Farscape
Hey, thanks for pitching in with the Farscape synopsis! Was wondering when we would get some folks to help out with those so it's much appreciated. Considering the sheer volumn of work needed, don't worry about the lack of wiki links - I'm sure some busy body will eventually put them in. Heck, none of the episode articles existed a month ago until I created them LOL Welcome aboard. RoyBatty42 02:17, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

Inle lake leg rowing
Do you have a ref on the weeds being origin of leg rowing? Women navigate sitting down in hyacinth choked channels without much problem. I have heard other reasons for stand up rowing, the reason not being weeds, but about fishing, which is practiced mostly by men, and the two types of nets that they use have to be manipulated standing. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Kanbawsa (talk • contribs) 03:12, 25 February 2007 (UTC).

I'm confused
Is there any reason you removed my apology regarding the edits I made to The Langoliers? Typically, removing content from other users on your talk page is frowned upon by the Wikipedia community. Sarc37 16:50, 16 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Re:your message. Oh, sorry about that. Like I said, I was confused. I apologize again. :) Sarc37 17:20, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Farscape
Saw that you were doing to some work on the synopsis of first season Farscape episodes. Always welcome, but the area that really needs attention are the later seasons, many don't have any last time I looked after creating them. Not sure how you came to the episodes, but there is a page for List of Farscape episodes if you wanted a jumping off point. RoyBatty42 10:55, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Hi. I've been doing the later seasons, but couldn't remember where I stopped, so I started at the beginning with the thought of editing what I've already done, but then got sidetracked by editing some of the earlier ones that I didn't do. I'll make my way to the later ones, shortly. The real question is, how long is too long for each synopsis? :-) QuizzicalBee 14:32, 22 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Personally, I feel that each synopsis should only run about 4 or 5 SHORT paragraphs, each covering the "acts" of the episode. The links at the bottom, especially for Farscapeworld.com, can usually give someone more in depth episode information. RoyBatty42 23:48, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

Another thing to keep an eye out for if you can: David Kemper's wikilinks. Seems there is a drummer named David Kemper. Hence, all the old entries on Farscape related pages that are presently David Kemper need to be replaced with David Kemper so it is article, which I had to create. RoyBatty42 22:00, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

I wish I had seen the unanswered questions sections earlier and could have warned you off. Something like that falls under heading No original research and it seems that someone has already noticed it and has been blanking it out. Sorry, I know how frustrating it is to watch material get dumped (I'm currently in a debate about something I put up for an article that a admin is calling copyright violation). The only way you could get something like that up, of course, is to find a site that also lists them. You can check at farscapeworld.com (which is actually run by a friend of mine), snurcher's guide or the like. But on the other hand, it's still debatable whether something like that is encyclopedic. PS - Going to the Scaper Con next November? RoyBatty42 17:30, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

FYI - it is supposed to be the last one they will put on and certainly the last they will get so many of the stars for, it you are into that sort of thing. A friend who I turned on to Farscape last year lives only a mile from the convention center. RoyBatty42 18:50, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

Unending
Hello... thanks for adding the notes re: actor/character motivation to "Unending". You may have noticed that I've added citation requests. Please don't interpret it as a challenge of the material's accuracy; instead, I think that your edit adds useful out-of-universe information to the article. I'd like to see citations so that the text doesn't get deleted by someone in the future. Thanks again. --Ckatz chat spy  03:00, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

Vincent Chin
Dude, do you have a REAL source for what you're saying when you get that far off NPOV? Cite your source or remove your comments. I'm putting too much serious work on the page to have it vandalized by some ranter. There are severe contradictions between the court record and the Asian American articles (none has ever mentioned the 1989 hearing) and you're not helping! MMetro 21:29, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for showing me my way around these talk pages. Not sure how to keep a thread coherent, but a little bit of trivia for the next time you do see the film. Comparing my notes of the shot travelling down Woodward with old city directories, I found that Vincent grew up next to the KFC that seen in the movie. That's all gone, now, but the McDonald's became a Coney Island-- the planters and phone booth are still there. I'll try to get pictures put up, sometime. MMetro 11:08, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

Wiley Protocol
I noticed that you made some edits to this article a while back. Because I'm COI with Wiley, I've agreed not to edit, only discuss, but our only editor, WLU, seems to be COI too and I'm not getting anywhere with him. Would you consider lending a hand to this article? It needs it. By the way, I grew up in Pennsylvania. Neil Raden 04:33, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Hi Neil. I don't know where your talk page is, so I am replying on my own talk page. I don't know enough about the Wiley Protocol to edit it. My edits were mainly pretty minor.QuizzicalBee 02:22, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

Sebacean
A template has been added to the article Sebacean, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you endorse deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please tag it with db-author. Gavin Collins 20:50, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

Farscape episodes
Please do not bring those back until it is shown that they can reach even as far as the first episode's condition. The first episode barely establishes notability as it is, so you're going to have to put in some work for the non-special episodes to become decent. As for consensus, only WP:ILIKEIT comments have been given for reasons to keep, so consensus is found in policies and guidelines. TTN 18:22, 14 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Your comment here is erroneous and wrong-headed. Are you suggesting that Wikipedia policies be ignored simply because, as a fan of the series, you like the episode articles? We have a clear policy of redirection in these instances, a policy that has been amply confirmed. These will be redirected; I suggest you open up an RfA if you are unhappy that policies and guidelines are being applied and followed. Eusebeus 19:07, 14 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Everything eventually leads back to our policies and guidelines, and none of the complaints even come close to being based from their standpoints. Do not even pretend that you cannot improve the articles because of me. You could easily work in a sandbox, or just apply the sources and go from there. As I said, you only need the level of the first episode, which would take ten minutes if it is easy as you claim. I suggest that you head over to TV.com and Wikia if you would like to continue to write about the episodes. TTN 19:30, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
 * You have had well over a month to get started (and probably six months to a few years counting from their creation), and there has been nothing to show that anything besides the first episode can be improved. You need to show something, not repeatedly claim and hypothesize that something will come about. Again, I am just asking for a few references, which would not take that long to do. TTN 20:29, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

"Crackers Don't Matter"
Hi,

Thanks for your compliment and your edits and additions to the page. I have two questions. First, could we include a source for the new information you added? Second, about the Scorpy clone subplot: I'm not sure how we should deal with it in the article. On the one hand, it's definately something that needs to be mentioned. On the other, we're revealing spoilers for the whole season (and beyond) by explaining the whole situation. That's why my original text was deliberately vague. If we want to spell it out in full in the article, I think maybe we should inculde a spoiler warning or something. What do you think?

Acegikmo1 (talk) 11:45, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

Instead of undoing those, can you just use the discussion page? I'm pretty sure everyone was good with leaving some and redirecting others. TTN (talk) 19:26, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

Dispute on FGC
Hi. I am having a dispute with a user on Female genital cutting. I noticed your previous contribution and hoped you might provide some third-party commentary on a dispute at Talk:Female genital cutting. Your opinion would be greatly appreciated. Thank You. Phyesalis (talk) 01:30, 30 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Sorry for the bad link. I fixed it. Phyesalis

Female genital cutting
You edited the article to read (all emphasis mine):

Female genital cutting (FGC), female genital mutilation (FGM), female circumcision (FC), clitoridectomy, or clitorectomy[1], is the excision or tissue removal of any part of the female genitalia for religious, cultural or other non-medical reasons.

Your cited source says:

''Clitorectomy: A surgical procedure in which all or part of the clitoris and sometimes also the labia are removed. Clitorectomy is a form of female circumcision (female genital mutilation).''

Since FGC refers to removal of "any part," not the clitoris and maybe more, your edit introduces factual inaccuracy into the article. The terms you added are forms of FGC, they do not refer to all forms of FGC. Blackworm (talk) 17:40, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Centralized TV Episode Discussion
Over the past months, TV episodes have been reverted by (to name a couple) TTN, Eusebeus and others. No centralized discussion has taken place, so I'm asking everyone who has been involved in this issue to voice their opinions here in this centralized spot, be they pro or anti. Discussion is here. --User: (talk) 19:25, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Peter Jackson (academic)
A tag has been placed on Peter Jackson (academic) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page 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.

As you are a recent editor of the articles in question, please see my merge proposal of Hugh Nibley and Egyptian names in the Book of Mormon - thanks. --Descartes1979 (talk) 04:56, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
 * After discussion and a second look, I am changing my proposal to merge with Linguistics and the Book of Mormon. That is a much more natural fit for the content of Egyptian Names in the Book of Mormon.  See the new discussion here.  --Descartes1979 (talk) 21:16, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

AfD nomination of Ann Dunham
An editor has nominated Ann Dunham, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes ( ~ ).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 22:03, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

Jewish Christians
Dear QB - please read the Wikipedia article Jewish Christians. You will see that this term has very specific meanings which do not apply to the Mendelssohn family.

Edit summaries
Hi, I just saw your minor edit to Jerzy Kosinski, and noticed that you seldom make use of edit summaries. It's very helpful to other editors to see those when checking their watchlists; would you mind filling in that field in the future, even if the edit is minor?

Hello, some of your edits to Serial killer, such as the information added about Ted Bundy, Jack the Ripper and David Berkowitz, do not attribute the information to any sources.

Edit summaries, again.
This is unacceptable. You made major edits to a page and did not include anything in the edit summary. You've been asked multiple times to put accurate edit summaries alongside your edits.

Robert Giguère
Hi, If you have an interest in this page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Gigu%C3%A8re) and similar pages, I strongly suggest you get acquainted (and eventually intervene) with this link: http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikip%C3%A9dia:Demande_de_restauration_de_page#Robert_Gigu.C3.A8re.C2.A0.28d.C2.A0.C2.B7.C2.A0h.C2.A0.C2.B7.C2.A0j_.C2.A0.C2.B7.C2.A0.E2.86.B5.29

In short, Utilisateur:LPLT in the French Wikipedia eliminated the french version of the page 3 hours after I posted the first draft of it.

What do you think if I cite page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability ? it is important to not just consider whether notability is established by the article, but whether it readily could be. Remember that all Wikipedia articles are not a final draft, and an article can be notable if such sources exist even if they have not been added at present. Merely asserting that such sources exist is seldom persuasive, especially as time passes and actual proof does not surface. If it is likely that significant coverage in independent sources can be found for a topic, deletion due to lack of notability is inappropriate unless active effort has been made to find these sources. For articles of unclear notability, deletion should be a last resort.

This guy apparently has not read that, nor the french version. He is on a rampage to eliminate all biographical pages he judges are only of a genealogical nature and his list includes the English page on Robert Giguère, and possibly more pages YOU care about.

Hello QuizzicalBee! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created  is tagged as an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources.

List of paraphilias ‎ -- Fat fetishism
Hello, QuizzicalBee. I removed your addition of fat fetishism from the List of paraphilias, because I saw nothing in the source you added calling it a paraphilia. Just because something is a sexual fetish...it does not mean it is a paraphilia. See the Sexual fetishism, where it says, "If a fetish causes significant psychosocial distress for the person or has detrimental effects on important areas of their life, it is diagnosable as a paraphilia in the DSM and the ICD." So, yes, fat fetishism could be diagnosed as a paraphilia in some people. But my main point is that I saw nothing in the source you added calling it a paraphilia. Maybe I didn't look well enough, but I didn't see that. Flyer22 (talk) 00:43, 16 February 2011 (UTC)

Infant Oral Mutilation
Thank you very much for looking at my Infant Oral Mutilation contribution and for taking the time to improve it. I am quite happy with your edits and your rewrites are good.

I have, however, changed back the paragraph under the Heading to read "decades" instead of an unknown number of years" as we have published evidence of IOM occurring in Sudan in the 1930's and then a steady flow of evidence from the 1960's onwards. So I think "decades" is a better description.

How does one get the template at the top re the "multiple issues" removed?

There are no other articles on this subject in Wikipedia to cross-reference to, as far as I can find.

Speedy deletion nomination of Entertainment Earth


A tag has been placed on Entertainment Earth, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which articles can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:
 * It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Business for more information.
 * It appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), individual animal, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. (See section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. red dog six (talk) 01:46, 11 March 2014 (UTC)

Please note that WP:FILMPLOT specifies that film plot summaries should typically be between 400-700 words. Your edit brought the summary over 1,000 words, and I have consequently reverted it.

Asian 10,000 Challenge invite
Hi. The WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland The 10,000 Challenge and WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like South East Asia, Japan/China or India etc, much like The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant! Thank you. -- Ser Amantio di Nicolao Che dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 02:20, 21 October 2016 (UTC)

Wikipedia Asian Month 2017: Invitation to Participate


Hello! Last year, you signed up to participate in Wikipedia Asian Month (WAM) 2016 on the English Wikipedia. The event was an international success, with hundreds of editors creating thousands of articles on Asian topics across dozens of different language versions of Wikipedia.

I'd like to invite you to join us for Wikipedia Asian Month 2017, which once again lasts through the month of November. The goal is for users to create new articles on Asian-related content, each at least 3,000 bytes and 300 words in length. Editors who create at least four articles will receive a Wikipedia Asian Month postcard!

Also be sure to check out the Wikipedia Asian Art Month affiliate event - creating articles on Asian art topics can get you a Metropolitan Museum of Art postcard!

If you're interested, please sign up here for the English Wikipedia. If you are interested in also working on other language editions of Wikipedia, please visit the meta page to see other participating projects. If you have any questions, please visit our talk page.

Thank you!

Proposed deletion of Bryan Alexander (futurist)
Hello, QuizzicalBee

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username Arthistorian1977, and I thank you for your contributions.

I wanted to let you know, however, that I’ve proposed an article that you started, Bryan Alexander (futurist), for deletion because it's a biography of a living person that lacks references. To prevent the deletion, please add a reference to the article. You may remove the deletion tag yourself once the article has at least one reliable source.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with. And, don't forget to sign your reply with. Thanks!

Speedy deletion nomination of Bryan Alexander (futurist)


A tag has been placed on Bryan Alexander (futurist) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from bryanalexander.org/bio. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

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 "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 deleted 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.
