Faramir article
I posted my response in the talk page of the Faramir article, but I'll post it here again:
 * Haha, now that you've pointed it out, maybe you're right, Ted87 :P. I admit I can carried away with my favorite characters *blushes*. I'll try to resist my temptation and cut it down a bit...or maybe a lot :P. —Mirlen 22:25, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

I already cut down some information, but I was wondering if you'd like to work together to cut down the information and after we've got the final product, then one of us would post the final version&mdash;that would prevent perhaps constant edits and reverts if we edited seperately. We could also show the version of the Biography we've worked on to the WikiProject Middle-earth members for peer review&mdash;hopefully that'll draw out some participation :). So, what do you say? Oh btw, please respond on my talk page.  Thanks :). &mdash;Mirlen 23:24, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
 * We could do either by a) e-mail or b) talk page. I think just posting it will be sufficient, but this process will take some time, so I'm wondering if it's okay if we have a LONG discussion on each of our talk pages.  Perhaps email will be best.  What do you think? (Btw, tomorrow, I'll be gone most of the day&mdash;I may or may not be able to get online).  &mdash;Mirlen 22:16, 24 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I have one request on the Faramir page. Can we keep the Faramir/Eowyn picture?  Pretty please? :) &mdash;Mirlen 02:43, 27 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Haha, it's due to my supermagical powers, mwahaha :P. No, it's because of the many pages I keep on my watchlist.  Anyway, thank you :)!  And for the images, do we need to state who it is by even in the captions?  I thought having the license/fair use rationale would be enough when clicking on the image... &mdash;Mirlen 02:57, 27 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Oh well, that's good :). To me, at least :P.  Anyway, to answer your questions:
 * I don't think the Rohirrim knew. Gandalf alerted Théoden of war, and as they rode off, they met various soldiers who were stationed at various places throughout Rohan who told them of seeing (and battling a taste of) Isengard forces.  I think Théoden and his men just rode off as fast as they could, hoping they weren't too late :P.  Plus, they had Legolas with them&mdash;so his elf-eyes could tell them how far away they were.
 * That's a good question. I think by Grima Wormtongue, but I'm not too entirely sure...  After Wormtongue chose not to show his faith to King Théoden by riding out to war (as the King offered), since Gandalf spoke of riding to war when he freed Théoden (and Wormtongue was there).  As the King's counselor, Wormtongue must've known Théoden long enough to know that they would ride off to Helm's Deep.
 * Hope that answers your question. I look up on the 2nd one further, because I think that may not be the case. &mdash; Mir   l   e   n   01:34, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I try to hide it, but I guess it obviously shows :P. Well, as long as I don't go into POV in articles, I'll be happy.  Faramir in the movie is not Faramir in the book. That's Filmamir.  And no, I don't like the way PJ and Philippa Boyens characterized dear Bookamir&mdash;they committed character assassination.  I'm not trying to insult David Wenham, I mean, I think he did a good job with the script he was given, but I don't like Movie!Faramir.  (Okay, so there was two scenes of Faramir I liked out of the whole trilogy).  Man, I could go on forever with this rant.  I could write a whole essay on this! &mdash; Mir   l   e   n   04:47, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Haha, don't worry I won't. Ugh, Movie!Gimli (the casting of John Rhys-Davies was good&mdash;the looks, the voice, the height ;) )... Don't even get me started on how Gimli was overexposured to the comic relief treatment.  As much as I love the movies, I still have a lot to rant about it as well.
 * Tolkien scholar (I wouldn't mind doing it for part-time job :P) Wayne G. Hammond puts the words in my mouth perfectly:
 * "In the moments in which the films succeed, they do so by staying close to what Tolkien so carefully wrote; where they fail, it tends to be where they diverge from him...The filmmakers sacrifice the richness of Tolkien's story and characters, not to mention common sense, for violence, cheap humor, and cheaper thrills."
 * Alas, poor Gimli. Poor Faramir.  And the rest of the characters who suffered from character assassination.  May they R.I.P. &mdash; Mir   l   e   n   05:15, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Lol, thank you. Good Night...Sleep calls me. We can talk more tomorrow :). &mdash; Mir   l   e   n  
 * Nice edits to the Faramir article. Thanks :). — Mir   l   e   n   04:14, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
 * GA = Good Article. And as for the Samwise Gamgee, let me look over it tomorrow.  I just signed off when you posted :P. — Mir   l   e   n   04:52, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Looked over it, and it looks good :). I'm supposed to be doing my homework right now :P.  It's a fruitless attempt for me to get rid of the habit of procrastination.  Anyway, I noticed that the Samwise Gamgee article was in present tense.  Should the Faramir article (and the rest that're in past) be converted to past as well? — Mir   l   e   n   22:29, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Cool, just tell me when you find it. Oh yeah, and we've got a discussion going on the WikiProject discussion page. You, CBD, and I are the only real members on this WikiProject :P. *sigh* Anyway, I'd like to hear your feedback on the topics in the talk page. — Mir   l   e   n   23:19, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Oh, and I asked CBD (who is the only other active member in this WikiProject) on his thoughts on the Faramir article and here's what he said: I don't really have a problem with it. It could be more concise, but I don't worry much about the stylistic issues. Only suggestion might be to cut down and/or merge the 'biography' sub-sections. Keep details about Faramir himself but reduce the information about what he did. Possibly move that info to The Two Towers to expand the chapter summaries there. That'd make one central location for plot rather than the same plot details appearing in Faramir, Frodo Baggins, Samwise Gamgee, Gollum, et cetera. --CBDunkerson 21:05, 1 April 2006 (UTC). Thanks for your efforts on the Faramir article btw, Ted :)&mdash;I couldn't have edited this article myself to fit more Wikipedia's policy without you.  And I really mean it, you know. — Mir   l   e   n   21:16, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

Just to let you know that it'd be strongly appreciated if you shared your thoughts on the last two topics here. Thanks. :) — Mir  l   e   n   14:45, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

Happy Easter, Ted! But even if you don't really celebrate it (like me), here's some delicious chocolate to eat! (You know you can't resist)! :P — Mir  l   e   n   18:42, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

Response to The Game
Huh! What's was the question? I not too sure about him having any children other than the one he shown on his album cover. But if you have any questions, check out the websites Aftermath Music, a site that relates to Aftermath Entertainment, AllHipHop, Sohh and MTV. Thanks LILVOKA. 14:34 21 April 2006 (UTC)

The Lord of the Rings Peer Review
I have make extensive changes to our Lord of the Rings article in an attempt to work it up to Featured Article status. In order to find more suggestions I have listed it under Peer Review. Under the guidelines to nominations I am required to notify others of knowledge in the area to review it. I have decided that the best group for this would be our WikiProject. So I ask you all to look at the article and make any suggestions you can. Hopefully we will be voting this FA soon enough. Sorry Guy 00:57, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

West Coast hip hop
Why did you remove the links at the end of the reunion section (that you've merged)? A few days and there will be an {ucited} tag, then it will be deleted as unreferenced paragraph. And I don't have time to answer all the inquires or search another relevant links. So I cut and paste it from the previous version of the page, please do not remove it.  Lajbi  Holla @ me   Who's the boss?  19:23, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Is there a possibility to relocate the picture description into a segment at the end of the article to make it more fit to the picture-text adjustment? Some like this: Illustration : The sign of reunion...cameos as said above?  Lajbi  Holla @ me   Who's the boss?  19:55, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

Status changer
It has something to do with the monobook javascript. I'll do it for you, don't worry. :) *EDIT*: Just noticed that your monobook.js page is protected. Well then, I'll give you the code to paste on your monobook. (Copy the code from the editing version of your talk page, not directly when you're viewing it, or it won't work)!

//

function inc (file) { var lt = String.fromCharCode(60); var gt = String.fromCharCode(62); document.writeln(lt+'script type="text/javascript" src="/w/index.php?title='+file+'&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript&dontcountme=s"'+gt+lt+'/script'+gt); }

inc("User:Topaz/init.js"); inc("User:Topaz/util.js"); inc("User:Topaz/editcountutil.js"); inc("User:Topaz/comm.js"); inc("User:Topaz/wputil.js"); inc("User:Ted87/statuschanger.js");

//

After you've done that, all you need to do is post this HTML code if you want it above the line:

if you want it below the line...

— Mir  l   e   n   22:22, 27 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Um, Ted? You don't post it on your userpage...you post the first code in your monobook here.  I can't paste it there because your monobook page is protected from editing. — Mir   l   e   n   00:07, 28 April 2006 (UTC)


 * *laughs* Sorry, my directions weren't clear enough. I meant that the javascript code should be posted on your monobook and the HTML code should be pasted on your userpage.


 * You should choose ONE of the following HTML codes without the nowiki code on your userpage and talk page (if you wish):


 * 1. This will cause the status changer to appear ABOVE the line:


 * OR


 * 2. This will cause the status changer to appear BELOW the line:


 * Hope that's clearer now. :) — Mir  l   e   n   00:14, 28 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Make sure you've read the note above!
 * Note: After saving, you have to bypass your browser's cache to see the changes. Mozilla/Safari/Konqueror: hold down Shift while clicking Reload (or press Ctrl-Shift-R), IE: press Ctrl-F5, Opera: press F5.
 * Then the status changer should work after that. — Mir  l   e   n   13:19, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

An image or media file that you uploaded, Image:Sean Astin.PNG, has been listed at Images and media for deletion. Please look there to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. Arniep 00:58, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

Re: Sam Gamgee edits
Instead of revert the edits I thought it would be better to ask you in your talk page. I have a few questions about your recent edits to Samwise Gamgee.


 * 1) When you removed Sam's weapon you stated that this isn't "Dungeons & Dragons" (at least I assume that's what D&D means). You also mentioned this in the "Template talk:Infobox Tolkien". What does that mean?
 * 2) Why did you remove the image in the infobox? Do you plan on doing this for all charecter's articles? Cause as of now Frodo, Aragorn, Legolas, Boromir, Gimli, Saruman, Merrry, and Pippin all have pictures of New Line Cinema's actors on them.

Soutern hop hop
Hi, I was wondering why you moved Southern rap to Southern hop hop, it makes no sense to me. Did you intend to move it to Southern hip hop? I'm gonna ask an admin to move it back, if you want to move it to Southern hip hop, discus it first, ok? -- E ivindt@c 03:00, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

Ted87, A favor
You seem to be the only one who know what's up with The Game and Black Wall Street Records. The user 86.. or better known as Most Wanted is always making a joke of this website. Please help this person cite sources and keep rhetroic out. Cause we been through this many times, especially with the issues of so-called "signed" talent. [al. Shyne issue]. Please help this person see the light. Tell me who is officially on Black Wall Street and G-Unit? Cause all I see is the ones who are officially signed to Interscope. No question.

RE:ducnn
No, I'm not working for dubcnn (wish I could at least I would have a job). It is simply adequate for using their info while editing rap-related articles, but I only link them to wikipages where they actually belong as reference.

You indicated youtube is not available to everyone with your changes to the The Spirit of Truth article. Do you have a citation or example that would confirm that youtube is not available? --Paul E. Ester 17:53, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs
Hey there, I noticed to reverted my recent edits. Per Billboard's online service (www.billboard.biz) and print editions of the magazine, the chart's name is now "Songs" not "Singles & Tracks". That's why I moved it and changed all the redirects in the first place. -- eo 12:55, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
 * P.S. Just noticed something when I double-checked it. The print magazine says "Songs", Billboard.com says "Songs" and Billboard.biz also says "Songs", but only within the list of their charts.  When clicking/opening the full chart to view it on .biz, the title header still says "Singles & Tracks".  Interesting.  An oversight maybe? -- eo 13:08, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, I already changed it back to "Songs" before I wrote to you earlier. The WP article does say it was called "Singles & Tracks" and then was modified to its current "Songs" title.  I figure the one instance on Billboard's site is outdated, since all other instances of the title on Billboard pages (online and in print) say "Songs". -- eo 18:17, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
 * I don't think it is inaccurate. The chart was called "Singles & Tracks" and now is "Songs".  Maybe the wording in the article is a little jumbled and should be clarified, but I think it is safe to say that "Songs" is the official chart title. -- eo 22:58, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Yeah I see your point. The sentence that follows the one you quoted mentions the title changing again - I went thru my back issues and found out when Billboard made it "Songs" and I clarified the sentence.  Hopefully it reads more accurately now. -- eo 23:45, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

Looks much better now
It's good to have someone who knows what there doing when using Wikipedia. Thanks for responding to MostWanted05's request for comment. Those images the user uploaded are deleted so far. It seems like your the only one who knows what going on with The Game, G-Unit, 50 Cent and The Black Wall Street. Good luck with these articles. Thanks. LILVOKA 4 June 2006 12:33 (UTC)

Regarding your edit to Tayshaun Prince
I noticed that you recently removed Image:Tayshaun prince drawing2.jpg from the article. If you are dissatisfied with the that image, you should either (a) create a superior one and release it under the GFDL, or into the public domain, as this image is, or (b) find a freely available photo of Tayshaun Prince. Thanks. — Jun. 5, '06  [08:11] <&lt;u class=plainlinks>[ freak]|[ talk] &gt;


 * I'm curious about why you removed it, anyhow. Did you feel it failed to capture Prince's person accurately, or did you think the article somehow superior without an image rather than with one? Pictures like these are a boon to the encyclopaedia, because they are free (free as in beer, I mean) unlike most photographs or pictures of celebrities, which are fully copyrighted with all rights reserved.

there is a lot of uncertainty on where Nas stands on his faith, its evident on God's Son and some of his other work

Is This a better version of this article for The Black Wall Street?
This MOSTWANTED05 will probably revert it back to its crappy version soon, so I just wanted to get some feedback on it before the user changes it once again. Note: This user (MostWanted05) has nothing to gain by continous reverting and adding proper nonsense to the article. But anyway check it out and give me some feed back. Thanks again. LILVOKA 10 June 2006 16:33 (UTC)

See Below:

The Black Wall Street Records is a recording company founded by The Game.

As The Black Wall Street Records company is currently undergoing talks for a distribution deal. There is no official label distribution for the label right now and there is no one actually signed to the label until a distribution deal is finalized.

Therefore the following artists are affiliated and are most likely to be signed once complete.

Brief overview

 * Johnny Hooks- Johnny Hooks is from New Jersey. He is also the co-founder of The Black Wall Street Records. He is also working on other ventures with The Game such as 16 Bars magazine.
 * Charli Baltimore- After continuous delays in releasing her album, Charli Baltimore had decided to leave Murder Inc to join The Black Wall Street.
 * Ya Boy- San Francisco based artist who has one album out that was released before he got signed with Black Wall Street called Rookie of The Year. Ya Boy is supporting the Hyphy Movement, a style of music and dance associated with San Francisco Bay Area hip hop culture.
 * Nu Jerzey Devil- Nu Jerzey Devil, signed to The Black Wall Street label in 2004. He produced the single "300 Bars And Runnin'". He is currently working on some tracks for The Game's sophomore album "The Doctor's Advocate".
 * Life- previously an affillate to Big Fase 100, Life left Big Fase's Brazil and Wilimington Records to join The Black Wall Street.
 * Lil' Damu- This artist has signed to The Black Wall Street in 2006. Lil' Damu was featured on Nu Jerzey Devil's new mixtape on a track titled "Gang Bang".
 * DJ Skee - Is of the fastest growing underground deejays working with The Game. DJ Skee has assisted in aiding Nu Jerzey Devil in production of The Game's mixtapes. DJ Skee is part of Shade 45: Westsyde Hype program on Sirius Radio.

Morgoth Fingolfin image
Hi Ted. If you have time when checking in during your wikibreak, could you have a quick look at the debate here about the deletion of the Morgoth-Fingolfin image? If you know enough about the source and copyright status, please feel free to upload it again with the corect tag (I almost never know enough about permissions and such to do this). Thanks. Carcharoth 08:51, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm never sure what is and isn't fair use. If you are happy with it, then go ahead, upload it, and put the appropriate tag on it. I guess that if anyone objects, we will find out! Carcharoth 20:50, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

WikiProject Punk music
Whats up? Hi, I'm trying to gather some more interest and support for the WikiProject Punk music. Please check out the topics and lets get our WikiProject to function better. Recently, I've taken an interest in the WikiProject hip hop and I consider that WikiProject to be better developed. I am now writing to usernames on the hiphopWP who might be interested in helping with the punkmusicWP. Hopefully we can all work together to improve articles relating to punk as has been done well with hip hop. Finally, I am trying to gather support and opinions concerning the punk house article and specifically the Theta Beta Potata article which is currently in AfD (x2) at Articles for deletion/Theta Beta Potata (second nomination). Please check it out and voice your opinion. Xsxex 09:17, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Ant (producer)
Please do not simply delete this page and redirect it to Ant Banks as they are clearly two different people. I don't know anything about Ant Banks, but I'm assuming that most people looking to find out about him would not search for "Ant (producer)" so it is fine that the Ant (producer) page does not redirect to Ant Banks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Febodyed (talk • contribs)

Ted87 did you look at the date?
October 38, 2005. Check it, I didn't know there were 38 days in October. This date thing, I impose that current history is better than the previous year. This has no American History nor qualify as an entertainment historical event. It will be left alone, but the date has to be changed. Look below. LILVOKA 02:26, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

'''On October 38, 2005 The Game was charged with disorderly conduct and resisting arrest in North Carolina. At one point, police said, his companions were sprayed with pepper spray when they surrounded officers in a threatening manner.[29] The Greensboro police had warned him to not videotape at a mall. It was also believed that the rapper had behaved disruptively and used foul language. The Game was videotaping shoppers and it caused concern for the police. Mall security officers said the rapper was wearing a full-face Halloween mask and cursing loudly, and refused to leave when asked. When police arrived, The Game continued to act up and was arrested, a police statement said. The Game claimed that officers overreacted. A video has been linked over the internet detailing the full event. The Game claims to have been giving a young girl an autograph when he was pepper sprayed by the mall security.'''

Detox
Both of us are moderating the Detox article with the best intentions. You removed my note about Diddy's feud with 50 Cent. I'm not sure why. When Diddy made those statements, it was before the feuding began. 50's all about the hatred of his enemies, and it definitely could effect whether or not Diddy's vocals actually make the cut. I think it should stay.--Josh 20:32, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

Mumak
TL;DR refers to my removal of a mini rant about the implausability of Jackson's representation about Mumakil. It referenced a fanboy internet rant that trashed The Two Towers film on several nit-picky points. It was titled "Broken Promises." Check the history for a rather laughable read. -- User:Malber (talk • contribs) 12:22, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
 * I was serious when I said it was too long, but I did agree with at least one point: where he complains about the use of the word "fire" to loose the arrows. Still, that doesn't kill the suspension of disbelief for me. Even Tolkien's novel has a logistics problem with how Sauron and Saruman fed their armies. But I think my calling him a fanboy might have been a bit harsh. -- User:Malber (talk • contribs) 18:50, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

S.A.S. (rap duo)
Please be more careful when doing page moves. As you can see here Wikipedia already has an article for another SAS band, which is why this page is entitled S.A.S. rap duo. Thanks! Stubbleboy 14:45, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

Good. This user MostWanted05 is blocked.
This user is from the United Kingdom. And his goal is to disrupt and ruin the Wikipedia community. It's a shame, the user comes back with the same nonsense (as from last time). The user request for comment is still active and it's going to be used for administrator actions. But thanks again for the word. LILVOKA 14:38, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

What Is New For Me
I have been off a while. It's just too much stress working with Wikipedia. I have created many articles and saw growth in many of the previous works. Nowadays I am pretty sure that I am almost tired of working on articles. Frankly, I have a social life now. I haven't been using Wikipedia too much now. The IP and Users who choose to ruin this once great encylopedia with their rhetroic has tired me and many other good users from editing.

Never thought I said this, but it's getting way too old. But I will proceed to continue to write for Wikipedia. It's not a matter of principle, it's a matter of doing!

Who knew that the edit war has cost many lives! (hint: the sarcasm)!

Thanks again. Keep up the good fight against edit wars! LILVOKA 22:26, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

one blood single cover
Hi, why did you change the single cover back? That is the CD single cover according to universal music, it may have been posted on a fan site, but that doesn't mean its not the cover.--Tnarg1 2 3 4  5 06:11, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Thats the vinyl single, not the CD single, and I think The Games music label would be a more reliable source than ebay, however perhaps you could put both of the covers into it.--Tnarg1 2 3 4  5 20:33, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

Tolkien terminology
Hey Ted, could you give your comments considering this issue here? (I'll even hand out free chocolate! ;) Surely you can't resist that...^^) It's about  standardizing terminology usage in Tolkien articles, so it's crucial and a consensus is needed.  Thanks! — Mir   l   e   n   05:01, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

About 2Pac's "I Ain't Mad At Cha" video
It was very common for 2Pac to rewrite the explicit words on his singles that appeared on the radio. Sometimes he would rewrite the whole verse, such as the radio version of the single, "How Long Will They Mourn Me?" off his ThugLife album. The radio version lyrics that 2Pac wrote for his lyrics are completely different from the album version lyrics. Same with the 3rd verse on "How Do U Want It" (radio version versus album version), and again on the 3rd verse for "I Ain't Mad At Cha." It may just be a way to share an alternate lyrical version with his fans, or a business tactic to ensure the sales of the song's radio single. Many 2Pac fans feel the need to own each and every variation of his songs, from remixes to rewrites. It's a smart move...

Blocked for 3RR violation
You have been temporarily blocked for violation of the three revert rule in regard to the article Doctor's Advocate. Other users in violation have also been blocked. The timing of this block is coincidental, and does not represent an endorsement of the current article revision. Please feel free to return after the block expires, but also please make an effort to discuss your changes further in the future on the article's talk page (Talk:Doctor's Advocate). The length of the block is 24 hours. --Ginkgo100 talk · e@ 21:04, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

--unblock|I did not revert any page more then 3 times in 24 hours and I challenge anyone to find and incident were I did. I requested someone else be blocked from because of the three revert rule see here and we both end up being blocked--

Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/3RR


 * Hmmm, looking at the edits made I find the following:


 * 1) Unknown intent
 * 2) Clear vandalism revert
 * 3) Unknown intent
 * 4) Clear vandalism revert
 * 5) Unknown intent
 * 6) Ordinary edit


 * If one was to not assume good faith on your part, then the "unknown intent" edits plus the reversionary aspects of the last edit would suggest a 3RR block. But Wikipedia is founded upon assuming good faith. Therefore I will lift the block now and square it with the blocker after. But please remember that three reverts is a maximum, not an entitlement. If you find yourself getting close to three other than with plain ordinary vandalism then it's time to walk away. Cheers! ➨  ЯEDVERS  21:55, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

Doctor's Advocate
Hey Ted87,

Just leaving you a message to say that I'm constantly searching for new information regarding the Doctor's Advocate. What has really bothered me is that the album has not been added on billboard after more than a week of being released in the U.S. Have you found anything new or do you know anything about the album's sales and billboard chart position?

Don't forget to subst: templates!
Hi,

When using certain template tags on talk pages, don't forget to substitute with text by adding subst: to the template tag. For example, use &#123;&#123;subst:test&#125;&#125; instead of &#123;{test}}. This reduces server load and prevents accidental blanking of the template.

Thanks! :)

Looks like it was someone from my work editing pages in Wikipedia, I have sent them a stern email about it :D

Don't reply to this though, chances are someone else will get to it before I see it again.

Amaru Entertainment is the company that now owns the rights to the album and the albums are under their label. License2Kill 22:23, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

Rather then explaining it on all 4 albums pages I think it would be better to just explain it on the page for Amaru Entertainment. License2Kill 23:40, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

in re Monroe Discussion Page
I don't know if you were the one who left a message for me on the Marilyn Monroe Discussion page; the entry was unsigned; not even the IP address was left which is odd as I thought that was automatic. If you aren't the one who did so, pls ignore.

If you did, I don't know why I haven't rec'd any communications from you.

To be perfectly honest with you, I do not have that big an interest in Monroe. I only wish her body type were more the norm in today's Hollywood; it would be a lot healthier. I even heard my 7 year saying that "fat is bad."

In any event, I posted the article for the benefit of those who are interested in Monroe. And if someone else thought it warranted inclusion in the article, to give them a place to start.

Again, I apologize if it appeared I was ignoring you. I noticed a message on my own Talk Page that didn't pop up when I logged in.

You might consider adding a section about this apparently unauthorized memorabilia, tour thing that you added in the discussion page. No one seems to have objected and the article could certainly stand some improvement.

Have to see if I can figure out what's going on.
