License tagging for Image:Silver in-game.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Silver in-game.jpg. Wikipedia gets hundreds of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Shadow 2006.JPG)
Thanks for uploading Image:Shadow 2006.JPG. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia 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. Gay Cdn (talk) (Contr.) 23:38, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

About Universe at war edit.
Hey, Thanks for your contributions. I was looking at one of your edit that you deleted about greeks. To tell you. It does have. For example one of the prince closely resemble zeus. Though that is all the info i got. There is plenty more info at IGN. That is it for now. Do keep up you're good work --SkyWalker 08:37, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Here is some info . We need a gameplay article in UAW. Can you write it?. --SkyWalker 09:06, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
 * I removed the box art because i waiting for a real license from sega. I have sent an mail regarding the license to them and will be getting details pretty soon. So i can add it permanently here in wikipedia instead of me getting thousand of messages from bots and other people that this cover is going to get deleted in this many days if a proper license is not given. :). --SkyWalker 11:51, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

Removal of link from Scientology
- please explain at Talk:Scientology. Cirt (talk) 22:52, 10 December 2009 (UTC)

December 2009
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Scientology. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period. Additionally, users who perform several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. Please stop the disruption, otherwise you may be blocked from editing. Cirt (talk) 04:04, 11 December 2009 (UTC)

Nostalgia Critic
I'm sorry I have to tell you this, but he isn't real. He is a fictional character, played by a comedian, not a critic. The whole purpose of this show is to mock the films/TV shows/video games/etc., and his "reviews" are purely for satirical purposes.

I have nothing against NC or Doug Walker (the guy who plays him), but just because he has the word critic in his name doesn't necessarily make him a certified critic. He has his own opinions on the movies he mocks, but that does not mean that he is actually a legitimate movie critic.

Just because the NC profiled the Pound Puppies movie doesn't mean it is one of the worst movies ever made (as another NC fan thought); I'm pretty sure you can find sources from actual critics that, while negative about the film, contradict such claims. Just because the NC hated Full House and stated that everyone disliked this show doesn't mean that it is one of the worst TV shows ever; in fact, it was one of the most popular shows on television at the time and I'm pretty sure that all real critics weren't that harsh on it.

See why everyone is deleting your edit to Ernest Scared Stupid? The Nostalgia Critic is not Roger Ebert, Gene Siskel, Pauline Kael, and a bunch of other professional movie critics. Doug Walker is a comedian, not a professional movie (or TV... or video game) critic. Another thing is that not many people know who he is anyway. The Nostalgia Critic is supposed to be taken purely as entertainment, like Mystery Science Theater 3000, and not as a review show like At the Movies.

Let it go. If it will make you happy, you can say that Ernest was mocked on The Nostalgia Critic, instead of "The Nostalgia Critic called it one of the worst movies ever made, up there with all of the movies of Ed Wood," because it's just not true.

Update: The Nostalgia Critic reference in the Star Wars Holiday Special is in the subsection titled "Parodies and references in popular culture," which means that it was spoofed, not professionally criticized.

As for the other pages, the Receptions section doesn't reference the Nostalgia Critic at all. The links to the episodes are placed under the "External links" section, not the "References" section, which doesn't mean that NC/Doug's opinions were used as reference, an NC fan just posted a link to the episode.

And another thing, Wikipedia can be edited by everyone, and that doesn't necessarily mean that everything on each page is factual. Anybody can post a link to NC episodes here, but that doesn't make him a professional critic.

The Nostalgia Critic is not supposed to be taken as actual critical opinion, but for comedy. As I mentioned before, the show is the work of a professional comedian, not a professional movie critic. And the problem with some of NC's followers is that they take his opinions too seriously, most likely because of the fact that the character's name is the "Nostalgia Critic" (again, does not make his opinions professional).

I don't really want to argue about this any further. I know that you have been engaged in a couple edit wars with other pages, and know, you're threatening to go to the Wiki higher-ups to request blocking another person who is willing to tamper with the page you're overprotecting. As I mentioned in my last post, you can keep the NC reference, as long as you say that the movie was mocked on the show, instead of saying that it is considered one of the worst films ever, by a comedian that not many people have heard of.

End of discussion. Freshh (talk) 15:43, 30 October 2010 (UTC)

Main page appearance
Hello! This is a note to let the main editors of this article know that it will be appearing as the main page featured article on May 3, 2011. You can view the TFA blurb at Today's featured article/May 3, 2011. If you think it is necessary to change the main date, you can request it with the featured article director or at Wikipedia talk:Today's featured article/requests. If the previous blurb needs tweaking, you might change it—following the instructions of the suggested formatting. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page so Wikipedia doesn't look bad. :D Thanks!

Shadow the Hedgehog is a 2005 video game developed by Sega Studio USA, the former United States division of Sega's Sonic Team. Featuring the titular fictional character Shadow the Hedgehog from Sega's Sonic the Hedgehog series, Shadow the Hedgehog is the third game (and the last in the Sonic series) developed by Sega Studio USA. Following the trend of recent Sonic games such as Sonic Adventure and Sonic Heroes, Shadow the Hedgehog is a 3D platform game. Most levels have three possible missions—"Hero", "Dark", or "Normal"—that the player may choose to complete; some levels have only two (which mostly are only "Hero" and "Dark"). The missions completed determine the game's plot, a feature referenced by the game's tagline, "Hero or villain? You decide." The plot centers on the attempt of Shadow, a creation of Doctor Eggman's grandfather Gerald Robotnik, to learn about his past after suffering from amnesia. To defeat enemies encountered, Shadow can use various weapons and special attacks. Shadow the Hedgehog was created for the Nintendo GameCube, PlayStation 2, and Xbox video game consoles. It received mixed to negative reviews; critics criticized its unwelcome "dark" theme, particularly the addition of guns and other weapons, but praised its replay value. (more...)
