Talk:The Voice UK/GA1
A Good Article Review of The Voice UK has started and been put on hold for an initial seven days.  SilkTork   ✔Tea time  15:26, 5 May 2012 (UTC)


 * There are only two days left of the hold and no work has been done. No worries if you are too busy right now - that happens! I can close the GAN and you can nominate later, using my comments as a guideline for working on the article.  SilkTork   ✔Tea time  13:16, 10 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Yes, Please do that. — M.Mario  (T/C) 15:09, 10 May 2012 (UTC)

List of Doctors characters
Hi there. I have seen your change to the cast lists for Doctors. Just wondered if this is used elsewhere, as it appears very confusing? Thanks. Adamiow (talk) 11:13, 29 May 2012 (UTC)
 * I agree with Adamiow that the table was confusing. I've changed it back for now, so perhaps a discussion on the talk page can take place about changing/improving it. Also, it's nice to see you back Mario. :) - JuneGloom    Talk  22:08, 29 May 2012 (UTC)

WikiCup 2012 May newsletter
We're halfway through round 3 (or the quarter finals, if you prefer) and things are running smoothly. We're seeing very high scoring; as of the time of writing, the top 16 all have over 90 points. This has already proved to be more competative than this time last year- in 2011, 76 points secured a place, while in 2010, a massive 250 was the lowest qualifying score. People have also upped their game slightly from last round, which is to be expected as we approach the end of the competition. Leading Pool A is, whose points have mostly come from a large number of did you knows on marine biology. Pool B's leader,, is for the first time not our highest scorer at the time of newsletter publication, but his good articles on The X-Files and Millenium keep him in second place overall. leads Pool C, our quietest pool, with content in a variety of areas on a variety of topics. Pool D is led by, our current overall leader. Nearly half of Casliber's points come from his triple-scored Western Jackdaw, which is now a featured article.

This round has seen an unusually high number of featured lists, with nearly one in five remaining participants claiming one, and one user,, claiming two. Miyagawa's featured list, 1936 Summer Olympics medal table, was even awarded double points. By comparison, good article reviews seem to be playing a smaller part, and featured topics portals remain two content-types still unutilised in this competition. Other than that, there isn't much to say! Things are coming along smoothly. As ever, if you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on WikiCup/Reviews. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck! If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

Wass up?
Hey long time no speak how are you? Best, Jona yo!  Selena 4 ever  19:24, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Im great! I suttely edited that article, ahaha! Yeah; you? How's the GA's coming along? — M.Mario  (T/C) 19:33, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Well the ironic thing was I didn't ping you because you fixed something on that article lolz. I wanted to see if you were still editing and come to find out you recently edited Always Mine which was a shock to me. I had thought I was looking at my edits which then got me pissed but then found out you are still here so yay!!! lolz Thanks for your edits anyways..I am now at 13 GAs with 6 GANs so that brings me with 19. How about you? Best, Jona yo!  Selena 4 ever  19:36, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Wow! I missed a lot! I should probably review a few of yours, to get back in the flow of everything. ATM, im coming a going. Oh, although I havent been back for a while, I have just revamped Body of Proof articles, with today recently creating one, (Talking Heads (Body of Proof)) and its on DYK. Im guessing the GAN process has been fine now, since after (was it a year ago), the little mishap at the GAN page. I look at the articles now. — M.Mario  (T/C) 19:42, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Well I haven't been active too much either just too much stress in RL and I haven't been feeling like expanding articles like I used to anymore. IDK maybe because of the current drive has gotten me the boost I needed but I'm just taking it slow for now. BTW whats up with the change username? Best, Jona yo!  Selena 4 ever  21:13, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Actually, that is the same way I have felt. I changed my name as "Mayhem" suggested I was trouble, as pointed out by my good friends at FAC, so I changed it. If you ever need any help, you know where my talk page is! — M.Mario  (T/C) 15:22, 22 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Hmm well I guess but there are others who have worse usernames but I won't get into that lolz... thanks buddy! :D BTW a GAN drive is currently going on if you are thinking about reviewing articles. Best, Jona yo!  Selena 4 ever  03:51, 24 June 2012 (UTC)

hey
Hey. Just wanted to get your view on whether it's time to move Diane and Ricky to past, and Tiffany and Morgan to returning; not credited to appear in any of the episodes we have information for which is Friday 6 July. Arsenalfan24 (talk) 22:06, 29 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Well, if the characters are not credited to appear in any more episodes then yes I believe. However I did not watch EE tonight, did it show them leaving, if so yes. — M.Mario  (T/C) 22:11, 29 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Not exactly, and news sources they are to appear for a 'few' weeks, 2 weeks they've been on-screen almost. Not sure though.Arsenalfan24 (talk) 22:13, 29 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Yes, I would say that they have departed. So, if you would do the honours. (Ricky and Diane to past; Tiffany and Morgan to returning). — M.Mario  (T/C) 22:16, 29 June 2012 (UTC)

Soap Articles
Hey Mario. Just touching base but why do you think it's acceptable to unlink fictional character without any source of discussion. These wiki-links have been instated since 2007ish and now you decide to unlink them all. You have done things before without discussion, like the removal of storylines from the lead. You've done the unlink to both EastEnders and Hollyoaks articles and you should not take it upon yourself to unlink these essential words to a soap opera character article. George Ping!  09:27, 30 June 2012 (UTC)
 * 'Fictional character' and 'soap opera' are common terms which do not need to be linked. This was told to me by a experienced WP:FAC reviewer, as well at WP:GAN too. — M.Mario  (T/C) 15:07, 30 June 2012 (UTC)
 * That's one person's opinion Mario. If you are making project wide changes, you should try to discuss them first or else you will annoy people, as seems to have happened here. For what it's worth, my opinion is that yes fictional character is a common term, but soap opera less so, because different nationalities have different names for continuing dramas.  GunGagdin Moan 15:56, 30 June 2012 (UTC)
 * So Mario, you thought you would just bypass what the little people might say. Without an actual discussion on the topic it was always going to be brought up. Rain  the 1  17:01, 30 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Thank you Gungadin, I will put this towards WP:EE or WP:SOAPS? I think I agree with you about the soap opera term actually, so I think I will support what you said when the discussion is made in the future. — M.Mario  (T/C) 18:37, 30 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Oh and Rain, I missed your point. Did I ever use the term "little people"? Most likely actaully you probably have more edits and created more successful articles than them, so actaully, they are probably the "little people". :) —  M.Mario  (T/C) 18:39, 30 June 2012 (UTC)

Images
Hi, one of the images you nominated has just been deleted, which is a shame. However, if I added Reception specifically talking about that scene, could I? This image for example, does the same thing File:Wishin' and Hopin' - Grey's Anatomy.jpg. — M.Mario  (T/C) 16:39, 3 July 2012 (UTC)
 * That image you've picked there is a poor example. It is a nondescript screenshot that is clearly decorative and adds little to reader's understanding. If you have an image that is not talked about by reliable sources directly (that is the thing as depicted is talked about, not the scene around it or things vaguely associated with the thing depicted) then you are often treading on shaky ground. These shots of some cast members, sitting, talking, walking, standing or doing other normal things don't usually tell the reader anything significant. If someone acted well sources will say this, but this does not mean that you need a still photo of them to back it up. If a source talks at length about a character's makeup/costume or some set design or other visual thing, you may find in the course of writing the article that you cannot make part of the subject matter adequately comprehensible without illustration. I think that if you don't reach this point&mdash;where the image is required as text alone is inadequate to convey what the reliable sources are saying&mdash;then a non-free image should be considered. - Peripitus (Talk) 12:52, 4 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Thank you very much for that, it was much clearer that what other users have said! You know the user who uploaded that image I used as an example, I would look at the rest of his uploads, they all have the same rationale, and seem a bit dogdy. — M.Mario  (T/C) 21:21, 4 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Hi again! Im currently reviewing a few articles at GA, and I was wondering whether the images on them are intact or not.


 * File:SGMWH Merger.jpg - Its not even a significant plot picture.
 * File:Good Mourning Grey's Anatomy.jpg - Not one of mine, but looks bad.
 * File:I Like You So Much Better When You're Naked.jpg
 * File:Great Expectations - Grey's Anatomy 3x13.jpg
 * File:Time Has Come Today - Grey's Anatomy.jpg

- I hate to report photos- its just I dont want to pass an article- but then recieve backlash. Thank you very much. — M.Mario  (T/C) 19:14, 5 July 2012 (UTC)
 * While it's part of the good article criteria that non-free images have appropriate copyright statements and non-free rationales, I think there is merit in not muddying the water by tying non-free image rationale evaluations with good article evaluation. The images have copyright notices and rationales for use. That the rationales may be poor is something I think to debate elsewhere - Peripitus (Talk) 10:23, 6 July 2012 (UTC)

Callie Torres
Hi, M.Mario. I've undone your change to the infobox picture caption, because it is more descriptive as it was. It is also a standard on all Grey's Anatomy character pages. Anyways, thanks for the review! TRLIJC19  (  talk  ) 23:22, 4 July 2012 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Rebecca Harper.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Rebecca Harper.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails the first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the media description page and edit it to add, 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 this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. mabdul 00:26, 5 July 2012 (UTC)

Hello! I was wondering whether you could finish the GA review you've already started for Wishin' and Hopin' (Grey's Anatomy). Please see Talk:Wishin' and Hopin' (Grey's Anatomy). Jonathan Harold Koszeghi (talk) 20:22, 6 July 2012 (UTC)

Wishin' and Hopin' (Grey's Anatomy)
I have already renominated it, and I have addressed all the issues. I respect your choice to fail the article, but I was wondering why did you do it so quickly? Jonathan Harold Koszeghi (talk) 10:49, 7 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Because you uploaded another image! I had no choice but to, as I had earlier stated that the rationale needs to be strong to get to GA status, and is was not, again. I think also having fresh eyes on the article will be better. Just dont upload any more images for the article! And, most likely, if you get a good reviewer, it will pass. —  M.Mario  (T/C) 10:52, 7 July 2012 (UTC)

Stefan2 (talk) 19:34, 8 July 2012 (UTC) If one of my images I have uploaded has a strong rationale and helps the reader understand the article better, but has been nominated for deletion, what can I do? File:Society Hill (Body of Proof).jpg was nominated, however the nominator has been rather rude towards me, and has not allowed me to get my point across,. I tried to explain to him, and although I may have made mistakes, I feel the image fits the criteria. If your free, can you put your point across? — M.Mario  (T/C) 15:33, 13 July 2012 (UTC)
 * From Peripitus's talkpage
 * M.Mario, you seem to have a few misteps here. You tried to dispute the deletion discussion by removing the deletion link and discussion then, when this was rightly reverted, you edited some else's post. These are by no-nos in deletion discussions. You can't dispute a nomination by summarily closing it and it is very very bad form to edit another's post (re: your striking out of the link to NFCC#8). You disagree with the nomination - all you can, and should, do is make your point about how you think the image does meet the criteria&mdash;which you've done&mdash;then leave it for someone to assess argument strength and close the debate. - Peripitus (Talk) 22:50, 13 July 2012 (UTC)

FAC
Please IMDb external link on Poppy Meadow. An external link is not a reference! TBrandley 16:12, 15 July 2012 (UTC)
 * I agree with the others editers point. Although IMDb is not being used as a reference but an external link, I still see no point on having it, brings no extra detail to the article. — M.Mario  (T/C) 17:14, 15 July 2012 (UTC)


 * External links ought to be to reasonably reliable sources, which IMDb cannot seriously be claimed to be. In fact I've seen a move to purge all references to IMDb from Wikipedia. But what I really came to say M.Mario is that the FAC delegates don't like nominators using the done not done templates as it screws up the archiving, so it's only a matter of time before one of them spots it and complains.

Letting Go (Body of Proof)
Hi: The wrong hook was used when this article was promoted to the Did You Know prep area, so I switched it to the ALT1 that the reviewer had passed - but it's been mentioned at Wikipedia talk:Did you know as being boring. Can you think of another possible hook? The only one I could come up with is the fact the murder was filmed in Fairmount Park, but you don't give a source for that and I couldn't find it in the references I examined. Got a source for that, or any other ideas? Yngvadottir (talk) 20:53, 19 July 2012 (UTC)

Dana Delaney
Unfortunately, correcting perspective in human photographs is incredibly difficult. Small distortions that you wouldn't notice in a landscape or a building are really noticeable in humans - especially with a subject like Ms. Delaney whose conventional beauty is partly a product of a very symmetrical face.

That said, I'll be glad to crop the image or do something similar. I would likely upload such as a new image, as the current image is used in dozens on articles in multiple languages. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 18:49, 26 July 2012 (UTC)

Hi
Hi! Thanks for your comments at my Editor Review page. Also, if "Say Hello to My Little Friend" gets a copy-edit, do you think it would be ready for FAC? Thanks again! TBrandley 19:26, 26 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Yes, any article can get to FAC if it's good enough! Do you mind if I start having a look, correcting things, etc? I think Twitter isnt a reliable source, but I will look into it. — M.Mario  (T/C) 19:30, 26 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Of course! I would really appreciate if you could look! Thank you so much! TBrandley 19:36, 26 July 2012 (UTC)
 * No problem, whilst were talking, did me and my co-nominator complete all your points on Poppy Meadow's FAC nomination? I think we did them all, if so could you put Support at the bottom of the page in bold, saying why you think it should be a FA? — M.Mario  (T/C) 19:40, 26 July 2012 (UTC)
 * I think most have been addressed. But, one issues, you wrote you didn't fix because it isn't a RS, but per WP:IMDB IMDb should be in "External links", as that section isn't for references. Thanks! TBrandley 19:45, 26 July 2012 (UTC)
 * I am currently questioning the Twitter source. It is by the official Twitter page. WP:ELPEREN says it can be used sometimes. Not really sure. TBrandley 19:47, 26 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Im going to regretfully say no to this, as, as a project (WP:EE) we decided IMDb links were pointless, and gave no extra information to the article, so we decided we were never going to have them. Its different for every projects. — M.Mario  (T/C) 19:49, 26 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Yes but, WP:ELPEREN is for External links, and your using it for a reference. — M.Mario  (T/C) 19:50, 26 July 2012 (UTC)
 * That's okay; if you don't want IMDb that is fine. I go through you fixes on your FAC page. For the Twitter, it also says below if it can be used as a source directly below. TBrandley 19:53, 26 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Here's a good link to look at: WP:TWITTER. — M.Mario  (T/C) 19:55, 26 July 2012 (UTC)

 * Actually, instead of me editing the article, why dont you nominate this article for a PR Review? I think that would be best. — M.Mario  (T/C) 20:31, 26 July 2012 (UTC)
 * I would, but first I getting a copy-edit, as I already have a PR currently. Rules say you can have 1 at a time. TBrandley 20:34, 26 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Okay, yes! Hang back on it for a while, and try to get the PR youve got on hold at the moment finished. Also, Dr. Banks was deleted right? Why not redirect it? — M.Mario  (T/C) 20:36, 26 July 2012 (UTC)
 * I plan on creating List of Awake characters soon, which I'll redirect to. TBrandley 20:39, 26 July 2012 (UTC)

List of Eastenders present and future characters
Hi M.Mario The reason why I deleted some characters on Eastenders because some of these people are not related to he List of Eastenders present and future characters article. Like for Example (Michael; Michael Leader), (Harry Black; Harry Holland) & (Glen James; Glen Copper) those characters are not related to Eastenders if you click the link where it says the names of people it will tell you what they are and what it Means.

From User:Quinser's 21:13 29/07/2012
 * Ah, I just commented at the administrators page you posted at. These characters do not have an article/list entry, so that it why you will not find them in Michael, Harry Black and Glen Cooper. — M.Mario  (T/C) 20:24, 29 July 2012 (UTC)

WikiCup 2012 July newsletter
We're approaching the beginning of 2012's final round. Pool A sees as the leader, with 300 points being awarded for the featured article Bivalvia, and Pool B sees  in the lead, with 10 good articles, and over 35 articles eligible for good topic points. Pool A sees in second place with a number of articles relating to baseball, while Pool B's  follows Grapple X, with a variety of contributions including the high-scoring, high-importance featured article on the 2010 film Pride & Prejudice. Ruby2010, like Grapple X, also claimed a number of good topic points; despite this, not a single point has been claimed for featured topics in the contest so far. The same is true for featured portals.

Currently, the eighth-place competitor (and so the lowest scorer who would reach the final round right now) has scored 332, more than double the 150 needed to reach the final round last year. In 2010, however, 430 was the lowest qualifying score. In this competition, we have generally seen scores closer to those in 2010 than those in 2011. Let's see what kind of benchmark we can set for future competitions! As ever, if you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on WikiCup/Reviews. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck! If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

Main page appearance: Poppy Meadow
This is a note to let the main editors of Poppy Meadow know that the article will be appearing as today's featured article on August 1, 2012. You can view the TFA blurb at Today's featured article/August 1, 2012. If you prefer that the article appear as TFA on a different date, or not at all, please ask featured article director or his delegate, or start a discussion at Wikipedia talk:Today's featured article/requests. If the previous blurb needs tweaking, you might change it—following the instructions at Today's featured article/requests/instructions. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page. The blurb as it stands now is below:

Poppy Meadow is a fictional character from the BBC soap opera EastEnders, played by Rachel Bright. She was introduced by executive producer Bryan Kirkwood on 11 January 2011 as the best friend of established character Jodie Gold (Kylie Babbington) in scenes filling in for those cut from a controversial baby-swap storyline. Poppy returned to the series in June 2011 as a supporting character and comedy element, in a move that was generally welcomed by the tabloid press; her storylines focused on her friendship with Jodie and their intertwined love lives. Both Jodie and Poppy left the series on 14 November 2011, but the possibility was left open for Poppy to return in the future. In June 2012 Bright reprised her role as Poppy, quickly moving into Walford and resuming her employment at the local beauty salon. Poppy was introduced into the series in what critics described as "bizarre and utterly irrelevant" and "pointless" scenes, which substituted for cut scenes of the dead baby's parents at the graveside. Guardian critic Stuart Heritage considered Poppy to be "perhaps the greatest television bit-part character of the modern age" and several Daily Mirror writers gave Poppy positive reviews upon both of her returns.

That's really quite something; you get an FA and a few days later a main page appearance. You must have friends in high places. :-) Malleus Fatuorum 05:19, 1 August 2012 (UTC)

Body of Proof GA reviews
I have finished GA-reviewing several of your Body of Proof articles. There are a few issues in each that need to be addressed before they can be promoted, however. Cheers-- Gen. Quon   (Talk)   23:26, 2 August 2012 (UTC)

EE Free images file changes
Why did some of the pictures need cropping? Some just needed the watermark removing. Some actors look brighter than they do in real life now. I think Ricky Norwood's picture has been totally ruined. Did you ask anyone at WP:EE for their thoughts? Rain  the 1  01:26, 7 August 2012 (UTC)

First of all, we would like to welcome three new members to the project: M.Mario, Tvlover96, and Mattom123; we look forward to collaborating with them. We have several new achievements and updates to be announced! List of Grey's Anatomy episodes, developed by TRLIJC19 and Jonathan Harold Koszeghi, is now a featured list candidate! If promoted, it will be our first piece of "in-house" featured content! Feel free to leave comments or voice your opinions here. Grey's Anatomy, Grey's Anatomy (season 3), and "Give Peace a Chance" are in the preparations for FAC. An administrative board has been added to the project, to make sure the internal processes run smoothly. Any member has the chance to join, and further information is given at the project page. Currently, however, all the positions are filled, so if you are interested, please contact the coordinator and you will be placed on a waiting list. There are many things to be done for the project, in an attempt to exemplify its best work. Below is a list of tasks, and guidelines:

Weekly Initiative! The weekly initiative this week, an extent of last week's, is to develop a Grey's Anatomy-related stub or start-class article, using the relevant guidelines above! Model your article off of a Grey's Anatomy page with GA status. Use your Wikipedia skills to fix MOS inconsistencies, copyedit, add more information by researching, and remove unreferenced claims! Barnstars will be awarded to users who destub/de-start their articles, and get the quality level promoted to at least 'C' class! You can determine if an article meets the 'C' class criteria by asking a member of the project's administrative board to review the article. Please do not change the article's quality rating yourself; you must have it reviewed by a member of the committee. A list of stub and start class Grey's Anatomy articles can be found at the project's main page. Take part in this initiative, have fun destubbing/starting articles, feel proud after the article you cleaned up looks better, and be rewarded with barnstars! Help make a difference and get started! Furthermore, if you notice that any user has participated in any weekly initiative and was not rewarded, give them a barnstar ASAP!

Have fun, and don't forget to cite everything you write! We hope to see several expanded articles soon! --The community of WikiProject Grey's Anatomy (Written by project coordinator TRLIJC19)

List of Grey's Anatomy cast members, developed by TRLIJC19, recently entered the process of featured list candidacy—we urge you to review the list here. Grey's Anatomy, developed by TRLIJC19, and Grey's Anatomy (season 3), developed by Jonathan Harold Koszeghi, are still in the preparations for featured article candidacy. There are many things to be done for the project, in an attempt to exemplify its best work. Below is a list of tasks, and guidelines:

Weekly Initiative! The weekly initiative this week is to search the internet, and find season 6 reviews to add to Grey's Anatomy. Search through google archives, and news websites, to find reviews that talk about season 6 in entirety. Please make sure the reviews you find come from a highly reliable source such as a major news site, or a well-known magazine. If you find some reviews, please post them on the talk page of Grey's Anatomy, where they will be evaluated for quality. If you find a suitable review, that fits the criteria we are looking for, you will be awarded a barnstar! Take part in this initiative, have fun searching for reviews, feel proud after the review you find is added to the main article, and be rewarded with barnstars! Help make a difference and get started! Furthermore, if you notice that any user has participated in any weekly initiative and was not rewarded, give them a barnstar ASAP!
