Your edits at Logorama

Hi, I reverted your recent edit at Logorama. I'm not a fan of that list of brands either, but calling for reliable sources is not an appropriate reason to remove it. Please re-read WP:V. Sources are only required for contentious material, and for quotes. Uncontroversial material apparent to any viewer of the film in question does not need to be sourced. If you're disputing it because you think it's WRONG, that's another matter, but a lack of sources isn't a policy-supported reason to delete. Perhaps try attacking it on WP:TRIVIA grounds, I think there's still some leverage to be had there. - DustFormsWords (talk) 00:16, 11 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, the tag you've just added seems like a reasonable compromise as we can probably all agree that the article in general could be better sourced. - DustFormsWords (talk) 00:29, 11 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You're such a nice guy. Things like this endear you to people when you run for administrator! BLGM5 (talk) 00:30, 11 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Ben Hansbrough

Your AfD nomination of Ben Hansbrough was incomplete. If you wish to finish the nomination, please create the discussion page (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ben Hansbrough) and list your reasons for deletion there. Thank you. — Rankiri (talk) 15:49, 19 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much for your contribution to my Rfa. I have made a comment about it at User talk:JamesBWatson#Your Request for Adminship which you are, of course, very welcome to read if you wish to. JamesBWatson (talk) 14:15, 21 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan

How is it randomly tagging? Erpert (let's talk about it) 05:28, 28 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Tags like the ones you added need defending on the Talk Page. Something like {{plot}} or {{unreferenced}} are self-explanatory. Others need specific arguments for use. BLGM5 (talk) 12:43, 28 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Or it can be explained in the edit summary, which is what I did. Erpert (let's talk about it) 20:41, 28 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"Perhaps"? doesn't count. Good try though! BLGM5 (talk) 11:21, 29 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Re: TtH

Hi BLGM5, you'll have to start a new AfD. The article as it is now is different to the version that was deleted in October 2006. I found the article while leafing through the deleted contributions of Conversion script, and just decided to undelete the old versions per the advice at this section of DRV. Graham87 02:48, 14 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'll start a new AfD, thanks for the input. BLGM5 (talk) 15:10, 14 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Machete (film)

Hello. Letting you know, as I'm sure you know, you currently appear to be engaged in an edit war on the Machete (film) page. I suggest you stop, seek discussion on the talk page, otherwise you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Akerans (talk) 07:04, 18 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Everclear

I have reverted your recent edit of Everclear (alcohol).

In future, please do not undertake mass reversions of this kind without discussing them first on the talk page. Doing so contravenes good editing practice and, in this case, WP:Popular culture as well. Wahrmund (talk) 19:04, 19 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Concerning your second reversion of this content. The citations are inherent in the entries themselves, which contain links that are primary sources for them. Furthermore, you have deleted a complete bibliographic citation of the book Lake Wobegon Days. Wahrmund (talk) 19:38, 19 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

White Russian

Stop leaving warnings for me on my talk page and reverting my edits. Only unsourced contentious material or quotes should be removed from articles. This is neither plus the version you're reverting to is unsourced as well. 208.54.35.33 (talk) 20:21, 21 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Amityville edits

The edit you made to The 2005 Amityville Horror page was in good faith but was clarified information. The difference between the film,book, and true story are verified and well know. They show the difference between each interpretaion. Ex.The house does not look like the real one at all. Obviously it doesnt so that is already clarified. Although, they do need more refs They are clarified and are information to show the differences. --Darkness2light (talk) 13:22, 24 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Whether or not it is "well known" is irrelevant. If it isn't cited, then it's original research, and it stays out. BLGM5 (talk) 13:50, 24 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Why are you so against having the differences on the page? you know thats against policy right?--Darkness2light (talk) 15:52, 28 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I want to apologize if I got a little fierce. Many have gotten confused over what the 2005 film says, and the other incarnations have. and wikipedia is where most people would go before they would go to a amityville website or such. I wanted the part to stay there so there would be less confusion. When I added that section a year and a half ago it was "differences between film and true story", because their was alot of confusion over "true story" and the alleged true story (told by the book). As for scources, the difficulty in those is they lie in the film and books themselves. ex.Jodie defeo appeared as a pig in the original. It's difficult to to do, unless we find a interview with George Lutz or critic saying "How did jodie go from a pig, in the original, to a fictional murdered girl of a real murdered family?" or such. Apologies again. I haven't edited on wikipedia for a while. Like I said, I just dont want any confusion over the subject. I started on wikipedia too, and half of the stuff was wrong that I read so I had to research elsewhere, im just trying to prevent that from happening to anyone else. So once again, im sorry if I got a little fierce. I'm actually the complete opposite of that, i'm just touchy when it comes to making sure the differences in Amityville are noted.--Darkness2light (talk) 02:53, 29 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

BLGM5: Who are you?

In the spirit of Wikipedia as I understand it, I tried to add a reference to Kraken, popular literature which you removed. Can you please explain what was so controversial and un-referenced? Teastain (talk) 03:39, 3 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You are adding your own interpretation of a Kraken, as stated in Moby Dick. Unless that interpretation comes from a reliable, third-party source, it is considered original research, and not allowed. BLGM5 (talk) 13:14, 3 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Reason or Racism

BLGM5, I don't know why don't you want realistic knowledge to be present on Wikipedia. The page on the movie "Just Go With It"... You edited the information I entered about the film being a spoof of a Bollywood film. Now I don't understand that why do you have to be partial with optimistic knowledge. Resulting into a "EDITING WAR" will make way for immaturity. Please don't make me consult Administrators on this issue and please don't try being racial or partial. This is the limit of pessimism. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 115.118.204.105 (talk) 22:59, 3 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Or, just add a citation and stop being a dipshit. BLGM5 (talk) 13:14, 4 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
