Jane Fonda

The reason I removed the image is that, while Wikipedia does encourage use of images, it doesn't tend to support the use of screenshots/film images of the actor on the biography page. They are generally used on the pages for the film itself. The only time that a screenshot/film image would be appropriate would be if it is used to illustrate some particular point that the image uniquely reflects or better clarifies. Offhand, the example that comes to mind might be in an article about Robert De Niro, if the section discussed his willingness to gain weight for his role in Raging Bull, but only if it covered something pertinent in the image. You don't often see a film image in the articles that carry a featured or good article status, and Fonda's is a good article. Hopefully, that answers your question. Wildhartlivie (talk) 08:48, 22 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Occasionally, some of them will, but there should be some critical commentary going along with it. In Bette Davis, Vivien Leigh, Judy Garland and Sharon Tate, each are featured articles that have extensive film details, which discusses specifics of the films in the text. I'm not completely convinced that Diane Keaton's does have that depth of commentary. For Jane Fonda's, there is only one sentence covering Barbarella. But thanks for responding. Wildhartlivie (talk) 10:16, 22 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It would be quite appropriate for Barbarella. Wildhartlivie (talk) 10:31, 22 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I don't mean to intrude- but I added several of the images you've mentioned, and most of them are free of copyright which completely changes their suitability. All of the images in Judy Garland are free images from theatrical trailers that are not subject to copyright. Most of the images in Bette Davis and Vivien Leigh are the same - not subject to copyright and carefully chosen for that reason. At least a couple of the images at Sharon Tate are free and the ones that are not free are accompanied by discussion of the specific role/film. I can't comment on Diane Keaton as I have not added those images. As Jane Fonda is a more recent performer it would be difficult to find film images that have fallen into public domain whereas the films of Davis, Leigh and Garland predate the copyrighting of film trailers which was only widely introduced in 1963. If you click on any of the images in any of these articles you'll see which ones are free and which ones are not. Hope this helps. Rossrs (talk) 14:57, 22 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Aquila. Thanks for the message. Generally all trailers prior to 1963 were released without a copyright notice. Before 1977 some trailers were released without a copyright notice. If the Barbarella trailer was released without a copyright notice it would be OK to use. All trailers released after 1977 are assumed to be subject to copyright. I'm sorry, when I commented previously I was assuming that the image was from the film, rather than the trailer, which was wrong of me to assume. Rossrs (talk) 15:14, 22 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Re:List of female Nobel laureates

Those images were all missing some vital information. For example, File:ARB-Alva-Myrdal.jpg and File:Irène Joliot-Curie.jpg have no author, while others have improper licensing. -- Scorpion ⁰⁴²² 21:38, 16 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, because the page is a FL, every image needs to be properly licensed. See this for more information. As for why individual images weren't added, ask User:Sephiroth BCR, he's the one who started the list. -- Scorpion ⁰⁴²² 21:57, 16 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Breakout role/breakout character

Hello, Aquila89. I do not get the following statement by you on the Megan Fox article: "breakout role is not related to breakout character."

I ask, "How so?" Breakout character and breakout role are synonymous with each other. They are used interchangeably all the time, and mean the same thing in every context. This is why I reverted you on this matter. I mean, how is the word "role" different than "character" in this case? Flyer22 (talk) 01:18, 8 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for helping me completing the missing information in the article List of Mad's movie spoofs.

Mila and Ashton

"They've been seen together, but neither made an official statement about it, so I don't think we should include this. Wikipedia is not a gossip magazine. Also, it's only have been a few months, it's not notable enough yet to be included in her biography."

I'm (and others) are NOT turning Wiki into a gossip magazine, contrary to your silly assertion by mere mentioning in a short sentence a serious relationship that has been reported by many, many reputable media sources (ex, The Huffington Post), whether the two people acknowledge it publicly or not! So, if they *never* say anything 'officially' (from their publicists?), Wiki can't say a damn word about it??? Since when is Wiki dependent on what someone else says (or doesn't say) about anything? This makes absolutely no sense! After what arbitrary length of time does it take for Wiki to mention an ongoing relationship since it has now been 5 months? Is it: 6 months? 9 months? 1 year? 1 1/2 years? 2 years? WHEN? This also makes no sense, and is entirely and completely arbitrary for any admin. to say, which I presume you are an admin. Isn't there *some* guideline by now on time length in Wiki's vast arsenal of rules and regulations regarding serious relationships if they aren't mentioned by the couple themselves? [Is their privacy (not accurate in Mila-Ashton's case now) on 'going public' more important than Wiki reporting the fact?] If not, maybe there should be one? Just asking on that last idea. Please reply to these important concerns, because I'm sure with other couple-relationships after a decent period of time (3-4 months perhaps), with reports also of these two now living together, this problem in reporting it on Wiki is going to occur over and over again. And that crazy idea you mentioned with, "The lead section usually doesn't need citations" leaves Wiki wide open for anyone to say anything with no documentation needed merely by placing it in the first paragraph! How inconsistent is that with the general rule Wiki pounds into every editor's head that each fact or idea posted needs a reference? In Mila's case, there are already ref.'s on her birth name and birthdate in the first line, so your point on no ref.'s needed (in the opening para.) is already broken and totally inoperable, not to mention inconsistent and arbitrary. Wiki is a mess of inconsistencies and arbitrary rulings (i.e., deletions of properly sourced facts) by whomever wrote these rules/ideas! Thanks. --Katydidit (talk) 21:40, 26 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding your edit saying "as far as we know, they're not partners, just dating", my question is: how would you describe the difference between dating someone and being their partner? Also, Huffington Post is most definitely NOT at all a reliable source, @Katydidit:- they are known to frequently fabricate information, particularly regarding politics (they have a liberal bias). XXSNUGGUMSXX (talk) 16:43, 7 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I'd say living together makes the difference. We have no reliable sources about whether they live together or not. Aquila89 (talk) 17:46, 7 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

In that case, you should mention that on their talk pages if you haven't already. XXSNUGGUMSXX (talk) 17:51, 7 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Blocking

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Aquila89 (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

I don't understand why was I blocked Aquila89 (talk) 14:01, 25 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

You're not blocked, however you have recently tried to edit from an IP address that's blocked as a web host provider. PhilKnight (talk) 15:22, 25 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

To clarify - you should follow the instructions in the box below.

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.

You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.

We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.

If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:

If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page:

{{unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~}}

. You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

WP:CITEVAR

Hello. As I've seen you changing reference formats on several occasions, I presume you are unaware of WP:CITEVAR, which basically says you should not change the established format of references in an article. Cheers, Number 5 7 19:58, 8 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

As it says, "it is normal practice to defer to the style used by the first major contributor". This is the same for things like WP:ENGVAR or WP:DATEVAR, where if there are inconsistencies, you go back to first decent length version of the article (i.e. anything more than a couple of sentences) and look at the reference/English type/date format. Number 5 7 20:26, 8 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Zemmour's declaration of candidacy

Thanks for your contribution to Eric Zemmour, in particular, your improvements to the Le Figaro citation. Unfortunately, I had to remove the YouTube video, though, because it is a WP:PRIMARY source, and Wikipedia prefers WP:SECONDARY sources when available. In this case, secondary news sources about Zemmour's declaration of candidacy are plentiful. Since there was already a highly reliable source in the article (the Figaro citation) nothing else is needed there. If you can find a copy of the video captioned in English, you could try adding it to the "External links" section; but as primary material entirely in a foreign language, it's unsuitable for use as a citation in the article. Thanks again for your contribution, and happy editing! Mathglot (talk) 19:40, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

September 2022

Hi Aquila89! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at Trumpism that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you. – S.

Not-broken links

I see that in this edit, you replaced a wikilink to a redirect page with a piped link directly to the page that was redirected to. I understand that instinct, but Wikipedia standard is that we actually prefer that simple link to a redirect page. You can see this preference discussed at WP:NOTBROKEN. As such, I request that you undo that edit. -- Nat Gertler (talk) 00:27, 23 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Locking an article

Hey, can you lock an Wikipedia article about a Pakistani senator who justifying holocaust so that some random unregistered Pakistani bot can't edit it, they are trying really hard to protect their own senator from bad publication even though that senator is justifying holocaust Spartan Alpha (talk) 13:25, 5 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I can't lock articles, I'm not an administrator. Aquila89 (talk) 13:31, 5 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Myrealnamm. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Felix Zwayer seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Hello,

The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Wikipedia, and what affects administrator retention.

We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this anonymous survey.

You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.

The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement .
