RFA thanks
Thank you for your support at my recent successful RFA.

24 DVD covers
Hey, I just noticed all the covers for the 24 DVD images have been changed, with the previous versions being deleted. Now don't take any offense to this, but why did you change them? Since 24 is an American show, it's most logical and best practice to use region 1 covers (they also don't feature all those ugly logos on them). The color scheme for the infobox and episode list are also derived from the region 1 covers. I understand the region 4 covers do feature other cast members besides Bauer, but there is already cast images present in the article to display that season's cast. I was wondering if this could be switched back? Thanks. Drovethrughosts (talk) 01:51, 7 December 2011 (UTC)


 * Hey there. I uploaded over the other versions of the DVD covers for a few reasons, the other images were too large and looked a bit odd (they seemed three-dimensional) and not flat. I agree with you about the logos though, so perhaps we could use the DVD covers from Region 2 instead (same image but without the massive classification logo)? They're shown here. We can always update the infoboxes. I was actually thinking about rewriting the season articles at some point either way. I have to say that stuff like this is way too long. Steven Crossin  Join the DR army! 02:02, 7 December 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm still in favor of using the region 1 covers (for the reasons I listed above and that's what was originally there). I can't remember how large they were, but they should be 250px in the infobox, as currently they're like 192px which is too small. If you don't object, I'd like to upload the region 1 covers. I'll have them be 250px and will use flat images. Drovethrughosts (talk) 14:15, 7 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Hm, I am afraid I'm going to have to disagree here. It's true that it's an American TV show, yes, but it is distributed worldwide, and if possible our articles should demonstrate that. Region 1 (which has the cover art you suggest) is USA and Canada only, where regions 2 and 4 (which have the alternative cover art I suggested encompasses (from the DVD region article) Europe (except Russia, Ukraine, and Belarus), Middle East, Egypt, Japan, South Africa, Swaziland, Lesotho, Greenland, French Overseas departments and territories for region 2, and Mexico, South America, Central America, Caribbean, New Zealand, Australia, Papua New Guinea and most of Oceania for region 4. I also note that originally, the articles had no DVD covers at all, instead the cast photo was used in the info box. We have a few options here. A composite image in the info box (displaying the two alternate covers side by side) won't work with our non-free content policies, so that's out. I noticed the season articles for the TV series House uses alternate region covers (season 1 uses region 2, season 2 uses region 4, season 3 uses region 1 etc) but that's a bit inconsistent. We could also use a screenshot from a major event or plot within the season, and use that in the info box, or we could try and locate a promotional poster for each season and use that in the info box, or we could revert back to the cast photo in the info box (which represents the season much better than a DVD cover anyways. As for the resolution of the pictures, we've been standardizing portrait images to 200px for a while (see the info boxes of Allison Taylor, Jack Bauer and Bill Buchanan as a few examples) so we could always bump the resolution up to 200px. If we revert back to the cast image, 300px was the norm, so we could always do that instead. Steven Crossin  Join the DR army! 21:16, 7 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Then I guess I'm in favor in reinstating the cast images. The cast images were actually used in those articles for as long as I can remember until just a few months ago. Agree on using the cast images for infobox instead? Drovethrughosts (talk) 13:39, 8 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Yep, that sounds good to me. Steven Crossin  Join the DR army! 23:26, 8 December 2011 (UTC)

Any chance you would be opposed to using this image instead as the promo poster for the season 7 article? It was main promo poster for that season (used in both region DVD covers), and well, looks better. Opinion? Drovethrughosts (talk) 16:00, 12 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Well, not to be anal, but "better" is of course subjective. Indeed, I picked the alternative poster because I thought it looked better, with the reflecting image of the Washington Monument and all. He's also in the attire that he appeared in for quite a few promo images (such as the one in the Jack Bauer infobox). I suppose my answer is, not opposed, but I prefer this image. Which I realise is not much of an answer, but it's the best I can do in my caffeine deprived state :) <font face="Verdana"><font color="#078330">Steven <font color="#2875b0">Crossin  <font color="#d67f0f">Join the DR army! 20:29, 12 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Okay, no big deal, was just wondering. It can be left as is. Season articles do look nice though with those posters. Drovethrughosts (talk) 23:18, 12 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Yeah they do. They'd look a lot better with a [{WP:FL|little golden star]] in the top right corner :). I feel it's a shame something like an infobox image kicked up such a storm, that time could've been used actually improving the article itself. Well, what can we do. <font face="Verdana"><font color="#078330">Steven <font color="#2875b0">Crossin  <font color="#d67f0f">Join the DR army! 23:21, 12 December 2011 (UTC)

24 Redemption poster

 * Hello again, I found a source for the film poster: http://www.impawards.com/tv/twenty_four_redemption.html. In the film project, we try to use the original poster as they showcase how a film was promoted on it's release opposed to later on it's career. Using a film poster also eliminates arguments over which Region DVD cover should be used as this poster focuses on the original release date. As for that website you gave me with genres, it also refers to "TV Series" as a genre so I wouldn't call it appropriate. Rotten Tomatoes also calls some films as "Foreign" as a genre which is inappropriate as well. Can we keep it action for now? Andrzejbanas (talk) 04:04, 7 December 2011 (UTC)


 * Hmm, I personally tend to favour DVD covers, but I see the guideline does recommend film posters instead. As for the genre, it doesn't bother me that much. Action fits well, and while I feel major aspects of the film qualify as drama as well and aren't really covered by the Action genre, am happy to concede on that. The film poster should be below 250 x 375 px though. I'll poke an admin to get the details sorted out. <font face="Verdana"><font color="#078330">Steven <font color="#2875b0">Crossin  <font color="#d67f0f">Join the DR army! 04:24, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

Plant sources
Steven,

Happened to see your query on Casliber's talk page and thought I'd let you know about the Biodiversity Heritage Library and Botanicus. Both have full text of a number of botanical journals. They have a taxonomic search function, so it can be a great way to find a journal article with a description of a particular species and get a short article started.

Mentorship info
Howdy Steve. It's been suggested at my Rfc/U, that I could use a mentor, around British & Irish political articles. How does one go about acquiring one? GoodDay (talk) 02:35, 10 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Hmm, well one would generally approach a user who they wish to be their mentor and ask them directly. It's only generally in cases where ArbCom imposes mentors on users that the mentoree has no real say in who their mentors is. I have a program that I use to teach users the ropes on Wikipedia, so I'm not sure if this will be of any help to you, but let me know either way. I'm reasonably free at the moment.

 * Howabout you? as a mentor? GoodDay (talk) 07:28, 10 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Hmm....in theory I could. I'm not overly familiar with you at all, the areas you edit or the concerns that were raised at the RFC/U. I think the first thing I need to know is how you think mentorship will help you, that it's something you'd take seriously and be willing to have conditions imposed, if necessary. While I haven't read over the RFC carefully yet, I do note that many were in favour of a mentorship option, but others advocated blocking or outright topic bans. It'd be helpful if you could provide me a brief summary of the issues that got you to this point, as well as what you plan to do in future to prevent these issues from happening again. That's the main purpose of mentorship, guiding you along and ultimately keeping you out of trouble, but you need to help yourself at the same time. If you could answer these few questions while I read over the RFC that would be good.

 * I basically need help in formulating my concerns on those articles, whenever such concerns come up. My past presentations have met with 'negative' responses. GoodDay (talk) 08:19, 10 December 2011 (UTC)
 * A mentor can't really help you formulate your arguments for you. They can, however, better help you understand policy so you are able to make proper, reasonable comments that are within policy. I am hoping you can answer the rest of my questions, however. <font face="Verdana"><font color="#078330">Steven <font color="#2875b0">Crossin  <font color="#d67f0f">Join the DR army! 08:23, 10 December 2011 (UTC)
 * My major 'shortcoming' is that I've no empathy for the political sensivities of British & Irish editors, at those articles. I have (since Nov 21, 2011) been practicing restraint, by keeping myself out of the current varies squabbles on those articles (an example: Wales). -- GoodDay (talk) 08:47, 10 December 2011 (UTC)

I can see from the RFC you have had some issues with these articles. What I'm not really seeing is an understanding for the need to change. Mentorship should not be taken lightly, it's generally a lesser sanction as opposed to say, an outright topic ban or blocking. What I want to know is how you think I can help you? Do you want me to guide you through policy, do you want to use me as a sounding board before you engage in discussions or is it something else. I cannot help you change the minds of others, that is what discussion is for. But I can help guide you where possible. I noticed on your RFC you stated you didn't want your mentor to tell you not to contribute to these articles. While I agree in the long term, I think that taking a break for a little while (say a month) may help us turn things around. Tempers are still hot, and while it's not just you in the wrong, often taking the high road is best. We will spend that month working on other things. If that doesn't work for you, then I'm afraid I can't really help much. <font face="Verdana"><font color="#078330">Steven <font color="#2875b0">Crossin  <font color="#d67f0f">Join the DR army! 22:07, 11 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Taking a month off, is reasonable. I would like to use ya as a sounding board. If I have any future concerns about those articles, I'd like to get your opinon on how to approach those articles with those concerns. Guide me on how to post those concerns in a way that won't get heated responses. GoodDay (talk) 22:13, 11 December 2011 (UTC)

 * No matter. I'm sure we can come up with something to help show that you can change, and give you ways to express your views on these articles without creating conflict. It's not that hard.

 * We're from different areas of the world, and have different areas of expertise. I think us working in tandem would be beneficial.

Go to this page and add this line of code to it:, then clear your cache. When you have done that, you should see a new button in the edit toolbar (curly brackets).

As one of GoodDays mentors I would like to inform you that I have reservations about the suitability of his other mentor DBD. I have left him a message on his talk page and would appreciate it if you could take a look at it. talk:DBD#Goodday.27s mentor. Thanks. Carson101 (talk) 16:04, 29 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Eh, would I have edited the article myself? No, I tend to offer guidance, observe and discuss more than anything. But I don't disagree with his actions. Simply undoing an edit with the equivalent of "I disagree" when an edit has been made with reasoning isn't really following BRD at all. Nevertheless, I've added the page to my watchlist and will keep my eyes peeled.
