosophy. --Rubber cat 23:40, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

I apologize for assuming that you had re-added the manga thing multiple times. Please accept this rose as a token of apology --> @-}-- --Rubber cat 03:55, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

Linkin Park Genre

Please see the edit history in regards to Alternative Rock. I provided 4 separate sources for them being under that genre -- please pick one, as 3 of them are reputable. Enfestid 02:44, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

Madden weapons feature

The list if a feature of the game. How is that not okay to be present? I'm gonna add it back if you can't tell me a good reason to exclude it.Chris Nelson 17:54, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

Reference for S.T.A.R.S./Joseph Frost

Hi, ShadowJester. I saw that you deleted that sentence from the S.T.A.R.S. article about Frost being a former member of Bravo Team. I understand why that is, although I also know that this statement is true. Here, this is from the Prima Official Strategy Guide: "A former member of the S.T.A.R.S. Bravo Team, and stationed at Raccoon City before the recent unfortunate happenings, Frost was promoted to vehicle specialist for the Alpha Team. This swift promotion didn't sit well with many in Bravo Team, but Captain Wesker himself was responsible. Frost is immature for his age, but enthusiastic and very curious. Bravo Team members joke that his curiosity could be his downfall."

No problem. I didn't make the addition, I just thought since you're the only person apparently maintaining the article in question you'd like to know. Gamer Junkie 18:01, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

Linkin Park

Oh i forgot to cite it. Sharmask7777 05:39, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

Jeffrey Jordan

We'll probably need to re-write the opening sentence too then right? Quadzilla99 21:46, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

I guess we could just leave it the way it is now for a month or two should be fine. COuld also be "amateur basketball player formerly of...with plans to attend..." That's pretty cool Jordan was at your graduation. I'd probably stare a whole through him if I ever got that close to him. Quadzilla99 15:42, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

Michael Barrett

Please don't remove unsourced tags if you don't provide sources. Corvus cornix 07:32, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

There was no indication that the same source applied to two sections. There should have been seperate footnotes. Corvus cornix 07:49, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

Kewl. That edit works. Corvus cornix 07:54, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

Carlos Zambrano

So what is your problem with Carlos? I think you have a good observation on the excessive amount of quotes, but why ruin the article - it is after all a biography? Zambrano is probably the most quotable person around the Cubs since Harry Carry passed away, and you don't want any of them published? Also, you've ripped out the game log - what gives? We're all disappointed with this season, but just ripping apart the page on Wiki seems immature.Terren Peterson

Yes - I think you should revert back the changes, but please do provide feedback on the discussion section - you have some good points. I'm fine with cleaning up the article, including removing irrelevant quotes, citing references, moving some content down to subpages, etc. It is a shame that articles on Zambrano are larger than those of HOF'ers like Ryne Sandberg and Fergie Jenkins, but that has more to do with not having digitized content than the quality of the player.Terren Peterson

Hot debate going on at Template talk:Infobox NFL player

Appreciated your valuable input during the last flame up at Template talk:Infobox NFL player. I was hoping you would weigh in on the current one. — x a n d e r e r 21:33, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

You nuked 75% of the Chester Bennington article

I'm pretty surprised, though I think you must have some reason for doing it. Could you clarify that? TheKillerAngel 03:51, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

Makes sense now. TheKillerAngel 03:59, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

Cubs Game Log Removals

Ahhh... once again you're playing editor on my pages. What policy are you thinking this violates. I'm planning on pushing details out of the main player pages so that the articles don't appear too long and now you want them deleted? Some people (including myself) are very big into statistics, and want to see the trends for individual starts. This is good information to be in an encylopedia - just ask Bill James. Terren Peterson 22:36, 14 June 2007

Why you removed the information from Chester Bennington article?

Even i am suprised to see a jist of information about Chester Bennington. Please tell us why did you removed the information.

Re: Linkin park live in new york

You're right - looks this is a bootleg recording[1] of a Linkin Park AOL concert[2], and therefore appropriately speedy tagged. Thanks for researching it.--Kubigula (talk) 04:05, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

Plot from Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles

Did you even check the updated references before removing the new information? Prime Blue 9:30, 25 June 2007 (GMT)

The sentence about the story ("The story will be told from Umbrella's point of view") and the characters ("All characters from the first three Resident Evil titles will appear in their respective stages") was reported in the original Famitsu article, which is referenced above.

No pictures of Carlos Oliveira have been shown, he was only announced in the MAN!AC article. Note that his character box doesn't contain the note Leon's, Claire's and Ada's did ("Character has yet to be confirmed for The Umbrella Chronicles"). Also, MAN!AC is a credible source: They had an exclusive Wesker artwork never before seen anywhere else and even conducted an interview with Masachika Kawata.

The character Red Queen has been confirmed via Tara Platt's website and has been referenced, but obviously not checked by you. Prime Blue 11:58, 25 June 2007 (GMT)

Aside from observing the rules of WP:Cite, now I fully understand. How could I ever even think that the Red Queen being a confirmed character is relevant? Of course Carlos Oliveira having been shown, which is outright wrong, is more important to the article.

Also, if you think the new characters don't belong in the plot section then create one but do not simply delete them (while still keeping the others, which is even more illogical). Prime Blue 19:23, 25 June 2007 (GMT)

Im gunna miss him too. :(

Resident Evil 5 info

Hey, why did you take out the RE5 info about Characters and storyline? It was written as speculative information, and properly referenced. Given that theres not much information about RE5, it seems fair to add whatever tidbits are around. Would you consider re-adding the information I added?

Cheers, SaxonSwine.

Bennington discrepancies

The articles that are saying that Jaime is four are wrong, they are confusing him with Draven, who was four at the time that Tyler was born. Also, if you look on LinkinLady [3] you can see Jaime, who is definitely not a small child. I'm just using common sense with the second one (and not trying to come across as rude with that statement) since he has been married to Talinda since '05, there is no way that Jaime can be her son. There are a few rumors that he is from a relationship before Chester's first wife but nothing has been proven. --SayCheese 16:50, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

Libertyville High School Football

I have taken into account the rules of Wikipedia. I think that this is a fine article and it should not be deleted.

Regards, Libertyville 22:36, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

I know the rules. I am just trying to save a notebale article. You don't know what you're talking about. This is a noteable article.

Excuse the spelling.

Regards,

Libertyville 22:46, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

I still don't know why it's not notable. I will put up a fight. I am logging off now. I will see what happens. Don't you dare do anything to the article. It is up to other people now. Leave it alone. - Libertyville 22:58, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

I see that the page was deleted. I did my best. Please don't bring the Cubs into this, though. I see that it says that you're a political analyst. I would like to know your side, Democrat or Republican. Although, sometimes analysts don't take a side.

Regards, Libertyville 02:08, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

I am Conservative, too. - Libertyville 12:36, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

About your signature

That orange background is distracting, so if will, please adjust it. FMF|contact 18:54, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

My bad, its really the background in general, which can be white or light gray (since its filling in the whole box) to match the talk pages. Be creative, just as long as when viewing a talk page, your not totally "drawn into" your signature. Other than that check out WP:SIGNATURE#Customizing your signature.

Wrigley storm

Awesome photo. However, it can't have been taken in 2005, because the center field bleacher reconstruction is visible, and that was done during the winter of 05-06. Baseball Bugs 01:23, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

StarCraft Character Pages

Although another user and I are working to replace many of the "misplaced" pages with better versions, for the moment they have been redirected so an Admin with a seeming vendetta against video game articles cannot AFD them. The pages will be restored at a later date, but to avoid harmful edits to them, have been removed for the time being. The Clawed One 04:12, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for understanding. Were it up to me, I would put the pages back right now, but I know this Admin and he would AFD every one of them if he has the time. User:S@bre and I have been working the past couple months to merge many of the pages into better ones, but our work has been interrupted by the Admin in question, which is why we've basically gone "underground" for the time. However, we are constantly editing and discussing the sandboxes for the pages, and on my end in particular, Kerrigan is ready to go (although more sources are being looked for jic), and Zeratul is going well too. I hope to have them, and Raynor as well, up some time this weekend as articles again. In the meantime, feel free to take a look at what I'm working on right now, although I ask you discuss any edits you feel should be made with me rather than add them yourself.

Billy Madison Picture

Yo, you seem to like having the image in the Billy Madison article where Madison talks to his father. But I think the one I posted is better. I mean come on, that's a classic, classic scene and it better represents Billy's immaturity early in the movie.tacoelf6

Prima guide

I know that you're just trying to help - that's why I didn't remove the references or anything, I just tried to fix stuff that I thought you had interpreted incorrectly.

As for the Prima guide - there are text dumps on Game FAQs that can provide any quote you need, and as for anything that isn't a quote - well, the Prima guide is just pretty much a crappy guide. For example, they named the "Shadow Beasts" (which are named in the game, and on the official websites) "Twilit Messengers" and the "Shadow Insects" (which are also named in the game and on the official websites) "Twilit Parasites", even though Diababa is the Twilit Parasite.

Basically, game guides aren't really considered out-of-universe sources anyway, so if you're going to use an in-universe source, at least use one that's reliable, like the sites or the game text. That's why I removed that reference.

If you need the official sites:

Don't worry about it, let them be reverted, S@bre and I will be replacing them in time anyway. The Clawed One 16:45, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

Resident evil 5

the game does take place in africa!!! -.-,you can even tell in the new E3 trailer.

3RR

Hello, you are getting very close to violating the the three revert rule, [4], [5], [6]. I do not wish to block you or anyone else for it, so please stop the reverts and take it to a talk page to work it out. Thanks. KOS | talk 15:47, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

Hidden Message in Resident Evil 5

I'm well aware of the discussion on the talk page, but even with that, random IP's and accounts have been editing, and even vandalizing the Resident Evil 5 article to state that it is a STARS badge, proving the protagonist to be Chris Redfield, which is not the case. Since not everyone reads the talk page, I put that notice there to help reduce the amount of reverts the page needs. Dengarde 03:02, 14 July 2007 (UTC)

Your sig style

I love you sig. Would you help me with mine? I'd like it to reflect the fact that my name user name is supposed to be in honor of Juan Manuel Fangio. Jmfangio 08:03, 14 July 2007 (UTC)

You rock!!! That was so kind of you... you need a barnstar for this! I'm gonna play around with it...Jmfangio ► Talk 19:45, 14 July 2007 (UTC)

Well, since you asked - are you any good with tables :-) ? If you want to move this to my talk page that's a-okay with me. Jmfangio ► Talk 02:23, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

• No worries, I usually just try and talk on the relevant page. Thansk for the tips. I've been playing around with the tutorials a bit and i've gotten the "Articles" table on my talk page the way i want it. Now i'm just trying to figure out how to put other tables next to it horizontally that are all the same as that (with different content of course). I'm having a hard time doing that with my projects box. Thanks for the tips! Jmfangio ► Talk 03:15, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

I've taken the liberty to rip off your sig style too, that okay? :P Parjay ► Talk 16:13, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

Thanks very much, I'll change the colours as much as possible :D Parjay ► Talk 16:34, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

Re5 - thanks for getting back

Hey Jester, thanks for getting back to me about your edit and explaining, thats perfectly cool, and I'll take IMDB into account in the future (didn't know it could be edited by anyone) Theres probably more stuff to add there from the new trailer (media?) but I think I'll let you or whoever else fix it up as you see fit

I'll look forward to hearing about whatever you manage to find out! :)

I appreciate your feedback.... can you give me an idea of what you mean?

#1 Pick (Dunston)

With all due respect, whats wrong with documenting the teams ONLY #1 pick? They have similar features on other team sites here on Wiki.... I agree maybe my last one was too wordy but this was a simple point.... I dont want to press the issue, but let me know why you disagree.... by the way, are you always logged in? lol.
