'u' voice parts
Happy 2013. Do you agree with this? Thanks for any advice (please reply on my talk page). -- Ssilvers (talk) 08:46, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately I'm not very familiar with the nuances between voice types and it's more than 2 yeara ago I heard the opera. What is your source for this? This isn't mentioned on the handout. Targaryen  speak or forever remain silent 12:50, 8 January 2013 (UTC)


 * I added the voice parts after someone wrote this on the opera's talk page, and I think they are right. So I listened to the voices on the available YouTube clips, which are the only evidence of the vocal demands in the score that I know of.  The producers do not seem to have published a listing of what voice types are assigned to each role.  Nevertheless, I think that the voice types can be reasonably ascertained by listening to the clips, and although the YouTube clips are primary sources, and a secondary source would be better, it is reasonable to make the assignment that I did. However, if anyone disagrees with me, then I would say that, as reasonable people can disagree when listening to these primary sources, then we should not list them until we have a source that gives greater certainty.  Sounds ok?  -- Ssilvers (talk) 17:44, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
 * That's ok with me but then again I'm not up to speed with discerning voice types. I trust your judgement on this. It doesn't follow the usual sourcing requirements but not everything has to be backed by a RS. Mentioning that grass is green and the sky is blue doesn't need a scientific source supporting these claims. Targaryen  speak or forever remain silent 17:53, 8 January 2013 (UTC)

Adrianus Johannes Lemmens
With all the help and assistance there has been on this page, do you find the page on Adrianus Johannes Lemmens now acceptable or not or do I need to get hold of a moderator instead? Many thanks Glemmens1940 (talk) 14:33, 30 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Not acceptable. The Banner talk 18:23, 30 March 2013 (UTC)

Your re-insertion of the graphic violates WP:BRD. When you disagree with content that has been removed, you should state your concern on talk and seek consensus. The graphic and caption violate WP policy with respect to promotional content. It is OK for you to disagree but not to re-insert the content before using talk. Please review the policy at WP:BRD and remove the content until consensus is reached supporting your view. The fact that you are not affiliated is irrelevant. Thanks.

 * "this essay is not a policy or guideline itself". I didn't violate 3RR which is a policy. Please stop your Wikilawyering. But I'll leave it at that, it isn't at all important to me. No desire to get in a pointless fight. Targaryen  speak or forever remain silent 20:22, 25 April 2013 (UTC)

Input request
Hello Targaryen,

I am requesting input from all participants in the discussion from the recent Signpost article on sexism in Wikipedia for a proposal at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Football/National teams. Thank you in advance for any contributions to the discussion. Dkreisst (talk) 21:21, 9 May 2013 (UTC)

Hotel Polen fire
Hi Targaryen. (In English and Dutch as I citate nlwp) I was under the impression that the page on nlwp (nl:Brand in Hotel Polen) was right: "Het pand aan het Rokin was van de hand van architect Eduard Cuypers, die ook het pand van het Algemeen Handelsblad aan de Nieuwezijds Voorburgwal en Spui 10 op zijn naam heeft staan. Het ontwerp wordt echter vaak ten onrechte aan zijn oom Pierre Cuypers toegeschreven." I guess that should be changed as well then if you really think that's not true? With regards, Trijnstel talk 16:33, 10 May 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm unsure, the TU Delft page mentions Pierre Cuypers as the architect but when I visit the NAI page in the Wayback Machine (as the page is currently unavailable) it lists Ed. Cuypers as the architect. Maybe I missed this when I wrote Hotel Polen fire originally but this should be possible to research by someone with the right sources. So keep the (feit) template for now. Targaryen  speak or forever remain silent 17:05, 10 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Okay, thanks! (And sorry, forget to add a topic name...) Trijnstel talk 18:21, 10 May 2013 (UTC)

U1s
Sure you wouldn't like to reconsider? If this is about the AfD above, I understand that AfDs can be terse, but I don't believe the "Advertising." comment by the nominator was aimed at you so much as his or her impression of the article--in other words, I doubt it was intended as a personal insult. In any case, I'll weigh in at that AfD in a moment, and I wish you well whether you decide to stay or go. Best regards, --j⚛e deckertalk 00:15, 6 June 2013 (UTC)
 * I never check who has written an article when nominating it. I simply judge the article and come up with my personal verdict upon that article. No insults intended. The Banner talk 14:07, 6 June 2013 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Template:El


A tag has been placed on Template:El requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section T3 of the criteria for speedy deletion because it is a deprecated or orphaned template. After seven days, if it is still unused and the speedy deletion tag has not been removed, the template will be deleted.

If the template is intended to be substituted, please feel free to remove the speedy deletion tag and please consider putting a note on the template's page indicating that it must be substituted so as to avoid any future mistakes.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page's talk page, where you can 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. Lfdder (talk) 17:36, 11 September 2013 (UTC)

Please stop delinking redlinks
Please review WP:REDLINK and try to leave edit summaries when you edit. -Thibbs (talk) 22:04, 19 September 2013 (UTC)
 * What part of WP:REDLINK are you finding so confusing? It doesn't matter how "ludicrous" you find it that only 2 of the games are redlinked instead of none or all of them. Unless you are suggesting that the topics you've delinked aren't notable enough to have their own article you should not be delinking them. Regarding your lack of edit summaries, just look at your edit history. 7 of the last 50 edits have edit summaries. This seems to be habitual for you. If you are delinking terms because you think they are non-notable then say so in your summary to avoid being reverted. Without a summary it seriously appears that you are delinking them just because you disagree with or fail to understand the WP:REDLINK guideline. -Thibbs (talk) 01:13, 20 September 2013 (UTC)
