Hello! You did a nice job on the US Nielsen ratings chart on Life Unexpected. I just wanted to show you my edit here, where I changed the table to cite the same reference several times by giving it a name. This removed about 50 references from the bottom of the page. There is so much to learn here at Wikipedia, I hope this will help you in the future. If you have any questions, feel free to ask! --Logical Fuzz (talk) 19:55, 4 April 2010 (UTC)
90210 season 2
[edit]Hello, I've recently reverted your ratings additions to 90210, the second season. This is because for consistency in the article, ratings should all be the same, the ratings listed are all overnight ratings, not final ratings. Also the sources you provided weren't reliable as they looked like blogs. If you have any issues with using overnight ratings instead of any others feel free to bring it up for discussion on the 90210 talkpage, but remember it's going to be very hard to find them now. Also any questions please post back on my talk page :). Jayy008 (talk) 23:10, 14 April 2010 (UTC)

[edit]You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Glee (season 1). Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period. Additionally, users who perform several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. Please stop the disruption, otherwise you may be blocked from editing. Logical Fuzz (talk) 14:48, 20 April 2010 (UTC)
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. When you make a change to an article, please provide an edit summary for your edits. Doing so helps everyone to understand the intention of your edit. It is also helpful to users reading the edit history of the page. Thank you. Logical Fuzz (talk) 11:34, 22 April 2010 (UTC)
pifeedback.com
[edit]Anabel, I'm sorry, but I must ask that you stop using the pifeedback.com forums as sources. Forums are not to be used as sources as they are written by random people. See Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources. If the forum post mentions a source, use that source instead. For that reason, you need to go back to the edits you've previously made and fix this issue. If you have any questions, please leave a note on my talk page. Thanks. — Huntster (t @ c) 00:19, 20 May 2010 (UTC)
- I know nothing about TVbytheNumbers, but most people seem to consider it reliable. However, Wikipedia guidelines specifically state that forums are not to be used. Regardless if the same source is used for both places, the forum does not state its source, so ultimately still cannot be used. Do not reinsert information that relies entirely on forums. If it can't be found on TVbytheNumbers or another site taken as reliable, don't post it here. — Huntster (t @ c) 10:04, 21 May 2010 (UTC)
- Do you know where else I can get information for television ratings where they put the final numbers then? (t 03:07, 21 May 2010 (PST)
- No, ratings are not my thing. I'm sure there's other sources out there, but you should try to find other editors who regularly insert ratings data to see if they have any ideas on where to turn. — Huntster (t @ c) 10:10, 21 May 2010 (UTC)
- Alright, thank you. (t 03:14, 21 May 2010 (PST)
- Hi, I've been looking around and cannot find any legitimate sources. But when I went to look back at TVbythenumbers, they used the ones that Travia Yanan posted, which is the source at Pifeedback. [1] If you see, Robert said he got them via Travis, and he has been very reliable since they're the ones that are posted on TVbythenumbers, excepted TV is not updated with the finals all the time.
- Alright, thank you. (t 03:14, 21 May 2010 (PST)
Your addition of ratings numbers from Deadline.com
[edit]Hello. Regarding your edits here to Life Unexpected and elsewhere, in which you are adding ratings data from deadline.com: Please note that you are comparing apples with oranges. You have removed the average data of 1.99 million viewers (which is next-day finals data) and replaced it with 2.344 million, which is Live+7 data. These are completely different sets of numbers, which refer to different ways of accounting viewership. For consistency, please do not continue to add this data, because it differs/conflicts with the data on the episode list tables. It adds no value, it only confuses. Thanks. --Logical Fuzz (talk) 15:13, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
Your edit on The Vampire Diaries is the same. I made the box the same as other TV shows, which I'm doing again. Some of the info there now doesn't make sense in that box and doesn't belong there. Jayy008 (talk) 18:14, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
Smallville
[edit]It's completely unnecessary. What does the reader need to know immediately that it requires us to repeat already summarized information? The broadcast years are in the section headers, which means they are visible in the table of contents. Every year contains between 20 and 23 episodes. The Nielsen ratings are already listed on the page and don't need to be listed twice. What you are adding is an unnecessary table. There is no mandate to have or not have the table, and it's the consensus of the people working on the Smallville related pages that the List of Episode page doesn't need that redundant table.

about the seasons of ALIAS
[edit]Any chance you would be willing to use the cite template for the references. I am very much following behind you converting all of the plain urls into cite pressrelease on the seasons of ALIAS. Also not all of the seasons had references before so try to remember to check if there even is a references section before moving on. Cheers. delirious & lost ☯ ~hugs~ 06:51, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
Adding ratings to episode lists
[edit]If you are going to bother adding ratings info to episode lists could you PLEASE use the {{Cite web}} template or if that is too complicated add the url and page title into these "[ ]" brackets. If you are not going to use these methods do not bother adding references at all, Thank you. QuasyBoy 20:32, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
