Happy New Year!

The Chronic has given you a bottle of Cristal! Cristal costs $350, and hopefully this bottle has made your New Year's Day better. Spread the spirit of the New Year by giving a bottle of Cristal to someone else, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. Happy editing!
Give a bottle of Cristal to someone else by adding {{subst:User:The Hybrid/Finger}} to their talk page with a friendly... wait...

RE:My recent closes at FLC

I just wanted to address your concerns about my closes. List of poker hands - 12 days, 12 support, 2 oppose (and the nom addresses the copyright issues that were raised by both opposes). That was farely clear-cut consensus to me. Calgary Flames seasons - 13 days, 4 support, 1 neutral, 1 oppose. Here i used my discretion that the oppose and neutral because the list wasnt comprehensive on the Flames seasons as a whole, even though the title, the warning at the top (which gives a link to the other season list), and the lead all make it painfully clear this is about the Flames while in Calgary. The list garnered the correct amount of supports and the oppose/neutral were weak/borderline unfounded. I hope this helps explain my closes, although I am more concerned about how Crzycheetah closed the noms, not whether or not I feel the lists should be promoted.
Gonzo fan2007 ^{talk ♦ contribs} 21:41, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

Yeah but the top of WP:FL says that the list requires 4 supports. One support would be the nom, and then one would be the closer, so in theory only 2 people would have to support to get a list passed. I also disliked how he just voted support and closed at the same time. Maybe if he supported and waited a couple of hours than closed it wouldnt have been that bad. Also, he just voted support, which precedence has shown that just voting Support or Oppose usually will get your vote indented or disregarded. I think a combo of things made me unhappy with these closes, and I would rather see him vote support, than have you or me or someone else go and close the nom for the sake of policy and transparency.

Rock and Roll Hall of Fame

Are there any specific newspaper articles that seemed helpful? So far, I haven't seen anything that lists each member from each band. Zagalejo^^^ 04:39, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

I found a photo of Earth, Wind and Fire that shows the band members accepting their award. The caption reads, "Earth, Wind & Fire, from left, Maurice White, Verdine White, Philip Bailey, Ralph Johnson, Larry Dunn, Al McKay, Andrew Woolfolk, and Johnny Graham, pose after accepting their award during the 15th annual Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Dinner on Monday at New York's Waldorf Astoria Hotel." ("Photo: Earth, Wind & Fire accept award". Naples Daily News. March 7, 2000. pg. A02.) Zagalejo^^^ 04:53, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

As for the Moonglows, the best I can find is a list of nominees from September 1999. It says, "The Moonglows are represented by Harvey Fuqua, Bobby Lester, Peter Graves, Prentiss Barnes and Billy Johnson." (John Soeder. "Canton's O'Jays, Aerosmith among Rock Hall finalists". The Plain Dealer. September 22, 1999. Entertainment, 1.) Of the other groups, it says, "The nominated members of Earth, Wind & Fire are Maurice White, Verdine White, Philip Bailey, Larry Dunn, Johnny Graham, Al McKay, Andrew Woolfolk, Ralph Johnson and Fred White.... The Lovin' Spoonful lineup featured John Sebastian, Steve Boone, Zal Yanovsky and Joe Butler." Zagalejo^^^ 05:02, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Das Bus

Hey, can you get a reference for the plot to this episode. The GA reviewer wants just that to be fixed, and he will pass it! Ctjf83 ^talk 06:28, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

actually never mind, I just used the dvd as a plot ref, and the bbc site, like the reviewer suggested Ctjf83 ^talk 06:42, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

On my user page, can you put the articles in the GAs section into 2 lists one on the left and one on the right side of that section. Hopefully, eventually, it will get really long for one list! Ctjf83 ^talk 19:33, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

On my user page, can you put the articles listed under the "good articles" section into 2 columns. Like the last 2 in a column on the right side of that section. Is that possible? Ctjf83 ^talk 19:44, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Sorry that totally messed it up, it is one back in my history if you wanna see what it did. Any other ideas? Ctjf83 ^talk 19:55, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Is there a way to fix the right column so it's lined up the same, where each title is on one line? Ctjf83 ^talk 20:02, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Ok, that works..thanks! BTW, who is working on The Principal and the Pauper? It just says multiple people. Ctjf83 ^talk 20:11, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Ok, and as for Ralph, I just watched the commentary, and they said it is Nelson's voice, done by Nancy. Is that enough to say it isn't Ralph, or you do remember them sayin that is his first appearance? Ctjf83 ^talk 20:17, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Just for curiosity, do you have all 10 seasons on DVD? Ctjf83 ^talk 20:26, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Have we decided if tvsquad.com is reliable source for CRs? Ctjf83 ^talk 20:54, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Ahhhhh

You know what it was, I have all the times on Wiki changed to my time, but I have a script that shows me UTC time. I did my math from those. I'm sorry, it wont happen again. In my defense both were inactive and pretty clear cut, but I wont do it again. Like I said it was my mistake wih my clocks. Sorry again!

The City of New York vs. Homer Simpson

I was wondering if you could do a general copy edit of anything you see worded badly or anything. It's currently a GA candidate. Thanks! xihix(talk) 21:15, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

A Question

I asked User:Cirt this, but he was confused too, and asked me to ask you. I'll just copy and paste what I asked Cirt...

I wanted to nominate an article for the main page, but I wasn't aware that the nomination for a day like, February 1st, could be so early. I was looking at the nomination page today, and I saw that someone had already took it. I wanted the page, as the article I am nominating is an album that came out on that day. So, could I nominate the article for the 2nd, and it show up during part of the 1st? Because in my time zone (GMT -5), I believe it would, but I may be thinking of the 31st of January instead. I'm too confused to tell which one it would be, so I figured you may know. xihix(talk) 01:53, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Yes, I'm aware of the Lost episode, which was why I was wondering if I were to nominate either the 31st or the 2nd to have the album appear sometime during the 1st on GMT -5. xihix(talk) 02:01, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Futurama episodes reviewed for WP:EPISODE compliance

Hi Scorpion, I think you're aware of some of the drama surrounding WP:EPISODE and it's enforcement. It appears that in the near future Futurama episodes will be reviewed to judge their compliance with various policies and guidelines including WP:NOT#PLOT, WP:NOTE, WP:FICT and WP:EPISODE. Since you are a member of WikiProject Futurama I'd really appreciate if you would participate in the upcoming discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Futurama#Status of the episodes?. Thanks for your inputs. Stardust8212 03:01, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Understandable, I know you guys are doing a lot of good work over there. Feel free to pop in on the discussion though even if you don't have time to work on the articles, I plan to present a list of those articles that should stay and those that should be merged and I may need a few more level-headed opinions (the balance between those who want to merge everything and those who want to keep everything is very precarious). Stardust8212 16:11, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

DYK credit

On 8 January, 2008, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Yvon Pedneault, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

--Archtransit (talk) 15:48, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

HHOF

I read both articles, and made a few very minor changes. Both articles look excellent to me. The only suggestion I have for "fattening" the table in the list would be to add a column for the years each player was active, though I am not sure that is necessary. On the Hockey Hall of Fame article, you have several citations that are simply "Honoured members: the Hockey Hall of Fame" Is that a book? If so, you might want to convert that to a {{Cite Book}} template for consistency with the format of the other citations. I'm also not sure if note 13 is even necessary. I'd definitely say that the list is FL worthy now, and that the HHOF article is very close to FA calibre as well. Awesome job on both! Resolute 19:20, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Sideshow Bob

Hi, I've been adding a section to Sideshow Bob, based on material from Leaving Springfield. Could you look it over? --Maitch (talk) 13:22, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

Hockey Hall of Fame

To be honest, I don't know much about FA (certainly not as much as I do about GA), but from a cursory skim, I can note a few things:

1. The lead needs to conform to WP:LEAD. Specifically, it must adequately summarize all the major points/headings made in the article. Even just skimming it, I can tell there's nothing in the lead about "Exhibits," "Controversy" or "Gil Stein controversy"
2. "Morrison would supervise the task of relocating the Hall of Fame and on June 18, 1993, the Hockey Hall of Fame relocated and opened at its new location in downtown Toronto." (Operations and organization) requires a citation
3. "As of 2007, the selection committee consists of: chairman James M. Gregory, Scotty Bowman, Colin Campbell, Ed Chynoweth, John Davidson, Eric Duhatschek, Jan-Ake Edvinsson, Mike Emrick, Michael Farber, Emile Francis, Dick Irvin, Jr., Lanny McDonald, Yvon Pedneault, Pat Quinn, Serge Savard, Harry Sinden, Peter Stastny and Bill Torrey." (Hall of Fame). This one-sentence paragraph in the middle of this section disrupts the flow of the article and should be either expanded or mereged with the surrounding paragraphs.

Other than that, I think it looks pretty good, surely worth nominating anyhow. The FA review will probably point out a bunch of stuff that I missed, but hopefully the above will address a few of the issues. If nothing else, I can say that there's nothing very obvious to me that would disqualify it as a Good Article, but, again, I only gave it a cursory review. Sorry I can't be of more help. Cheers, CP 07:10, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

The Principal and the Pauper

How are things coming on this one, relatively close to WP:GAC status? Also curious, who else is working on it besides yourself, it'd be nice to put down the individual editors at WP:DOH/TOPIC. Cirt (talk) 01:28, 12 January 2008 (UTC).

• Oooh, FA, nice, good luck! I think I've added all I can to that article, to the Reception section, but I'll see if I can find some more sources/analysis. I'm also going to try to get The Last Temptation of Krust to FA, if possible. I really don't feel like working on All Singing, All Dancing to get that last one up to WP:GAC, I hope someone else will work on it... Cirt (talk) 01:52, 12 January 2008 (UTC).
  • FYI - Rudget (talk · contribs) has been busy with his WP:RfA, but had said The Last Temptation of Krust and Lisa's Sax would be reviewed soon. With Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Rudget 2 looking like it will finish shortly, Rudget will probably get around to this in a bit. Cirt (talk) 01:59, 12 January 2008 (UTC).

recurring character images

In a follow up to my idea of putting the recurring character images you had to take out on a different page, it would seam it was necessary, because the ones I did not put anywhere are now... well, gone. They don't appear on the old revisions anymore, and the name has a red link. Would you know is images are removed/taken away if they have not been used in a long time? Because I think that would be the case with these. Do you know if the images can be brought back? Rhino131 (talk) 02:44, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

That's too bad, but at least I "saved" some. I don't know how hard it would be to re upload them, but if anyone knows how and wants too...? Speaking of recurring characters, do you want to remove Cecil now? Two episodes have aired after Funeral, so maybe people won't notice. And I am thinking about adding the barber, plus other characters where enough appearances/info is available because of that one discussion. Rhino131 (talk) 02:59, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

TSM

What? The guy withdrew it because Buc said to... I was actually looking forward to an FAC, and then it goes and gets withdrawn... I got a good mind to nominate again myself actually, because it isn't like you can't work on it during an FAC... Anyway, a copy edit would be great, thanks! Gran² 15:43, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, if any other random user nominates it, then leave it open and see how it goes. I'll nominate again somtime later this week, but no later than Friday afternoon. As for episodes, whatever the other guys think, we may as well make a list of the season 11-19 that are notable enough to be saved anyway, whatever the outcome of the Arb case. Because, like you, I'm really getting tired of people going on about the fact we have a page for every episode, so merging those that we can't right now/never will be able to get sufficient out of universe content for might be for the best. Gran² 15:54, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

All Singing, All Dancing

Can you add a brief plot summary to the Lead/Intro? Aside from that, I'm going to add a bit more using the Dunne reference from the Further reading section, and then after a quick proofread this one should be ready for WP:GAC. Meanwhile after some work is done subsequent to ongoing Peer Review for two other recently passed GAs, those might be ready for WP:FAC, albeit probably better to do them one at a time over there... Cirt (talk) 09:31, 15 January 2008 (UTC).

• Okay, I expanded All Singing, All Dancing using the Dunne source, so if you could expand the Lead/Intro with some minor plot summary stuff, I think we're ready for WP:GAC on this one. What do you think? Cirt (talk) 10:08, 15 January 2008 (UTC).
  • Thanks, I nominated it up at WP:GAC, great work together! Cirt (talk) 20:55, 15 January 2008 (UTC).

List of The Simpsons episodes

Do you want me to turn every Simpsons episode article that doesn't contain outside sources into a redirect and remove the wikilinks to them from List of The Simpsons episodes? Will that help you find those articles and improve them? --Pixelface (talk) 17:43, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

Rock and Roll

Personally, I would keep it to officially inducted ones, though I can see the usefulness of it. I would just leave it as an external link. It is up to you though. Put it this way, for me it is not a reason to oppose unless the page starts to look unwieldy. Personal preference I suppose. It is not really my subject matter. For my area of MILHIST and Soccer, we wouldn't usually include the nominees. Hope this helps in some way. Woody (talk) 01:23, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

Centralized TV Episode Discussion

Over the past months, TV episodes have been redirected by (to name a couple) TTN, Eusebeus and others.

Discussion is here [1]. Even if you have not, other opinions are needed because this issue is affecting all TV episodes in Wikipedia. --Maniwar (talk) 19:42, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

Some Enchanted Evening

Hi. Did your hear the commentary? Did it contain anything usefull? Do you think it can become a FA or should we just aim for GA? How it is going with Sideshow Bob, anyway. I think it is ready for a peer review. --Maitch (talk) 10:09, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

Sure I would like to help. I don't think I have time over the weekend though. Maybe on monday. I also have the philosophy book, so I can see if there is anything to add from there. --Maitch (talk) 19:15, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the help at least. You're right that it is completely useless. I'm going to do my own screenshots. I would really like to do a before and after image if that is possible. I now don't think it is FA worthy. The production is good, but the cultural references and reception sections are too short. --Maitch (talk) 14:46, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

Re:Your comments

Hello, I understand as to why these wikipedians are opposing the list, however as per Wikipedia:Featured list candidates>Supporting and objecting, you must provide a specific rationale of how your "Oppose" can be changed to a "Support". I can understand why you are opposing the list for this reason, however how can I rectify this or any other issue with this problem - I require a means of knowing how to edit accordingly, a specific rationale. It is a basic requirement. Thanks! Hpfan9374 (talk) 02:07, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

I just wanted to say congrats on this list becoming featured. I just looked it over again, and it's truly one of the best lists we have on WP. It is, without a doubt, among the 'pedia's "best work", and you should be proud. -- Mike (Kicking222) 19:53, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

I posted this on the more active members of the project, so I'll post it for you too....We have made a list of vandals that continually vandalizes Kill Gil: Vols. 1 & 2 by changing "Christmas" to "Crime", the list can be found here. If you revert the vandalism, i would give the warning {{subst:uw-vandalism4im|Article}} which says this is the only warning they will receive.

Delhi Travellers

Hello, I will be removing the PROD on the Travellers page. I have been in the process of researching this team as well as most of the teams affiliated with it. I have their history back until at least 1988, and in a couple months I will attempt to go back as far as 1967 when they were founded. It is funny that you PROD'd it now because I was going to build the article this coming week.

Do not worry, the description will be fixed and a better assertion of notability will be added. As well I will be adding 18 years of stats, a history including two league championships in the Southern Counties league and four Provincial finals appearances, and a team infobox. DMighton (talk) 00:36, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

Sounds good to me. I am going to remove the PROD now, I work until 1 pm tomorrow and I'll get cracking on it tomorrow evening/night... DMighton (talk) 01:02, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

Next

On a project level: I'm gong to try and get Hank Azaria and 22 Short Films to FA. As far a new project, I really don't mind what we do. For a non-project related article: I'm going to try and get another film page to GA, and get the Best Drama Emmys list to FL, and then do the same for some of the other Emmy awards. Gran² 15:39, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

The family members are going to be a slow process, because (although they're important), they're not really the most interesting to do. Phil Hartman has been a long goal for me, so doing his page would be great. The list of writers would be a nice FL as well. Gran² 16:05, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

Style of list of DVD releases

From the conversation at Wikipedia talk:Featured lists, started by me, now removed:

Is there a style to be followed with regards to a list of DVD releases for a TV series?

I'm looking at Smallville DVD releases and Lost DVD releases. I prefer the Smallville style, but am concerned about the number of fair-use images, in the way that discography lists shouldn't use them. Has a precedent been set anywhere yet? Do other editors have a preferred style of these kind of lists?

I didn't know which place was best to ask, which is why I went to the talk page of the Featured Lists. Help talk:List is a barren desert! Where is the correct place to ask, and also, what would be your opinion on the best kind of list? Thanks -- Matthew Edwards | talk | Contribs 21:44, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

Bill Oakley

Unfortunately, I'm not sure how we'd get around the original research issue. We do have a featured article that uses Usenet postings from the creator of Babylon 5 as a source, but that article has been controversial, and will probably be deleted eventually. At best, maybe Oakley can point us in the direction of some obscure print sources.

I'll look into the IRC thing later tonight or sometime tomorrow night. If no one's there, I'll post some thoughts on a project page. Zagalejo^^^ 04:38, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Bill Oakley? Wow! How did you manage to arrange it? I have no idea how to use IRC, but I'll try and think up some questions. Do you think he would know anything about religion in the simpsons? What ideas did you have? --Simpsons fan 66 03:05, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

Thank you for the invite. I was just trying to familiarise myself with the episodes he produced. Would it be better to ask about the episodes he actually wrote though? Writers seem to be more prominent on TV. Lastly, how many questions can I ask? Alientraveller (talk) 10:22, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

Ooh tough choice. A chance to chat with my favourite showrunner, or sleep? Hmmm, depends which day it is, if its a Saturday/Sunday, or during the week after next (ie. any day I don't have school) then I might be on there at 1.00 AM. But if not, a session about four or five hours earlier would be good. Anyway, I'll post some questions on the project page in case I can't be on there "live". Gran² 16:54, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

That 90's show

Uhh, why did you template me? I undid the same thing that you did, and attempted to discuss on the talk page. The user is a vandal, they just blanked my userpage.--The Dominator (talk) 04:20, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

Well, I don't think it's fair, I was removing something that was bordering vandalism, and you agree with me, you reverted the same edit. I think Wikipedia's 3rr policy should be changed.--The Dominator (talk) 04:23, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

Well sorry, but they were also removing sourced stuff without an edit summary, which is vandalism.--The Dominator (talk) 04:26, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

List of writers of The Simpsons

I'm thinking about making this page an FL. How do you suggest I order the list?

Let me know. xihix(talk) 22:29, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

Christopher Walken filmography FLC

Hey, so I was wondering if you could comment again on the Christ Walken filmographary FLC. You supported at first, but then went to neutral once some not-so reliable sources were discovered.

Well that's what thought at first, but the more I looked at it, the more I thought it really was here. Anyway, I commented at the images source, asking is it really was her; I don't know if I've got a response yet. But I just uploaded it anyway. Gran² 15:41, 4 February 2008 (UTC)

Strike out vs  Done

Hey Scorpion, just a quick word, I noticed you unstruck some comments on an FLC I commented in suggesting the use of the {{done}} template. Over at WP:FAC it's the opposite. Should we aim to have a standard approach to how to deal with comments against featured candidates as a whole? The Rambling Man (talk) 15:57, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, no worries, thanks. I was just concerned that FAC vs FLC are giving out different messages... The Rambling Man (talk) 17:08, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, of course I can, not a problem. When I get a moment between bits and pieces I'll have a look. The Rambling Man (talk) 17:56, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

FA delisting of list of particles

Hockey Hall of Fame

Hi there - I see that this is currently up for FAC, and that there have been some suggestions about a copy edit from a different perspective. My first impression was that it was a sound article. While I am somewhat familiar with the subject (enough to pick up any serious problems with content), I think I may be able to help out with this. Do you mind if I have a go? Risker (talk) 02:19, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

Okay, I've started, and will continue tomorrow evening. If I have questions about content, I will post them at the FAC page so that other reviewers can see them as well. So far, I'm noting a fair amount of use of the passive voice, which I will do my best to correct. As well, I note several compound sentences discussing two separate concepts held together with a conjunction; mostly, I am separating the two ideas or rearranging them with neighbouring sentences. If I have changed the context of what you are saying, please revert. It wouldn't hurt if we can persuade Tony1 to take a good solid look at it as well, but the basic information is sound. Risker (talk) 04:48, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

Haven't forgotten about this copy editing; in fact, as I write this I am slaving over hard copy because that just seems to work better for me - old school, I guess. I want to give you the heads-up that it will be a rather significant rewrite, and there will definitely be some questions on the FAC page for you to follow up, so please don't be too shocked. The content is just fine (with a few points for clarification), but I am reconstructing a fair number of sentences and rearranging a bit of the content to group it more logically. If you really hate what I have done (when I have finished doing it), please feel free to revert to your preferred version; I will understand completely. Risker (talk) 04:36, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

Ah yes, I vaguely remember the Vaughan Watch guy, he made himself a nuisance in a lot of places if I remember correctly. (Rest assured I am not he!) Curiously, one of my favourite childhood memories was the summer my dad took me to both of the HHOFs, probably 1966 or so. Although they've both changed drastically since then, I remember them having a very different flavour. The Toronto one was "all NHL, all the time" so to speak, whereas the Kingston one was much more eclectic, with amateur and international displays even back then. Most of the NHL stuff in Kingston came from players who'd grown up or played in the area, if I remember correctly. I've put my support up for the article as it is now, but I will keep my eyes open for reference sources that fill the gaps I've mentioned. Some of that info will show up in unexpected places, I think. Good luck with the FAC. Risker (talk) 03:01, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

Congratulations[4]! Risker (talk) 00:16, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the barnstar, I was happy to help out, and I'll gladly do so again in the future. Just to satisfy my own curiosity, I did a bit of research at the library yesterday to see if I could find answers to the questions I'd posed; didn't have much luck, so unless there is some esoteric "unofficial story of the HHOF" book out there, or it's in some scholarly tome about the NHL, I doubt much will surface. If I ever do find that info, I'll add it into the article and let you know. Risker (talk) 20:47, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Snowball II.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Snowball II.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media 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 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:06, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

Long-term Survivor vandal

Since you are one of the ones who often catches the vandalism like this to the current Survivor season and similar vandalism to last season, if you see him again and revert him, can you also check and revert his other edits? They are almost always just as bad a the Survivor change. He often vandalizes American Idol, Big Brother, Dancing with the Stars, Dance War, and Cars related articles at the same time. I've been blocking him when he appears, but he seems to have multiple IPs, that are interestingly in different geographic regions. Anyways, if you could check his other edits when you revert the Survivor edit, that would be great. =) -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 07:08, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

Comic book guy dispute

"The following are a list of fictional recurring characters in the animated television show, The Simpsons. The list does not contain recurring characters who are also students of Springfield Elementary, staff of Springfield Elementary, recurring animals, members of the Springfield Mafia, fictional characters within the simpsons or celebrities of Springfield."

Why shouldn't comic book guy be listed?

He is a recurring character, but he isn't a student, isn't a staff member, is not an animal, isn't part of the mafia, isn't a simpson's fictional character, and isn't a celebrity.

I'm aware that comic book guy has is own article, but what's wrong with a simple link to that article in this list? By the above logic, it should be at least linked.

Fair use rationale for Image:LionelHutz.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:LionelHutz.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

I think that consensus chose to use "at least 20%" in place of "one fifth" was to show that it is a mathimatical minimum. Five out of 26 articles is only 19%, not quite enough. If you disagree with my interpretation of the consensus, you are free to bring it up at Wikipedia talk:Featured topic criteria. --Arctic Gnome (talk • contribs) 01:11, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

Daniel Faraday

Hi, can you explain why you think his name should be Daniel in the box? His one word name is clearly Faraday. Have you read any of the press releases? Besides, like Locke, his last name is also a famous philosopher/scientist, so that makes it even more obvious that his name should be listed as Faraday. Yes, Eko is listed as Mr. Eko because that's his "official" name. Does that make sense? --Alexisfan07 28 February 2008 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Alexisfan07 (talk • contribs) 04:07, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

But can't the same be said for Mr. Eko? He typically went by Eko. Besides, the producers refer to him as Faraday in their podcasts, and Frank referred to him as Faraday in tonight's episode. Plus, the character's name was originally "something else Faraday", meaning the key part of his name is Faraday. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Alexisfan07 (talk • contribs) 04:18, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
