Reposition pictures on Doctor Who
Hi - I moved the pictures back to where they were because moving them over to the left squeezed the text of the synopsis between the picture and the infobox, which looks really ugly. If you have a particular reason for wanting it on the other side, do take it to the talk pages there, as this layout is currently the consensus standard for the Doctor Who serial/episode articles. See also WikiProject Doctor Who for the agreed-on style guide, and the associated talk pages. Thanks! --khaosworks 02:29, Jun 27, 2005 (UTC)
 * I didn't really like the look of the pictures on the right, since they ended up under the info box which left a large gap between the text and the headline in the plot. But, I am happy to leave them the way they are if everyone else wants to keep them that way. Cyclone49 02:32, 27 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Ah, I see. The reason why it looks that way is because the article layout was designed for a fuller plot outline, which has not happened in that case. The solution really is to either write a full outline, or add the (br clear="all") tag (which I just did to 100,000 BC). Cheers. --khaosworks 02:55, Jun 27, 2005 (UTC)

Ax's Morphs
Elfangor stated that the djabala is required to pass the morphing proficiency test, so we can safely assume that Ax has acquired that. The kafit bird, however, we can't.--Lkjhgfdsa 13:59, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Um... okay... (lol, I assume you meant to write this in the Ax talk page) Cyclone49 14:30, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, you said to correct you if you were wrong. :P--Lkjhgfdsa 15:18, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Erm, yes, but I was talking about the Drode/Capasin thing, I haven't actually done anything on the Ax article. I think you may be getting me confused with Cowbellallen. Cyclone49 15:46, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Indeed I am. My bad. (Ironic as you're opposing each other on the issue...) Sorry. I'll leave you alone now. --Lkjhgfdsa 15:56, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Heheh, that's alright Cyclone49 16:09, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

Capasin/Drode
I would like to ask you in what book might the description of the Capasin be found, where it says that he looks like an octopus. I am currently out of town and will be doing much research about this topic when I return. Luckily, I brought my Ellimist Chronicles with me, and here is the description of a Capasin from this book, on page 61, then 67:

" It had only two eyes, both forward - looking. Blue. Almost pretty."

"I could see the alien too well now. His lidless eyes were darkening. As if some deeper blue pigment were seeping into the iris. His head was bulbous, large by our standards.He had no wings. He had a beak for a mouth, a sharp, downturned thing that gave him a sad expression. A number of long, thin, multiple jointed arms hung limp. His skin was a green so dark it might have almost been black."

And just for kicks:

" ... I had a relationship with this dead alien. He was mine in some undefinable way." I feel that this backs up my support of the Drode being a Capasin, used by Crayak to intimidate the Ellimist.

Now, I don't currently have the rest of my collection with me, but I can recall some of the moments when the Drode appeared. I think I remember a moment when Jake said he had dark green, almost black skin (Megamorphs 4 - Back to Before). If not him, it was someone else. Multi - jointed arms, we both agree on that. In book 47, Rachel encounters him. Read that really fast and let me know if she says something about his appearance (a beak, the eye color, anything). I feel that if you look at the Drode's description in these books, you will also agree that the Drode is in fact a Capasin.

Later on in the EC, Ellimist saw the Drode when he was attacked by Father. He described his amrs as being limp.

And for a final note, Ellimist chased Crayak into a system with 3 worlds, one of which being the Capasin home world. As you know, there were 3 asteroids headed for the planet, one of which would explode before it hit, thereby saving the planet. Ellimist believed that the Capasins best served Crayaks needs, so Crayak would choose to save them. Indeed, the Capasins survived the encounter, thus being able to serve a purpose for Crayak later on. This also leaves room for the species to be betrayed by the Drode, which is often implied.

Sources needed for trivia cruft
In a recent edit of yours, you said trivia did not need to be sourced. I'm afraid you are very, very, wrong. here are the relevant guidelines and policies: WP:EPISODE, WP:NOT, WP:V, WP:OR, WP:RS, and WP:WAF. Allow me to quote from the relevant pages. WP:EPISODE, a guideline, instructs: "* Content about television episodes must conform to Wikipedia content policies, including but not limited to Verifiability and No original research. Avoid excessive trivia and quotations.
 * Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information.
 * Extensive quotation from episodes is a violation of copyright and unlikely to be fair use.
 * Here are some ideas for what information to include about a television episode, where possible:
 * The plot summary of the episode
 * The episode's relevance in ongoing story arcs, if any
 * How the episode was received by critics
 * The episode's impact on popular culture
 * Information on production and broadcasting of the episode
 * Elements which are best avoided in any episode article :
 * A scene-by-scene synopsis. An overall plot summary is much better; the article should not attempt to be a replacement for watching the show itself, it should be about the show
 * Particularly for comedies, no attempt should be made to recreate the humor of the show. This rarely works, and is contrary to the purpose of an encyclopedia."

WP:NOT, a policy says: "Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information

Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of items of information. That something is 100% true does not mean it is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia. While there is a continuing debate about the encyclopedic merits of several classes of entries, current consensus is that Wikipedia articles are not simply: Plot summaries. Wikipedia articles on works of fiction should contain real-world context and sourced analysis, offering detail on a work's achievements, impact or historical significance, not solely a summary of that work's plot. A plot summary may be appropriate as an aspect of a larger topic."

WP:V, a policy, is clear: "The policy: Articles should contain only material that has been published by reliable sources.
 * 1) Editors adding new material to an article should cite a reliable source, or it may be challenged or removed by any editor.
 * 2) The obligation to provide a reliable source lies with the editors wishing to include the material, not on those seeking to remove it."

WP:OR, a policy, states: "

That is, any facts, opinions, interpretations, definitions, and arguments published by Wikipedia must already have been published by a reliable publication in relation to the topic of the article."

WP:RS, a guideline, reads in part: "Popular culture and fiction

Articles related to popular culture and fiction must be backed up by reliable sources like all other articles. However, due to the subject matter, many may not be discussed in the same academic contexts as science, law, philosophy and so on; it is common that plot analysis and criticism, for instance, may only be found in what would otherwise be considered unreliable sources. Personal websites, wikis, and posts on bulletin boards, Usenet and blogs should still not be used as secondary sources. When a substantial body of material is available the best material available is acceptable, especially when comments on its reliability are included."

WP:WAF, a guideline, tells us: "Wikipedia policy on verifiability requires that articles "rely on credible, third-party sources with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy." However, articles written from an in-universe perspective are overly reliant on the fiction itself as a primary source. Lacking as they are in any critical analysis of the subject, these articles may invite original research. In other words, lacking critical analysis from secondary sources, Wikipedia editors and fans of the subject often feel compelled to provide such analysis themselves. Consider this analogy: Would it be acceptable to write an article on flight based solely on watching birds flying? Furthermore, much of this analysis might seem on the surface to be quite sound. For example, assume that an editor creates an article on a starship recently introduced on a science fiction TV show. Using the episodes as reference, he or she writes, "Finn-class starfighters have purple shielding and can fly faster than Mach 3." But how do we really know that all Finn-class starships have purple shielding? What if there are green ones that just have not been introduced yet? And what if later episodes show that Finn-class starships come in slower or faster varieties, too? The editor has made an inference, based on limited fictional information. Framing things from the perspective of our own universe eliminates the problem altogether: "In Episode 37, Commander Kinkaid obtains a Finn-class starfighter with purple shielding. Vice Admiral Hancock calls the ship 'a real space ripper' and says that she can 'make it past Mach 3'."

Please understand that Wikipedia is a general purpose encyclopedia and just not the place to repeat jokes from the episodes or say what product placement you have happened to notice. If you want to write a deconstruction of the episode's use of narrative and novel juxtaposition of cultural memes, that's fantastic. Find some reliable 3rd party sources and show us what you've got. Adding more items to a bulleted list of things you can see when you watch the episode is just not acceptable. Take a look at the Featured articles, that's some good writing, that is what we're shooting for here. Cheers. L0b0t 04:14, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Moorebond1964.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Moorebond1964.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

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

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Videmus Omnia Talk  03:56, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

Infoboxes
I think it might be an idea to hold off adding infoboxes to the articles about backbenchers. While they can be quite useful with, say, ministers, where there's quite a bit that needs summarising in easy form, for articles like Graham Perrett, everything that would be in the infobox is already in the (short) lead section. As such, they're really just taking up space, and not adding anything much to the usability of the article.

Also, you've been adding "The Hon" to these people - as they're all first-term MPs and none of them have been appointed to Cabinet, they are not eligible to be referred to as "the honourable". Rebecca 03:16, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

Unreferenced BLPs
Hello Cyclone49! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 2 of the articles that you created  are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current Category:All_unreferenced_BLPs article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the unreferencedBLP tag. Here is the list:

Non-free rationale for File:Rikvannutter.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Rikvannutter.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page.

Speedy deletion nomination of Miranda Fryer


A tag has been placed on Miranda Fryer requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Orphaned non-free image File:Sinner.jpg
 Thanks for uploading File:Sinner.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 21:19, 23 January 2015 (UTC)
