Movellans
Hi there! I spotted your creation of this article. I hope you don't mind the extensive edits I made to bring it more in line with the style of the other Doctor Who race articles. I also removed the "future of the Movellans" bit because it's really too speculative (and besides, it's highly unlikely we'll ever be seeing the Rasta androids again). Please continue to contribute to the other pages where you can, and if you are so inclined, consider joinining us at WikiProject Doctor Who. --khaosworks 18:47, May 4, 2005 (UTC)


 * Excellent. It was so hard trying to find a picture of a Movellan, even. Look forward to seeing the gun. --khaosworks 00:46, May 5, 2005 (UTC)

Quarks and Shalka
Hi again. I don't mean to rain on your efforts, but we should only really create pages for races and things which are notable. The Shalka, for example, only appeared in one serial and have had no impact aside from that, so that information (which is really part of the synopsis for the serial) should be part of the Scream of the Shalka article itself and not a separate article. I hope you see what I mean - otherwise, we'll wind up with small stubby articles for all sorts of trivial things, which we don't want. Movellans are different because they were mentioned again in subsequent Dalek serials, and Quarks because they've appeared in other spin-off media and people still remember thnem, but the Shalka are probably too minor to merit their own space. Consider transferring the information over to Scream and then redirecting Shalka to that page. --khaosworks 19:18, Jun 7, 2005 (UTC)

Drax
Unfortunately, yes. He doesn't appear anywhere else, and when the synopsis for The Armageddon Factor is ultimately written, all the information will be there. He comes in, he's an old university mate, he calls the Doctor "Theta Sigma", he helps the Doctor. What else is there? --khaosworks 04:23, Jun 14, 2005 (UTC)


 * If you look at the other characters were have here - all of them appeared in something at least beyond the confines of the initial stories they appeared in: even Count Grendel showed up in a short story, and the Face of Boe was mentioned in three episodes. One of the few exceptions is Pete Tyler, but he has a very significant effect on Rose's character and motivations. The Editor (Doctor Who) and the Jagrafess are also one-shots, but the events they participated in spread over from The Long Game to Bad Wolf. Think about significance and notability when thinking about what to add. --khaosworks 04:33, Jun 14, 2005 (UTC)


 * From the TV series? Not so much. Off the top of my head there's still Sil (from Vengeance on Varos and Mindwarp) and Sabalom Glitz (The Trial of a Time Lord and Dragonfire) that are still article-less.


 * There's also still stuff from the spin-off media that we haven't dealt with, like the book companions and the comic strip companions. And really, the synopses of a lot of the serials need fleshing out, and I've been trying to encourage people to go work on the stub articles rather than creating new stubs or new articles about minor items or characters. Look at Category:Doctor Who stubs and see what needs improving. There's a lot of work to be done before we think about new stuff. --khaosworks 04:46, Jun 14, 2005 (UTC)

Anglican userbox
Hi, it may interest you to know there is now an Anglican userbox. It's. --Angr (t·c) 09:51, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
 * I don't think so, because it's a sort of sub-template of User:UBX/Religion. It's probably best to start a separate User box frame, which you can do by putting  at the top and   at the bottom. In between those two you can put as many user boxes as you like. (You don't have to specify a number, like you do with the Babel frame.) --Angr (t·c) 20:59, 28 December 2005 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Sidearm.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Sidearm.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this:.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Thank you. -- Longhair 22:44, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

Anglicanism and the Anglican Communion
Hello! I noticed that you have identified yourself as an Anglican, and so I thought that you may be interested in checking out a new WikiProject - WikiProject Anglicanism.

Olive
Ah, you're actively watching the Olive articles? Hope all the new stuff checks out.

One thing I'm trying to figure out is where to find a good image of the original lineup. The problem is that the web was quite cluttered at the time when they got their main media coverage (so nobody knows where many images actually came from), and image quality was not as much of a concern back then. Do you know of anything? –Unint 02:36, 19 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Update: I eventually found this site. It actually looks to be the most comprehensive site still up. However, given that .lv is Latvia's domain, everything takes forever to load.

Kitty Pryde
Hiya. Actually, the "Publication history" section is required per WikiProject Comics exemplar, and needs to be filled out, not deleted. Thanks!--Tenebrae 13:47, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Publication history

The real world history of the character. This section details who wrote the character, what series they've had or made long runs of appearances in, their longevity within comics and any inspirations for the character. This section should focus mainly on the comic, but include passing mentions of all other-media versions, and acknowledge where these versions have impacted on the comic version. The publication details of any reboots and the input of any creators into the character would also be detailed here.

Image:BadmarshandShri.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:BadmarshandShri.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the image description page and edit it to add , without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
 * 2) On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Orphaned fair use image (Image:NatWalker.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:NatWalker.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 orphaned, meaning that it is 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 under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Badmarshandshri-signs.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Badmarshandshri-signs.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. 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 it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 18:57, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Image:Sidearm.jpg
A tag has been placed on Image:Sidearm.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on  explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Fair use rationale for File:Olive-extravirgin.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Olive-extravirgin.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use.

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 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box.

TripleJ Hottest 100
Wikipedia isn't a crystal ball, yes. However, did you actually read the references to the winner of the Triple J Hottest 100, 2009?

From the Crikey Page: "Sorry to ruin your Triple J Hottest 100 BBQs folks, but it seems the ABC has inadvertently leaked the winner of its popular annual poll on the ABC Shop website."

From the ABC page: "It appears the ABC has accidentally leaked the winner of this year's Triple J Hottest 100."

The winner is the artist/song at number 1. These are both good sources, especially the ABC one. Can you explain your problem with including this referenced information? 67.183.16.32 (talk) 00:46, 26 January 2010 (UTC)

I can't see the word "Frontrunner" anywhere on both sources. The word "frontrunners" appears... but that is in the phrase: "frontrunners of the UK nu-folk movement." Referring to their place in the Top 100, the word "winner" is used in both references. 67.183.16.32 (talk) 00:57, 26 January 2010 (UTC)

Which screenshot? The current page: http://www.crikey.com.au/2010/01/22/oz-day-spoiler-abc-leaks-hottest-100-victor/ Does not use the wording you describe.67.183.16.32 (talk) 01:03, 26 January 2010 (UTC)

The polls closed on the 18th of January. The date on the webpage is the 22nd of January. This is after the close date. 67.183.16.32 (talk) 01:14, 26 January 2010 (UTC)

Which Article? The wiki page currently says the polls closed on the 18th. Please be more precise about your problem with the references. 67.183.16.32 (talk) 01:24, 26 January 2010 (UTC)

Are you being deliberately obtuse? I mentioned that the wiki article said that polls closed on the 18th. The reference is dated the 22nd. The 22nd is after the 18th. Can you _please_ be more specific about your problem with the references. 67.183.16.32 (talk) 01:28, 26 January 2010 (UTC)

Your memory is incorrect. The referenced page: http://www.abc.net.au/triplej/hottest100/vote.htm states that the voting ended "Sunday 18th January 2009 - midnight AEST". It's the first sentence of the voting rules. In other words, the dates are indeed correct, and the leak happened after voting finished. 67.183.16.32 (talk) 01:39, 26 January 2010 (UTC)

Hatnotes and Black Swan
I replaced the extra hat-note on the above article. I can't find anything forbidding two hat-notes (although there may be something), but my reasoning is as such; the article has received a great deal of interest lately, and I suspect that people are not after the bird, as awesome as they are. These new readers are after the movie. If this were likely to remain the case it would be better to move the whole article and have the dab on the namespace, but there is no way of knowing if this will be the case in a few months, when the film isn't "current news". At present it is best to keep the article where it is, but also help people looking for the film to get there quickly. Sabine's Sunbird  talk  02:25, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
