Civility
In a recent edit, you called Betacommand a 'piece of shit'. Just because you used an acronym doesn't change the fact that it's a personal attack, incivil, and has no place on this project. I understand that you're frustrated, but that's an unacceptable way to respond. Please use better judgment in the future and take a moment to review the WP:NPA policy. - C HAIRBOY (☎) 04:09, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

Pieces of April
Hello! I'm curious why you arbitrarily changed some but not all of the awards and nominations listed to bold face print. If you intended the bold faced names to represent winners and the remainder to represent nominees, there was no explanation alerting readers to this fact. I have reverted it to the way it was, since there was no confusion with that format. Thank you. MovieMadness (talk) 17:36, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

Writers Guild of America Award
Hello again! I just added data to this article. Because you did such a terrific job cleaning up the Daytime Serials section, I didn't want to delete it, but do you agree it's a little confusing? I can't tell who won and who was a nominee. And I don't think it makes sense to include just two years, in two different formats, one detailed, the other just a list of titles. As I commented on the talk page, there was too much emphasis on soap operas in the original article; what's there now even seems to be more than necessary. Do you think the section should be removed entirely? I did delete the section devoted to As the World Turns nominations, because it seemed to have been added by a rabid fan of the show. It certainly wasn't pertinent to the article. Thanks for your feedback. MovieMadness (talk) 18:40, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Hello, and thanks for your response. Re: awards and nominations, the Wikipedia Film Project surprisingly has no guidelines re: their format. I adopted the one I used for Pieces of April for all articles I have created or extensively edited, and nobody has commented about the format, so I suspect it's not a major issue with most people who contribute to film articles. I've seen all the formats you've mentioned and found some confusing, others OK. I think if a first-time user of Wikipedia looks at the way I've listed them, there will be no question as to which were nominations and which were winners.
 * As far as the Writers Guild Awards, since you agree the separate section for Daytime Serials isn't necessary, I'm going to remove it. I didn't want to do so without getting your feedback since you worked so hard on it. Thanks again for writing! MovieMadness (talk) 13:27, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

Queens of the Stone Age Taskforce
I'd like to invite you to join the newly-formed taskforce Queens of the Stone Age|Queens of the Stone Age. There's alot of Queens of the Stone Age-related articles on Wikipedia that could use a little attention, and I hope this taskforce can help organize an effort to improve them. So please, take a look and if you like what you see, help us get this taskforce off the ground and a few Queens of the Stone Age pages into the front ranks of Wikipedia articles. Thanks! --Be Black Hole Sun (talk) 10:57, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

The Ting Tings
The italicized dates aren't dates per se, but indications of the name of a given episode of the show. Since these kind of shows' episodes have no name, they have a specific date that works as a title. The rest, titles of shows are perfectly italicizable!... G.-M. Cupertino (talk) 13:43, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

Re:Outstanding Wikipedian
Thanks! Believe me, the lack of edit summaries, ignoring my summaries, etc has been aggravating me too. But to be fair, you've only seen the polite posts to talk pages and such. You haven't seen the cursing and teeth grinding that has been going on in front of my computer. :) Dismas |(talk) 22:31, 9 October 2008 (UTC)

Guidelines
I ignore them because guidelines are just that, mere guidelines, they're not absolute rules. At least is how I understand the meaning of the word guidelines. And beside, who would ever read all that, such a long list of mere recomendations? Certainly neither of us, and others, who have other things to do!... Our mistake, I guess. That's why they passed by me!... How could I know? If there is no rule to determine if titles of episodes are to be added, and if they're so rarelly added because of the rubbished job of many editors, how can one know there was a rule for it? Since I've never seen anyone else correcting this kind of stuff, either the tiles or the listing of episodes, if I've almost allways seen them the way I put them and only one or two people complainting without even saying why, if everybody else I've seen do it that way too, it was to be assumed it to be a personal chriteria or a preference rather than an absolute rule, specially since most of people don't even invoke the Manual of Style, and when someone actually does it we barely notice. They should've got another title, rules instead of guidelines. And because it looks awful and there is no distinction between shows and episodes nor any reason to distinguish them. Unless they've changed it at some point, like they (who?, who rules this?) did with dates!... It's harder to read, specially for people who have a hard time to do it. When one starts reading will probably prefer to read the latest works first and then go to the past, I never thought up you had so many uptight rules, how could I even think I couldn't pass without reading them? I knew there were some rules, I generally write as I see it being done, but the absence of information concerning things like titles of episodes make me assume a wrong way of displaying them, and I never thought they had rules for such petty and infime details!... It's not like I don't like rules, I just don't assume there are rules for everything, and that they're more abstract than they actually are, since other kind of rules, such as the rules about notability and sourcing are much more abstract than these, the reason why I supposed they were abstract too, and above that, mere indications. That's why I didn't even get the trouble of reading, since I was previously assuming that you were interpreting an abstract guideline rather than imposing an actual absolute rule. I know now that I was mistaken. G.-M. Cupertino (talk) 12:50, 9 October 2008 (UTC)

PS
I've looked upon other articles in order to make mine because since so many people are so quick in altering the smallest mistakes I assumed that, despite knowing that Administrators and Editors don't allways have the time to correct everything everywhere, someone would have corrected it at some point in some given article, and if almost no article is altered in a given way, and sometimes is corrected by Administrators who leave the rest as it is, I assume that things are all right. G.-M. Cupertino (talk) 12:52, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

Outstanding Wikipedian
Hi, just thought I'd add that I admire your level-headedness and politeness when dealing with GM-Cupertino. I seem to have had the same issues as you with him, and it's all the more frustrating as he(?) doesn't seem to leave any edit summaries, nor explain why he undoes any of my edits, especially as they're mostly against Wikipedia policy anyway, and I've even kindly but specifically asked him to do so.

Anyway, thankfully I think an admin has gotten through and the article concerned has finally been returned to the correct wikipedia format. Keep up the good work! Feudonym (talk) 21:31, 9 October 2008 (UTC)


 * I did read the summaries, I just didn't read the indications like per MOS. When I saw them, and since I don't have the time to check it out, I assumed it was something else rather than the mention to the Manual of Style or anything else. As I said once before, I don't write summaries because they often correspond to minor edits or to self-explanatory ones. Since I didn't knew they were referred to actual rules - per MOS is Chinese to me and I didn't even read what the hell was it - I never justified my unedits, and for that very reason I never "learned" before to accept what I thought to be a personal preference as the actual rule, but I do now!... I just ask, please, not to alter rules so frequently as they're doing here!... G.-M. Cupertino (talk) 12:52, 10 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Hey, you were the first to use capital letters, I used them to answer that in an ironic way!... By the way, my English is better on longer texts because I'm not good on smaller talk, thank you very much!... Beside, your justifications to edits were so far behind the dozens of other edits that I didn't even notice who the hell did them, if it was the same person, and much less why!... G.-M. Cupertino (talk) 13:16, 10 October 2008 (UTC)


 * About the linking of common English words: when it comes to a film or television character without a name it is most likely that a page about that character won't ever be created for lack of notability. However, the linking of common English words that define that character will allow to illustrate the page and the information over the film or show. It's not like I've ever linked most of those words outside that context. Except, of course, for such words as professions which apparently are absurdly seen as non relevant!... G.-M. Cupertino (talk) 13:57, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

Spaceman
I have reverted several changes you made to the disambiguation page Spaceman, in keeping with the style guide MOS:DAB. Firstly, piping should usually be avoided on dab pages, and should only be used to format titles, while keeping any disambiguating phrases like (film) or (song) visible. Secondly, entries should generally only be added if there is an existing article with an ambiguous title (e.g., if the Killers song you added had its own article). Red links (articles which don't yet exist) may sometimes be included, but only if they are likely to be created in the future (typically, this means that multiple articles link to the nonexistent article. You can check this by clicking on the redlink and then clicking the "what links here" link.) — Swpbτ • c 19:07, 19 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Please note that disambiguation pages should only have one navigable link per entry, unlike articles. This is established consensus - you can read more at WP:MOSDAB. Thanks, — Swpbτ • c 21:09, 8 November 2008 (UTC)


 * The common standard to determine whether a non-existent article is likely to be created is whether other articles, besides the disambiguation page, link to it. There are a few articles that link to Spacemen (magazine), which is why I left it. I've removed the link to D'yer Wanna Be a Spaceman?, because the redirect has no other links to it. As far as the other entries, MOS:D allows for linking to sections within articles: "If a topic does not have an article of its own, but is mentioned within another article, then a link can be included to that article...It is often useful to link to the relevant section of that page (using the #anchor notation) and conceal that by making it a piped link." These links are helpful, because the target has actual content on the ambiguous term, unlike an album track listing. — Swpbτ • c 14:38, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

West Ryder Pauper Lunatic Asylum
Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you recently tried to give a different title by copying its content and pasting it into. This is known as a "cut and paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history which is needed for attribution and various other purposes. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page. This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other articles that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Cut and paste move repair holding pen.

Insight reply
This was a topic of extended discussion at WikiProject Autos, and we ended up formally adding text to the infobox image standards at WP:CARPIX that makes it clear that no particular generation needs to be illustrated in the top infobox. Note that that infobox lists production as 2000-2006 and 2010-present -- that means that anything in that time span is appropriate for that infobox. In other words, the Wikipedia article is about the life of the vehicle, not just the most recent version.

Also, it's almost never helpful to have the same photo appear twice at the expense of another. IFCAR (talk) 12:02, 11 June 2010 (UTC)

Collaborative news on quippd
Hey, I noticed that you had recently edited the Park 51 article, and I hoped that you could help out on another collaborative community edited project.

I run quippd, a collaboratively edited social news site, which mixes elements of Wikis, social networking, and social news sites. You can get some more information about what we are doing at: http://quippd.com/about/intro

Basically, we want to get good coverage on news stories, collaboratively edited, like Wikipedia. We are trying to take the ideas of WikiFactCheck -- to make news less biased and speedier (unlike something like Wikinews).

I hope you check us out -- and feel free to contact me with any questions, comments, or concerns.

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

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

For well-established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 20:47, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

No Proof!
I've seen this paragraph being added to Vintage TV's entry:

"In March 2012, during a series of UK press interviews, a number of former staff members, including some of its presenters announced that they had retained a high profile firm of media lawyers and were joining forces to issue a number of both high court and county court proceedings against the owner of Vintage TV."

What does it mean? what presenters? this is a great channel and i love it. I've checked with some friends in the press and they don't know anything about it. why don't you identify yourself if this is true? SO verify it! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cleveld (talk • contribs) 13:05, 12 April 2012 (UTC)

Hi there FEUDONYM, AL from Portugal here,

i am sorry for my reversions in this player's article, now i'll "defend" myself: 1 - i thought that after mentioning "goal" a few inches to the left, we wouldn't need the word again; 2 - i try not to overuse in the comma department.

Adding copyrighted info to The Wrong Mans
...Basically, can you please stop doing it already? :)

I'm not sure how familiar you are with Wiki's copyright policy, but short version: it is--understandably--hyper-sensitive about even the hint of plagiarism, let alone anything as blatant as what you've been doing, and thus the directive on encountering same is instant removal. (Doesn't help that blurbs of this type by their nature take a highly promotional, informal tone that's inappropriate for any encyclopedia entry.) Simply leaving the material in place on the assumption that "Ehhh, somebody'll come along and rewrite it" just isn't going to cut it, I'm afraid. If you're that anxious to fill in the gap, you're going to have to put it in your own words--not, nota bene, a slightly rejiggered version of a press release's words--to begin with.

National varieties of English
Hello. In a recent edit to the page Vinita Nair, you changed one or more words or styles from one national variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to respect national varieties of English in Wikipedia articles.

For a subject exclusively related to the United Kingdom (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. For something related to another English-speaking country, such as Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, India, or Pakistan use the variety of English used there. For an international topic, use the form of English that the original author of the article used.

In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to another, even if you don't normally use the version in which the article is written. Respect other people's versions of English. They, in turn, should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Manual of Style. If you have any questions about this, you can ask me on my talk page or visit the help desk. Thank you. Elizium23 (talk) 04:14, 17 January 2021 (UTC)

Edit summaries
Hello. I have noticed that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. Thanks!

Agreed - thanks for pointing out and will do so in future. Feudonym (talk) 23:41, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
