Please stop changing Australian articles to football
Football (soccer) is the agreed term for Australian articles. It has already been agreed that the term is football (soccer), not football or association football. Please open a new discussion on it if you think it should be changed. I'd be happy to give my opinion —Preceding unsigned comment added by 60.224.3.243 (talk) 08:43, 4 June 2010 (UTC)
 * The changes you made were done without explanation, edit summary, or link to the discussion which you are referring to. In addition, you changed the link to display without piping, and the link added simply redirected to the article it was originally linked to. This gave the appearance of test editing or vandalism. Could you please provide the link to the discussion showing that the changes you made had concensus? Thank you, --Jezebel's Ponyo shhh 13:28, 4 June 2010 (UTC)

Sorry, here's the link I was referring to: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Association_football_in_Australia#protected 60.224.3.243 (talk) 10:31, 5 June 2010 (UTC)

I replaced the BLP Prod on this article which you removed, because imdb is not a reliable source. I42 (talk) 18:46, 4 June 2010 (UTC)
 * IMDB can be used to used to verify basic role information - this has been discussed many times on the WP:RS board. The point is moot though, because I didn't use it as a souce, I included it as an external link. Also, I included a reference from The Whitby Gazette, which certainly is a RS. I also improved the article substantially. Did you really look at it before undoing my changes? --Jezebel's Ponyo shhh  18:53, 4 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Er, yes - my apologies. I suffered complete blindness to the ref in the Whitby Gazette you also added which, of course, did satisfy the requirements for the removal of the BLP Prod. I42 (talk) 21:07, 4 June 2010 (UTC)

Deaths in 2010
Thank you. Would you mind pointing me to the discussion(s) where this consensus was reached? I believe putting a note on the talk page about this would help prevent other oafs like myself from doing this :)  Jujutacular  T · C 23:28, 4 June 2010 (UTC)
 * I would hardly classify you as an oaf for following the referencing guideline for almost all pages except the Deaths in 2xxx page! If you would like to follow the previous discussions, this is a good starting point. Cheers, --Jezebel's Ponyo shhh 01:38, 5 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Thank you! I've created a tag: Template:UsebareURLs and implemented it.  Jujutacular  T · C 07:50, 5 June 2010 (UTC)
 * I like it! Thanks for the effort. Cheers, --Jezebel's Ponyo shhh 14:57, 5 June 2010 (UTC)

That was completely unintentional. Thanks for fixing that. (Sugar Bear (talk) 21:34, 10 June 2010 (UTC))
 * I assume you hadn't gone rogue! Cheers, --Jezebel's Ponyo shhh 21:42, 10 June 2010 (UTC)

Thank you very much for your contribution to my Rfa. I have made a comment about it at User talk:JamesBWatson which you are, of course, very welcome to read if you wish to. JamesBWatson (talk) 14:39, 21 June 2010 (UTC)
 * You're very welcome, and congratulations! --Jezebel's</b> Ponyo <sup style="color:navy;">shhh 14:43, 21 June 2010 (UTC)

Gillberg Wrestling Academy edit to Duane Gill
You'll have to explain to me how factual information which is presented in an encyclopedic manner and is properly cited does not meet the requirements for a reliable source or external links, especially with this in mind in addition to this. Not trying to be combative, I'm just curious how it does not apply and how the source is not valid yet it meets the requirement of being self-published. ⒺⓋⒾ ⓁⒼⓄ ⒽⒶⓃ ② talk 17:52, 29 June 2010 (UTC)
 * I am having major computer issues today, so apologies in advance if this reply is delayed. Your edit initially read as promotional (new gym/grand opening with only facebook as a reference). However upon undoing your edit I reviewed it again and tried to revert myself - my connection timed out for the billionth time today and you got to it first. So, sorry for the knee jerk reaction and I plan on taking a hiatus until my server issues are solved! Cheers, --<b style="color:navy;">Jezebel's</b> Ponyo <sup style="color:navy;">shhh 18:07, 29 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Ah, ok. I was only curious. Best of luck with your computer issues. ⒺⓋⒾ ⓁⒼⓄ ⒽⒶⓃ ②  talk 18:09, 29 June 2010 (UTC)
