I believe that your decision to make a change on my user page without my consenst entitles me to a response: the vandalism box is not an invitation for you to exercise your juvenile, self-centered arrogance by changing it. Now that we've cleared the air, if you decide to vandalize my user page again I will treat it like any other vandalism and make a vandalism report. Ward3001 (talk) 15:51, 7 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Relax. I didn't put anything on your user page that wasn't true: my vandalism brought the count up to 39, if 38 was the correct count before. That amused me, and since it didn't change anything else on your page--in fact, since it was an update that you might have made yourself, I wasn't too bothered over obtaining consent. I find your stuffy, moralistic attitude rather less justified than my "juvenile, self-centered arrogance", but naturally, this is a matter of opinion. Don't worry, I shan't push your buttons by vandalizing your user page any more. I wouldn't have in any case: it would be like repeating a joke because someone doesn't find it funny the first time.

Regards,

JudahH

PS-Do try to mellow out a little. I believe it will make you a happier man.JudahH (talk) 16:00, 7 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

False accusation of rape

I very much agree with your 20:29, 22 July 2013 edit of the above article. Let's see if it holds. It's hard work dealing with folks who are mainly interested in pushing their political agendas. Badmintonhist (talk) 21:03, 22 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. Yes, it can be challenging to deal with someone aggressively pushing his agenda, but we all have some sort of agenda, don't we? The challenge is to arrive at something mutually satisfactory. I hope Roscolese either accepts the edit or refines it, rather than trumping up a reason to revert again. JudahH (talk) 21:14, 22 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The first sentence of the "false accusations" section is now much better than what Roscelese originally had there. However, I'm wondering about the "many reasons other than falsity" part of the next sentence. Since you seem to have access to the source, does it support "many reasons" or is this an embellishment? Badmintonhist (talk) 19:17, 23 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, I'm glad he left that in there. The section doesn't bother me so much with that more neutral cast.

I don't have any special access to the source. Source 1 is available (partially) from the Google Books page linked in the article. The relevant part here runs: Some jurisdictions may routinely relegate a large percentage of rape complaints to [the category of 'unfounded'] simply as a means of closing an investigation once it becomes difficult. Because of this method of "closing" an investigation, rates of false allegations may have been inflated and misrepresented...

So no, no mention of "many" reasons there; just one broad reason. I can't access source 2. JudahH (talk) 21:37, 23 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Proper name of article

Please see my response to your contribution on the (Pronounced 'Lĕh-'nérd 'Skin-'nérd) album Talk page. Indeed, the article is a self-titled debut, just as the Allman Brothers Band was that band's, and the Outlaws its. Someone in the album creation process, whether the band, its management, or suits at the label, added the parenthetical pronunciation guide to help the unfamiliar properly say it. Thus it should be entitled Lynyrd Skynyrd (pronounced 'Lĕh-'nérd 'Skin-'nérd). Registered users can either create a redirect to a new page (created in the process) to the proper name Lynyrd Skynyrd (pronounced 'Lĕh-'nérd 'Skin-'nérd), or request a rename using the Wikipedia administrative process. Yours, 24.61.220.85 (talk) 23:14, 14 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

List of Generation Kill characters

Hi there, I noticed you reverted my redirect of that article. The article was redirected for many reasons, primarily because it's been unsourced for over five years and is essentially just a list of characters and actors. There's no reason why any extra information cannot just be added to Generation Kill (miniseries), which is a fairly small article. We're talking about a miniseries of seven episodes, the idea that we need a separate article for its characters is a bit absurd. I redirected that article in March, so there seemed to be a consensus for that given it wasn't until now, five months later, someone has an issue with it. I was even thanked by RA0808 when I redirected the article. The fact is, we're talking about an article that has been tagged as unreferenced for five years, shows no indication of notability, and has had barely any substantial edits/improvements within the last several years. Any notable information about the miniseries of Generation Kill can be included in its main article. Any spin-off articles are completely superfluous. Drovethrughosts (talk) 17:50, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Then that information ought to be included in the main article. My issue with the removal was simple: I went looking for the information and it was no longer to be found. In general, I can't see the harm in an article about anything, however small, if the article's good. I suppose that makes me an inclusionist. However, we don't have to argue about this, as I don't see a problem with including the tables of that list inline with the main article, which it sounds like you'd be OK with. JudahH (talk) 21:16, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry, but I disagree with just straight-up dumping the information into the main article, by copying and pasting. All the tables and minutia about vehicles, "vehicle positions", etc. is excessive information. The current format complies with WP:TVCAST, with a cast being presented in a bulleted list format, not complicated tables with excess information. We also have to stick to notability here, we can't be listing every single actor, we primarily limit to the starring cast. For example, in the version with all the tables, to find someone like Alexander Skarsgård (one of its lead actors), he's buried in a subsection of a subsection of a subsection... seriously? The current format is clean, simple, and sticks to notability and guidelines. If you feel any notable character is missing, then they can simply be added to the list in the same fashion. If you have any other feelings, you can use the talk page of the article, though I doubt they'll be much activity because we're talking about an almost 10-year-old TV miniseries. Thank you.
