Mutant Chronicles

Regarding your recent edit to Mutant Chronicles (diff), I believe that Target Games AB is and always has been a child company of Paradox Entertainment, though Paradox had a different name originally. — Saxifrage ✎ 16:38, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

Hm, yeah, the company history of Target Games is kind of fuzzy.. At first (for instance) I thought Target started off under the name Äventyrsspel but others have said otherwise. I think Paradox was a child company of Target Games, and then Target went bust for some reason around -99 and the IP of Target was transfered to Paradox. I think I could source this but the sources are in Swedish and I don't know if the rules allows that. --Sus scrofa 17:11, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
I was playing Warzone at the time Target Ireland went belly-up and dragged the rest of the miniatures divisions with it. If I recall correctly, the parent company shut down Target and changed their own name to Paradox. What it was before I don't recall though. I believe the IP wasn't transferred though, but that it was always owned by the parent company. — Saxifrage ✎ 23:04, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
OK, so on in this pdf: http://runan.info/pdf/nummer/runan37.pdf (sidebar on page 26), Fredrik Malmberg, one of the founders of Äventyrsspel, is asked if Äventyrsspel began as a separate company that was then remade as Target Games. The answer is kind of fuzzy, but Malmberg says that Äventyrsspel had one ownership structure, Target Games one and Tradition (a game store) had another and that after some time the companies were joined into one concern with Target Games "on top" and Malmberg as general manager. No mention of Paradox.--Sus scrofa 20:23, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
Paradox "happened" a while after that. Ah, here's a good source for the article: http://www.mobygames.com/company/paradox-entertainment-ab ! There the author says that Target Games restructured into three divisions, with one being the "parent" of three other companies. The parent-of-three later changed its name to Paradox Entertainment, which later bought the IP of one of the others... Wow, and it gets even more complicated. I'm still not sure I understand what happened there after reading the article once through. In any case, it does sound like there was a transfer of IP, though only for legal reasons: it seems that Paradox is a direct descendant of the original Target Games (before it was called Target Games AB). — Saxifrage ✎ 20:42, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
Okay, I think I understand the history now: Target Games restructured into a company called Target Games which owned three other companies: Target Games AB, Target Games Adventure AB, and Target Games interactive AB. Target Games Adventure AB was the parent company of the US, Ireland, and UK comanies that produced Warzone and Cronopia. Target Games interactive AB then changed its name to Paradox Entertainment, bought Target Games Adventure AB from Target Games (the top-most company). Later, people from Target Games who had left the company bought Paradox Entertainment from Target Games so that Paradox was now an independent company.
So, Target Games, Target Games AB, and Paradox Entertainment are all different companies, though Target Games owns Target Games AB and used to own Paradox Entertainment. I think it would be accurate for the article to say that Mutant Chronicles was developed by Target Games and is now owned by Paradox Entertainment which is a spin-off from Target Games. Does that make sense? — Saxifrage ✎ 20:52, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
Yeah, that sounds about right. --Sus scrofa 21:04, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Actress Lane, Priscilla, promo photo.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Actress Lane, Priscilla, promo photo.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia 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 under fair use (see our fair use policy).

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 any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Rossrs 16:13, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

When I uploaded that image there was a licensing option for it in the drop down menu, that's all I remember frankly. Since there is a replacement image under free license in the Lane Sisters aricle the image could proably be deleted right away.--Sus scrofa 17:21, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

Mauser C96

Why must you remove the Han Solo reference on that page? That movie is perhaps the most prominent pop culture reference to the gun ever. 71.197.86.137 20:03, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

Sorry for the late reply, my internet has been down. It's my understanding that all such references should be listed at List of appearances of C96 in popular culture instead. Apparently the gun-focused wiki-editors have reached a consensus that pop culture references shouldn't appear in gun articles at all. --Sus scrofa 09:47, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Mutant,_box_cover_of_1989_version_of_Swedish_role-playing_game.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Mutant,_box_cover_of_1989_version_of_Swedish_role-playing_game.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 insure 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 fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ShakespeareFan00 13:30, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

I have tagged Image:Hale,_Barbara_01.jpg as {{no rationale}}, because it does not provide a fair use rationale.

La ley de Herodes

Hi, why do you keep changing "La ley de Herodes" name?... if you check other mexican movies in wikipedia, you'll notice that they keep their original names (for example "Y tu mamá también" and "Sexo pudor y lágrimas"

Thanks -nubita

Well, when I created the article about the film, I used the Spanish name but it was moved in accordance with Wikipedia:Naming conventions (use English) guideline. So in general film articles should use the English name if there is one.--Sus scrofa 19:03, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

Sorry, i didn't know it... thanks

Re your remark. 'please don't use the article as a notebook.'

I haven't. It's material left over by prior posters, who haven't troubled to keep in there and place it. It's their notebook stuff, not mine.Nishidani 12:03, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

The point is that leftover text shouldn't be left in the article; either delete it if it doesn't belong or move it to the talk page for discussion. Commenting out the text in question was sort of an ad hoc solution.--Sus scrofa 12:13, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

Abdul Baqi Purani

I remove the {{db-nonsense}} tag from Abdul Baqi Purani. May be AFD-able or PROD-able, but it's not the sort of thing that WP:CSD#G3 is intended to cover. I strongly suspect that it could be turned into more than a stub by someone who had access to a decent library. Best regards, Angus McLellan (Talk) 15:56, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

I thought {{db-nonsense}} covered WP:CSD#G1 and not 3?--Sus scrofa 17:07, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
It actually covers both, but, yes, G1 was what I should have said. Angus McLellan (Talk) 20:43, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

stop the macarthur edit war

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Douglas_MacArthur first of all, i am not Leavepower. i added citation, we must avoid none-neutral POV edit. some civic group is not epresent to all s.korean, OK? can you understand this mean? your edit is cleary out of neutral point of view. and influence to misunderstanding to s.korean. you word "south korean" which is too wide. you must distinguish some civic group from another s.korean. also, s.korea is "fully" democracy country. any demonstration is free. even anti-korea gov demonstration. Dutyterms

"South Korean groups" only marked the groups as being South Korean; it's not correct to say that wording would mean that they represent the whole country (the groups who want the statue to stay are also South Korean). For example, the Communist Party USA is an American group, its small size doesn't make a difference in that regard. The reason I reverted the first edit was because it marked the groups as "pro. North Korean", which was not supported by the citation, however I think the paragraph in question is fine as it is as of writing. The state of South Korean democracy has nothing to do with the subject at hand.--Sus scrofa 14:04, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

Might is Right deletions

Hallo-Why do you keep censoring relevant sociological and confirmatory material relating to the thesis of Redbeard when users obviously would benefit from a solid background and scholarly comparison with scientifically associated sources? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 63.3.10.1 (talk) 02:57:15, August 19, 2007 (UTC)

Because the texts added contain no discussion at all how it is relevant to the article; they're just random blocks of quotes from other sources. The talk page is for discussing the content of the article, everything else can be removed at any time according to Wikipedia policy. Comparisons between Might is Right and other works must be sourced, i.e. the comparison must be made by a secondary (an academic work) or otherwise it constitutes original research. --Sus scrofa 10:33, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

Hi, I am not trying to start an argument; however, I would like further clarification for your reversal of my edits on this page so that I can avoid making similar mistakes in the future. CheersSoulparadox (talk) 11:52, 26 July 2012 (UTC)

Sorry, I fouled up. I only intended to add a link to the internet archive for the Martin quote, but the fact that I was editing an older version of the page with other changes fell out of my mind. I'll fix it.--Sus scrofa (talk) 11:59, 26 July 2012 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use Image:M Emmet Walsh as the private dective in the Coen brothers movie Blood Simple.JPG

Replaceable fair use
Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:M Emmet Walsh as the private dective in the Coen brothers movie Blood Simple.JPG. I noticed the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if not used in an article), per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Sus, I'm as confused as you are. Look at the edit history for Glock pistol for an insight.

Sorry for the confusion. I was banned for edit warring. You were editing during my ban period. Because we edit many of the same articles, I think that my stalker believed you were a sock puppet of me trying to evade the ban. The investigation page is gone so there is nothing to do now. You might, however, want to check up on user:Theserialcomma's actions as he has a way of not dropping the stick and might still feel you are a sock puppet. Sorry for the interruption. Resume regular sock puppetry... uh I mean editing. We all know that I'm really a sock puppet of user:Jetwave Dave, having repented for my sins and now just here to confuse the innocent. --Nukes4Tots (talk) 01:01, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:Delta C64 game screenshot.JPG

Hello Sus scrofa,

Thank you for correcting my English!!!

I have just a problem with this sentence: ...but the first of this new type of U-boat only became ready for combat at the end of the war. I want to say that some of this U-boats were at the end of the war operational (something like 10). In German it is possible to use the word first (erst) in the way of one or some. Now I don't know if only one boat is ment or some. When only one boat is ment please change the sentence to the meaning of some U-boats. May be in this way: ....but the first boats of this new type of U-boat only became ready for combat at the end of the war. Thank you for your help -- Rakell (talk) 20:37, 11 October 2011 (UTC)

Beretta 93R

Hi, I saw you made some improvements to the Beretta article but I am confused with some of the alterations you made to the article itself.

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Woodstock '94 poster.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:Woodstock '94 poster.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 15:12, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

M1 Garand effective range questions

This is a very interesting topic and the answer varies a lot depending on who you read, what type ammo they are using and whether it is off the rack or customized. But the specific reference cited on the table lists 500 yards. I'd suppose this will be a debate which will never end. Trilobitealive (talk) 00:28, 7 March 2013 (UTC)

Well, in my edit I just assumed that the 440 yards figure was from the cited source as the edit summary said nothing about where that figure came from. The problem with establishing the "effective range" of a firearm is that there is (apparently) no universal definition; so the armed forces of the world have different definition of just what constitutes "effective range". Then different writers can have their own definition and so on, which contributes to the proliferation of different estimates. --Sus scrofa (talk) 00:35, 7 March 2013 (UTC)

Assault Gun

The problem with the term is that there is no citation or reference for it. The Assault gun article has one reference and it does not backup the use of the term. If its not common usage, how can it be confusing? --Scalhotrod - Just your average banjo playing, drag racing, cowboy... (talk) 17:32, 12 September 2013 (UTC)

A search of Google books for "assault gun" gives a bunch of hits for the armored fighting vehicle type called assault gun (apparently a Germanism derived from Sturmgeschütz). I believe this shows that the term is in use, maybe not in common use, but in literature about World War II it seems pretty common.--Sus scrofa (talk) 18:45, 12 September 2013 (UTC)
Great, so you've added them as citations in the Assault Gun article? If not, we still have the same problem. --Scalhotrod - Just your average banjo playing, drag racing, cowboy... (talk) 02:22, 13 September 2013 (UTC)
Well, I think I have shown that it is in common use, and that is enough in my opinion. But the squeaky wheel can get the grease since this isn't super important.--Sus scrofa (talk) 08:17, 13 September 2013 (UTC)
