Deletion candidate image: Occupy Wall Street
This image I uploaded is indeed the original poster for the Occupy Wall Street event. I was first created and published by Adbusters magazine, and has been widely distributed ever since. It is not an image of my creation. —Scoutstr295 14:49, 3 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I never said it was your creation, but it looks like an image created by some user and uploaded to the internet. If it was published by Adbusters, then that needs to be cited somehow, but I couldn't find that image anywhere on the internet or otherwise. – Dream out loud (talk) 21:19, 3 October 2011 (UTC)

Re:SEPTA and substandard articles
Laid out, SEPTA, like the company we're writing about, has the worst articles I've seen of any public transportation system on Wikipedia. I've been working to turn NJ Transit (and to some degree) Metro-North and doing the research. Under my Erie Railroad research, which is more than just Wikipedia research, I've designated stations as "Case studies" on several criteria: History, Design, Years Existing, Community Changes, etc. Those are stations I work on cause I do the research. The sources are out there for most stations, you have just got to find them. :)

Now towards the station choices at hand. One thing to consider is that SEPTA doesn't exactly produce the best stations. I chose Cheltenham and West Trenton because they may not be major stations, but the history is long enough for both that they can sustain good articles. Marcus Hook I suggested because it is a major station on the R2 Newark. Cheltenham is personally my favorite of my choices because I did start working in the research department. Personally as an editor, I don't like the status quo stations like 30th Street or Market East. I like the suburban communities and their workings. As for the decommissioned stations, Nicetown and Shawmont are the top on my list.

In honesty, if we want any progress, I would seriously consider a WP:TRAIN/Philadelphia Public Transportation task force like we have up in New York. This needs to cover PATCO, SEPTA, NJ Transit's RIVER Line and the A.C. Line along with the Seashore Line. We should consider it. My thoughts.

Atlantic City Hilton vs ACH
What are you doing? It DOES NOT say Atlantic City Hilton on the website anymore, if you look everything says ACH. TheGoofyGolfer (talk) 04:25, 16 July 2011 (UTC)
 * You clearly did not look at the entire page. The copyright at the bottom says "© 2011 Atlantic City Hilton", under social networking it says "The Atlantic City Hilton Casino Resort on Facebook", and the page title in the browser reads "Atlantic City Hilton".  You need to be civil and stop trying to make a point.  I am going to revert the move and start a discussion so we can form a consensus on this just as any editors would do in this situation.  Forcibly arguing your point and reverting does not help.  – Dream out loud  (talk) 06:13, 16 July 2011 (UTC)

WP:Weasel words
Hello, Dream out loud. Regarding this edit by you, some of these words are not weasel words...and the others are clearly attributed. The comparison to the O. J. Simpson murder trial, for example? This is backed up by several reliable sources. I shouldn't have to name each and every one of the individuals who have compared this trial to the O. J. Simpson case, especially since it's too many to name (including the general public). The references do the talking for us; I certainly didn't add all of them for fun. And as for using the words "some," "most" and "others," it's the same thing. We cannot name every person. This is why Wikipedia does not say that the words "some" or "most" should never be used. Per WP:Weasel words, it says when they are used, "Claims about what people say, think, feel, or believe, and what has been shown, demonstrated, or proven should be clearly attributed." All of these things are clearly attributed. They are in the references, for anyone to check.

Strange thing is...I recently had a discussion on my talk page where myself and another editor are explaining weasel words and editorializing to someone else. Flyer22 (talk) 12:11, 17 July 2011 (UTC)
 * I did tweak two things that needed better attribution, and restored one comment that better backs up "Others" in one paragraph...but had been removed by an IP. Flyer22 (talk) 12:40, 17 July 2011 (UTC)

Death of Caylee Anthony -- thank you for the image
Also, I wanted to say thank you for the image. It was very much needed. See this deletion discussion:. And the brief aftermath discussion: Talk:Death of Caylee Anthony. Flyer22 (talk) 13:06, 17 July 2011 (UTC)


 * Concur - great image for the lede. Dream out loud, are you aware of any photos of Casey Anthony sitting in court during the trial that are in the public domain?  I am wondering if that might make a better image for the lede of the timeline daughter article rather than the October 2008 mug shot. Regards, AzureCitizen (talk) 01:55, 18 July 2011 (UTC)


 * Well there are tons of images of Casey and Caylee that are in the public domain. Unfortunately, the image I uploaded has been nominated for deletion because it was released in the public domain by the Florida State's Attorney Office and some users at Commons say that that office "has no right" to put those photos in public domain. – Dream out loud  (talk) 04:50, 18 July 2011 (UTC)


 * Major bummer. Another user already removed your photo from the lede on that rationale, so I've put in a placeholder photo for now until folks can figure out what's best.  Regardless, thanks for your efforts.AzureCitizen (talk) 23:38, 18 July 2011 (UTC)

Caylee article "enhancements"
You tried to discuss this on a Project page and apparently our discussion was forked elsewhere? It may not be important.

My point was that if comparison with OJ was allowable, it would be because someone scholarly had "done a study" and people were asked to rank OJ vs Caylee, (or whatever passes the researchers criteria in college/think tank), then and only then, can that be "compared." Lesser criteria might be allowable in other cases. Asia does appear larger than North America! :)

Anyway, thanks for raising this issue and tagging it. Hope you were able to make your point, which was important! Student7 (talk) 18:55, 23 July 2011 (UTC)

Hot Press review for Achtung Baby
I see your point about the review score not showing up on the archived copy of the article at Hot Press' website. However, I provided the link to the archived copy really only as a convenience link so the reader may consult the text of the article. I still believe a score was included as part of the original published review (see the atU2 archived copy of the article here). And I agree the x/12 review scale is kind of odd, but it's apparently been in use for a while (see Boy, The Unforgettable Fire, Passengers, The Best of 80-90, and Million Dollar Hotel soundtrack). I doubt these scores would have been fabricated and added to all these atU2-archived review articles, too, so I would tend to believe the Achtung Baby score just isn't included in the Hot Press article archives.

File:New York City Ground Zero map of damage.jpg - deletion
08:23, 28. Sep. 2011 Túrelio deleted „File:New York City Ground Zero map of damage.jpg“ ‎ (Copyright violation: Photograph entirely of a copyrighted map)

I do not understand, why this photo was immediately deleted without any prior discussion. It was a photo of a huge poster, which in the year 2006 was positioned on public ground in New York city in front of the ground zero site. It was most likely produced by or at least on behalf of the government and its public exhibition was apparently authorized by the goverment. No source and copyright information were found on or near the poster. How do you know that this map is copyrighted? By whom? --NorbertNagel (talk) 19:47, 28 September 2011 (UTC)--Norbert Nagel 19:35, 28 September 2011 (UTC)
 * A discussion was not necessary because the image was a copyright violation. All creative works are copyrighted, regardless of whether or not copyright information is displayed.  For example, if you create an original painting, it is copyrighted by you.  There's not need to display copyright info.  Unless you explicitly state that your painting is in public domain, then it is subject to copyright. I am guessing that the map was created by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, which is not a government agency, but government-created works are still subject to copyright, unless it was produced by the federal government (see WP:Copyrights).  I don't know what you mean by "the government".  New York City government?  New York state government? U.S. federal government? If it is a federal government-created work, then there needs to be a link or some kind of proof that it was created by the federal government.  If it was created by another government, then it is only free if they explicitly stated it somehow.  Otherwise, the map was not free.   Read WP:FAQ/Copyright for more info. – Dream out loud  (talk) 21:58, 28 September 2011 (UTC)

Re: Occupy Wall Street poster image
No, I couldn't find a better link, the page seems broken to me or already link rotten, I could only access the image through a direct link. It's fair use either way, so I don't see much of a problem or a need to verify how restrictive the copyright is. And sorry, no, I don't feel like being less sarcastic when dealing with copyright paranoia issues. Maybe somebody who understands our byzantine fair use policies can feel the rationale better. If not, tough. The protesters who campaign against big corps should learn to use free licenses. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; talk to me 09:00, 3 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Ok, well in that case, I'm just doing to nominate the image for deletion since no one seems to know exactly where it came from. – Dream out loud (talk) 20:40, 3 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Well, there IS a link. But yeah, source should be better. Anyway, I wanted to note that the tone of my post above might have been a bit off; I was writing it around 4:30am. Thanks for your efforts, --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; talk to me 23:33, 3 October 2011 (UTC)

rugrats image
Hey there. I'm not 100% sure if you will be able to get hold of an image, but I managed to get an image released by Six Entertainment for The Human Centipede (First Sequence) by e-mailing the producer of the film and explaining how there was a chance that the article might be on the front page, and how it would be really helpful if they could kindly release an image under a free license. I made sure I mentioned how many page views the main page gets each day and how much exposure the article would get from a main page appearance. I also politely pointed out that releasing a low resolution image (such as in your case File:Rugrats Chanukah.jpg) will not harm their commercial interests, but will massively benefit the article and also make it more likely that the article does make it to the main page.

I had a look online and the best e-mail address I could find was webmaster@klaskycsupo.com, it can't hurt to fire an e-mail off to that address. At the very least they might be able to give you the correct e-mail address. There are some good tips on how to request permission for images to be released at Requesting copyright permission. It would be cool if the article could get onto the main page. I think it would get a lot of readers and it would be effective in teaching non-jewish readers a great deal about Chanukah too. Good luck with the nomination! Coolug (talk) 20:03, 8 November 2011 (UTC)

List of SEPTA Regional Rail stations
I see that you're working on a List of SEPTA Regional Rail stations. I just started working on my own this week, and it includes parameters of the List of Metro-North Railroad stations. Perhaps we should combine elements from each others lists. I've also got other lists planned for SEPTA rapid transit and trolley stations. I'll even establish a Category:Lists of Pennsylvania railway stations category once they're all done, or maybe even before then. DanTD (talk) 18:47, 27 July 2012 (UTC)

Airport names
More discussion on airport names. I am contacting you, and all past participants in recent discussions on this issue, because there is now a new RFC.

WP:HYPHEN says that proper names get hyphens, like Jones-Smith (or, as the example says "John Lennard-Jones". Are airport names any different? If I take a bicycle trip from Paris to Orly and write an article about it, or someone else does, it would correctly be called Paris–Orly trip with an en dash and trip not capitalized. But if I create a bicycle and call it the Paris-Orly Flyer that becomes a proper name and is capitalized. Is not the same true for airport names? Please see the discussions at WP:MOS, Talk:Seattle–Tacoma International Airport and the recently opened RfC at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Airports. Apteva (talk) 22:07, 25 September 2012 (UTC)


 * That's misleading, Apteva. WP:HYPHEN says this:
 * "'Hyphenation also occurs in bird names such as Great Black-backed Gull, and in proper names such as Great Black-backed Gull and Wilkes-Barre.'"
 * Some proper names "get hyphens", but that does not mean no proper name gets an en dash. "Are airport names any different?" Any different from what, exactly? From the default naming assumption that is mentioned at WP:DASH? That is the question facing the RFC to which you refer. An especially ill-posed one, in my opinion, with poor structure and unsupported preliminary assumptions.
 * PLEASE NOTE: discussions do not occur at places like WP:XXX . That is not a talkpage. Try this instead: WT:MOS. I see you making that mistake a lot.
 * By the way, are you canvassing for that RFC? See WP:CANVAS.

Disambiguation link notification for September 29
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of United States rapid transit systems by ridership, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Bombardier (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

SEPTA station lists
How is the source for List of SEPTA Rapid transit stations unreliable? It shows the extended name right there. Also I tried to find the 2nd Street-Penn's Landing, but Google Maps doesn't have that name anymore. I also see you decided to add your version of the List of SEPTA Regional Rail stations, and I was hoping you'd get back to me on combining the elements of your version and mine. I like your coverage of the old "R" designations, but I also like my coverage of former railroads and slight histories. -User:DanTD (talk) 10:37, 5 October 2012 (UTC)
 * A photograph from a fan site is by no means a reliable source. That would be equal to you taking a picture of something, uploading it to the internet, and citing it.  It's a form of original research and if you want to know what a reliable source is, then you should read WP:RS.  On another note, you need to add citations to your lists in general.  Creating an entire list article without citations is entirely inappropriate, especially for an editor who has been on this site for over six years.  As far as the Regional Rail station list that you created, I don't see what information there needs to be added to the one I made.  A "notes" column really doesn't have a place in a list like this.  Trivial information should to left to the article itself and not to a list of stations, since there is no limit to what kind of information could be added there.  Anything additional important information can be added using footnotes, which I have done.  – Dream out loud  (talk) 01:38, 8 October 2012 (UTC)
 * I'd say even if it is from a fansite and the evidence is clear, it should be enough. With citations, I take what I can get, and I can't always get what I need. Regarding the regional rail list, if the info I have on my version is trivial, then so is the info from the List of Long Island Rail Road stations and List of Metro-North Railroad stations, and lists like that. One problem I'm having is with the rail connections, Almost every time I try to add them the right way, it throws the whole chart out of alignment. The one for Ardmore (SEPTA and Amtrak station) still needs to be fixed there. ---User:DanTD (talk) 14:50, 8 October 2012 (UTC)
 * I modeled the list off of List of MBTA Commuter Rail stations, which is a featured list. For the LIRR list, it has an extra column for dates and alternative names, but not a general "notes" column.  Not too many stations have had different names over the years, so it really wouldn't be necessary to add, as far as adding opening dates, this type of information would involve much research since the stations are so old, and I don't think it adds much to the list.  The MBTA featured list doesn't have either of these columns. – Dream out loud  (talk) 17:00, 8 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Well, you have the connections list, which would've been among the general notes in my version, so I can appreciate that. I kind of wish you could've replied to me on this earlier. How do you feel about adding former stations, though? The MBTA Commuter Rail stations list has a segment for future stations, and the LIRR list has one for former stations. The Metro-North list doesn't though(even though there are former stations in the post-Penn Central era), but it does have a list for former lines. -User:DanTD (talk) 21:58, 8 October 2012 (UTC)
 * I apologize for not replying to you earlier, but I haven't been editing much lately. As far as adding former stations, I think that should be a separate article.  There are too many of them to count, many of which were close before the Regional Rail division even existed. – Dream out loud  (talk) 15:38, 9 October 2012 (UTC)

Main page appearance: U2 3D
This is a note to let the main editors of U2 3D know that the article will be appearing as today's featured article on January 19, 2013. You can view the TFA blurb at Today's featured article/January 19, 2013. If you prefer that the article appear as TFA on a different date, or not at all, please ask featured article director or his delegates, , and , or start a discussion at Wikipedia talk:Today's featured article/requests. If the previous blurb needs tweaking, you can change it—following the instructions at Today's featured article/requests/instructions. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page. The blurb as it stands now is below:

U2 3D is a 2008 3D concert film featuring rock band U2 performing during the Vertigo Tour in 2006. The first live-action digital 3D film, it contains performances of 14 songs, including tracks from How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb, the album supported by the tour. The concert footage includes political and social statements made during the shows. The project was created to experiment with a new type of 3D film technology pioneered by producer Steve Schklair. After considering shooting American football games in 3D, Schklair's company 3ality Digital decided to create a concert film with U2. The band were hesitant to participate, but agreed to the project mainly as a technological experiment rather than a profit-making venture. Although set in Buenos Aires, U2 3D was shot at seven concerts across Latin America, and two in Australia. After a preview screening at the 2007 Cannes Film Festival, U2 3D premiered at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival and was shown at over 600 theaters internationally following its release. It peaked at number 19 at the United States box office, earned over $26 million internationally (ranking as one of the highest-grossing concert films), and won several awards.

Article deletion
My article about Aaron L. Smith is deleted because of no importance about the topic? I said he was the co-founder of The Graveyard Carz TV series in the very first sentence. I also provided reliable sources that links to his homepage. How does that not discuss the importance of the article? Wethar555 (talk) 05:23, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
