Template:Allmusic
hello,
i red the guideline, but i'm not sure if templates can be nominated for deletion. however, this template is useless, because allmusic was updated and the thing with id doesn't go. maybe we should change the template (i would do that, if it wasn't protected). what do you think about that? make a response please. -- ♫Greatorangepumpkin♫ T 10:27, 1 November 2010 (UTC)
- Well, templates can be nominated at WP:TFD but this is definitely not such a case. Any modification should be proposed on its talk page where there is already a pertinent discussion. After consensus has been established for the change, or if the change is uncontroversial, any administrator may make the necessary edits to the protected page. To draw administrators' attention to a request for an edit to a protected page, place the
{{editprotected}}
template on the talk page. (Moved here from WT:AFD) --Tikiwont (talk) 13:19, 1 November 2010 (UTC)

Portal picture
I think the answer is to add the image at Template:Portal/Images/Santana simply as the name of the file you want, but without the "file" prefix – e.g. Template:Portal/Images/Alaska just has the text Flag of Alaska.svg, so that {{portal|Alaska}} looks like this:
Then you can type {{portal|Santana}} to get the box with image; see also the instructions at Template:Portal. Hope this helps. BencherliteTalk 15:06, 2 November 2010 (UTC)

Santana discography
Hi there. I noticed you reverted my edit in which I implemented {{cite gold platin}}. Is there something wrong with the template? It is a new template which solves the recent change of the German database, but more importantly, it provides a standard and easy method for making better citations to that database. Note that I used it with "artist=Santana", which provides an accurate link to Santana's rewards. The template is now used in over 800 articles, and so far it works well. Your feedback is welcome. --Muhandes (talk) 12:08, 9 November 2010 (UTC)

Grateful Dead discography
Hello GreatOrangePumpkin. Thanks for your recent contributions to the Grateful Dead discography. However, one of your changes should be put back the way it was, in my opinion. I've explained this at Talk:Grateful Dead discography#Studio and current live albums. Feel free to join the discussion there. — Mudwater (Talk) 12:59, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
- Hello again. I've also started a second discussion about your recent changes. Feel free to join in, at Talk:Grateful Dead discography#Restoration of deleted material. — Mudwater (Talk) 13:15, 12 November 2010 (UTC)

Featured Pictures
Thanks for supporting some of my photos!
I'm really hoping to get the iguana featured, but I don't think it will make it. :-(
Thanks though!

Hi GreatOrangePumpkin - I've moved your deletion nomination of this category to Wikipedia:Categories for discussion, which is the correct place to list permanent categories. Only cvategories connected with stub-sorting should be listed at Wikipedia:Stub types for deletion. Grutness...wha? 22:17, 27 November 2010 (UTC)
