Happy New Year!
 Dear, HAPPY NEW YEAR !!! Thank you for the kind thoughts and for all your excellent work. Last year was a hard one, both physically, thanks to medical ailments, and on Wikipedia, thanks to a plethora of Wikitrolls. Colleagues like you make staying here worthwhile. Here's to a better year to all! --Tenebrae (talk) 22:38, 2 January 2015 (UTC)

Scarlett Johansson image
You're right in that the image of ScarJo is great! It's just that it originally came from Getty, so Greg Razzi had no right to set the license on the image to the Creative Commons. Tough luck.... Tabercil (talk) 23:55, 5 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Boo, that's highly disappointing! Well good eye! Thanks though :) LADY LOTUS • TALK 01:39, 6 January 2015 (UTC)

Morgan Freeman
Would you please answer me on the talk page instead? You are not making any efforts in establishing a consensus (responding by edit summaries). I've stated my reasons why your article is questionable. Please answer there. Callmemirela ( talk ) 19:56, 10 January 2015 (UTC)

I have noticed that you have made attempts on deleting Freeman's credit on Now You See Me: The Second Act. Pardon me if I am wrong, but are you relying on the Internet Movie Database? If you are, I suggest that you read this essay, Citing IMDb. Again if I am wrong, my apologies.Hitcher vs. Candyman (talk) 23:03, 12 January 2015 (UTC)


 * , no I'm not relying on IMDb and I am very well aware of that essay as I have used it to remove IMDb as references from articles. It's the fact that he hasn't been confirmed for that role. I feel like the majority of the articles stating he's coming back his role are just assuming he's coming back. LADY LOTUS • TALK 12:32, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

Moïse Lévy de Benzion
Please don't remove links and then say the linked article is an orphan. Philafrenzy (talk) 12:56, 22 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Well here's my question: is it still considered an orphan if the only links are when she's linked in a reference and not linked in the actual article? I removed them to see if those were the ones that linked to her, sorry I forgot to undo my edit :/ LADY LOTUS • TALK 13:03, 22 January 2015 (UTC)
 * I don't know for sure but I think probably not. In any case, since she is linked from a number of other articles, she is quite well linked in fact. I know, I added several of the links. There are other ways of testing such things. Philafrenzy (talk) 13:06, 22 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Ok, well thank you :) LADY LOTUS • TALK 13:07, 22 January 2015 (UTC)

List of jewellery designers
Hi - just wanted to say thanks for tidying up the list, I did adjust some of your changes as personally it really sets my teeth on edge when a long(ish) list in 2 columns is followed by a long list in 3 columns. (probably an OCD thing) and I think the entire Uzbek section was deleted in honest error, but generally no objection to most of the edits you made, so thanks. I did notice Anna Jones and the Benedict Cumberbatch link, but figured if it was anything fishy you'd be on it soon enough. Mabalu (talk) 14:10, 3 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Also, I think I'll implement some of your ideas on List of fashion designers too, so thanks again. Mabalu (talk) 14:15, 3 February 2015 (UTC)
 * lol no problem with the 2:3 column, I totally understand that! :) If you add back the empty Uzbek section, could you tag it with a "empty section" tag? I almost messaged you about the Anna James link since the user linked her in those articles that you edit. It's most likely a sock, annoying, but I took them and another to SPI. The list is really nice, thanks again :) LADY LOTUS • TALK 14:21, 3 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Actually, now that I look at it, I must have done something accidentally to delete "Rosalina Lydster" from the Uzbek, when I did the preview the section was empty, so my bad! :) LADY LOTUS • TALK 14:31, 3 February 2015 (UTC)
 * No, Rosalina Lydster was my mistake - I think you overlooked Jacob Arabo under Uzbekistan, so not an empty section as such. When I originally added it back I made a formatting error, so fixed it. Have implemented the edits to List of Fashion Designers and it does look/read a lot better - I've gone for either 2 or 4 columns there as it lines up tidier than mixing 2/3/4 Mabalu (talk) 14:34, 3 February 2015 (UTC)

Isnalok
Hi! I see you tagged User:Instalok as a sockpuppet of (diff). Although it is proven that he used multiple accounts, I believe he is not actually a sockpuppet of Fairyspit. He was confirmed as such in the Fairyspit case, but later a separate case was opened: WP:Sockpuppet investigations/Instalok. In this case, it was concluded, that although using the same IP range, Instalok is probably not a sock of Fairyspit (see: WP:Sockpuppet_investigations/Instalok/Archive). Their edits and level of English language knowledge are quite different. I believe you should revert your edit.  Vanjagenije  (talk)  18:55, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Done :) LADY LOTUS • TALK 19:27, 23 February 2015 (UTC)

Fairyspit
You might be interested in this, which randomly appeared on my user talk today. I was baffled until I visited Talk:Sophie Hunter. I will support you if you open an SPI or seek administrative action. --Dr. Fleischman (talk) 06:13, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
 * , thank you for the heads up. This is the most persistent sock I've ever encountered. They admit to making socks but then try to justify it by basically saying that we don't know how to edit properly. They have a huge obsession with Benedict Cumberbatch and anyone associated. I've asked them nicely to stop socking and if anything to go to a talk page and make an edit request but instead they spam a bunch of editors with the same request to see who will edit for them. Such a shame. I've been told that IPs are more than likely not going to be blocked through SPI because it's an IP and not a registered user, but I'll keep on eye on them.

 * This sounds like a very appropriate case for WP:ANI, but that's up to you. --Dr. Fleischman (talk) 19:46, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
 * I didn't realize that Fairyspit has already been blocked for socking and is a serial block evader. You really ought to add the IPs to their SPI. SPI clerks routinely block IPs, and if necessary they can do a rangeblock. See WP:IPB. --Dr. Fleischman (talk) 19:57, 25 February 2015 (UTC)

Kingdom (TV series)
Hi Lady Lotus- if you intend to create a dab page, could you go ahead and do it? (And correct any incoming links?) As it is now, the "better" title is redirecting to the "worse" one, which isn't really a great situation. Josh Milburn (talk) 22:02, 12 March 2015 (UTC)
 * I redirected the Kingdom (TV series) page to the Kingdom disamb page under the Popular Culture subsection. Good? <span style="text-shadow:4px 4px 15px #00F,-4px -4px 15px #49F;">LADY LOTUS • <span style="text-shadow:4px 4px 15px #F80,-4px -4px 15px #F08;">TALK 11:13, 13 March 2015 (UTC)

I agree that the article's doesn't meet the FA criteria because of all the citaiton needed tags. Can you start a FA review? --FutureTrillionaire (talk) 00:15, 14 March 2015 (UTC)

I thought it was an interesting piece of trivia... especially if you have seen TV Burp... how can I source information that I have acquired only from watching an episode ?? Annabunnykin (talk) 01:51, 16 March 2015 (GMT)
 * You can't otherwise it would be original research which doesn't fly here. Also, Wikipedia is not a place for "trivia" of that kind.

I thought one of the wikipedia golden rules was not to be rude........ Sorry but I really don't understand how what I was providing was irrelevant. And as far as I'm aware Wikipedia is for information, not excluding trivia. Annabunnykin (talk) 03:17, 16 March 2015 (GMT)

I have reverted your move, as there are a large number of incoming links to the page, and it is therefore a controversial move requiring discussion per WP:RM. Furthermore, per WP:MALPLACED you can't redirect a "Foo" title to a "Foo (disambiguation)" title. Cheers! bd2412 T 02:06, 26 March 2015 (UTC)
 * I do apologize for that, I didn't realize it would be such a controversial move until I saw all the links, which I was trying to fix but didn't get to them all. I made a request for the move on his talk page, so we'll see what happens. Thank you. <span style="text-shadow:4px 4px 15px #00F,-4px -4px 15px #49F;">LADY LOTUS • <span style="text-shadow:4px 4px 15px #F80,-4px -4px 15px #F08;">TALK 11:57, 26 March 2015 (UTC)

Benedict Cumberbatch full protection
The thing is that according to Protection policy "Pre-emptive full protection of articles is contrary to the open nature of Wikipedia." So with a lack of sockpuppets there is little need to protect. As soon as a sockpuppet is identified then it can be blocked. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 11:37, 3 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Ok, thanks so much :) <span style="text-shadow:4px 4px 15px #00F,-4px -4px 15px #49F;">LADY LOTUS • <span style="text-shadow:4px 4px 15px #F80,-4px -4px 15px #F08;">TALK 11:39, 3 April 2015 (UTC)
 * I just realised that there is a slight benefit to Wikipedia. The sockpuppet must make 10 edits to be autoconfirmed. In order to be able to fly under the radar the 10 edits will probably be good ones. Then the problem ones start and they get blocked but there still the good edits. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 11:49, 3 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Yea and as many socks as Fairyspit has made, over 90 now, they know how to make good edits and then they just get so territorial over those pages and add information that they want to see regardless of policy or guideline. <span style="text-shadow:4px 4px 15px #00F,-4px -4px 15px #49F;">LADY LOTUS • <span style="text-shadow:4px 4px 15px #F80,-4px -4px 15px #F08;">TALK 11:51, 3 April 2015 (UTC)
