April 2009

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Merlin (TV series) has been reverted.
Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove unwanted links and spam from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. The external links I reverted were matching the following regex rule(s): \bwikia\.com\b (links: http://merlin.wikia.com/wiki/merlin_wiki, http://merlin.wikia.com/wiki/Merlin_wiki (redirect from http://merlin.wikia.com/wiki/merlin_wiki)).
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 21:03, 26 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Competition... Great.

I've seen you seem to create the pages as well. Great...... (I just liked to do the pages myself, thats all). I just have a few things however.

1. Never create a page without the actual episode title. Before you moved the page from Uther and the Troll to Beauty and the Beast, I saw you created the page with a false title. Please do not do this, as it may make visitors off guard. Never input a title without a reference. 2. Although Beauty and the Beast is a two parter, for all we know episode 6 could have a title title, like in Doctor Who, so please keep them seperate. 3. Great... competition...

lol

Just take those into account. I've done a lot for the show's pages, and I really hate it when people don't stick by the rules of Wiki. No offence.

Thanks

OK. First things first. Sorry for messing up with your standarts - I was just too excited when I learnt the title of episode five (without presuming it might not be the right one) and wanted to create an article about it. Now when all it's infact called Beauty and the Beast (Part One) I moved the page and added that this title represents both episodes five and six which in my opinion is the truth. Sorry once again if I've done anything wrong and all my hopes ;) Mortrainey (talk) 18:37, 10 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It's fine. I get excited about Merlin a lot too. When I see the title on a tv magazine website i go on, and when I see the plot sypnosis at the Press Office, i'm right on it in updating it up the page. It just gives me something to pass the time away to be honest ;) I still say leave episode 5 as it is. For all we know, it could have a different title, so just to be on the safe side. Wait until the 22nd, when the title of the episode is usually released. Well, atleast thats when it is on the website I go on ;)

Go Ahead ;)

OK. The website I go on says its is also Beauty and the Beast: Part One. I applogise. It's just its best when more than one website refferences it. You can put the page back to what it was now. But just to make it fun, I suppose we would have two seperate articles, just to widen Merlin ;) Goku1st (talk • contribs) 06:48, 15 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Merlin

Damnit. You beat me to making the page Sweet Dreams. CURSE YOOOOOOOOOU :) lol Goku1st (talk • contribs) 16:23, 15 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You did get to make The Fires Of Idirsholas before me. "Don't be such a prat" as Merlin says. ;) Mortrainey (talk) 20:23, 17 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sherlock Holmes poster

Hi Mortrainey, I've reverted the poster back to the one that was replaced. Fair use guidelines state that one side of the image has to be 300 pixels or less. Cheers... Quentin X (talk) 12:30, 8 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image File:Sherlock Holmes Theatrical Poster.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Sherlock Holmes Theatrical Poster.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.
