Librarynerds, I hate to bust your bubble, but if you do the math there is only 125 episodes of Reba. Kindly accept this fact.

A belated welcome!

[edit]
Sorry for the belated welcome, but the cookies are still warm!

Transgender

[edit]

First, did you read WP:BRD? Instead of changing it back again, you're supposed to discuss first. Second, what does "I can't control what the linked page says" supposed to mean? You can't change what's on that page, but you can "control" what's on the 19 Kids page? By the way, I read what it says about it on that "GLAAD" site, and personally, I think it's ridiculous. But, that's my opinion. --Musdan77 (talk) 03:33, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • I did, but transgendered isn't up for debate. It's an offensive term for transgender people, so it shouldn't be used on a page that's not meant to offend people. You said that the linked page uses that word multiple times. I provided a source that lists it as an offensive term. I can't change whatever linked page you meant, but I do, as a person with internet access, have the ability to edit Wikipedia pages, which is what I did, to remove an offensive term, the same as I would edit a page that used f*ggot or the t-slur or the N word. You can think it's ridiculous all you want, but that doesn't mean it's not offensive. And your personal views don't matter to Wikipedia. GLAAD is a widely known and recognized source for LGBT+ issues. Librarynerds (talk) 03:40, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The "linked page" is the one in question: Transgender! Everything having to do with content is up for debate. We don't give website addresses in an edit summary. You can on a talk page. And we don't remove/change a word just because someone may be offended by it. --Musdan77 (talk) 14:59, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    • Really? You think if someone used the N word in an article to describe a black person, that wouldn't get changed immediately (not including the article on the word, address its status as a racial slur)? The page transgender only uses transgendered in a quote, notes, and references. Librarynerds (talk) 15:19, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
"The page transgender only uses transgendered in a quote, notes, and references." I know. But, if it's so offensive then (1) why would it even be on the page (without saying it's wrong), and (2) why would you not try to have it removed from there? --Musdan77 (talk) 18:07, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I understand that. But, since you are so adamant about it being so offensive then I would think that you would want to post on the talk page to have the quote, and/or the other instances, removed. --Musdan77 (talk) 23:20, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Is this related to cisgender? because I find that term very offensive, does that mean you can delete it from Wikipedia? Despite hundreds of references to it on Wiki already? Not only is it from a German word meaning something else & opposite even. Then it's further mangled with an obscure prefix with two pronunciations. Miscegnation has a "hard" C, cisgender is "sisgender"? Chaos, cat, comfort; what word or words begin with a "soft" C? ≈≈≈≈ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2604:6000:A343:F100:C17B:FDDE:B4C3:4F85 (talk) 00:30, 28 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process.

This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

December 2015

[edit]

Information icon Hello, I'm Wikiisawesome. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions —the one you made with this edit to Alex Karev— because it didn’t appear constructive to me. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. /wia🎄/tlk 04:09, 16 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Your revert on my edit on Code Black (TV series)

[edit]

Hiya! I just wanted to follow up on your undoing of my edit on the Code Black article. As explained in my edit summary, I watch the show and can confirm that Luis Guzman's character name is Jesse Salander, not Jose Santiago—he introduces himself in the pilot episode as Jesse. I did read the source and frankly I'm not sure why the name is Jose; maybe the change in character name was made by the show's producers before it premiered. I would have appreciated an assumption of good faith on your part rather than undoing my edit without a clear explanation, as my edit wasn't made in bad faith. Nonetheless, I'm looking forward to hearing your thoughts on this edit. Thanks! 96.55.209.16 (talk) 03:22, 17 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

July 2017

[edit]

Information icon Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to Grey's Anatomy (season 14), but we cannot accept original research. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say and things you've seen but are not documented. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. Toddst1 (talk) 00:56, 23 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at Grey's Anatomy (season 14). Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is known as "edit warring" and is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, as it often creates animosity between editors. Instead of reverting, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to be blocked from editing Wikipedia. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. Thank you. Toddst1 (talk) 00:56, 23 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

A beer for you!

[edit]
Librarynerd, I corrected a few minor issues. In proper English, we never begin sentences with "and," "but," or "with" as those are incomplete thoughts and incomplete sentences.

You (or whoever wrote the profile) had started a couple of sentences with "but" when that is in violation of the rules of the English language. Hence, I corrected the errors.


The time abbreviations you used are NOT time abbreviations at all. When time is properly written, here are the actual abbreviations:

Abbreviations for time (correct and incorrect usages)(only two are correct) Capitalized "AM" (without periods) means: "amplitude modulation, master of arts."

Lower case "a.m." (with periods) means: "ante meridiem." (Latin: before noon)

Lower case "am" (without periods) means: "America, American, americium."

Capitalized "PM" (without periods) means: "paymaster, police magistrate, postmaster, postmortem, prime minister, provost marshal."

Lower case "p.m." (with periods) means: "post meridiem." (Latin: afternoon)

Lower case "pm" (without periods) means: "premium."

Librarynerd, Ryan Christopher Mouritsen sincere was a crew member for seasons 4, 5, 6 and six. He died in an ultralight plane crash on 27 Feb 2009. Here is a link to the video and article of his crash and death. Please do not remove him from being listed on REBA.

http://www.nbclosangeles.com/news/local/Ultralight-Crashes-at-Torrance-Airport.html

TIMES, DATES, AND TIME ZONES As we have folks from around the world on the KCC list and reading our webpages, it is always good to include EST (Eastern Standard Time) or EDT (Eastern Daylight Time) for notes to ensure people show up to your events on time. As so much of what is on the net is outdated, I always include the full date in the European style so we can let folks know these are future oriented events. Take a look at it to see how I use the dates and times. 0900 EST 4 February 2008 can only mean only mean one precise time and everyone can show up on time. The date 07 06 2008 could be one of two different dates that are about a month apart from one another.

Librarynerd, I hope you understand why I made a couple of minor updates to the REBA webpage. I hope you will appreciate my making those respectful corrections. I do appreciate the rest of the work you invested into that page as well as anyone else.

Lexie Grey

[edit]

Hello Librarynerds,

I've read the message that you've recently left on my talk page. My apologies for the excessive separate editing on the Wikipedia article Lexie Grey. I am merely trying to add as many sources as I possibly can for the season summaries as previously, these sections contained no proper references or sources at all. Please understand that I'm just trying to improve this article. I will take your advice into consideration and make changes to sections one at a time. Thanks and have a nice day!

Template:Marriage

[edit]

Read the documentation for the template, please. When reason=died is appended to the template, it means the marriage ended with the death of the spouse listed in the template. That is not what happened in the Grey's Anatomy storyline. There is no parameter to indicate the marriage ended with the death of the subject. At the time of death of the (fictional) subject, he remained married to his spouse. Reporting that the marriage ended in 2015, also listed as the year of death of the subject, is sufficient to indicate that his death terminated the marriage. General Ization Talk 04:15, 17 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

As for your restoration of significantother = Rose, you'll need to explain to me why you think that's appropriate when no one named "Rose" is mentioned anywhere in the body of the article. The infobox summarizes the article. If it doesn't appear in the article, it doesn't belong in the infobox. General Ization Talk 04:19, 17 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
