The Led Zeppelin article
Why did you remove the "Also they kicked royal ass" line? (I didn't add it, just happened to see it). It's factually accurate, you know.

Infobox's
Just a couple of tips when working with infobox's or vertical list's:

1) When making a list, puncuation is NOT needed. Chicago Manual of Style: Vertical Lists, Bullets

2) Also you don't need the "forward slash" "/" when you use the "break command": " "

Thanks for you time, WikiDon 19:51, 18 September 2005 (UTC)


 * I get #1. But doesn't the MediaWiki software convert  tags to   anyway? Thanks for the info.&mdash;Sixteen Left 20:00, 18 September 2005 (UTC)

Relient K lyrics
Why is it that when someone adds a link to a relient k lyrics page, you remove it? are you not wanting a link there? I have seen multiple links be added there for lyrics and each time they get removed. just wonder what's up about that... (Jdingman 10:07, 3 December 2005 (UTC))
 * I thought it was spam, but looking at other artist articles, I see lyrics pages links, so I'll quit removing them.&mdash;thegreentrilby 14:01, 3 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Ok, sounds good. I left a good link there that is precise and to the point, no fluff or popups on that page. (Jdingman 06:50, 4 December 2005 (UTC))

Request for edit summary
Hi. I am a bot, and I am writing to you with a request. I would like to ask you, if possible, to use edit summaries a bit more often when you contribute. The reason an edit summary is important is because it allows your fellow contributors to understand what you changed; you can think of it as the "Subject:" line in an email. For your information, your current edit summary usage is 45% for major edits and 10% for minor edits. (Based on the last 150 major and 150 minor edits in the article namespace.)

This is just a suggestion, and I hope that I did not appear impolite. You do not need to reply to this message, but if you would like to give me feedback, you can do so at the feedback page. Thank you, and happy edits, Mathbot 03:30, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

Wiki's punctuation guidelines
Per your edits on Foo Fighters, I just wanted to note Wiki's guidelines for quotation marks:

Manual_of_Style

What you changed is correct for some style methods, but not the ones that Wiki utilizes. In particular, Wiki uses "logical quote style" - quotes around song titles should exclude punctuation. Further explanation is here under "Using commas and periods with Quotations, Song Titles, Article Titles, including in a Series":

GEOweasel
You removed my prod from GEOweasel, so I AfDed it. You'll probably want to register your objection to deletion. --Fuzzie (talk) 01:57, 22 March 2006 (UTC)


 * Apologies if you already know this, but - you're quite welcome to remove prod notices for any reason, even if you feel the article should be deleted, it's very much meant as a "deletion only if absolutely no-one objects" system and you don't need to justify yourself. :) --Fuzzie (talk) 02:47, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

Might be my fault...sorry
I accidentally hit edit this page, though I never saved anything, and your boxes were all scrunched together, then i hit my back button and they were all scrunched together, I don't think I did anything, but sorry if I did. DJREJECTED 02:12, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

Vault dash
There is a separator - the blue text ends, plus there's a little link graphic (see?). I see that as sufficient, and the dash becomes superfluous. SchuminWeb (Talk) 00:04, 9 April 2006 (UTC)

Choosing one template for musicians
Hello, I just posted a message in Template talk:Infobox Band, but I got no response, I hope you don't mind if I ask you directly. Currently there's two infoboxes that are used for bands: Template:Infobox Band and Template:Infobox musical artist 2. While the first one in band-specific, the second is a general infobox for all musicians and groups, that nevertheless contains the same fields. Do you think we could agree on one standard infobox to use? CG 12:59, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:12 Stones.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:12 Stones.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. When you use a generic fair use tag such as or , you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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 lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. bainer (talk) 15:32, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

Image:Staple (band).jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Staple (band).jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the image description page and edit it to add, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
 * 2) On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- Chowbok  ☠  22:24, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

User:Sixteen Left/TWiT
I have added a "" template to the article User:Sixteen Left/TWiT, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (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.

Ed, Edd n Eddy
Please do not restore Best Day Edder to the Special Events section. The event is history, and turned out to be barely more notable than any other past marathon. It barely meets notablility standards and as such, should only be mentioned in passing as a historical event. Speculation, or even facts about upcoming events should not be mentioned along with it. The link you posted about Season 6 leads to a fan page, which is not a reliable source. Thank you. -- Elaich 03:59, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

Unspecified source for Image:AnberlinBlueprintsfortheBlackMarket.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:AnberlinBlueprintsfortheBlackMarket.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Fair use, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following [ this link]. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 08:41, 1 June 2007 (UTC).

Orphaned non-free image (Image:All-Pro Football 2K8 logo.png)
Thanks for uploading Image:All-Pro Football 2K8 logo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free 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 for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not.

Calling All Cars!
Regarding this edit. I'm sure you know this already, being very experienced, but Wikipedia is not censored. The original source uses "go fuck yourselves", so that is what we use. I made this change once before, as well as referencing the original review itself to show the language used. --Dreaded Walrus t c 09:59, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

Fair use disputed for Image:DiRT game cover.png
Thanks for uploading Image:DiRT game cover.png. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our Criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 05:01, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Uncharted Drake's Fortune cover.png
Thank you for uploading Image:Uncharted Drake's Fortune cover.png. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI 04:40, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

Quotes
Here, let me show you.
 * Wow. I noticed you have strong feelings whether quotations should be used when tracklistings for albums or not.  The fact is, though, the reason they are on Wish You Were Here (album) for example, is because a different band mate does the vocals for each song.  You know what I mean?


 * 2. "Welcome to the Machine" (Waters) – 7:30

This is correct. If it was:
 * 2. Welcome to the Machine (Waters) – 7:30 or
 * 2. "Welcome to the Machine (Waters)" – 7:30

It would be wrong. The song title needs quotes to show that "(Waters)" is not part of the song. So most other albums such as Rival Factions and The Kane Mutiny EP you keep reverting do not need such quotes. But, if for some reason I'm wrong. Tell me. --TehY3llowDart (talk) 15:08, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:Everyday Shooter "cover".png)
Thanks for uploading File:Everyday Shooter "cover".png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Civility
Hi Sixteen Left, I noticed this edit summary of yours, which struck me as rather rude. I appreciate that we can all get frustrated or annoyed sometimes, but I'd just like to remind you that collaborative projects like Wikipedia work best when people act nicely towards each other. In friendship, and with a cup, mug, or glass of your beverage of choice in hand, AJR | Talk 21:50, 17 July 2009 (UTC)


 * I dig ya, man, just that my patience finally wore out. Edit disputes I can deal with, but when someone goes off and screws with the rest of the article to make a point it drives me up the proverbial wall. Adesso sono rilassato.—Lividfiction (talk) 21:55, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

AfD nomination of Smosh
An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is Smosh. 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 Notability and "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(s) by adding your comments to Articles for deletion/Smosh (4th nomination). 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.

Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:47, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

File:SegaNet_logo.png
I have tagged File:SegaNet_logo.png as no rationale, because it does not provide a fair use rationale. If you believe the image to be acceptable for fair use according to Wikipedia policy, please provide a rationale explaining as much, in accordance with the fair use rationale guideline, on the image description page. Some examples can be found at Use rationale examples. Please also consider using or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags/Non-free.

Fair use rationale for File:All-Pro Football 2K8 (PS3).jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:All-Pro Football 2K8 (PS3).jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 10:33, 23 March 2010 (UTC)

You are now a Reviewer
Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 18:02, 19 June 2010 (UTC)

Please avoid changing "Trump" to "Drumpf"
Hi Sixteen Left. In one of your recent edits, you changed the word "Trump" to "Drumpf". I assume that this was unintentional and caused by having the Drumpfinator extension enabled. To avoid this kind of mistake in the future, please disable the extension before editing articles that mention Trump. Thank you. —Granger (talk · contribs) 00:52, 6 December 2016 (UTC)


 * Yup. I caught it the first time it happened (as you can see here). Forgot about the extension the next time. I know about disabling extensions and simply forgot to disable it for this edit. Please make note of this and simply revert my edit if it happens again. Thank you for the heads up.—16← (talk) 01:19, 6 December 2016 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Busted Stuff, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Stephen Harris.
