What did i do?
On the Back To The Future: The Ride page, you said that i am vandalizing it? Um, exactly what am i vandalizing? - 9allenride9 (talk) 23:06, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

Exactly with me. I didn't vandalise Nickelodeon Studios. The time capsule isn't at the Nick Hotel. You think that it's there? Well show me a picture. Stitchon (talk) 02:09, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

Same here. No vandalism. I put in the proper names of the queues as they are named by USF attendants. The constant reverting in itself is an act of vandalism. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.162.171.246 (talk) 22:44, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

The Simpsons Ride
this source is not a reliable source and it says that the president said this without using an exact quote. If it really was going to open within a month, then it would say so on the official website. If the California version is expected to open in June, then find a source that says it. And just because the previous ride had that height requirement, it does not mean the new one will. Things can easily change. -- Scorpion0422 22:28, 17 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Regarding Screamscape's reporting of Universal's team preview of The Simpsons Ride ... the only official verifiable source I could think of would be an employee newsletter or website that we could link to. I doubt we'll get a copy of that between now and then, and frankly adding that would almost be splitting hairs.  We don't have to list every single milestone in the attraction's development.  Saying the previews took place in April should be enough, and that would probably be after the fact instead of before it. --McDoobAU93 (talk) 02:58, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

Dealing with vandals
Hi there,

just noticed this warning you gave to a vandal recently. Well done for taking him on, but when they have already had a recent final warning (as this one had) there is no point in giving them another warning, that just makes them laugh. Next time, a better action is to report it at WP:AIV who will hopefully then block them.  Sp in ni ng  Spark  22:43, 17 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Sorry for the slow response, been away on business. If the vandal has had a recent final warning (from anyone) absolutely you should report it.  If they are doing nothing else besides vandalising, be sure to mention that it is a vandalism only account.  They are likely to get a longer block for that - maybe even forever.

Project Rumble
Hey there. I am an avid reader of (and poster to) Screamscape, so I did see the new notices that were filed. However, I'm trying to decide if that information really is notable at this point, since it's mainly for set designers and such. That said, it is information that would be good to add to the article later, as construction moves forward. I say we sit on it for now and wait until Rumble starts going vertical and/or attractions close (if any) to make way for it. --McDoobAU93 (talk) 17:39, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

Universal Infobox
Please look at the code for the infobox ... it keeps leaving garbage at the start of the articles into which it is appended. --McDoobAU93 (talk) 13:04, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

Legal threats
I am concerned that That Universal Guy is trying to intimidate you and other editors on the Disaster! article. First of all, you may not know, that making legal threats is considered a serious transgression on Wikipedia and he will be banned if we report him. I have left a warning on his talk page to that effect. If he does this again on any article you are watching please let me know or report him yourself.

If he/she has a legal issue, it should be dealt with through the Foundation legal department - that is what they are for - or else with the person concerned directly through proper legal channels. It is not acceptable to try to restrict free editing on-wiki with any kind of threat, including legal.

As for the picture being disputed, I am not a lawyer, so cannot give legal advice but I would not have thought there was much of a case. It might be against Universals rules to take pictures, but their rules do not have the force of law. Hard to see how they could claim copyright of a picture they did not take unless the photographer signed something at the time assigning the copyright to them (unlikely). Up to them to enforce their rules at their show. In fact, the photographer put a notice on the picture when he uploaded it releasing it into the public domain, so what evidence there is, says it is not Universals copyright.

I notice that you have put a copyvio template on the image. I would remove it if I were you (it is not the right template in any case). If That Universal Guy wants to dispute copyvio, let him tag it if he wants to. We don't need to do anything. If you want to put the image back in the article (not encouraging you either way - do what you think is best for the article) and he keeps reverting it, he'll get reported for that as well.

As a Universal employee, he should really be thinking twice before editing any Universal related article in any case because of possible breach of WP:COI.

Sorry to go on so long - hope that helps.  Sp in ni ng  Spark  12:24, 23 February 2008 (UTC)


 * As I said, I think your action should be to ignore the legal threats and do what you think looks best in the article regardless. If he threatens you again, report to WP:AN/I or tell me and I will make the report.  We can do without the kind of bad feeling this person is generating.  If he wants to play lawyers instead of collaborating then he can go talk to the Wikimedia Foundation lawyers, threatening editors is definitely not the right way.


 * Anyway, I think it is all hot air, not very likely that the great Universal Studios would put their legal interests in the hands of a jumped-up power-crazed car park attendant.  Sp in ni ng  Spark  23:55, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

Roderick Jaynes?
If Roderick Jaynes is actually a pen name for the Coen Brothers in Film Editing, then who is the guy in the picture they showed for No Country For Old Men during the nominee overview for Film Editing?--Snowman Guy (talk) 16:18, 2 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Great question. Per: http://www.ew.com/ew/gallery/0,,20007870_20164474_20180773_4,00.html  ... "Question: It's an open secret that the Coen brothers edit their own movies, but under the pseudonym Roderick Jaynes. Who, then, was the bespectacled old coot in the photo shown during the rundown of the Achievement in Film Editing nominees? Answer: A Dust Bowl-era farmer the wily Coens found in a book. The brothers are so committed to the ruse that if Jaynes had won this category, they would not have accepted on his behalf."  Thanks. (Joseph A. Spadaro (talk) 20:10, 2 March 2008 (UTC))

Original Research: T2 3-D: Battle Across Time
Hi, I removed a section of original research from the T2 3-D article recently. You are, of course, free to reinsert it. However, please let me know from what published source it comes, as per Wikipedia's content policies. Thanks for your help. Projection70 (talk) 00:07, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Last month I placed some challenges on the original mock-up's description, and a citation has not been contributed. I plan to re-delete it pretty soon. This is outlined in the discussion, but as you are overseeing a lot of what goes on with the page, I'm also running it by you first. The part that will be cut can be discerned based upon the "citation needed" tags. I will only be getting rid of assertions that I added while editing a long time ago, which are only there because of my direct involvement in the ride's development. That violates Wikipedia policy, so it needs to be taken down until it can be found in, and cited from, another publication first. It may also violate Digital Domain's policies. Any objections before I delete it one last time? Projection70 (talk) 21:24, 17 June 2008 (UTC)

Re:Simpsons Ride Entrance Photos
Let's not kid ourselves. The only reasons you want to use the image is because a) you took it and b) it has two people in it and either your one of them or you know them. Both of the other images are considerable better. -- Scorpion0422 23:18, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
 * It's not a good image at all, it's from an awkward angle, only shows 3/4 of the Krusty head and shows little else other than a couple letters of Krustyland. There are already other images of the Krustyhead, so readers do not need to know what that looks like. The other one actually shows what the entire building looks like, so it is more useful, even if there is a fence. -- Scorpion0422 23:32, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
 * None that I could find. If you are a member of any of the universal fan sites, then perhaps you could ask some of the members there if they have any images of the building (you would have to make sure they are willing to freely license them) -- Scorpion0422 20:52, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

Hollywood Rip, Ride, Rockit
"The attraction is future and has yet to open. This tag should stay here until the grand open". Why? The very first sentence of the article states "Hollywood Rip, Ride, Rockit is an upcoming roller coaster". So what is the point having the tag at the top? --Kildor (talk) 14:52, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

67.162.171.246
OK, I've taken a look at the edits from this user at your request. I don't think you can call most of them vandalism, so you cannot use the AIV process to deal with it. This is more along the lines of an editing dispute over content. The way Wikipedia expects editing disputes to be dealt with is for all the parties to discuss the issues on the talk page of the article in question and then when agreement is reached to modify the article text. You should avoid getting into revert wars, this is a blockable offence in itself, regardless of who is right - see WP:3RR. It is best to discuss, and politely try and persuade the other party to discuss, on the talk pages. If you really cannot come to an agreement there are dispute resolution processes that can be used but have a good try at discussion first.

On a couple of specific points, users are allowed to remove warnings from their own talk pages. This is not considered wrong (though archiving would be better) because it is their own user space. You might consider that the user removing a warning shows that they have read and understood the warning. On the matter of the external link, the relevant guideline is WP:EL and see in particular point 1 of this section which states that the official site of organisations should be linked. I know the site in question is very spammy and normally would not be acceptable, but if it is the official site this is an exception.

Hope that helps.  Sp in ni ng  Spark  23:44, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

Logo gallery in Universal Studios category
Hi, I noticed that you have reverted my removal of the Category:Universal Studios from several images. For example. This is not vandalism on my part, and the reason these categories are removed, is that the images are trademarked logos, and their existence in the categories (as a gallery) does not qualify for fair use of these non-free images. Please refer to WP:LOGO and Non-free_content for further information. If logos are required in categories, then you will need to edit the category and add: __NOGALLERY__ This will enable a list of images to be shown, without the image itself being shown. This will comply with fair use requirements. As an example, refer to Category:Airline logos. Thanks. --Россавиа Диалог 15:33, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

Future film header
Please do not apply that tag to a page unless it is a separate article for a future film. Technically, that means it is not in production and not a film, just talk about the possibility of a film and also misplaced in a main article. Alientraveller (talk) 21:37, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

IP Vandal
He just got noticed by the admins and got a temporary block. I was going to make a report for you but someone else beat me to it. Clear cut vandalism like that should be reported to WP:AIV after final warning which I see is what you did.  Sp in ni ng  Spark  00:48, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
 * It is only 24 hours because they don't like giving long blocks to IPs. The IP could be used by more than one person so you will be blocking someone innoccent as well.  However, if he does it again he will get progressively longer blocks each time.  Be sure to mention any threats on your talk page, that makes it much more serious and likely to get a longer block.  Sp in ni  ng  Spark  00:54, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

I have just given him a final warning. For ones like this, that come straight back after a block and start vandalising again, it is pointless given them all the polite warnings 1,2,3,4 go straight to  which says this is the only warning you will get. If he does one more after that then report to AIV and he will get a longer block.  Sp in ni ng  Spark  15:34, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

Universal articles
It seems to be very tough to bring pop-culture articles to GA quality, simply because, in many cases, there is very little supporting documentation. What we would need would be a lot of historical research. For example, a lot of articles from the Orlando Sentinel or other area newspapers detailing the attractions. --McDoobAU93 (talk) 02:36, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

In response to your post on The Simpsons Ride: I'd contact some of the leaders of the two WikiProjects associated with the article (Amusement Parks and Simpsons) and ask what they think. I think there's a lot of good source material, and the article flows reasonably well. It may need someone to go over the grammar and spelling, but that shouldn't be too hard. --McDoobAU93 (talk) 05:02, 29 June 2008 (UTC)

I like what you added to the "production facilities" section of the Universal Studios Florida article. I did go in and make some grammatical edits and tried to organize the article a bit more, and would certainly welcome other changes. Hope we can add some more to this in the future! --McDoobAU93 (talk) 01:42, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

Re: Images
Although I can understand your constant deletion of some of my images, your deletion of Nick Studios, E.T., Jaws and Studio Tour was unexplained, as they were valid. I'm going to reupload all of the images with a proper tag, but if they are still deleted by you, I'm going to chat with administrators.--Snowman Guy (talk) 20:18, 29 June 2008 (UTC)
 * No, they weren't valid. Fair use images are only allowed if a free-licensed image can't be reasonably found or made. In all of those cases, they could: Someone could go to the park and shoot their own photo and release it under a free-use license. And in the case of the Jaws picture, there are already two correctly licensed pictures that depict just about the same thing, so a fair use image doesn't do much to increase a reader's understanding. Perhaps you should read the rules for non-free work before accusing me of not knowing image policy. Melesse (talk) 20:33, 29 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Please do not delete the The Simpsons Ride and Kongfrontation images. They are free images, photographed by users.--Snowman Guy (talk) 23:41, 29 June 2008 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Simpsons_Ride_Film.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Simpsons_Ride_Film.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. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, 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. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. 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 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 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. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? -Nard 22:40, 30 June 2008 (UTC)

Busch Gardens Howl-O-Scream Tampa Bay
I'm not really clear on what was wrong with my contributions. Some of your location information was inaccurate, so I've changed that. 71.180.139.228 (talk) 00:59, 19 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Sweetheart, I work at the park and I worked every night of the 2007 event, I can assure you my information is accurate. "Baby" Zones did and do exist and so my contribution is not "Spam." You should double-check your information. 71.180.139.228 (talk) 11:22, 21 August 2008 (UTC)


 * As I said before, I worked every night of the event, as a member of the technical team. We as technicians and stage managers did indeed, as I said in the description, "affectionately refer to them as 'baby zones.'" I am curious as to where you're information comes from. You said you were at event. In what capacity? As a guest?

On another note, the definition of "spam" is as follows: n.  Unsolicited e-mail, often of a commercial nature, sent indiscriminately to multiple mailing lists, individuals, or newsgroups; junk e-mail. So I hardly see how a dispute over terminology can be termed "spam." 71.180.139.228 (talk) 00:12, 22 August 2008 (UTC)


 * "COI editing involves contributing to Wikipedia in order to promote your own interests or those of other individuals, companies, or groups. Where an editor must forgo advancing the aims of Wikipedia in order to advance outside interests, that editor stands in a conflict of interest." I don't really see how any of the edits I have made represent a conflict of interest. I simply wanted to make sure that all of the available information was accurate--everything I added (and which was subsequently deleted without any explanation) with the exception of the information on Mini/Baby Zones came straight from the 2007 HOS map. The Mini/Baby Zones were not mentioned on the maps because the entire point of the scares they employed was that guests didn't realize they were in a "zone" and were therefore not expecting to get scared. Since they were never listed in the literature, they have no official name as far as I know; I simply stated that the technical staff referred to them as "Baby Zones." Since you yourself as a guest can verify that, whether or not they were on the park maps, these zones did in fact exist, I do believe they deserve to be mentioned in the article because they were part of the event. However, since I cannot provide a reliable source (except for other technicians' and stage managers' word) that the Mini/Baby Zones were "affectionately referred to as 'Baby Zones.'" I'll drop that argument. 71.180.139.228 (talk) 17:01, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Creature from the Black Lagoon- The Musical
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Creature from the Black Lagoon- The Musical, 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 should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent 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.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because 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.

 * I see you put this picture back into the Blue Man Group Sharp Aquos Theatre page, likely so it won't be deleted, but can you honestly say that that thumbnail picture looks good when it is stretched out so much? It gets so pixelated and blurry that it is impossible to read.  I took/added the new picture so the poor quality one can be replaced.  This new one has all the words clear and legible, and shows the actual entrance to the building.  It would be an entirely different situation if that logo had a higher resolution (above thumbnail size) that looked acceptable, but until then, it has to be removed.

Hello Snowman Guy. It appears that you have been very involved with the improvements to this page as you are a regular to Universal Studios. I was hoping that your knowledge on the ride might be able to help us at the Back to the Future wiki, Futurepedia, where our article which was originally on Wikipedia is now being expanded upon there. However it lacks much of the detailed information that the Wikipedia version now contains. I considered a simple copy and paste per the GFDL terms but that would seem overly blatant and not give any explicit credit to those that contributed to the Wikipedia version.

Re: Jaws
Did you really, really have to create an article for the shark? There was already a discussion to merge Quint's article. And why is it you never add categories to your new articles? Alientraveller (talk) 09:56, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Snowman, I've been bold and redirected this article to Jaws (film series). I've spent a considerable amount of time tonight tidying the latter article, which people seemed to be using as a scrapbook for copy and pasting the other articles. It could be a useful article if written and references in the style of Halloween (franchise). The JPS talk to me  23:05, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

Disaster!
Hey, I think you made the right call moving the article to a much shorter name. I've left some comments on the new talk page regarding the name, too. In future, might I suggest that you use the "move" tab at the top of the page to rename an article. This corrects all watchlists automatically, instead of requiring users to re-watch the new article, and it maintains the article's full edit history, to boot. Just a friendly suggestion, Snowman ... thanks for your hard work on all the Universal articles. --McDoobAU93 (talk) 22:00, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

Universal Studios attraction operations
Hey. I appreciate all your work on the various Universal attraction articles. However, I did need to make numerous changes to three attractions: Twister, Disaster and T2:3D. In the case of Twister, you properly cited a verifiable article mentioning the shift to a seasonal schedule; however, you made an assumption about the reason for the closure that the article didn't make. I'm not saying you're wrong necessarily (what with Barack Obama talking down the economy and all, it probably is why), but the fact is the article didn't say that ... it merely says the attraction is switching to a seasonal schedule.

As to the other two articles, those are rumors that haven't been supported by anything verifiable yet. The rumor sites I read actually stated that both Disaster and T2:3D would remain open, but would run fewer shows per day, which actually is a smart move, in my opinion. Again, these are rumors and still wouldn't belong in the article.

Snowman, you're doing a great job keeping track of the Universal articles. We just need to be careful to keep it to the facts and avoid rumors and speculation. Thanks a lot! :)

Replaceable fair use Image:Nominedeannouncement2009.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Nominedeannouncement2009.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the media 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 this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. feydey (talk) 11:10, 26 February 2009 (UTC)

81st Academy Awards
In response to Jerry Lewis' quote, it was: "I shall pass through this world but once. Any good, therefore, that I can do or any kindness that I can show to any human being, let me do it now. Let me not defer nor neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again!" Thanks!--Snowman Guy (talk) 18:53, 28 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Hi. Thank you so much!  What a great quote!  Apparently, through a Google search, Jerry Lewis was quoting Mohandas Gandhi.  I am curious what you think about this.  Do you think it's appropriate to add that to the 81st Academy Awards article?  Or not really?  In other words, it is not a quote of Lewis himself ... but, rather, a quote of Lewis quoting another (namely, Gandhi).  Do you think that merits mention in the article or no ... in the "memorable quotes" section?  Personally, I do ... and I plan to add it in ... but I just wanted to hear your thoughts, also.  Thanks.  Please reply at my Talk Page.  And thanks again for going back to your video and finding this info out for me!  Much appreciated.   (Joseph A. Spadaro (talk) 19:38, 28 February 2009 (UTC))


 * I believe it could easily be added to the "Notable quotes" section. However, I'm considering whether or not it should also be noted in the article that he was quoting another person. Thoughts?--Snowman Guy (talk) 19:46, 28 February 2009 (UTC)


 * I just added it into the article. And, yes ... I think it's important to note -- as I did -- that Lewis was actually quoting another person.  Thanks.   (Joseph A. Spadaro (talk) 19:59, 28 February 2009 (UTC))

On another subject, I think that a "Notable events" section should be added to the article, but am unsure exactly which events in the telecast should be notable. Comments?--Snowman Guy (talk) 19:48, 28 February 2009 (UTC)


 * I think a "notable events" section is a good idea. Off the top of my head ... these were notable (to me, at least): (1) they used 5 previous winners to award the acting awards ... and each previous winner spoke directly to a current nominee; (2) the whole Ben Stiller and Joaquin Phoenix impersonation was notable ... and I am surprised there is no mention of it yet ... (3) Sid Ganis announced that he is leaving as AMPAS President.  Those are the three that come to mind at this exact moment.  With which, I am sure, some will disagree.  Thanks.   (Joseph A. Spadaro (talk) 19:59, 28 February 2009 (UTC))
 * I think that those all sound notable as well, and I'll go and add them to the article. However, they may need to be referenced. Thanks!--Snowman Guy (talk) 20:05, 28 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Thanks. You may (or may not) be aware ... that the #1 item that I mentioned above (5 veterans award current acting awards) is already mentioned in the article to some degree.  So, you may want to move the info, or change the wording, or delete it, or decide to keep it where it is.  Just wanted to make sure you knew it was already in there, in some form (in the "Premise" section).  Thanks.   (Joseph A. Spadaro (talk) 20:10, 28 February 2009 (UTC))

I've now tryed to improve the article much more by re-formatting the "Presenters and Performers" section into tables and by building up the "Notable events" section. I would like to have some suggestions (or comments) on how the said sections could furthr be improved. Thoughts? Thanks!--Snowman Guy (talk) 03:37, 1 March 2009 (UTC)


 * I think that everything looks great! Thanks for all of the work that you are putting into this article!  I did go in and make some changes ... but it all looks good now, as far as I can see.  By the way ... you may know this, since you have a copy of the Awards ceremony.  For the In Memoriam section, did they actually include specific dates of the memorial?  I know that last year they did so.  Last year, they said something like "In Memoriam --- February 1, 2007, to January 1, 2008" ... or something to that effect.  Did they do the same this year?  Do you know the actual dates that they listed, if they did so?  If they did use actual dates, I would like to add them into the article.  Thanks.  Please let me know at my Talk Page.   (Joseph A.

 * Ditton on my very slow response. Thanks for looking into this for me.  It's rather odd that they (the Academy) did not put the actual dates within the Memoriam.

Hollywood Rip, Ride, Rockit
Hey there. I appreciate all the edits you're making to the article, but I think we may run into problems. First, the "synopsis" is really just a description from the marketing department, which makes it an ad, something that doesn't belong here. Second, the images you're borrowing from other websites borders on plagiarism, since we have no idea what the copyright status of these items are (i.e., we don't know how Theme Park Insider has them). Is it possible to wait just a few more weeks until the attraction does open, then we can stock the article with all the free images we want?

On a related issue, I'm wondering if we should move the article to remove the commas from the name. It doesn't appear that Universal is using them, but I wanted to get your opinions, since you edit these articles as much (if not more) than I do. What do you think?

--McDoobAU93 (talk) 15:40, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

Howl-O-Scream (Tampa Bay)
I fear that your edit summary was so detailed that I was unable to read it in its entirety. Based on what I could read, however, I agree in principle that removing information does not, in and of itself, typically improve an article. However, removing long-unsourced information is a valid method for seeing what we've got on the road to creating a really good article. Did your edit summary suggest a reason for keeping the extensive list of unsourced material in the entry?--otherlleft 01:20, 23 August 2009 (UTC)
 * So how about instead of just restoring the unsourced material, you only restore it when you've done that Google search? That's more in conformance with WIkipedia policy.--otherlleft 01:54, 23 August 2009 (UTC)

Dueling Dragons
Hey Snowman Guy - it looks like your last edit to Dueling Dragons somehow blanked the page. I could see the content in the edit window, but not on the publically visible article. I'm not an expert with Wikipedia coding, so I figured the quickest solution was to restore the previous version of the article where it was visible, and when time permits, someone could investigate what might have happened.

Fair use rationale for File:Universal_express_availability_icon.svg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Universal_express_availability_icon.svg. 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. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, 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. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. 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 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 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. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Rettetast (talk) 20:55, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Zoo Boo
A tag has been placed on Zoo Boo requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.) 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. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

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) 17:53, 19 June 2010 (UTC)

Ride Trade = Intamin
Just to let you know, I noticed in some of your Thrill World articles you have included the manufacturer as Ride Trade. Ride Trade is actually Intamin's flat ride division.

Layout for Forbidden Journey
That's a good idea, but unfortunately I can't. Even though I've been improving the Universal articles recently, I have never been to any of the parks. Living across the other side of the world doesn't particularly help. I gave someone the impression that I work for Universal causing a conflict of interest, so I had to change my username. Anyway, back to the Forbidden Journey (I am not sure), but this might help. It's a concept for a Van Helsing ride in the actual location of Forbidden Journey I found on the Screamscape. To make the layout for Vekoma Junior Coaster 335m (for Flight of the Hippogriff and Road Runner Rollercoaster) I used satellite imagery and Paint.NET's line tool.

Re: Possible Forbidden Journey incident
I guess it should appear in that article but I would hold off on putting it in there until more details are available (such as confirmation from the park). A quick Google News Search found some more articles but not much more information. Themeparkgc (talk) 01:52, 24 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Since the this was only a minor breakdown I go back on my previous statement. If you were to report every time a ride broke down the incident Wikipedia pages would be filled. One person got scared whilst stuck, and called 911, resulting in a breaking news frenzy by the media. Reports are FJ should be back up and running now anyway.

Speedy deletion nomination of CityWalk's Rising Star


A tag has been placed on CityWalk's Rising Star requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject of the article is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding  at the top of the article, immediately below the speedy deletion  tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate), and providing your reasons for contesting on the article's talk page, 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. You may freely add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

USF rewrite
I just thought I'd let you know I've started on the rewrite of the Universal Studios Florida article. I haven't touched the themed areas sections yet, only the stuff outside it. You can see a summary of all of the changes I've made here. Themeparkgc  Talk  09:32, 13 August 2010 (UTC)

 * Actually, I removed the above Afd, and bundled it with the Vampireology book. In fact, I added Mythology, Monsterology, Spyology, and Oceanology all to the same AfD.  As far as I can see, none of those books received notable coverage in secondary sources, and as such should not have their own articles (instead, be redirected to the series page).

83rd Academy Awards
Thanks for the recent contributions to the 83rd Academy Awards article. I was hoping you could help me out on creating sections on the page for Notable events, Notable quotes and Controversies, so the article can be consistent with those of past Oscar ceremonies. I personally think that the Melissa Leo F-bomb was the most notable of the evening, and should be included in at least one of the sections. I am also debating wether it should be included in a Controversies section. I've included links to two articles from ''Yahoo! Movies'' concerning Notable events and quotes on the talk page, which I believe should be referenced. Thanks.--Snowman Guy (talk) 18:40, 1 March 2011 (UTC)


 * Hi. Thanks for the message.  Yeah, I'd be happy to help out.  Just tell me what you have in mind.  I do see that you contribute to this article (and related ones) frequently, as well.  So, thanks!  I myself was going to add in something about the Melissa Leo F-bomb.  But, I assumed that someone would beat me to it, since it was (I think) a rather "big deal".  I can understand your "reluctance" / debate about whether or not it is a, quote, controversy.  I guess it can be considered one, or not.  But, at the end of the day, yes, I would definitely label it a "controversy" myself.  I think that, generally speaking, it invokes controversy when a family-friendly TV show renders the F-bomb.  Shame on her, by the way.  What a way to disgrace yourself, after (while!) winning such a prestigious award!  So, yes ... let me know what you have in mind ... and how I can help.  I actually had a lot of ideas myself (unrelated to your present idea) for the 83rd Awards page ... and for all the other 82 pages, as well.  Please reply at my Talk Page.  Thanks.   (Joseph A. Spadaro (talk) 22:37, 1 March 2011 (UTC))


 * Hi. Sorry for the delay in my response.  Thanks for the detailed posting and ideas.  Due to some unexpected events, I have become a bit side-tracked.  It does not appear that I will have the free time that I had anticipated.  So, I cannot help on this project as much as I originally thought I would be able to.  I will try my best to check in on it, from time to time ... and make some additions and edits.  Hopefully, that will at least help out a little bit.  Thanks!  (Joseph A. Spadaro (talk) 20:35, 10 March 2011 (UTC))


 * Thanks for the response. Unfortunately, I do not have the time to edit this information into the article as well. However, I would consider posting the ideas on the article's talk page so that other editors can add them if they find it significant. Thanks!--Snowman Guy (talk) 03:55, 11 March 2011 (UTC)


 * Thanks. Sorry for the delay in response.  Yes, I agree.  It's a good idea to post these thoughts and ideas on the Talk Page.  That way, any editor with free time can take it and run with it, if they want to include this material into the article.  Wish I could have been more helpful.  But, my "free time" for Wikipedia has been greatly reduced lately.  Thanks!   (Joseph A. Spadaro (talk) 23:59, 24 March 2011 (UTC))

Categories
I just noticed the category structure that you are creating. This is something I've been meaning to do for a while. May I suggest though, that the structure be slightly changed to be a bit more like Category:Roller coasters by opening year with all the years in one category rather than split up by decade. I'll make the change if you want. Finally, it might be worth enabling WP:HOTCAT for your account so you can quickly change those categories. Regards Themeparkgc   Talk  21:47, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:RocktheUniverse2010Sign.JPG, which you've sourced to license-holder is the owner of the sign or the artist, not the photographer. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
 * make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
 * Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to , stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add OTRS pending to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to .

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at File copyright tags, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in [ your upload log]. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy.

 * There do not appear to be independent reliable sources that establish the notability of this stage show. Tagged as unreferenced for almost four years.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist.

Although it was not proposed for deletion by me, I thought you might like to know. Themeparkgc   Talk  08:44, 7 August 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Oscar Sunday


A tag has been placed on Oscar Sunday requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organized event (tour, function, meeting, party, etc.), 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. Under 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 that your 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. ...William 16:21, 24 February 2013 (UTC)

WikiProject Amusement Parks Article Clean-Up
Recently, an issue has been brought up regarding the notability of many articles within WikiProject Amusement Parks. As a result, a page has been created regarding this issue as well as a possible solution (which will be on-going). In a nut-shell, certain articles will be picked to be reviewed in each stage and the WikiProject members (you) will decide if the article should be deleted or kept based on Wikipedia's notability guidelines.

I hoping this will work and if it doesn't, oh well...I tried.

More info can be found on the linked page above.--MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 00:27, 21 March 2014 (UTC) Sent by Dom497

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:PWZScore.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:PWZScore.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.
