Past Warnings[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing. However, unconstructive edits are considered vandalism, and if you continue in this manner you may be blocked from editing without further warning. Please stop, and consider improving rather than damaging the hard work of others. Thanks. JDoorjam Talk 00:02, 9 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This is your last warning.
The next time you vandalize a page, as you did to Parthenogenesis, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Gwernol 11:02, 12 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop. If you continue to vandalize pages, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia.

Do these warnings ever expire? I mean, it's been like six months since that last message was put there, and being "blocked" from Wikipedia seems a little harsh. -dogman15 03:46, 9 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Blanking[edit]

Please refrain from blanking current warnings from this page. Thanks. --Yamla 02:15, 22 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

They're hardly "current" anymore. dogman15 (talk) 19:47, 20 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

False Accusations[edit]

Regarding all of these messages, at no time whatsoever did I have any intention of vandalism. I love Wikipedia too much to do something like that. On these 2 (or 3: see here) occasions, I apologize for any minor damages I may have made. However, I did not believe that I was vandalising at the time. If there is a way that the Wikipedia community could forgive me for this, that would be appriciated. Thank You.

(P.S. I don't even remember what that first one was anyway.)

Maybe you should hash encrypt your page or whatever they say when you log in or something like that. Jasonxu98 (talk) 18:54, 3 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I'm really not concerned about it anymore, but thank you for your suggestion. Hey! You're the guy who started the MIDIjam article, right? dogman15 (talk) 03:54, 4 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,

Thank you for your stub submission. You may wish to note that it is preferable to use a stub template from Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Stub types instead of using simply {{stub}}, if you can.

Thanks!--Vox Causa 22:49, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Relient K[edit]

Hey, just a head's up I keep on unwiki-linking the Sadie Hawkin's Dance in the Relient K article because it references what a Sadie Hawkin's Dance is not the song. Giving you a heads up why I am going to revert it back.--DJREJECTED 21:30, 3 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Nationalization vs. nationalisation[edit]

Welcome, and thank you for correcting spelling on Wikipedia! However, both spellings of the word you "corrected" are acceptable.

Please familiarize yourself with American and British English spelling differences before making further spelling corrections to articles. Wikipedia has 47,454,003 registered users on this English Wikipedia. These editors use different versions of English including American English and British English. The list of dialects of the English language goes on and on.

When many styles are acceptable, avoid changing from one style to another unless there is some substantial reason for the change. It is acceptable to change from American spelling to British spelling only if the article concerns a British topic or vice versa or if you are making the article internally consistent.

More information is available at Wikipedia's Manual of Style. Enjoy your time on the encyclopedia. Thank you. —Josiah Rowe (talkcontribs) 04:53, 14 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Josiah. I didn't know about that particular British spelling rule. :) -dogman15 21:05, 15 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Also[edit]

I was about to put a link to my dad's new DJ website, but then I thought I shouldn't because that would be advertising. Just thought I'd say so. (Never mind.) 235,711

Thanks a lot for signing my autograph page. It's now one of my three treasured autographs. A•N•N•Afoxlover PLEASE SIGN HERE, ANYONE! 03:01, 3 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

While I appreciate you trying to clean up this article a bit (for example with the infobox) - you adding "really?" to the end of a citation template is considered vandalism. I won't give you an official warning since your other edit was in relatively good faith, but consider this a warning of a warning.Daniel()Folsom |\T/|\C/|\U/|(Can you help me with my signature?) 12:30, 8 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What I meant was (more or less, along the lines of): "Is a citation really needed for this?" I made the "really" in superscript so it would be known I was referring to the "{{cite}}". As I look back on this event, I realize that the talk page would've been a better place to put this.
Here is what that page looked like then:

"Very minor. The character is only seen in two scenes of varying importance. He is first seen having his tires changed, and then is seen in the crash.[citation needed]really?"

Orphaned Images: Say Goodbye![edit]

(Dumb bots. They don't know a good picture when they see one...)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Mario_Andretti.jpg)[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Mario_Andretti.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 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. BigDT 02:26, 4 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image:Hamm_Car.jpg[edit]

I have tagged Image:Hamm_Car.jpg as {{orphaned fairuse}}. In order for the image to be kept at Wikipedia, it must be included in at least one article. If this image is being used as a link target instead of displayed inline, please add {{not orphan}} to the image description page to prevent it being accidentally marked as orphaned again.

Image:Sallycarrera.jpg[edit]

Hello, Dogman15. An automated process has found and removed an image or media file tagged as nonfree media, and thus is being used under fair use that was in your userspace. The image (Image:Sallycarrera.jpg) was found at the following location: User:Dogman15. This image or media was attempted to be removed per criterion number 9 of our non-free content policy. The image or media was replaced with Image:NonFreeImageRemoved.svg , so your formatting of your userpage should be fine. Please find a free image or media to replace it with, and or remove the image from your userspace. User:Gnome (Bot)-talk 08:35, 14 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Cars Characters[edit]

It's sad that the Wikipedia community thinks that most of the Cars characters should not even be mentioned, not even have a picture. If you go to Answers.com, though, you'll find an archived version of the List of Cars characters article, with all the pictures that I uploaded to it. dogman15 14:47, 30 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Barbie as Rapunzel.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Barbie as Rapunzel.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. 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 it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 05:09, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Racing Doc Hudson.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Racing Doc Hudson.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use.

AfD nomination of Barbie as Rapunzel[edit]

An editor has nominated Barbie as Rapunzel, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Barbie as Rapunzel and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 20:59, 10 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Animorphs 43 The Test.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Animorphs 43 The Test.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. 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 it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 04:54, 12 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Unspecified source for Image:Old_NSMB.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Old_NSMB.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 03:41, 22 February 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rockfang (talk) 03:41, 22 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Your messages on my talk page read as if they were written by a bot. I'm not going to go to all this trouble just to keep one perfectly okay image on Wikipedia.

Orphaned non-free image File:Partly Cloudy (small).jpg[edit]

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Partly Cloudy (small).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. ZooFari 02:48, 14 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I uploaded that image when Partly Cloudy had no image, but then someone uploaded the film's poster under a different filename. If they had kept the filename but uploaded a new version of it, this wouldn't be happening. I guess since it only shows Gus and Peck and no title, and because it isn't currently being used in the article (it wouldn't work in any other articles), it can (and probably should) be deleted. dogman15 (talk) 07:21, 14 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Unreferenced BLPs[edit]

Hello Dogman15! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created is tagged as an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring this article up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 941 article backlog. Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the article:

Carl Fredricksen[edit]

Please watch your tone when addressing editors. " Please get his name right, people. If you're going to create an article, make sure you're spelling its title correctly." is not an appropriate way to speak; at no point did you need to speak down to anyone, nor did you need to say anything more than "fixing name." You could have observed that Carl Frederickson was the redirect created for the character's name, and his "real name" had no redirect, instead of assuming that I had "gotten the name wrong". - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 01:54, 28 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The text of my edit summary was composed at nearly the same exact time as when you were making your edits. At the time, I did not pay attention to who the editor was. I saw that it was you after attempting to move the page. What stopped me was that it said the title I was moving to was already in use. This is probably a good example of an edit conflict. You'll notice that I directed my statement to no one in particular ("people"). I'm sorry for offending you (I can sense your emotion seething through your text), but I hope we can forget about this.

"Toothless is male"?[edit]

On what basis? I've undone your edit [1] pending a source.--John (talk) 15:12, 11 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Here is a passage that already exists (and existed) in the plot summary, and I quote it here: "Toothless hears Hiccup's screams and rushes to save him. He quickly overpowers the dragon, the Vikings sent to capture him, and finally Stoick." In addition, Hiccup explicitly refers to Toothless (with Astrid) as male in the film. Calling Toothless and "it" totally goes against what the film's message of "dragons are not ferocious". I could go on, but I won't. I'm reverting to male pronouns. dogman15 (talk) 19:54, 11 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia is not a source, and neither is your recollection of the dialog. Can you provide a reliable source for your contention? --John (talk) 00:24, 12 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
At one minute and ten seconds into this video, Chris Sanders, the director of How to Train Your Dragon, refers to Toothless as "him". He says "That's where the design of Toothless and his behaviors and everything about him came from." (And before you point it out, I'll say this now: Shortly after talking about Toothless as "he" and "him", Chris Sanders talks about Night Furies in general, using the pronouns "it" and "they". This is not specifically Toothless.) Please stop. This is like asking if WALL-E is male or not. No one in that film refers to the title character by a pronoun, yet everyone in the film and in the real world agrees that he's male, despite being a robot. Toothless is (in the film's world) a living breathing creature with a definite gender. Besides, how would one cite spoken word in a film that's still in theaters? A timecode? The DVD isn't out yet. dogman15 (talk) 00:49, 12 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
That is a source of sorts, thanks. Next time, maybe we can have this discussion on the talk page, or you could just add the ref yourself. I am very keen to prevent How to Train Your Dragon from becoming a cruft collection, and eliminating anthropomorphism which is merely original research is a big part of that on a film like this. But I accept the evidence you have submitted on the issue of the gender of the dragon, even though it isn't really the best of sources, it'll do for now I think. Thanks again, --John (talk) 01:27, 12 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Toy Story 3 plot removal (before it turns into a revert war :) )[edit]

Hi, Dogman15 - The citations for the plot section do not support the plot section as it is written. The IGN article only discusses one scene where Andy's mother throws out the toys by accident and Woody attempts a rescue (and mentions the existence of a few other characters by name), and the WSJ article only mentions the day care center in passing. Neither mentions any information that are present in the last 4 paragraphs (or even the last half of the first paragraph). Unless you can find citations for that stuff, it is original research until reliable sources post plot information. Kjl (talk) 20:48, 21 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Even though I've seen the first 70 minutes of the film, and I know for a fact that the plot as given was accurate (though incomplete), I'll leave this alone for now... reluctantly. If people want the plot summary up to the cutoff point, they can go to the Pixar Wiki's article on Toy Story 3. dogman15 (talk) 00:30, 22 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Hi. "Vandal" here[edit]

Hello, Dogman15

I saw the discussion and I'll accept that it was not an act of vandalism (although I didn't find the discussion satisfactory). Sorry. Such mistakes happen, since vandals do a lot of such things.

As for this being the first time you are accused of being a wiki-vandal: No it isn't. You are already charged of being a vandal at least twice before this. If you don't remember them... well... Fleet Command (talk) 09:10, 4 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

That was back when I was very new to Wikipedia. It was a non-malicious edit related to Kangaskhan. I am by no means a vandal, nor have I ever purposefully vandalized any article on any wiki page anywhere. dogman15 (talk) 09:34, 4 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, look; some of us should read Wikipedia:Verifiability and Wikipedia:Citing sources more often. You see, in Wikipedia when something in an article is likely to be challenged, the contributor must add an inline footnote reference to it. You can't just put the source in talk page, where no ones looks at it, and then expect people not to challenge your seemingly odd assertion.

So, if you have reliable sources for that Red Dragon thing, add a <ref></ref> to the first instance of "Red Dragon" and cite your source in it. Use {{Cite video}} to your advantage.

If you are asking yourself why the I don't do it myself, that's because I don't own a DVD version of How to Train Your Dragon with commentary. Not all the people watch the movies on DVD, you know. After all, you know what theaters are made for, don't you?

Animorphs things[edit]

Hork-Bajir[edit]

I noticed you adding a pronunciation into Hork-Bajir earlier today, and saying you weren't sure if it was correct. Can you show where you got the information from? If it's from the author or the publisher directly, it is for all practical purposes the correct pronunciation. If not, we might be better off with no pronunciation at all. Soap 11:23, 10 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It took some searching, but I eventually found an archived author Q&A with K. A. Applegate from the Scholastic web site. In addition, the characters on the TV series pronounced it "Hork-buh-JEER", and many fans on message boards and YouTube videos agree with this. I am firm in believing it is not "Bah-Yeir" or whatever. -dogman15 (talk) 07:24, 11 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Animorphs (video game)[edit]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Animorphs (video game) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay.

IMBD on Pokemon[edit]

They're still relevant. Those links show all the places where that character was voiced. The information is free and not copyrighted, and removing it only makes Wikipedia less useful. dogman15 (talk) 21:32, 11 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I think there has been discussion before about IMDB on Pokemon species articles, and it was discouraged. Also, unless you are going to put it on all 46, they will not be uniform, and someone will wonder why it isn't on the other pages. Bring it up at WT:POKE before you put them on all the pages for nothing.Blake (Talk·Edits) 21:29, 11 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
See, this is different. I read those archived discussions, and they were about how IMDb was not a reliable source for citing articles, specifically an old revision of the Mewtwo article. Here, I'm not using IMDb as a source for citing, rather, I'm linking to it so that readers of an article about a Pokémon will have more related pages on the web to visit to get information they want. If I have to repeat my stance I've stated here somewhere else to be heard and listened to, I will. dogman15 (talk) 21:42, 11 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Like I said, I would bring it up at WikiProject Pokemon. It is a somewhat controversial change that some people might challenge. You need to be ready to say that it has been discussed, and it is allowed. Blake (Talk·Edits) 21:46, 11 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! But I've been working on a whole slew of Animorphs-related articles, not just the one Animorphs article. I've revamped character infoboxes, morph tables, character descriptions (and previously unlisted characters), and refinement of plot summaries. Which page did you first notice my work on, prompting you to note me here? dogman15 (talk) 07:52, 14 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference[edit]

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being minor in the usual way.

For power users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. With the script in place, you can continue with this functionality indefinitely (its use is governed by WP:MINOR). If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 18:04, 15 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

re:Thank you![edit]

I'm glad you liked it. ^^ About the movie, I didn't know about it until now (movies get very little exposure where I live), but looking at the reviews, it does seem like a good movie. I'll try to watch it someday. - Master Bigode (Talk) (Contribs) 19:16, 16 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Help on the rest of the MLP characters[edit]

Usually I kinda went off the wall and created several pages for the rest of the My Little Pony. Now, I need help proofing them. So can you volunteer?--Blackgaia02 (Talk if you're Worthy) (talk) 12:47, 14 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I saw the edits you made, but I don't think there's anything I want to add to their articles at this point. Eventually, we should include more information on their origins/development, and maybe some information from mlp.wikia.com. dogman15 (talk) 00:59, 15 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification[edit]

Hi. When you recently edited Koopalings, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page James Rankin (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

I realize you're just a bot, but for any humans reading this, James Rankin (actor) is the intended target, but that article does not exist. By linking to the disambiguation page, people will see that there are other James Rankins and that one of the Rankins in the list is an actor. Make sense? dogman15 (talk) 23:49, 21 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

<br />[edit]

This may be slightly highlevel and not exactly perfect explaination, but the BR without a / is an older form from the HTML standard. The version with a / is known as a "self closing" tag, and is the current XHTML 1.0 form. Wiki can handle the older form, but it's actually (in some places) translating it to the / form behind the scenes, as wiki serves documents with the XHTML 1.0 Transitional specifications. No direct harm using the old form, but the correct form is good practice. ferret (talk) 04:08, 29 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Mysterious FIM voices (and "The Last Roundup")[edit]

I believe you can solve the long unsolved mystery of who did who by asking crew members directly. I'm sure our dedicated reporter can handle this job very well. (Sorted by top importance)

  1. Mr. Carrot Cake
  2. We know Ms. Libman and Ms. Germain did Pound and Pumpkin Cake, but actually don't know exactly who played who.
  3. Spot of the Diamond Dogs
  4. The voice of the "Muffin" line as happened in this clip
  5. Every appearance of the fan-named "Bon Bon" (Her voice is different by episode, you know.)

And, do you know how to get the official public answer from Hasbro about the edition of "The Last Roundup" concerning "Derpy Hooves"? (as well as the new voice of "Derpy".) JSH-alive talkcontmail 18:22, 25 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry... do I know you? I don't think I've ever conversed with you before. Yes, I watch MLPFiM, but I don't know why you're coming to me with this. dogman15 (talk) 01:54, 26 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Excuse me, then. I mean, I was amazed at your skill. You met the crew members on the internet to get the facts. With this, I believe you can confirm who really did Mr. Carrot Cake's voice, at least. (I'm not even sure whether it really is Brian Drummond or not.)
I've only talked with a few, and they don't always respond to my questions about voice actors (the ones who would know, at least). What I (and others) do is make my best guess as to who a voice could be using reasonable "small windows" of possibilities, and make an educated guess, but I always try to confirm when I can. For a while we thought Tabitha St. Germain did Zecora's voice, and that's how it was on IMDb and mlp.wikia.com/wiki/Zecora. But then Andrea Libman said it was Brenda C. on her Twitter, and so we went through and changed that all with citations. It's not huge deal. dogman15 (talk) 18:46, 26 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry[edit]

I didn't catch that addition when I added the viewership #s on Canterlot Wedding, but it was perhaps because I was looking for the actual numbers. Sorry about that. --MASEM (t) 02:19, 25 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Featured songs (MLP:FiM[edit]

I noticed you removed my additions on the canterlot wedding songs on the MLP episode list, and left this comment: "(Listing featured songs here would be nice, but they were all already removed a few weeks ago. Plus, the reprise of BBBFF is in ep. 25, not 26. Either list them all or list none.)."

I'd like to get some clarification on that comment. Would you like me to add all the songs (and fix the placing on BBBFF) or just leave them alone?

Thanks! --Dr. Doctor 18:04, 29 May 2012 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by DrDoctor13 (talkcontribs)

Go ahead and add back in all the songs, and then I'll make any necessary revisions to make them accurate. I've talked with Daniel Ingram and Steffan Andrews a bit, so I know a thing or two about the song credits. dogman15 (talk) 20:12, 29 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

New uploads[edit]

Hi Dogman15, I have a little request if you have time to do. It is about soundtrack and score covers that you have uploaded on Rio film article. Now, could you upload better versions of those covers. Soundtrack cover should be much better than existing one, not necessarily larger, but better, and score cover shouldn't have that gray border around it. You noted that you used Paint for editing, I recommend you to use ACDSee, which is much much better than Paint.

I found these online for you to upload if you don't want to waste time on editing: [2] and [3]. Also you should put this template on top of every page:

I would do all that by myself, but I no longer work with soundtrack/score covers. Thank you in advance.  InfamousPrince  17:57, 3 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You "no longer work with soundtrack/score covers"? What kind of nonsense is that? You can work on anything on Wikipedia! And Paint is a perfectly fine program to use for simple image editing! Sure, it has its limitations, but it gets done what I want it to do. I'll make your little edits, nonetheless. dogman15 (talk) 02:27, 4 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Whoa, easy bad boy, I asked you to do my "little" edits, as far as I know, I didn't forced you to do anything. And yes, "anything" can be edited on Wikipedia, but I had a lot of problems with soundtrack/score covers, to prevent other editors/administrators to remove them from article or delete them, so I decide to quit working with them (because they are not worth all the trouble), and work only with film posters, DVD covers etc. I'm sorry for "all" the trouble a caused you, it won't happed again.  InfamousPrince  09:15, 4 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
It wasn't any trouble, and I'm sorry if I offended you, but I just thought it was a little bit weird of a request. That's all. /) dogman15 (talk) 15:52, 4 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
