I've passed you on criterion 3, you should be wary of failing to get promotion through lack of interest! It may be worth poking other reviewers to look at this article, and to make comments Fasach Nua (talk) 21:10, 3 January 2011 (UTC)

 * I have been watching the discussion on Davenport becoming a FA article and I have a few suggestions that I am expressing directly to you instead of on that page. I thought about making these changes myself but since I am fairly new at editing I will only suggest the changes. You may want to update the Dashboard as it is still displaying an old version of the article. The current one still has the flag and seal. Although it is not mandatory you may want to look at WikiProject Cities/US Guideline for rewording and/or restructuring the headings to conform. Some of the sentences are long in length and may need to be broken up. The article has a good pictures but may be slightly right side location heavy. You may want to add the template As of in places where you state so and so holds the office of ... or anything that can be dated. I realize you update the article regularly but other editors may not be aware of that. On another subject you may be interested in [this link]. Good luck on the Davenport getting FA status. -- Rife Ideas   Talk  23:25, 4 January 2011 (UTC)
 * LOL, let's get that new flag going!...please, feel free to fix any changes, I will implement your suggestions after dinner. Do you know how to update the dashboard? This is the first time I ever clicked on the link. C T J F 8 3  chat 00:01, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Know how to update the Dashboard? I'm the newbie here! I bookmarked all the tools used in that toolbox for future use because I have not been able to find any list of toolserver tools. I tried without success to find a tool that will tell you the average size in bytes of an editors edits, not number of edits. If you know of one let me know. Just to clarify I believe in the right of people in general to express their personal preference in partners. The facts are that statistically 10% of the world's population prefer to be with their own sex. However I am in the 90% category. -- Rife Ideas   Talk  00:30, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
 * LOL...I'm not aware of a tool that tells bytes of edits, I'll have to look into the dashboard....got sidetracked checking out the Sprint EVO 4G, so working on dinner and your suggestions :) C T J F 8 3  chat 01:16, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Do you have specifics of overly long sentences? Grammar is not my strong point...or, even better, you can help me fix them! :) C T J F 8 3  chat 01:55, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

Rating NRHP articles
Hi, CTJF83 (nice banner up there btw), I noticed that you added some project tags to a few articles written at the end of December 2010 by User:Farragutful. Examples include Edward C. Roberts House, Renwick House, Benjamin Nighswander House, and a few others that popped up in the NRHP new article result bot list. It's good that you are adding article tags to articles like these so we can keep track of just how many NRHP articles there are out there, but I don't really agree with your rating. You rated all of these articles start quality, when they should really be stub. Any article with only 2-3 sentences of content is by definition a stub. Start quality articles have more information than stubs but are still not good enough to warrant C or B class ratings. An example by the same author (which I was surprised you didn't assess) is First Presbyterian Church of Marion, Iowa. First Presbyterian Church (Muscatine, Iowa) is kind of on the border between stub and start (and you can see I assessed it stub-class). I would rate anything smaller than the FPC Muscatine article a stub and anything longer a start. I was just letting you know in case you weren't familiar with the assessment scale. I don't mean to attack or demean you in any way; this is meant solely as advice. Like I said, it's good to add project tags to these articles, but be careful when you're rating them, or the articles may not be focused on like they should be if they're already rated higher. Quality-driven editors are more likely to upgrade a stub-class article than a start-one, so it's better to rate these short two-sentence articles as stub. Thanks for helping out!--Dudemanfellabra (talk) 21:28, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm mostly only concerned with articles listed at NRHP Scott County, Iowa, so that's why I didn't rate the other ones. If you had asked me what I would rate the two you listed, I would have bumped each up a notch. to C and Start class. I guess there is a fine line between Stub, Start, and perhaps C.

Semi-protected
I semi-protected your talk page for three days due to the recent spate of vandalism from multiple accounts, apparently sockpuppets of each other. Confirmed users can still talk to you but new accounts and anonymous users will be blocked. If you'd prefer it to be unprotected, please let me know and I'll lift it again. —David Eppstein (talk) 20:07, 9 January 2011 (UTC)

Note
I just happoened to pop in after all the vandalism by sockpuppets; sorry you had to go through that mate. My userpage was vandalized before as well when someone disagreed with something I said; I was online at the time and got the new message alert, but I didn't know it was vandalism until I checked the history after seeing nothing new; I then noticed it got reverted before I even got to the page. The guy kept trying to vandalize elsewhere as well as more attempts at my talk page, but the IP was eventually blocked. =D

That aside, on to why I'm posting. If it's not already completed (doing it as a courtesy if I can figure out which page it is), I'm recommending an edit to the header of your talk page. You say, "I WON'T be silenced now mater how much you harass me!!" - I believe you meant to say "no matter" and am fixing that. If I am in fact mistaken, go ahead and change it back, but it doesn't make sense how it is as I type. =) CycloneGU (talk) 01:10, 11 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Found it. Fixed now.  CycloneGU (talk) 01:11, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
 * LOL, opps...I'm not the best at spelling/grammar. Thanks for the fix! Ya, I guess vandalism on here and harassment in general is a part of life... I don't let it bother me at all. Thanks again! :) C T J F 8 3  chat 01:15, 11 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Harassment in general - no kidding. I was always the loner in school, no one wanted to involve me in anything.  I started going to a different school in fourth grade and never really did fit in, and was always the one found walking around alone; I came to hate recess and didn't even want to go outside.  In high school, there were specific bullies who always wanted to make sure I knew what they thought of me; one even referred to me as being in a "gay bubble" (I am not gay BTW, bullies would try to convince me otherwise).  By the time I finished high school, I had no real friends moving on in my life and even today still have very few true friends.  I know some good people online, but in my life, I have one real friend and am a single loner who is trying to be friendly with people, but that has its own challenges when people don't want to be friendly back.
 * As for spelling and grammar, in general, both were always strong points for me. *LOL* CycloneGU (talk) 01:23, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I hear ya there...I switched schools in 7th grade, and that's when my not fitting in started. I can relate to all the other stuff you said too, and that was even when I was "straight" (LOL). I only have a few friends too (hence why I have no life and am on Wikipedia way too much!). I always figure people like us end up stronger in the end! C T J F 8 3  chat 01:27, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

Davenport, Iowa
I'm sorry, I didn't see your request a couple of weeks ago. This may be too late for whatever you were doing but I looked over the article anyway, which I like overall, and found the following:

Introductory Section:

“and Palmer College of Chiropractic, which is where the first chiropractic adjustment took place.” Actually, it took place in a building downtown that no longer exists. The college opened later.

“two major United States Highways”, should be three US highways (You list all three later on.)

Bix Beiderbecke is linked every time his name is mentioned, not only here but throughout the article.

History: I always thought LeClaire’s wife received land that is now Moline and LeClaire himself received the land on the Iowa side of the river.

Landmarks: The Freight House, I believe, is no longer an entertainment complex.

Events and Festivals: In reference to the Bix Fest: “2009 was the 39th consecutive festival.” This seems unimportant, especially because the 40th was held in 2010.

Sports and recreation: Wharton Field House is in Moline. The place at Marycrest was called “Above the Baseline” at one time. I have no idea if it’s still open. Regardless the River Hawks no longer play there, if they even exist anyomre.

Media: I would add: KGCW (The CW), their studio is in Davenport;  WBQD  My Network TV, they're registered as being located in Davenport, even though I don’t think anything is; KQIN (PBS) Davenport, WQPT (PBS), Moline. I don’t hope to understand KQIN, but it’s listed as being in Davenport. Government: Now that the Iowa legislature is in session this section needs to be updated and the former members should be removed and the new members listed as such.

Education: Add Eastern Iowa Community College District, which is headquartered in Davenport and includes the Kahl Education Center.

Transportation: “The Quad City International Airport across the river in Moline, Illinois, is the closest commercial airport.” While accurate this wording makes it sound like it’s some distance away.

Okay, a couple of these might be a little picky, or off the mark, so you can do as you wish. Again, I apologize for not paying closer attention. Farragutful (talk) 23:18, 12 January 2011 (UTC)

Hi,

I double checked that and I can even though the material comes from a wiki which is similar to Wikipedia, the page states (at the bottom) "© 2011 Last.fm Ltd. All rights reserved." Even if last.fm it were free, the material seems to have been copied there as well, from http://rockislandcrew.com/32oz.html so I reinstated the tag. Travelbird (talk) 06:07, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

Stalker on Mel Odom (artist) talk page
Can you help us? Mary Cross doesnt like any edits that involve fashion doll called Mdvanii who has been an obvious inspiration for Mel Odom (artist) and Gene Marshall. He/she is also reverting any edits and doing unwanted edits regarding this issue on pages Mel Odom (artist), Gene Marshall and Mdvanii. After he/she was banned from reverting the edits she started endless chat on Mel Odom (artist) talk page clinging on to the 1990 NYT articles obvious mistake which has nothing to contribute to Mel Odom's notability. We have brought out all the evidence but the user is ignoring it all. Muotinukke (talk) 18:56, 4 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry...how exactly would you like me to assist you? Trying to get Mary Cross to stop? Weigh in on the conversation? Other? C T J F 8 3  chat 18:59, 4 January 2011 (UTC)

Please stop Mary Cross...he/she is obviously sabotaging the articles, trying to insist on a clear mistake made by the NYTs which has long been dealt with and the reality (Lala designed and crrated all Mdvanii makeups since the beginning) confirmed endlessly over the 22 years of Mdvaniis existance. It is clearly noted in museum catalogues (for which we have put the most recent), many articles including L'Hebdo which is like the Time magazine of Switzerland and there has never ever been mention of it in any official press releases, catalogues etc....the artists BB* & Lsala ALWAYS repeat over and over any artists involvements, such as Gruau, Alexandre de Paris, Cylde Smith etc....Odom was mentioned once and only once, by error in the NYTs in 1990 more than a year after Mdvanii was launched....all of her original catalogues, all the FAO Schwarz and Liberty of London catalogues and press releases plus the big show in Canada Grand Tra La la, none of them mention him, even the third party opinion agreed.....MAry Cross is just sabotaging the advancement of the articles.....and trying to turn a factoid (as inthe Norman Mailer definition) into history.....it was an error and recognized as such,...even by Odom himself as he said he was disappointed the make up was never used ..... Please stop or block Mary Cross or do whatever is appropriate please. Thank you. Alec jiri (talk) 19:44, 4 January 2011 (UTC)


 * I suspect he is doing it only for the purpose of stalking or challenging anything related to Mdvanii on these pages. And the endless discussion on the Mel Odom page over the tiny detail ,suprisingly, involves Mdvanii. He doesnt seem to care about Odom. I would welcome any administrative input from you to stop him/her doing all this. If you can weight in conversation, I welcome that too.. many thanks!! Muotinukke (talk) 19:51, 4 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Well I'm not an admin, so I can't block the user. The best I can do for you (you can also do it) is warn the user for their disruption. Either a vandalism warning, or a 3RR warning, as the situation deems necessary. I will watch the pages in question, and the user's edits, so that I may help in the warning process. Sorry I can't be of more help. C T J F 8 3  chat 20:25, 4 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Mary Cross seem to have backed off for now. We'll let you now if we stil need your help in this matter. Thank you again! Muotinukke (talk) 20:07, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
 * No problem! Ya, just let me know if you need assistance. C T J F 8 3  chat 20:08, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

HI........

I believe someone removed the MAIN aspect of what the Mdvanii artwork is albout ...

1)gay issues as a precedent in a doll/artwork

2) use of real haute couture....

THESE are two distinctively important points opf the article...to take them out removes the whole sense of what mdvanii is and was...the FIRST DOLL MADE AS AN ARTWORK WHO HAS A GAY ROLE MODEL LIFE WITHOUT PARODY OF GAY OR LGBT LIFESTYLES.....soory about caps,...they were on,....I am not shouting....

How can it be put back in?

.

this phrase is essential I think to express in brief the main aspect of what the work is about and known for in Paris, France. She was made in a matt Caron make-up toned hard resin and 25 centimeters tall. She was the first anatomically-correct fashion doll with an adult (non-parody) storyline including homosexual, lesbian and bisexual personality traits. She was presented with a wardrobe of high fashion clothes made in France with identical construction as human-scale clothes Shall I put it elsewhere?

ALSO, someone keeps taking out citations......and putting the abbreviated in for a b c dBold text etc but doing it incorrectly and making red citation error warnings...

It is for Isabelle Falconnier, which is cited about 6 times,...but when you add the citation link it does not make a b c d etc....it makes it appear several times, whom ever is trying to correct it is not checking and it is leaving big red error warnings.

Good answer
Nice answer to my question. Personally, I would have told "ANewCrusade" to take his complaint with the content to Talk:Gay pride (since to me this appears more like a poorly-executed content dispute). I will maintain my support for you, and, when you are an admin, remember to answer such an editor with a cool head as you answered my question this RfA. I still strongly dislike your userbox, but I am convinced enough that you will not abuse the tools. Good luck! Reaper Eternal (talk) 21:24, 15 January 2011 (UTC)

A thought . ..
I don't remember (nor does it matter) which oppose voter it was who stated you should avoid responding to every criticism, and instead let others reply for you, but you know what? I think that makes sense. It can be argued whether or not it makes you look less mature to respond to every point, but, on the other hand, I think it's above argument that you come across better when others defend you, instead of doing it yourself. It shows you have support (and clearly, you do). If someone asks you a direct question, fine, reply, but I would suggest allowing the majority who support you to do your work for you. HuskyHuskie (talk) 03:10, 16 January 2011 (UTC)
 * It makes sense like you said, if other's defend me. There are no guidelines on whether you are suppose to respond to every oppose or not. This implies I'm suppose to respond cause it is my RfA. I think I will stop on responding to all the opposes due to my userbox, and probably most of the rest. Thanks, C T J F 8 3  chat 03:14, 16 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Interesting post by Boing there. Well, I've pretty much got zero experience at RfA; my impression is that it's dominated by a bunch of failed candidates, but I could be wrong.  I didn't base my comment on experience, just on the fact that what that one person said made sense to me.  But I could easily be wrong. HuskyHuskie (talk) 04:12, 16 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I do thank you very much for all your rebuttals. C T J F 8 3  chat 13:06, 16 January 2011 (UTC)

At this point, I'm not sure if your RFA is going to pass (if it does it will be close). You've taken a lot of flack in it. It's unbelievable that the RFA process become a way for elitist users to gang up on editors and pick them apart. Some of the opposes are clearly based on rules those users made up - I mean, you can't respond to opposition. Um... Okay. But my point is, don't let any of this discourage you. You're still a great editor and I hope you don't let the elitists get to you. -- Scorpion 0422  18:10, 16 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Thank you. I'm hoping the closing bureaucrat will disregard some of the opposes. Otherwise I'll probably remove the userbox, and try again in a few months. C T J F 8 3  chat 21:29, 16 January 2011 (UTC)
 * My suggestion would be to seek counsel from those who opposed you in a civil manner, like some of the ones who criticized your actions at AFD, for example (not even all of those were civil, but some were). Merely removing the userbox and coming back later will give ammunition to those who oppose you, accusing you of being like a politician who will assume any position on the issues of the day, as long as said positions get him elected.  Read through the RFA carefully, and attempt to discern good faith criticism, and seek not to use it to get "elected", but to learn from it, and become a wiser Wikipedian. Good luck, my friend. HuskyHuskie (talk) 00:29, 17 January 2011 (UTC)
 * The Wikipedia "community" is an unnecessarily vicious beast. It's corrupt. We all get told we're wrong and worthless at some point, even sometimes by those that are very experienced here. But a member of the community you are, and a very, very, very valued one at that. Whatever happens following this RfA, hold your head up high, and know that there are many people here who recognise the terrific work you'd done to an exceptional standard.

 * Thank you both, I will remain positive and learn from the constructive criticism.  C T J F 8 3  chat 00:58, 17 January 2011 (UTC)
 * With regards the userbox, why not consider changing to as I suggested at your RfA. I believe it is unlikely to cause offense and does the job you want without being so confrontational. Regards, wjemather bigissue  10:18, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

Ctjf83, Just a quick moral support. I was reading through all the drama at your RfA, trying to decide if I should vote or not, when you withdrew, making my vote moot. I do agree that administrators should be as neutral as possible in administrative actions, and as such their userpage should not overly-advocate any political, religious or other positions. (I.E. it doesn't matter how destructive a vandal is that you block, if they are Catholic, and see a userbox that could be perceived as anti-Catholic on your userpage, in their eyes the reason you blocked them is your anti-Catholic bias in their mind) However, I was disgusted at how rude some of the oppose votes were on this subject. I kept thinking, ok the point has been made, as long as he agrees to remove the userbox if the RfA passes, who cares. As someone who survived a particular nasty RfA, I want do tell you to not give up. Yes, tone down the user page, go back though and do a copyvio check just to be sure, and don't let the wikimob get the best of you. Take a nice wikibreak and come back stronger than ever.

I'm sorry it turned out the way it did too. I think there was too much focus on style rather than substance, and looking past your user page, user boxes, etc shows the substance behind your nomination was solid - I think you would have made a fine admin. -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 22:46, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

 * Fudge! C T J F 8 3  chat 13:19, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

I just want to add my support for you here as well. I'm glad to read you're 'not going to give in to bullies'; you shouldn't have to deny who you are to become an administrator, nor should you try to. However, some people will always (as long as RFA works the way it does) oppose for stupid reasons, and there's not a lot you can do about them. My advice to you would be to try to ignore the insults, and focus on addressing the issues identified by the more civil opposes - they weren't all completely unfair. (I supported your RFA, but I do think some of the opposes raised legitimate points.) If you can gain a bit more experience and improve your editing in the relevant areas, I see no reason why you shouldn't be able to pass RFA in future, userbox or no userbox. Robofish (talk) 23:20, 17 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks, ya, I definitely agree a lot of the opposes were legitimate reasons. C T J F 8 3  chat 12:38, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

One more thing about your userboxes =-). The images in the Dr. Pepper userboxes used are dubious. I have flagged one as a copyright violation in Commons, as it is listed as a work of the US Government (yeah right). One is a self-taken picture by you. While I believe that you did take the picture, the picture includes a registered trademark which limits the way in which the image can be used. At a minimum, the trademark must be acknowledged. To see how others have done this, see File:Black and white Coke Zero.jpg. Dave (talk) 23:24, 17 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Sorry to see your RfA get mired down by the religious nuts. My advice: Read the more rational opposes and make an effort to address them, then reapply in a few months.  You might want to consider blanking your user page for the duration of your next RfA, with RfA being the drama magnet that it is.  Snotty Wong   verbalize 00:55, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Ya, or I have another idea on what I can do about the userpage.... :) C T J F 8 3  chat 12:38, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

Even though I sound like a parrot, it's really unfortunate this didn't go through. It really shocked me on particular opposes, although sometimes I have to agree that you can be a bit aggressive on certain actions (me too though :P ). I really hope you decide to try again in the future. (p.s. I'm a Christian and have never once been offended by anything on your User page). BOVINEBOY 2008 12:43, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

 * Thanks! C T J F 8 3  chat 20:56, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

I just want to go on the record as being totally mystified that you weren't easily confirmed as an admin. I'm still fairly new to weighing in on RfA's, but based on your contributions and activities, I thought confirming you would be a no brainer. I'm starting to get this sinking feeling that there will come a time, soon, when NOBODY can get confirmed as an admin. It seems like there's a growing cadre of wikifolk who focus primarily on RfA's as a hobby. My only advice for your next RfA is to get rid of the Iowa flag ;) --Quartermaster (talk) 17:09, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Ya, sometimes the people are too picky. As picky as they are I know many current admins that would never be reconfirmed....Well, I guess I better pick a cool state flag then! :) C T J F 8 3  chat 20:56, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

It's good to see that you recognize that some of the opposers had legitimate points. I think that if you attend to those points, the people who will (no matter what) oppose based on user boxes won't be enough to pull the !vote total into the negative zone next time. And the bureaucrats will know how to discount those !votes that were made for bad reasons. --Tryptofish (talk) 20:15, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks, C T J F 8 3  chat 20:56, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

Moving on . ..
Obviously, I'm sorry that things turned out as they did. And now, for some unsolicited advice.
 * Forget about your next RfA. I don't mean, "Don't ever jump in again", I mean, don't think about it.  Focusing on it and planning for it will simply give your enemies (yes you have some, it seems) reason to be suspicious of everything you do.  "Oh, he only pulled that down to get through his RfA" (kinda like how HRC changed her name in the 1980s from Rodham to Clinton to get him re-elected as governor); it just made a certain group of people less trusting of her).
 * Try to check yourself, not so much on your userpage, but whenever you engage others in discussion of a dispute. The littlest things can be misinterpreted.  For example, during your RfA, I made this post, then upon reading it, realized that my wording could unnecessarily inflame the attitude of the editor I was writing to, so I changed it to this.  Did I sacrifice any of myself by doing this?  Was it even necessary?  Probably the answer to both questions is no, but the point is, I consciously think about how my words will be taken by others.  If you do the same, you'll turn nearly all the opposes into supports next time.
 * Practice admin work in the area where others doubt you most. In my opinion, your interaction with other editors appears to be civil, but your reactions to some of the medieval minds at your RfA didn't let that come through.  Consider becoming a part of Third opinion.  I don't know the first thing about it, but perhaps you could get involved in some heated disputes (to which you are not a part, of course) and show your ability to work with others.
 * Above all, embrace WP:AGF. Not just for show, but as an abiding principle of interaction with everyone on Wikipedia (and even RL).  I've always liked Joe Biden, and even when he was caught plagiarizing in 1988 I sensed something decent about him.  I finally learned what it that I liked during the 2008 VP debate, when he told the story of when he had spoken ill of Jesse Helms, about how Mike Mansfield had told Biden something about Helms that was surprising, that this jerk Helms and his wife had adopted a nine-year child with cerebral palsy.  In other words, as loathsome as he found Helms' stances on issues, Helms could still be a decent person.  Biden said in the debate,


 * I have never since that moment in my first year questioned the motive of another member of the Congress or Senate with whom I've disagreed.


 * I can't tell you how strongly that story hit me. It is the essence of WP:AGF.  It doesn't just mean avoid saying comments that impugn your opponents' motives, but presume that, like you, he too wants what is best for Wikipedia/the world/everybody.  If you can really embrace that philosophy, you will never again have an experience like your RfA was.  In an extreme case (like the editor that originally objected to the Userbox, and who was really the only one to indicate that your userbox was enough, by itself, to disqualify you), if you cannot conceive of any positive motivation on their part, then just don't respond.  Just because it was JC (amongst others, I'm sure) who said "turn the other cheek" doesn't mean that it isn't also good advice for a gaytheist!  (And hey, at least here it's just words--I'm sure that you've dealt with actual physical threat as well.)

Okay, I've now qualified for the TLDR Barnstar. But I felt like I earned the right to speak my piece, and I do so in the hopes that some of my words will find their way into your heart. And I want you to know that I'm proud to have been a part of your RfA. HuskyHuskie (talk) 05:10, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
 * LOL, Don't worry, I read it all...and all great advice! If I decide to reapply, following this advice will help me a lot. And if you don't wanna go through this again, you'll just have to nominate me (if there is a) next time! Thanks again! C T J F 8 3  chat 12:47, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

Gaytheist Userbox
Did I invent the term? I had never heard it before, but as soon as I thought of it (it actually came to me while writing this post!) and typed it out I thought it was too good not to have been thought of before. And so it was: if you haven't googled it yet, do so--there are tons of other people who thought of it before I did.

By the way, that's the first ever userbox I've created. But I'm not happy with it. Obviously the λ is appropriate, but I couldn't think of what to do for the "atheist" portion. Strictly speaking, the struck-out chi is not really a good idea, because it's directed at a specific religion. But if you can think of a better atheist symbol that would fit in there, feel free to make the change. It may be in my user space, but it was made for you.

Hope you're feeling better with the RfA getting behind you. But all in all, I suspect you will recover from it faster than a lot of people, if for no other reason than you're probably already accustomed to taking it up the ass. (God I hope you can take a joke!) Take care, friend, I'm sure we'll keep seeing each other on our respective sides of the Mississippi. HuskyHuskie (talk) 05:00, 20 January 2011 (UTC)

Wikipedia Ambassador Program is looking for new Online Ambassadors
Hi! I noticed your activity as a Good Article reviewer, and wanted to let you know about the Wikipedia Ambassador Program, and specifically the role of Online Ambassador. We're looking for friendly Wikipedians who are good at reviewing articles and giving feedback to serve as mentors for students who are assigned to write for Wikipedia in their classes.

If you're interested, I encourage you to take a look at the Online Ambassador guidelines; the "mentorship process" describes roughly what will be expected of mentors in the coming term. If that's something you want to do, please apply!

You can find instructions for applying at WP:ONLINE. The main things we're looking for in Online Ambassadors are friendliness, regular activity (since mentorship is a commitment that spans several months), and the ability to give detailed, substantive feedback on articles (both short new articles, and longer, more mature ones).

I hope to hear from you soon.--Sage Ross - Online Facilitator, Wikimedia Foundation (talk) 03:08, 21 January 2011 (UTC)

Mdvanii
Good day!

We've haven't had any problems for a whole, knock on wood BUT

someone left this: ''This article may not meet the general notability guideline. Please help to establish notability by adding reliable, secondary sources about the topic. If notability cannot be established, the article is likely to be merged, redirected, or deleted. (January 2011)''

It's totally inappropriate and quite absurd...I get the impression, people are being anti-gay and leave these things just to be annoying....since i don't dare move it myself....can you help get it off? There are 63 major articles on this piece and we intend to add more citations,.....what more do people want? Help!....Blanderàmort (talk) 17:47, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

ps: It seems this user joined wiki just to add this comment....totally not appropriate warning in my opinion. I am not clear what a gnome actually does and it's hard to follow the explanation for me....is this user a legitimate wiki user or a vandal? Thank you for your help and input Blanderàmort (talk) 18:04, 22 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Ya, sorry, you're always going to have to deal with vandalism on LGBT related articles. Just try your best to ignore the user and revert it (not violating WP:3RR though). A WikiGnome, is usually a legitimate user who works behind the scenes tagging articles for clean up and doing small minor edits, like to grammar, spelling, etc. A troll, however, is not a legitimate user, and spends time ruining and disrupting Wikipedia, which is what we have here. They make several different accounts to try and avoid being blocked and vandalize Wikipedia. Let me know if you need more help. C T J F 8 3  chat 19:32, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

My goodness, why are people so weird? It seems as if people spend so much time thinking up ways to be awful....In some ways LGBT issues have made so many advances and then in other ways, it's as if nothing has advanced at all and we are living in the Victorian age .... Can I remove the thing that they put NOW which says it may have "PREDICTIONS"....?? There are no predictions, we are just getting the citation material ready...(I suppose they are talking about the last thing about it has been announced that the 2011 guest artists).... can I remove that or can you? Thanks so much for the help....WIki based the language on Lord of the Rings? Gnomes and trolls and whatelse, witches and fairies? Don't tell me they have fairies here? I mean, they'd be good right? Fairies are good as far as I know....Blanderàmort (talk) 13:10, 23 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I wouldn't remove the tag until the last paragraph of Mdvanii is sourced. LOL, and yes, there are Fairies :) C T J F 8 3  chat 20:59, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

I will source it shortly.....and when i do,...or if someone else does, can you remove it.......??

Really, there are fairies? I mean,...fairies ? wow. I am astonished. Blanderàmort (talk) 17:50, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Yep! If you source it, I will remove it, or you are more then welcome to remove tags once the problem is fixed. C T J F 8 3  chat 20:44, 24 January 2011 (UTC)

Hi can you help me with the Mdvanii article? I feel the citations are correct but when I removed the unreliable sources, and the reimprove tags someone put them right back in without even discussing it first. And his (Wrongcloth) making ridicilous claims about correct citations of the article. Muotinukke (talk) 18:39, 4 April 2011 (UTC)

Deletion of text from Homophobia
At least you gave a reason for the deletion, which was better than the IP. Hence my use of the word unexplained. However, my concern is that if I was to now delete every unsourced statement from the article it would become a mess. Surely a better approach is to look for source, or go to the Talk page and challenge others to find them. HiLo48 (talk) 23:59, 22 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I actually put the term in Google after I reverted and briefly looked at the results. I could look more in depth if you wish. To me, being it was its own paragraph, that is often a sign of false info and/or vandalism (which I'm not saying that edit was vandalism, as it is not). I can look for a source shortly after dinner. C T J F 8 3  chat 00:01, 23 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I'll have to look more in depth about the reliability of this reference, but here is a source to support  C T J F 8 3  chat 00:07, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

CST CDT confusion
Hi there - sorry to bother you but please see my recent edits to Rock Island, Illinois, Moline, Illinois and East Moline, Illinois concerning the CST time zone offset from UTC.

 * There are many more of these "mistakes" as I already made two changes, Hiawatha & Waterloo. I used the edit summary " fixed CDT is UTC -5 not -7 " I do not know for sure but I think that this was a mistake made to all of the Iowa incorporated cites when the infoboxes were introduced. Are you up to using AWB and making hundreds of fixes? A while back I went through the List of cities in Iowa and cleaned out the bogus entries, so it should be a good list. I checked 5 counties and they were all correct so I am assuming the counties are OK. I have not checked the unincorporated communities or townships. -- Rife Ideas  Talk  17:30, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Looks hit and miss, I checked Bettendorf, LeClaire, Cedar Rapids, and Des Moines, and those were all good. I use to use AWB, but I don't like putting my password into an external application. Perhaps User:Philosopher-Bot could do it, since it did the communities subproject talk page tagging. C T J F 8 3  chat 17:34, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I'll post a request at AutoWikiBrowser/Tasks C T J F 8 3  chat 17:45, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Edit conflict — anyway Actually still waiting on the User:Philosopher-Bot to complete trials and get the OK to proceed with the full run. I have never used AWB although Philosopher authorized me. I did not know you had to give out any password. But I guess the list could still be used without AWB and I am guessing that as editors seen the mistake on the more popular pages they were changed. Are you up to the challenge? -- Rife Ideas  Talk  17:48, 21 January 2011 (UTC)

undefined
 * Of going through all the city pages and changing???....I suppose, or we could post to the AWB tasks page. I just randomly clicked on 20 cities where ever the mouse was after I hit page down, and none were wrong. So it is very hit and miss. C T J F 8 3  chat 17:51, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I just refreshed my watch list and User:Philosopher-Bot just got the okay now it is a just wait for Philosopher to come online, he has been more absent of late. I like the idea of posting a request at AutoWikiBrowser/Tasks. it is a guessing game now but maybe more than one editor uploaded the infobox template and one had the wrong information. I checked six cities earlier and seen 3 mistakes. -- Rife Ideas  Talk  18:01, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Did you wanna try it with your new found AWB ability? Otherwise I've been thinking of creating a 2nd account for unsecured computers, and could use that to do the edits. Or we could split the work in half. C T J F 8 3  chat 18:03, 21 January 2011 (UTC)

SHIT! I didn't realize I was the one who messed up the 3 Illinois cities!! I just thought I was getting a courtesy post from DBaK due to the cities being close to Davenport. C T J F 8 3 chat 18:08, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Ha! No, it was more of a sort of discourtesy post really! :) Well, yesno; noyes; it was sort-of both - I thought I had better tell you as they were your original edits, and you might have done another 30,000 the same (or, indeed, not); but also that, yes, you looked like a locally-knowledgeable person, which I am certainly not, and therefore well-placed (aha) to think about other ones that might have the same issue. Mind you, if I had known it was going to cause the above impressive frenzy of creativity to erupt, I would have brought along a camera, a picnic blanket and a flask of tea and sat down to watch it all unfold. I really must thank you both for taking it so seriously and looking for a solution. I did have a little go at searching for the term in a simple way, but gave up two nanoseconds later when I realized the enormity of the task ... Thanks again, all good wishes, DBaK (talk) 18:21, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
 * If someone else will do the task at AutoWikiBrowser/Tasks lets try that. I am so busy with patrolling all of the communities division articles (around 5,000), helping C-Reep build articles on new unincorporated communities and still have much to do in the Communities Division pages that I would prefer not to take on this task. But will if I have to (sometime). Again lets try Autowiki first (I know nothing about that area of Wikipedia, you could educate me if you want.) -- Rife Ideas  Talk  18:25, 21 January 2011 (UTC) Oh edit conflict again. Yes I had a conversation with DBaK and he/she has been alerting all kinds of original editors about the problem. He/she is from far away (Europe I think) and was not positive. I researched it and confirmed the mistake see his/her page for details. -- Rife Ideas   Talk  18:25, 21 January 2011 (UTC) 3rd edit conflict-- Rife Ideas   Talk  18:25, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Ok, hopefully AWB users will take care of it  C T J F 8 3  chat 18:30, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I seen that AWB had taken care of the problem early this morning, only seven besides the ones we fixed manually, not as many as I feared. I checked 30 or so unincorporated communities and they were all clean and the same for townships, and the counties have a different template and I did a 10 county sample and they were all okay. So I hope and think this "mistake" is fixed. On another note look at the last post on my talk page called Oskaloosa and see if you have an answer to the IP editor. If not I will have to use the helpme template as I do not have an answer. -- Rife Ideas  Talk  20:06, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

I know you work with Davenport articles but i thouhgt maybe you can help get 2009 Little League World Series article to GA? It is important in the history of Chula Vista and im trying to expand coverage of the city for its centennial this year. It is also the most recent time a team from Iowa(From Urbandale) qualified for the world series. Spongie555 (talk) 04:26, 23 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Sure, how do you want me to help? C T J F 8 3  chat 21:00, 23 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Beacuse there is no article about the little league world series that is a GA I can't give an example. Also I never written a GA before so here is what I think could be done. Maybe we need to more sources and cite stuff and maybe expand the groups section and the championship path beacuse those two don't have any writing. If you think anything should be done since you have written GA's before that would be appreciated.   Spongie555 (talk) 21:46, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
 * That's a good start. I think we should do a WP:PR. If this was a city or a tv episodes, I could be of a lot more assistance. I'm not experienced in sports related articles. So PR is the best bet after we add some more sources. C T J F 8 3  chat 22:08, 24 January 2011 (UTC)

Sig
I was going to mention this before but must have forgotten. The colors in your signature, particularly the orange and yellow, may be impossible for users with vision problems to read. In the interests of accessibility, you might want to somehow alter your sig so that everyone will be able to read it. Cheers, Danger (talk) 14:43, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Does that make my signature an issue too?  D u s t i *poke* 22:01, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Does accessibility really apply to signatures? Really? anemone projectors 22:52, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Ya, a lot of people's sigs don't even match their user name....ie Danger. C T J F 8 3  chat 23:15, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
 * It's just a thought. There's no requirement to be accessible, it's just a decent thing to do. --Danger (talk) 10:42, 27 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Well if Wikipedia would extend the signature length, then I would gladly put a gray background behind it. C T J F 8 3  chat 16:33, 27 January 2011 (UTC)
 * There are some HTML tricks you can use to make room for a background if you're inclined. For one, the colors don't have to be in the format "#FF8800"; just use one byte for each, like this: "#F80". That trick doesn't work on IE, apparently. If you wrap the whole thing in a   tag, you can get away with not closing your   tags. Here's an example with a white background (and a darker yellow),   C T J F 8 3  chat That would actually use about 30 11 bytes less than your current sig. Hope this helps. 28bytes (talk) 22:51, 27 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Just to let you know, CT, I like the sig that 28bytes suggested; it is a slight improvement. HuskyHuskie (talk) 23:17, 27 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I'm trying to live vicariously since I keep a boring sig myself. :) I really like the rainbow effect he's got going, it's just that that standard yellow "J" is really hard to read on a light background. Tweak that and it's golden. (Literally.) 28bytes (talk) 23:22, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

 * Looks good! Thanks!! C T J F 8 3  chat 00:37, 29 January 2011 (UTC)


 * I think you can omit quotemarks on word colors and every closing "&lt;/span>" when inside a span-tag (&lt;span>), plus use color:gold (shorter than "yellow"), as:  C T J F 8 3 , now with the shorter wikitext:  C T J  F 8 3   . You might need one closing "/span" but not all of them. Each font color changes the prior color, "&lt;span style="color:blue">" as: " This is blue text ". HTML was NOT originally designed to demand a matching end-tag "&lt;/span>" for every font tag, but I don't know what the HTML fascists are planning. The World Wide Web was designed by physicists, not by computer scientists, so it was peculiar that way: it allows "&lt;center>" but not margin "&lt;left>" or "&lt;right>" which the center is between (so clueless). Now that computer experts are involved, it is still backward, and they should allow word "hue" (to avoid spelling bias against "colour"), plus denote non-nested tags perhaps as "&lt;#" to use "&lt;#span hue="red">" where the pound-sign "#" would indicate to omit the closing "/font" tag. Anyway, it seems like we need a WP essay about shortening signature text. Many other users are having trouble with the formatting of signature text. -Wikid77 09:59, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Under preferences it says "invalid wiki markup", ideas? C T J F 8 3   12:47, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Yeah, it turns out my suggestion above to skip the closing  tags is incorrect; while browsers will render it fine, the MediaWiki software is more strict and requires all tags to be closed. (See the how-tos.) Which, in retrospect, is probably a good idea, otherwise you can get an entire page of blue text, like just happened. 28bytes (talk) 19:21, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

I see a template for A7 on the talk page of this article's creator, but I see no speedy notice on the article itself. (Edited to add: I was confused by the recent reappearance of the article, and did not notice that your Speedy notice applied to the earlier appearance on March 10) I would reject speedy deletion, since toward the end he makes a credible claim of notability, that the authors works have been the subject of scholarly publication, and that they are taught in the syllabus of a university. I see it as a blathering unreferenced probable autobiography, but think in terms of Prod or AFD. Or maybe the author would agree to it being moved to his userpage. Thanks.

Frot
Hello, Ctjf83. I am coming to you about this because I sometimes see you around on sexuality topics, LGBT topics among them. I approach you today about the Frot article, which has been a problematic article for a long time, but also one that I feel I have finally made decent; my improvements to the article have been acknowledged by others (for example, here and here). But there is one editor I cannot seem to satisfy. I have been having disputes with the editor named Mijopaalmc. This can be seen on the talk page. Basically, I feel that I am constantly improving the article (adding reliable sources, tweaking things, balancing things out, etc.) and that he is constantly hindering the article (removing reliably sourced text outright, complaining about trivial matters, nitpicking, etc.). Very recently, he has been removing the text that some frot advocates are concerned with the medical risks associated with anal sex, saying that the references don't back it up. His conclusion is false, as I explained on the talk page. The sources most definitely back up that part of the reason some frot advocates do not engage in anal sex is because of the associated health risks. Several hours ago, I reworded the bit to "diseases" instead of "health risks" and added extra reliable sources to back this up. This was done as I simultaneously fixed up the rest of the section (Debates). Mijopaalmc hasn't reverted or nitpicked again yet, but I feel that he will. If you can help out with discussions or simply watching this article, please do. I need help regarding Mijopaalmc's constant nitpicking of the article. Nothing I do ever seems to satisfy him, and I often worry of violating WP:3RR when interacting with his edits. Several hours ago, I don't feel that I violated 3RR, since I feel I was reverting vandalism; he was outright removing reliably sourced material and without a valid argument or further discussion, and I warned him of this on his talk page.

I'm just asking for help. Everything else we have tried has not truly helped, and we seriously need more editors weighing in or looking after the article. Flyer22 (talk) 17:00, 24 March 2011 (UTC)
 * I've added the page to my watchlist. As far as his reverts, I was going to check the sources to see how well you portrayed what was said, but without page numbers, I have no desire to read over the whole articles, as both are very long. If you have specific page numbers, I'd be happy to review it more closely. C T J F 8 3  17:42, 24 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Thank you. And sure: Page 40 (to the right) of this source mentions how some gay men (whether frot advocates or otherwise partaking in some other sex act) campaign against anal sex, Bill Weintraub included. It also shows the quote from the male who specifically said one of the reasons he campaigns against anal sex is to save gay and bisexual men from HIV/AIDS, which is part of the text Mijopaalmc kept removing.


 * This source discusses all over why some gay men (or men who have sex with men in general) do not engage in anal sex, and mentions AIDS among the reasons; it also includes Bill Weintraub, but I know you don't feel like reading all that.


 * And I added two of these next three sources several hours ago (the Bill Weintraub interview was already there; I just moved it to support the text in question), also confirming that the reason some frot advocates do not engage in anal sex is due to diseases that may be acquired through the act, which is probably why Mijopaalmc hasn't yet removed the material again (as it further backs up the text he kept removing):


 * Here, it is made clear. It's a bit further down, where it mentions Bill Weintraub and his followers.


 * This source, which I only left in the article because it is an exclusive interview with Bill Weintraub, has Weintraub discussing health risks he associates with anal sex -- further down the article, but, again, I know you don't feel like reading or skimming over the article to locate what I mean there.


 * And then this, already there. So, basically, if Mijopaalmc removes the text again, he has even less of a valid reason to do so. There certainly was nothing valid in his removal before, since Bill Weintraub (his followers) and the one male were properly attributed to the references. Flyer22 (talk) 18:33, 24 March 2011 (UTC)

You have consistently assumed bad faith because my opinion about the article conflict with yours, violating Wikipedia policy. Please stop. Mijopaalmc (talk) 20:01, 25 March 2011 (UTC)
 * No, I will not stop. You have not given me any reason to stop. Your recent edits are atrocious, and a clear violation of WP:UNDUE/WP:Neutral point of view. Flyer22 (talk) 20:39, 25 March 2011 (UTC)

 * Ok, it's fine. C T J F 8 3  20:34, 25 March 2011 (UTC)

Ohh...there's too much reading! LOL, ok... C T J F 8 3 20:43, 25 March 2011 (UTC)
 * You do understand why I came to you, right? It's only me and him there constantly battling, and no part of Wikipedia ever seems to help; that's ridiculous. As ridiculous as his constant complaining about the article, and his expecting me to do all the work. It's always about pleasing him, and I'm tired of it. He can never compromise with me. It always has to be me compromising with him. Ugh. Flyer22 (talk) 01:40, 26 March 2011 (UTC)


 * Wow! What load of bad faith!


 * You have demonstrated that you are just as hide-bound to your own visions of what the article is supposed to be as you accuse me of being. You accused Bbb23 of giving "a platform" when all he did is agree with me that the titling of the article didn't seem appropriate. Again, if you (Flyer22) don't stop accusing me of acting in bad faith, I will report you. Mijopaalmc (talk) 02:00, 26 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Don't continue this crap at Ctjf83's talk page. The only vision I have of the article is that it be reliably sourced, clean, and tackles the subject of frot advocates appropriately. What I just stated above to Ctjf83 is true. You can call it bad faith all you want. I work on the article; you nitpick at it and complain about it...all the damn time. And that's not true how exactly? Bbb23 did give you a platform to bitch. He led into something, away from the matter at hand, that allowed you to bitch. Don't make this about me having anything against Bbb23; I don't. It's you I have something against. And, like I said, go ahead and report me and see how successful you are with that. Editors will look at my contributions...and then they will look at yours. Flyer22 (talk) 02:41, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

For 2011 it was announced[citation needed] work by Swiss photographer Frédéric Charrière has been created in a extremely Deluxe Edition Giftset; a portfolio of original prints presented in a unique box made especially for the dressed Mdvanii doll. Fashion designers Anthony Villarreal (USA), Laurent Mercier (Paris) and custom-made high fashion glovemaker Daniel Storto, (USA) have been announced[citation needed] as guest designers as well for 2011 so far.

CAn the Mdvanii article be elevated in status now...? It currently is at START status and I think, that since it was made it has really been greatly improved and should be elevated in it's status. How can that be done? The removal of the links of the videos is unfortunate because it was exactly the videos mentioned. WHy can't they be used? They were broadcast all over the world on television. One was shown in a museum as mentioned. Thank you again for your kindness and helpBlanderàmort (talk) 19:03, 21 March 2011 (UTC)
 * ✅ you can change the class of the article from start to either C or B, depending on which one you feel it is based on this criteria. Anyone is free to change the class as long as it isn't to GA or FA, and as long as it is reasonable. To change it, change the word "start" on to either "C" or "B". Any more help, ask away. :)  C T J F 8 3  19:52, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

Thank you so much for the help...it is really great that you help us defend this subject...I am trying to change the article to "B" status but cannot figure it out....how do I access that flag and change the status or can you do it? I am not really good at the technical aspect of wiki as you know...thank you again!Blanderàmort (talk) 20:25, 21 March 2011 (UTC)
 * I'd rather guide you through it, then do it for you, so you learn :). Go to the talk page, click edit, look for the tag that says " ", and change the word "start" to either "B" or "C". :)  C T J F 8 3  20:27, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

Can you believe I actually figured it out? I went back to the page and said to myself...."this cannot be that hard"....and sure enough....the obvious word "edit" and voila! So thank you so much for your patience and kindness....it is deeply appreciated. AND it is really a great thing to help build this article within the standards of wiki....its a great experience and at the same time defends LGBTQ rights....a good thing for all. Thank you very much. Blanderàmort (talk) 20:31, 21 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Hey, you did a great job writing the article, so yes, I can believe you figured it out! :) Keep up the great work, and again, come to me if you have issues. C T J F 8 3  20:32, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

Hi, Thank you...it was done by a number of people who did the work....I think it's a good piece now....BUT someone called Legalpower keeps putting that tag which is really unfair and not right,...can you get him to stop or what does one have to do? Totally hacking! Blanderàmort (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 17:05, 23 March 2011 (UTC).

Thank you. Neither do I, in any way,...I think this person is just doing a sortof hacking of the article....hidden agenda perhaps, i don't even understand how the article in any way has anything which is biased or conflictual, it's just pure facts, and encyclopedic...it's our goal to make it perfect and we are still getting documents together to add additional citations. Thanks for the help again. I really hope this person will not continue to add the tag which is inappropriate. Blanderàmort (talk) 21:02, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

Good evening....Its back! The tag is back and I just simply cannot understand it...the article is not in any way as the tag says...can you please help? I am so frustrated that it keeps getting put back....not fair at all! Blanderàmort (talk) 21:41, 24 March 2011 (UTC)

This is really hacking at it's exptreme now.....SOMEONE Keeps putting that tag back, every day....it has to be blocked now....can you help???? thi si spurely ridiculous, instead of improving the text with citations which we are all contributiong, someone has a personal agenda with this article....it needs to be blocked now, please help us...thank youBlanderàmort (talk) 20:00, 25 March 2011 (UTC)
 * The best I can suggest is you request page protection WP:RPP or report the user for vandalism WP:ANV if that is the case. C T J F 8 3  20:30, 25 March 2011 (UTC)

I was hoping to get help from you...that is toosophisticated for me to learn right this minute and if you tell e the steps i will try to do it if it happens again....they have put the tag and I removed it again...fourth time in two dâys......how does one do it? PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP¨Its like such a violation....Blanderàmort (talk) 22:52, 25 March 2011 (UTC)
 * I'd take it easy for a bit, I don't want you to get blocked. Right now the best thing to do is weigh in here C T J F 8 3  22:59, 25 March 2011 (UTC)

I asked for semi protection..alan poole....why would he think that? This is iisue over since last year. there is nothing about the article which is unbalanced...what do you think? Should i leave the request for semi protection?Blanderàmort (talk) 23:11, 25 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Ya...I mean it very well could be 100% disruptive anti-gay tagging...but that would still get either of us blocked for WP:3RR, so for now, let's just see how WP:COIN goes. C T J F 8 3  23:13, 25 March 2011 (UTC)

Am sorry but this is like gay bashinh....they are all ganging up on the article ,now Mr levick.....he put the Tag back and he took away the protection...how can we stop this...it's totally unfair.what is the problem...no one eve bothers to say what it is that is COI...none of us have any thing to do witht he authors of the work and none of us are makes anything but the best job possible...can you please help us?he's so unfair.Blanderàmort (talk) 00:36, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

Alan Poole 8 and legalpower both are brand new to wiki and seem to have ONLY worked on Mdvanii article to add these tags,..its hacking and anti-gay! It is also unfair. Nobody is discussing it on the COI page and nobody is interested in debating this issue since there is non. The article needs to be protected from these people. Can you help? Blanderàmort (talk) 06:36, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

Seems like anti-gay tagging to me.I'd like to see it stop. The contributors are not really concerned wikipedia editors and have only one aim and it's to tag the Mdvanii article which seems suspicious. Its a hack job. ALphaWord (talk) 06:50, 26 March 2011 (UTC)
 * While you both are possibly correct, can you just wait a few days and see how WP:COIN turns out? If other users suspect those editors of being disruptive, it will go a lot further to getting them blocked then if we just complain about it. C T J F 8 3  08:01, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

Clearly they are ganging up on this article. NOW there is another tag about the citations....every single citation is perfect. i have checked them.SO have others, they are in various languages and countries. CAn you remove one of them? Nobody is even reacting to the WP:COIN because the article is fine....its like a bunch of locusts....can you helpBlanderàmort (talk) 11:51, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

Checkered all refs. They all check out. They are in several languages.There is no prob. with refs or citations. Need to add more perhaps but not major ones.ALphaWord (talk) 11:56, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

I have also checked everything again, it all is absolutely correct. The guy being a pain is siomply not looking in the right places. for the correct way to look up INPI registered models you need to go here; http://bases-modeles.inpi.fr/Typo3_INPI_Modeles/dessins_recherche_avancee.html

If you insert each number you'll see that in the catgegory of Toys and Games class 21 (Jeux et Jouets) sub class 01 (making 21-01) you will find each and every reference for Billy Boy. for those specific dates when the patent and registered model was officially registered. I added the link to the citation number TEN...so any er....simple minded folks.... who don't make an effort can do it themselves more easily.....and also citation number six is a anonymous collector, not related to the artists or to myself and i imagine anyone else editing this article. This collector was showing off her early BillyBoy* Barbie dolls and wrote about them. It is a mini articlée written by a anonymous third party. Its valid. I have removed the tag. I think it is correct to remove it and if not tell me what to do please because if you do not make a real effort to read japanese, French and Spanish as I do, you may not really understand the citations. These artists are known all over the world and since 1989 this artwork Mdvanii has had a vast amount of press. I myself am preparing more citations, hopefully others will follow soon, but are doing a good job getting the exact links, is very time consuming.Many old publications have not put on line their archives.Blanderàmort (talk) 16:32, 26 March 2011 (UTC)
 * You might just post about it on WP:ANI...who knows if you will get any results. I'm becoming tired of admins not doing anything about issues. Not being an admin, there isn't much more I can do....sorry....  C T J F 8 3  16:36, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

Now Legalpower is putting the TAG again.....can you help with it ....? It really is hacking at this point. I can try to post it but it seems it takes me three times as long to figure stuff out.Blanderàmort (talk) 14:11, 27 March 2011 (UTC)

Hello, I have put a complaint on the noticeboard. Would it be possible that you join us there and state what you feel is correct about the article and if it merits to have the COI tag removed by LegalPower?

Craig Dean
Ctjf83, regarding this edit, he doesn't identify as gay or bisexual. This is why we have kept him in the LGBT category all this time, because it allows us to still categorize him as part of the community without assigning him a specific title. The same is done for a few other characters too. This is why I reverted back to the LGBT category moments ago. I mean, if the character refuses to identify as gay or bisexual, is it okay to assign them to one of those labels anyway? If anything, Dean would fit more accurately in the bisexual category, since he quite clearly has had a sexual interest in women. I let the John Paul McQueen and Craig Dean article stay in the fictional gay males category, since it is about both of them and "gay" can also describe the relationship. Flyer22 (talk) 00:16, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Ok, that's perfectly fine with me. Thanks for the correction, C T J F 8 3  04:39, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
 * No problem. As you know, there are even some characters who are sexually ambiguous or their sexual orientation is heavily debated; the LGBT category is used for them as well. Marissa Cooper, Ennis Del Mar and Jack Twist are examples. For, Ennis and Jack, the subject of categorizing them was recently brought up on my talk page. If you would like to weigh in on that, feel free to do. I am sometimes torn on whether to just categorize them as gay or bisexual. Flyer22 (talk) 13:06, 8 April 2011 (UTC)

Mass deletion by an editor at the Heterosexualization article
You may want to weigh in on this: Talk:Heterosexualization. An editor (Masculinity), one I have long viewed as problematic in his editing, removed reliably sourced and relevant material from the article all because he feels the article is too associated with LGBT issues. Because of this, I have restored the article prior to his changes. He may revert me or continue deleting, however, and I do not feel like battling/arguing with him. At least not alone.

I am not a native speaker, so some details in English are beyond me...

 * Spotted your note on C.Fred's talk asking him to block HellYeahPartyTime; I already got him. If you go HERE you can report him yourself any time you see him.  Just scroll down to the Start an SPI case here section (or just hit the "skip to" link for "Submitting an SPI case" at the top) and replace "SOCKMASTER" with "BlueMondo131" (our sock master).  A new report will open up, and you can fill in the sock names as you see them, like I did in these archived reports.  Just try to be sure you have a reason that will get the admins to look at him (I personally try to be thorough), and be sure to change the " |checkuser=no " line at the top to " |checkuser=yes ", as it causes the admins to use (or at least consider using) the Checkuser feature to compare the sock to the original and possibly find other hidden accounts.  BlueMondo131 is as of now up to 30 known account names, only 9 of which he's actually been able to use.  SSJamesLt was caught up in the sweep of HellYeahPartyTime and, sadly, wasn't one of the 9 (they're that good at what they do there).   KnownAlias    contact   16:14, 27 April 2011 (UTC)

Update
Hiya dude! Howzit? I hope it's going well with you, because I'm having a real fun time here on Wikipedia!

I gave some help with the Hudson Valley portal's panorama to help it with its Featured Portal nomination. I joined 4, yes, 4, projects, which I'm going to see what I enjoy working on. I've already been working hard with another contributer on Netball in SA, and helped another with a translation. I had a bit of trouble with an image (a Copyright issue), but learned from it and won't make the same mistake twice. I've also took a vote in some FA nominations and articles nominated for deletion.

I also took a few days to read more about Wikipedia and its history, and tips on being a better editor. :D Just wanted to give you notice that I'm doing fine, and I'll remember to ask you anything when I'm stuck. Please tell me if you see any problems with my editing. Have a nice day further! -- Another Type of Zombie <sup style="color:limegreen;">talk  18:34, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

My rejected Referenced clips table
I really do think that the Referenced clips tables need some improvement. I don't think my idea is "cluttered" since it has more features like emboldening the episode titles' since they are what the plot of clip shows involve mostly as they are past episodes and thus, their should be emphasized. I made seasons linkable for easier access and colour coded them. --Capsoul (talk) 19:22, 29 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Why is what season the episode is in important? Plus the table took up the full width of the page, instead of just half. Also can you please read Copyrights, Images, and WP:NFCC, so I don't have to go through and tag all your uploads as illegal copyrighted uploads. C T J F 8 3  19:30, 29 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Seasons are important because they contain the episodes, like how albums contain the songs. Even the table for "Gump Roast" has a Season column on. Having the table taking up the full width makes it better aligned though I guess that it could be regular sized instead since it is too big.


 * Now, about uploading images... Does this mean I need permission from copyright holders like Fox of The Simpsons to upload images of the series?--Capsoul (talk) 19:54, 29 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Don't 100% quote me on this, but you can upload images from Fox or the DVD screenshots, because they own the images, and claim fair use. HOWEVER, per WP:NFCC #8, you need a really good reason for it, and not just, for example, Homer looking at the roof of the car and talking to god, like you uploaded before. Your images uploads come from sites that illegally stream the episodes, and they don't own the copyright, Fox does. So you don't specifically need permission from Fox, but as #8 says, "Non-free content is used only if its presence would significantly increase readers' understanding of the topic, and its omission would be detrimental to that understanding.", so you need a very good reason to upload an image.

 * OK.--Capsoul (talk) 20:39, 29 April 2011 (UTC)

Santana
Hey! Re these edits, have you had chance to catch "Born This Way" yet? If not, she actually self-identifies as a closeted lesbian. Frickative 22:08, 2 May 2011 (UTC)
 * I did, but I kinda thought it was just Brittany making the shirt for her...plus she has hooked up with guys. I have no problem if you revert it though. C T J F 8 3  22:12, 2 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Oh, I meant her inner-monologue at the start, where she says "I'm a closet lesbian and a judgmental bitch." The T-shirt was brilliant though :) Frickative  22:17, 2 May 2011 (UTC)
 * I just love her "the only straight I am is straight up bitch"...ok, so you think we should leave it lesbian, or should it be bi since she dated guys? Or should we chalk that up to being in the closet? I actually have to head to work right now for 12 hours, but I'll see your response when I get back. I'll support what ever you do! :) C T J F 8 3  22:20, 2 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Haha, that was a great line! I think the producers are going to pass the guys off as her being closeted, based on the Falchuk quote in the article ("Santana is a lesbian. She might not be ready to come out yet, but she is."), so I think it should say lesbian. (Though this is assuming they don't forget their own continuity and screw it up in a few episodes time, seeing as Brittany is apparently only bi-curious now! =/) Frickative  22:30, 2 May 2011 (UTC)

As far as images go....do we want to make sure every character has a (free) image in the infobox, or is somewhere on the article good enough? C T J F 8 3 12:21, 3 May 2011 (UTC) Also, am I good on removing all unnecessary non-free images with a summary of: "per WP:NFCC #8, adds nothing to article and Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Television/Glee_task_force"? C T J F 8 3 12:43, 3 May 2011 (UTC)


 * Yup, good summary! And good job for doing it as well, I'd pretty much totally forgotten that I'd meant to get round to it. I think somewhere in the article is good enough for free cast images, but from the brief discussion at WP:GLEE, I know our thoughts on that differ. I've no objection if you want to put them in the infobox, I just personally prefer them in the text when they're not "in-character". :) Frickative  15:07, 4 May 2011 (UTC)

Redirect of The Silence of the Clamps
I have undone your redirect of The Silence of the Clamps, while redirecting it was reasonable enough as a BOLD edit, I think it needs discussion at this point in light of the objection from the user that reverted you twice. Monty <sub style="color:#A3BFBF;">845  17:44, 6 May 2011 (UTC)
 * That user is new, and obviously unfamiliar with policy, I'll just take it to WP:AFD then. C T J F 8 3  17:47, 6 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Your revert and reason where poor decisions in my opinion. C T J F 8 3  17:54, 6 May 2011 (UTC)
 * The way I look at it, the content is not so limited as to be an unambiguous redirect case. User:Holiday56 also undid your previous redirect of the article, and while User:Ring2011 may be new and unfamiliar with policy, I assume that someone with 37K edits has some policy knowledge. And while I think it is likely that your AfD will result in a redirect, I still think it is procedurally the correct way to go in light of the reversions of your redirect. Monty  <sub style="color:#A3BFBF;">845  18:01, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

We need to move File:Steve Hackett - Time Lapse.jpg to File:Steve Hackett - Time Lapse (1994).jpg because it is the first album which was 1999 rerecorded (and has already a picture in the article). Otherwise both pictures can't be differentiate. The tagged second image was only half, so the template was "incorrect" and you couldn't see why. <b style="font-family:Courier New; display:inline; border:#009 1px dashed; padding:1px 6px 2px 7px; white-space:nowrap; color:#000000; font-size:smaller;">mabdul</b> 19:41, 7 May 2011 (UTC)

Re:Question
In Canada, there are two major networks that broadcast mostly American shows: CTV and Global (CityTV also has some). There are four major American networks, so those two split up the shows and have to fit them into their schedule. Because of this, some shows air a bit earlier than in the US, some air later. I guess Global is showing something else at 8, so they bumped The Simpsons up for those weeks. This is not new, they have been doing this for many years. I don't think Fox really has a say in this, it's either put up, or their shows don't get simulcast in Canada. Either way, it happens so often that it's not really that notable on individual pages (unless it's a major event or a season finale). -- Scorpion <sup style="color:black;">0422  23:10, 10 May 2011 (UTC)

Thank you so much!!
What you did with my userpage was exactly what I wanted. Thanks a lot!! I hope you don't mind if I come around in the future if I find myself in a similar problem. Thanks again!!Asinthior (talk) 15:22, 13 May 2011 (UTC)

Stopping by to say hi
Long time no see! Yeah, a whole day is long time. That's me trying to make a joke, if you are wondering.

So I did ask at the help desk and thanks to you I was able to solve my translation dilemma. In case you are biting your nails to know it, friars are called friars in English. The rest of the translation is going slowly, but hopefully it's getting somewhere. I finished the first paragraph yesterday, and maybe today I'll do the second one.

I've also stuck my nose here and there mediating, answering requests for comment and even participating in a wikiquette alert discussion. No idea if anything will come out of it, but let's see.

I guess you left the ball on my court and I was a little shy to kick it back, but since you did say you would be cool with either of my propositions, I thought maybe we could do both.

We could have chat session once per week or every other week and you could "train" me by sending me do something and checking on me. What would be the best time to have a chat session? For me weekends work best, because I don't have to work, but I usually have at least one free day between Monday and Friday, so we could also schedule it then. Just not on Monday on Friday because I always work on those days.

The other option, i.e. your sending me to do something, seems an easier way to start. So if you have some article that needs something being done to it let me know and after some instructing I can start working on it. Asinthior (talk) 17:22, 15 May 2011 (UTC)


 * We'd probably just have to play it week by week to see the best time for us to be available. Once it gets closer to the weekend we can try and hammer out a time. One thing I noticed and suggest to you, is that you start to use edit summaries for all your edits. If one day you want to try for an admin, it will definitely bite you if you have little to no edit summary usage. Even if you don't ever want to be an admin, edit summaries every time is a good idea. It in no way needs to be elaborate. Something as simple as "+" or "fix" or "update" is enough. It just gives other users a general idea of what you did. :) C T J F 8 3  20:43, 15 May 2011 (UTC)


 * That sounds fine to me. Let's do it like that. I'll start using edit summaries after I read the guidelines. Asinthior (talk) 22:45, 15 May 2011 (UTC)


 * So I have a question about edit summaries. Should I also use them for talk pages or admin pages? Because I can see why one would use them when editing articles, but not really for talk pages and the like. Asinthior (talk) 23:17, 15 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Technically you should use them for all pages. But like I said, something as simple as "re" or "+" for a talk page is more than sufficient. C T J F 8 3  23:20, 15 May 2011 (UTC)

I need your help with the San Marcos University article
So there's a small controversy on how to translate the name of the university into English. If you look here, two editors (one of which hadn't participated in previous discussions on the page) somehow voted and decided to change the name. The first editor actually seems to not know any Spanish, which I would think was a requirement to participate of this particular dispute. So I'd like to call another vote or whatever it is that they did down there and reach a wider consensus. So what did they do down there and how do I do it? Asinthior (talk) 12:37, 18 May 2011 (UTC)

Not long ago I started a new article. It's tiny, a one-liner stub. I did it because it's out of my field of expertise, I just thought it should be there.

Where or how can I contact them and draw attention to the little stub so that they can help improve it? Asinthior (talk) 15:08, 18 May 2011 (UTC)

 * Damn! Don't want wrinkles, least not at 28! LOL, what is the article you created? I'd go to WP:LING and ask for help there. It looks like a pretty active project, so you should get responses. To start a discuss about renaming a page, follow the instructions on WP:RM, not too hard of a procedure :) Message me if you need more help! C T J F 8 3  03:48, 19 May 2011 (UTC)

National Register of Historic Places listings in Rock Island County, Illinois
Hello Ctjf83!

I've been uploading photos from my recent trip (Philly-Denver via Quad Cities). There will be lots in Davenport, but first I uploaded Rock Island County. I missed Black's Store, May 28, 1976, 1st Ave. 41°33′25″N 90°24′51″W	Hampton, but the rest are illustrated. Any chance you can snap Black's Store? I'd say that the list would be ready for Featured List status if it had a 3 paragraph intro (maybe more).

Any help appreciated,

Re: DC
Hi! First, this would be a matter to be brought up on the article talk page, and second, you removed a sourced fact that makes note about why DC is peculiar when it comes to the geographical distribution of SSM in the U.S., which is obviously related to the article subject and not some trivial statement. Regards Hekerui (talk) 09:45, 4 June 2011 (UTC)
 * The issue is that we don't make up content, we look at reliable sources, and a reliable source found it worthy enough to mention for D.C. and someone included it. I think the fact merits that inclusion and explained why. If you find something reliably sourced on Iowa that could reasonably be considered topical, then edit that article.

Undo Edits
Hey there CTJ, would you mind explaining your reasoning for removing my placement of the wikipedia commons image of the lesbian parent family from the homosexual agenda page and the lGBT rights in the United States page? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Morningmurk (talk • contribs)
 * I apologize, LGBT pages receive a lot of vandalism, so I may have been a little hasty in my revert. I'm just not sure why you removed this image, instead of just placing the lesbian family image somewhere else in the article. C T J F 8 3  07:46, 10 June 2011 (UTC)
 * That's alright, I appreciate your vigilance. I replaced the rainbow flag image (the rainbow flag appears twice in the article) with the family because it is the family law section and yet there are no pictures of LGBT families (especially problematic considering anti-LGBT rhetoric concerning "family values" which seemingly denies the existence of queer families). In fact, there isn't a single image of a person on the entire webpage. Since homophobia is often born from a disgust of the "other", I feel a few friendly faces would make the article more human and grounded.  As for the homosexual agenda page, I replaced the old image due to its somewhat outdated/poor picture quality.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Morningmurk (talk • contribs) 08:11, 10 June 2011 (UTC)

Curious
Hello. I've been reviewing Cluebot false positive reports, and I came upon this, which you called "the worst revert I've seen from a bot". Upon seeing the user's talk page, while taking in account your assertation that "[Bazbeandnadz] was reverting the IP vandalism", it just makes me curious on why you reported it in the first place. -- The Σ talk<sub style="margin-left:-3.5ex">contribs 03:08, 11 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Well I apparently didn't scroll down the whole page on that user's edit. At the top the user actually changes the name back to the correct name, and then the bot reverts to the incorrect name. Like I said, I must've missed scrolling down to see the other edits. C T J F 8 3  08:20, 11 June 2011 (UTC)

 * Yeah, I wanted to protect it cause for some reason someone has been posting on that page unreliable Volume listing and I kinda wanted to stop that since only two have been released so far and I do question the source for volume 3 but I am not gonna change it based on my own opinion I usually ask and see what others think or make sure it's okay before I do so, you know so I don't cause edit wars cause that's not why I'm on here I'm here to help keep things accurate and up to date or help edit mistakes or misspelled words, etc. But I just feel like posting volumes that have yet to be released is wrong and unreliable especially with no reference, I mean yeah so far the two that have been released have four episode but it doesn't mean it's gonna stay like that it may change later on when they get closer to completing season one you know I mean? I just felt that that needed to stop cause we don't know anything yet. That's why I wanted to put a protection on it cause of so many unreliable postings that can't be confirmed.

Davenport pix
I'm sorry for my backlog uploading my pix from Davenport. I'll try to get them all uploaded today and tomorrow. Please do not let my backlog prevent you from taking more pix!

I did have some problems in Davenport. My detour from my US 30 plan was a bit spur of the moment, so I didn't have a list of un-photographed sites, only the full list. So I ended up taking lots of sites already photographed. Much to my consternation, I clearly did a poor job on the already taken sites - I may upload 5-6 of these because I think they are marginally better than the current photos (please revert any changes you disagree with!), but there are more than twice as many where the current photos are clearly better. I think I must have just worn myself out, and need to concentrate more on quality than quantity.

Looking forward to seeing your photos! All the best.

Strange photographic behavior in Davenport
Are you familiar with what many WP:NRHP photogs do with torn down/missing buildings? They take pictures of where the building was. Strange behavior, I admit, especially if taken to excess. But it allows something of a triple check on the "missing building" and sometimes comes up with new info. If you don't approve of such behavior, feel free to ignore it, or even to revert the changes I just made to the downtown Davenport list. If my work in this regards is correct, there are 3 sites left to photograph in downtown. 1) the Bonaventure Heinz House 2 - which I never got near, as far as I can tell. 2) Club Fusion, believe it or not. See talk at Building at 813-815 W. Second Street and check out the Google Streetview. And 3) Building at 1119-1121 W. Third Street which is probably not there. I got very close at Meiser Drug Store (1115 W. 3rd) and nothing similar was around.  632 vs 636 3rd Street (see Siemer House) may be worth triple checking the sources on - maybe they made a typo, but the building at 636 seems to fit the description of 632, which is now an empty lot at its side.

If you're looking to complete the list - there are only 3 left!

Hey
About the conversation between me and Chris McFeely he got kinda rude with me on the history page of the SDMI episode page and I went back at him cause he told me to "Kindly get b***" and that was uncalled for so that's what was going on between me and him it was more he was being rude about the edits then anything and everyone kept reverting back so when I was trying to fix it it got lost. Anyway that's what was going on. And yeah I did misunderstand you but there's been a lot of complaining about too revealing on it and it's just eh...a headache cause it's getting vandalized by IP users esepcially the SDMI page me and Black Yoshi finally got it semi-protected cause someone went and removed the reference list.

 * Looked it up and there are no comenteries on those episodes (sad), But I am working on episodes that do have comenteries. Could you get some info on The Son Also Draws and Holy Crap. -- Pedro J. the rookie 20:51, 22 June 2011 (UTC)

 * Hey two things, what do you think Of Road to the North Pole for GAN, and remember to look up those commenteries, thanks. Pedro J.  the rookie 15:53, 26 June 2011 (UTC)

Shit! Forgot all about it! It may not be till Thursday. Sorry. North Pole looks good, I'll do a copy edit and then you can submit it. :) C T J F 8 3  22:00, 26 June 2011 (UTC)

Made some minor changes. Also: After that it should be good to go! C T J F 8 3 23:43, 26 June 2011 (UTC)
 * "Ron MacFarlane who narrated part of the episode mentioned that Kenny Rogers was supposed to be there", you sure that wasn't a joke? Highly likely it was.
 * Is there any more for the production section? At least about Aurora Boreanaz's appearance, and Stewie's appearance on Bones.
 * The cultural references section may need trimming and cleaning up.
 * ""Road to the North Pole" was broadcast on December 12, 2010, as a part of an animated television night on Fox,"...All Sundays are animated on Fox during that time frame.
 * Okay thanks. Just posting this to remind you of the commenteries. Also could you make a quick copyedit to Mind Over Murder, going to put it up for GAN soon. Pedro J.  the rookie 14:11, 29 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Hey remember to look those commenteries. Pedro J.  the rookie 21:33, 4 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Oh, ya, sorry...been busy lately, worked 10 out of the last 11 days :/ I'll get to them soon :) C T J F 8 3  12:22, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

Hey
Is there any guideline page on here for music artist? I'm just wondering outta curiousity. JamesAlan1986 (talk-Contributes) 09:03, 28 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Ya, WP:BAND is really all I can find, maybe something helpful at MOS:MUSIC. Best bet is also to look at FAs like The Beatles and Michael Jackson to see how they are laid out and such. C T J F 8 3  19:37, 28 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks! Sorry I didn't reply sooner, been busy. The reason I asked this is cause I was trying to look to see if the Compilation albums should be added to the Hilary Duff page as I have seen many artist pages do that. LeAnn Rimes', Reba McEntire's, Brooks & Dunn's and many other artist pages do it and I've tried to add them but people kept removing them so I figured it was vandalism cause it kept getting removed. I could be wrong but I think one of the pages I read said they should be condensed to it but I maybe misreading it. JamesAlan1986 (talk-Contributes) 05:25, 6 July 2011 (UTC)
