Why are you deleting the cast of characters from "Agatha Christie's Poirot"?!
I was visiting the article called List of Agatha Christie's Poirot episodes, and I noticed that the cast of characters are deleted from Series 13 and replaced with episode summaries. And now you intend to do the same to the other series from 1-12! Why are you doing this? --Angeldeb82 (talk) 16:10, 30 January 2015 (UTC)

Removing AfD template

List of Call the Midwife episodes
Just to let you know, I've reverted your addition of 28-day viewing figures for the most recent season. As all the previous seasons use only 7-day figures (as that's all that the BARB lists), using 28-day figures for one season only distorts the relative viewership for that one season........... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 10:51, 8 May 2015 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Rebel Heart Tour Poster, from the official Madonna store, July 2015.jpg


A tag has been placed on File:Rebel Heart Tour Poster, from the official Madonna store, July 2015.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.

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. Widr (talk) 07:50, 6 July 2015 (UTC)

Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to Good for You (song). This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Iknow23 (talk) 02:46, 22 September 2015 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

December 2015
Hello Kobsters1. Your addition to And Then There Were None (TV series) has had to be removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.


 * You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and a cited source. You can read about this at Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
 * Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
 * Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Copyrights. You may also want to review Copy-paste.
 * If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See Donating copyrighted materials.
 * In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
 * Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you can, but please follow the steps in Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. –Dark Cocoa Frosting (talk) 12:35, 24 December 2015 (UTC)

Copyright concerns at List of Mrs. Brown's Boys episodes
Hi Kobsters, I noticed that you added back some episode summaries at List of Mrs. Brown's Boys episodes. The first one, beginning "During a party to celebrate the baptism of Dermot and Maria's triplets" looks a lot like it was copied or closely paraphrased from this source, which is why I removed it originally. In that same edit, I removed content for "Mammy's Inflation", beginning, "Agnes is disappointed with Cathy who has decided to undergo surgery to impress her new boyfriend, Professor Clowne" because it was identical to content found here. In this edit you added back a summary for this episode, but it is verbatim with content found here. I also notice that content you added back for "Mammy's Christamas Punch" can be found here and "Mammy Swings" can be found here.

Do you have any reasonable explanation for why you have restored these potential copyright violations to the article? Copyright violations cannot be tolerated, and if your solution for missing content is to copy it from other sites, that's simply not acceptable. Since you didn't provide any explanation with your edit or participate in the open talk page discussion, your rationale is not clear to me, which is why I'm giving you an opportunity to explain. If you do not provide a rational explanation, I will have to strongly consider interrupting your editing privileges. Thanks. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 21:44, 2 January 2016 (UTC)


 * Hi Cyphoidbomb, I'm sorry about that. I was adding episode descriptions found on IMDB made by users which I thought was un-copyrighted. I did not realise that these users were copying material from the BBC website. Kobsters1 (talk) 22:12, 2 January 2016 (UTC)

Dates must remain verifiable
Hi there, regarding this edit, dates still need to be verifiable, so removing references that help with that, isn't a great plan. Episode names and information about director/writers is a bit of a different story, because the primary source, i.e. the episode itself, can be used to glean that information. Original air date, however, is not included in the primary source. Thanks, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 20:36, 8 January 2016 (UTC)


 * Kobsters, I'm unclear on why you removed references for air dates in this edit. Could you please explain this? As noted directly above, all content must remain verifiable, so unless the links don't work (in which case, adding archives would be a great substitute) I don't see a valid reason for removing the references. Feel free to reply here. Thanks. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 19:58, 23 January 2016 (UTC)
