18th century actress
This needs to be skillfully written into George Anne Bellamy. The article is difficult to follow so you might be able to make the best of it and improve it, I thought it might interest you.♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld 12:07, 22 February 2013 (UTC)
- It certainly is my bag. I will try and do something with it over the next week or so. Thanks for telling me. Hope your well! -- CassiantoTalk 23:34, 22 February 2013 (UTC)
Congratulations on the star. I think we might be able to get several more list articles out of Leno: "Clog dances of Dan Leno", "Favourite beverages of Dan Leno", and "vegetables grown by Dan Leno", for a start. Just kidding! -- Ssilvers (talk) 16:50, 25 February 2013 (UTC)

March
Hello Cassianto,
I am searching for the name of a Sousaesque march composition, probably you may now it. The main melody is like this: "BAA--ba-ba-BAA--ba-ba-BAba, balalalam-bam-bam-baa, BAA--ba-ba-BAA--ba-ba-BAba, balalalam-bam-bamBAM-bam-BAM" :) Regards.--Tomcat (7) 18:26, 5 March 2013 (UTC)

Main Page appearance
Hello! This is a note to let the main editors of the article Peter Sellers on stage, radio, screen and record know that it will be appearing as the main page featured list on April 8, 2013. You can view the TFL blurb at Wikipedia:Today's featured list/April 8, 2013. If you think it is necessary to change the main date, you can request it with the featured list directors The Rambling Man (talk · contribs), Dabomb87 (talk · contribs) or Giants2008 (talk · contribs), or at Wikipedia talk:Today's featured list. If the previous blurb needs tweaking, you might change it—following the instructions of the suggested formatting. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page so Wikipedia doesn't look bad. Thanks! Tbhotch.™ Grammatically incorrect? Correct it! See terms and conditions. 02:10, 27 March 2013 (UTC)
Peter Sellers's career on radio, film, television and record lasted from 1948 until his death in 1980. Sellers made his debut on the radio broadcast ShowTime in 1948, followed by appearances on a number of radio programmes, notably the BBC Radio comedy series The Goon Show. He started his film career in the 1950s, and appeared in over fifty films, including Dr. Strangelove, Lolita and the Pink Panther series; at the peak of his career he was one of the most popular stars at the British box office. Sellers's versatility enabled him to portray a wide range of comic characters using different accents and guises, and he would often assume multiple roles within the same film. While best known for his film and radio work, Sellers also made a number of television appearances, in character roles and for interviews and advertisements. His stage appearances were few, largely because he had been unhappy with the touring he had done as a child with his family. During his career he also released a number of albums containing sketches and comic songs; the songs were undertaken in a variety of comic characters. |link=Peter Sellers on stage, radio, screen and record

Ever considered WP:TFL?
Hello Cassianto, your recently promoted featured list would make a very suitable candidate for main page inclusion if you would be interested in nominating it. We have a process at Today's featured list which enables us to create blurbs and then gather community support for lists to be presented on the main page every Monday. The process allows up to ten nominations at the submissions page, so if it's full you may need to wait, but it would be great if you could consider nominating your list, or helping out with those other lists that have already been nominated. Thanks for your ongoing interest in the featured list process. The Rambling Man (talk) 19:00, 29 March 2013 (UTC)
- Hear hear! Interesting and unusual topic for the main page and it would be great to see it on there. - SchroCat (talk) 19:06, 29 March 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks gents. Yes, I keep meaning to give Dan's work its 15 minutes of 21st century fame, but seldom ever find the time to do so. I am very interested in nominating them and will endeavour to do so over the next week or two. I am unfortunate enough to always pick articles that never seem fall on forthcoming relevant dates, so I generally always let the delegates pick my FA's randomly such as they did with Stan and Dan. I will read up on the ifs and buts and pull me finger out in terms of getting them nominated at TFL. Any ideas which should be first? -- CassiantoTalk 19:40, 29 March 2013 (UTC)

I shall most certainly join in the PR. I shall set time aside tomorrow. I look forward to it. Tim riley (talk) 16:57, 6 April 2013 (UTC)

Main Page appearance: John Le Mesurier
This is a note to let the main editors of John Le Mesurier know that the article will be appearing as today's featured article on April 12, 2013. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page. If you prefer that the article appear as TFA on a different date, or not at all, please ask featured article director Raul654 (talk · contribs) or one of his delegates (Dabomb87 (talk · contribs), Gimmetoo (talk · contribs), and Bencherlite (talk · contribs)), or start a discussion at Wikipedia talk:Today's featured article/requests. You can view the TFA blurb at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/April 12, 2013. If it needs tweaking, or if it needs rewording to match improvements to the article between now and its main page appearance, please edit it, following the instructions at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/requests/instructions. The blurb as it stands now is below:
John Le Mesurier (1912–83) was an English actor perhaps best remembered for his comedic role as Sergeant Arthur Wilson in the BBC situation comedy Dad's Army between 1968 and 1977. He debuted on stage in 1934, and became one of television's pioneering actors when he appeared in The Marvellous History of St Bernard in 1938. From there, Le Mesurier had a prolific film career and appeared in over 120 films across a range of genres, normally in smaller supporting parts in comedies; his roles often portrayed figures of authority such as army officers, policemen and judges. He took a relaxed approach to acting and described himself as a "jobbing actor", a term he used for the title of his autobiography. On one of the few occasions he played the lead role in his career, he received a British Academy of Film and Television Arts "Best Television Actor" award for his performance in the Dennis Potter television play Traitor. He later said that his parts he played were those of "a decent chap all at sea in a chaotic world not of his own making". After his death, critics reflected that for an actor who normally took minor roles, the viewing public were "enormously fond of him". (Full article...)

If you wouldn't mind a few comments from me, then please let me know when you nom this fine article for FAC, as I would be glad to take a look. GabeMc (talk|contribs) 21:43, 12 April 2013 (UTC)
- Your comments would be greatly received. It won't be yet, as I have a GAN planned first, but it would be realistic of me to say that it will be before the month is out. -- CassiantoTalk 21:54, 12 April 2013 (UTC)
- It's terrific, well done. Rothorpe (talk) 23:40, 12 April 2013 (UTC)

Super stylish signature and User Page Title
Hi Cassianto. I like the artistic look of your signature! I was wondering how I could get mine to look like that? Also how did you get your user page title to look that way also, with the shadow? I'd really appreciate your help on this as I think it looks really awesome! TheDarkUnicorn (talk) 22:04, 17 April 2013 (UTC)
- Thank you. For a tutorial, you can visit WP:UPDC. You can design your signature by using HTML (if your familiar with the format), alternatively you can copy the raw code for a signature in the edit screen, and adapt it to your own liking using this or something similar. You can build your signature in "Preferences" and tick the "wikimarkup" box. Don't save it straight away, instead click save preview first until your happy with it. -- CassiantoTalk 07:43, 18 April 2013 (UTC)
- I hope you don't mind, but I have got you started on your homepage design by changing the style of your name. It is normally a WP no-no by editing other editors homepage's, but I felt in the circumstances, and because of your message above, this would be ok on this occasion. Any problems, let me know. -- CassiantoTalk 12:05, 18 April 2013 (UTC)
- Hi Cassianto. Just back from work! Thanks for the advice and welcome. The User title looks great thanks. I just put spaces in between the words just now but then it reverted back to its old form, so then I undid it. I also didn't know if spaces could be put in my username, but then I saw others afterwards who had. I presume its too late, or is there any point in me setting up a new account?
- Yes its fine you editing my page as it sort of gives me a head start! I have had some html experience before but I have to do some reading up in wiki-code. I will visit the links you gave me thanks. TheDarkUnicorn (talk) 17:40, 18 April 2013 (UTC)
- You can change your name no problem at all, which you can read up on at WP:CHUG. Alternativley, you can request a name change at WP:CHUS. It is best not to blind yourself with policy this early on in your WP career, so I have asked an admin for assistance, as I fear I would get into trouble if I moved your page for you. -- CassiantoTalk 18:48, 18 April 2013 (UTC)
- To change your signature go to "Preferences" at the top right of your screen, go down to signature and delete your name from within the box. I designed you a signature. In its place, paste ''[[User talk:TheDarkUnicorn|<span style="text-shadow:gray 3px 3px 2px;"><font face="AR Cena" color="black"><b>☠ The Dark Unicorn ☠</b></font></span>]]'' and Tick the wiki markup box. Now press save and it will use this signature fom then on. -- CassiantoTalk 19:04, 18 April 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks! I saw it in the AR Cena font and thought it look a bit hard to make out, and the skull and crossbones looked good though! I might stick with this Dark Unicorn for a while as I think it looks great! I think I'll be plastering this all over the place now ha ha! I actually wanted just the name "Dark Unicorn" (without "The") as my username but "DarkUnicorn" was taken, and I didn't want to add silly numbers after the name hence the "the". But if I can change it again all the better. Yes it looks like I've a hell of an amount of policies to read up on! Thanks for all your help! Dark Unicorn 19:48, 18 April 2013 (UTC)
- Anytime! By the way, do NOT set up another account while you have this one as this is not allowed. Instead, get your one moved to a different name. Happy editing! -- CassiantoTalk 20:07, 18 April 2013 (UTC)
